The Hong Kong Branch of the Boy Scouts Association is doing Its very best to spread its dne trino of brotherhood among the Hong Kong Scouts by sending a contingent of them to the Jame boreo where they will meet Scouts from the four corners of the World. This cannot be done unless an International Bureau or other give a generous donation uf say HK$10,000. If there is no Buch bureau twenty firms or kind souls can make up the difference by giving HK$300 each.
On the other hand many firms |will grab at the chance to use the Scouts as publicity agents in Aus- trolla that is it they can and I ask why not? Do you want more passengers? Well let the scouts ride free or half-price on your
