DR. W. M. BEVINGTON, Commissioner for the Boy Scout movement, has been active in re-organising and forming new troops in the Islands lately.

Native assistant scout masters are now taking on the work of the troops, in ad dition to the European scoutmasters.

The Commissioner hopes that he may be backed up in his efforts by the forma tion of a local council. There are a good many difficulties to be overcome, but the movement is one which should help con siderably in developing native character on good lines.
