As the r 14th annual national Christmas Grod Turn, a coast-to-coast chain of Scout- Guide Toy shops once again provided Old Santa with approximately 100,- 000 toys, dolls and story books, re- conditioned and practically as good as new, and many thousands of new wooden toys and soft dolls prouuced in Scout toy plants and Guide studii-a. In many centres the Scouts and Guides had the co-operat'on of mov- ing picture theatre managers, who gave Saturday momingr Toy " Shop Matmees, at an admission price of one toy. Local distribution of gifts was made m association with service clubs, tfie Salvation Army and other welfare organizations. The special Scout-Guide effort this season was the bulk shipment from toy shops in the other provinces to Saskatchewan, to assist the Saskat- chewan Scouts in '[f-ing their part toward providing gifts for the ap- proximate 50,000 children of "Santa Claus" age who otherw se would have been missed. For this work the Scout Association divided Saskatche- wan tntc eight toy distributior areas, and the toy shipments were allotted these areas as called for. The shipments were provided by the toy shops at Sherbrooke, Mont- real, Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, London, Winnipeg and Calgary. The Scouts of Medicine Hat, in the dry area of southeastern Alberta, were helped in meeting their demands by the Scouts of Calgary, Cardston and Kimberley and Powell River, B.C. Details of the heroic first aid and other relief work done by Chinese Boy Scouts at Shanghai and other Chinese cities bombed by the Japan- ese have been hinted at in press de- spatches and news reels. The Inter- nation.'l Scout Bureau in London re- ports more fully as follows: Despite the grave danger of con- tinued bombing in and around Shang- hai, Chinese Boy Scouts carried out their Scout obligation to "help other people at all times." Their services in the hospitals and other places can be looked upon as nothing less than hero c, and under the inevitable dan- ger they stiir persist ir carrying on. Immediately after high explosives had been dropped on Shanghai, young Scouts began searching for the dead, dressing the slightly injured with bandages improvised from blood-spat- tered piles of material, and actng as stretcher bearers. One of these young boys performed a task from which many a grown man would have shrunk. A lift in a buildfrg had been hr>lted between the ground and first floors as the ex- plosion cut off power. Blood stream- ed from the cage, the door of v.-bich had boon pavtiall.v opened by some injured person before death had in- tervened. A ladder was run up to the ca'.;e, but the opening wa."! too small for an adult. .-V Scout went up, hesitated before what he saw. then threw down a pith helmet filled with blood, and performed the gruesome task of removing the dead. An early »iorn ng benbing raid, raining deaah on Per-hsin-ching vil- lage for twenty minutes was another scene described in which Boy Scouts, police and other workers rushed to rescue the wounded. The destruction covered a wide area, and up to a late hour scores of volunteers â- were still busily engaged in extricating bod es pis'.ned beneath the debris. Simultaneously, bombing was going on in Chowkachiao in the Jessfield district, and many civilians were killed. Shortly after the raid every available fireman, policeman and Boy The Age of Talk U. is one of the tragedies of the postwar era that we have had much talk and little action. Conferences which should have been the prelude to more decisive policies hare euded in the futility of many words. We have discussed economic difflcultles. the problems of war and peace and the menace of rearmament. Our fears have uow become facts; economic sel- fishness has run riot and the threat ot" war is upon us. The conference meth- od ot luternatlonal diplomacy has failed because nations lacked the will to turn their words Into actions. APPETITEganc?

Roy Scouts, together with Gfa-l Guides, also are helping in refugee camps, and atending the wounded soldiers in emergtiicy hospitals. Officials of ths French Concession Service Sanitaire found Scouts a-:- tremely usefnJ, while st'll other Scouts were called upon to help look after the criw;!a of frightened re- fugee children. When a group of iournalists were being, shown through tho hospitals in the Chinese territory, and were taken to the Vienna Garden, a dancing_hall turned into an emergency hospital, they discovered more Boy Scouts at- tending the wounded. Indian Rights Being Defended If those who write hunting laws made new year's resolution, Philip H. Godsell. Fellow of the Royal Geo- graphic Society and author, hopes they remembered the forgotten red man whose hunting grounds are slow- ly being robbed by the white brother with his Ingenious ways of earning a dollar. The tall, broad-shouldered wanderer of Canada's frozen frontier who came to the Dominion from England thirty- years ago because he wanted a war bonnet and peace-pipe, today scanned records ot northern experience and found one Jarring note in songs he could sing of those who live in Cab land of the snows. .A.nd. the white- man's airplane hummed the most dis- turbing tune. Qodsell said faith has not been kept by those who signed the treat.# with the Indian and swore hunting and fishing would be tor aa long "as the water* ran and the sun shone." Through numerous hunting licenses given to white trappers the Indian is steadily being pushed Into low mor- ale, poor health and impoverishment. Godsell. who has trekked from Labra- dor to Alaska and' learned to speak six native dialects, declared. Now Destitute "I know of Indian families thirlj- years ago who took pride iu their ability to derive a living ft-om forests and the stream and be as they thought independent of white men," Godsell said. "Today, I've seen those same families brought to utter destitution by Inroads of white trappers and de- pletion of areas In which they hunt- ed." Godsell explained the 50,000 Indian men, women and children up north had 15,000 bread-winners whoae prim- itive mode of hunting could not match the white man's mechanical bird nor his other tricks ot obtaining a living from animals of northern woods and the B^-lined streams. One of theso "diabolical" tricks in trade was ui^e of poison.
