Included in the scheme are scout groups in Holland, France, Norway, Belgium; Denmark, Luxembourg. Poland, Switzerland, the United States, Sweden, Greece, Iraq, Italy. Liechtenstein, Czecho-Slovakis and Austria. There are still 100 groups overseas waiting to be put in touch with British scout groups. French scout authorities, Czecho-Slovakian and Danish, in particular, are

still sending in applications.

Scouting began in Britain, but it has always welcomed brothers in other lands, and it is hoped that in this way boys all over the world will grow up knowing those of other lands, with friendly feelings for them. Meanwhile, scouts in Britain enjoy "meeting" their new pen friends.
