Abbotsford Wolf Cubs
Have Four Patrols

The Pack was organized on May 19
by Cub-master -Snashall, of the 4th
Vancouver (Pathfinder) Pack, and the
first meting was spent in explaining
the meaning of ‘‘ Wolf Cub’’ to nine-
teen prospective ‘‘Cubs.’’ A Wolf Cub
is a junior scout. The name Wolf Cub
was-chosen because a small boy likes
to make-believe, and Wolf appealed to
his imagination. The Cub program en-
ables him to ‘‘make believe’’ for an
object, and that object is good citizen-
ship.

The programme carries the boy
through twelve subjects of study, for
excellency in which Proficiency Badges
are awarded. These are granted under
the heads of: character, handicraft,
including elementary first aid.

To date twenty-five boys have been
enrolled, which is all the Pack can
handle for the present.

The following boys passed their “Ten-
derfoot Tests’? on Monday June 2nd.:
G. Thornthwaite, T. Irvine, F. Brown,
B. Hill, J. Trethewey, B. Webster, B.
Spring, L. Bailey, @. MeGowan, F.
White, and on June 9th these boys
will be sworn in as real Wolf Cubs.
The Pack is split up into patrols, or
‘*sixes’’, of which there are four. The
leaders with the names of their pat-
trols are: Silver Wolves, R. Webster;
Grey Wolves, G. McGowan; White Wol-
ves, B. Spring; Red Wolves, J. Treth-
ewey. R. Webster is Senior Sixer, or
Pack leader, and because of this was
sworn in on Monday tp make it pos-
sible for him to help with the cerem-
ony on June 9th.

Parents and friends of the boys are
cordially invited to be present at any
of the Pack meetings, which will be
held every Monday at 6,30 p.m. in St.
Matthew’s Parish Hall. The Cub pro-
gramme calls for a great deal of noise,
and if there is any doubt of the suc-
cess of such a programme, stand with-

in half a mile radius of the Parish Hall
any Monday evening.
