WOLF CUBS’ CORNER.

As It Is only a short camp you do not need a big kit, but you must have a complete change or clothes in case you get wet. ■ This can be an old older the better, then It does not much matter if It gets damaged while knocking about camp. Of course, you must 'have a change of socks and shoes. It Is not wise to run about

camp bare-foot—-.too many cut feet Each Cub will take a complete outfit of toilet articles —brush, comb, towel, soap, toothbrush, etc. Two blankets are needed; the nights get cold, and if everything Is complete uniform, a knife, fork, spoon, cup and two plates, you are all complete, though a waterproof sheet is a good Thing to take. You ask, what are you to sleep on? well, that’s where camp gadgets come in. Get your “Akela" to show you how to make a camp loom, and how to use It; and with the fern or small branches you can get at camp, you can make your own mattress. A few small twigs will make lots of things In camp—candlesticks, toasting rork, camp seats, etc. There is no need to bo uncomfortable In camp; make what you need for comfort. Yours Cubblly, , “AKELA.” A l/ISIT TO CAMBRIDGE. I T Last Saturday three car loads of Cubs lert Hamilton at 2 p.m. Tor a visit to the Cambridge Pack.. The party was made up of St. George’s and Claudeland3 Packs. Akela Koosak, Scouter Lewiss and the A.D.C., not forgetting “Miss Errort,” who carried a big load of Cubs without a groan.

Here photos were taken of the whole group, On returning to the hut the local Pack entertained the visitors to afternoon tea, to which Tull Justice was done. Before departing for home Scouter Lewiss on behalf of the visitors thanked the Cambridge Pack tar , the fine time. Akela Fletcher In replying expressed the hope that the visit would be repeated at an early date. A happy party or Cubs it was that boarded *’Mlss Effort" for the return Journey, and to every motorist and other traveller on the road gave a hearty cheer which brought many a cheery smile and wave. There must be quite a number of budding Malcolm Campbells among the Hamilton Cubs, Judging by the repeated reauests for speed, which were not complied with. The vote of all was; "A stunner day’s outing.” When Is the next.
