a lone scout, pushing a trolley" loaded with rice sacks, in his sincerest endeavours! He would probably prove himself a hindrance. If a scout thinks the opportunity to do | his good turn does not come his way, he can do no better than do it to his troop for his association -for his brotherhood. A chain is only as strong as the weakest link (as an observant scout remarked on the ferry) and if each indivi- dual scout sees to it that he is not the weakest link-there lies his opportunity to do his "good turn," by loyalty and adherence to the Scout Law.

Don't confuse "good turns" with duty there must be the sacrifice. The old argument comes in here: If when walking along the street you just pick into the gutter a banana skin, to prevent some un- fortunate slipping up--this is not a good turn-if on the other hand,

It is shown that these outcasts of society have impulses much the same as those of other classes of society with which they are at war, The result is a series of gripping situations which holds the interest of the audience from the first to the final word.
