Hawke Company Celebrates.
May was a month of anniversaries for the Hawke Sea Scouts, no less than six of its members celebrating birthdays. In addition, the Master Mr. A. J. Veart completed 21 years of scouting service. It was in May 1909, that Mr. Veart formed a patrol of scouts among his chums and they worked together for several months, later affiliating with the Ponsonby Troop. To celebrate all these anniversaries the Troop held a Pound Night last Tuesday, spending the evening in games and competitions, followed by supper. At the recent Badge night Missioner Badges were, gained by B. Wright, S. Wilshere and R. Clarke, the latter also gaining the Entertainer Badge. The examiner for the Missioner Badge commented on the high standard of proficiency shown by the boys. Last Sunday the Troop attended church parade at All Saints. Church.
