The Chief Scout, Lord Baden-Pow-ell, and Lady Powell arrived in Melbourne today for the opening of the jamboree. In a special message Lord BadenPowell said: “I am mighty glad to be here in time for the opening of the jamboree and to welcome all the scouts from the many different countries they represent. I hope they will all realise that the jamboree is not merely held for them to come and stare at each other and criticise one another’s dress and appearance, but that they may hold out the left hand of scouting to each and . every scout and make real friends, , not acquaintances.” The jamboree will be opened ,on Saturday with a national educational pageantry and a grand march-past of all the scouts. The jamboree will be continued until January 13.
