THE DOMINION SCOUT
Opening with a fine portrait of His late Majesty, King Edward VIL, the June number of that excellent little publication, “ The Dominion Scout,” contains a newsy budget of interesting matter, appropriate and up-to-date. The Boy Scout movement is firmly established all through New Zealand now, and the doings of the various corps occupy a prominent position in the journal, and help to bring a’l the districts within touch of one another. The subject of “ Our Portrait Gallery,” which is one of the features of the “ Scout,” is Inspector Horace Stebbing, chief scoutmaster of the Northcote Battalion, Mr. Stebbing having the distinction of erecting the first Boy Scout hall in the Dominion. Amongst the attractive features are the Scout yarn, “Condemned to Death,” “ How to Box,” by an exchampion of the world, “ While the Billv Boils,” a short story; prize comretitions, jokes, scrap-book, and a host of other good things interesting to scouts, young and old, not to mention “ Good Turns Done by Scouts.” The annual subscription to the “Dominion Scout” is merely nominal, Is Cd post free. Mr. C- A. Wilkins is the editor, sufficient proof of the high c-nndard of excellence characterising this journal.
