FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1939- 1940 W inter Term, 1939: XYith the beginning of the School year P. Black became Senior Patrol Leader. New recruits were enrolled, and several senior scouts, notably Currie, Mappin and Tees, commenced attending the Junior Section meetings as well as their own meetings, giving generous assistance in teaching recruits and younger scouts. The Troop was organ- ized as follows, with forty-nine members: Cougzzry P.L. BLACK 2nd CURRIE BovEY PENFIELD G. XYHITE HOXYIS GIBLIX Bzdfaloef P.L. SUTHERLAND CAMPBELL P.

SHORE Y BIAGOR The Scoutmaster offered the assistance of the Troop in whatever War service the Boy Scout Association might require us to do. So far there has not been much opport- unity to be of use, but it is likely that as time goes on the Scouts will be able to perform real service. Scouts Vass and Day performed creditably at the annual Central District Swimming Meet, held in the Montreal High School Tank, in December. l9l

SEIAYYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE Wie are again indebted to the kindness of the Rev. David Scott and Knox Crescent Church for the use of the Sunday School Hall for meetings during the month before Christ- mas, when the hall at Headquarters was occupied by the Scout Toy Shop. Eaflfr Term, 19101: In January, a gift of X-ray photographic equipment was presented to the Children's Memorial Hospital by the Boy Scout Association. Scout Mappin of our Troop represented the Scouts of the Central District at the presentation ceremony. A hockey team representing the Troop played a team from St.George's Church Troop in February. Although our Scouts played hard, they were outclassed by a very fine team. Patrol Leaders Black, Mappin and Dobell have passed those parts ofthe Sphinx Patrol course given so far this year. This course, given by Scout Headquarters, is devoted to training in leadership for Patrol Leaders. A feature of the Troop activities this year has been the large number of proficiency badges won, a larger number than for several years past. W. S. G. The Ski muh. During the Christmas holidays The Selwyn House Ski Club at Ste. Adele opened for its second season. The club's accommodation has been greatly increased by the instal- lation of bunks in the dormitory upstairs. The members this year are: Tim Blaiklock, Bill Mason, Peter Dobell, Hilary Big- nell, Gavin Miller, and John Chipman. Dick Cvoldbloom and David Culver, who now go to Lower Canada, are also members. Several old boys came up to the club for a few days during the Christmas holidays. These were Bill Fleming, Brian Little, Eddie Ballon, and Bart Sutherland. Mlle. Des- jardins still produces excellent meals, and does much to keep the club tidy. XY. NI., Form 6. ll0l
