Commissioner Gives Interesting Chatty Address to Members of Hotary Club William Solway, Boy Scout commissioner for British Columbia, who spoke to the Rotary Club Thursday at Its regular weekly luncheon, has been thirty-five years at scout work, ten years of which was In England and the remainder In Canada. He met Dean Gibson on the prairies soon after his arrival in Canada. He told about building his first cabin eight feet square in which he and his wife lived for a time. Reminiscing on the beginning of the movement, Mr. Solway said General Baden-Powell started It In 1907 and he was taught by his father. Mr. Solway's father said he taught Baden-Powell's father so the family was closely tied up with the work at a very early date. The first troop was formed with! the Idea of bringing together on aj common basis the various classes j In the Old Country. The Idea took held Immediately and In 1928 sixty thousand Scoute took part In the first jamboree, spending two weeks' In camp. 1 ' The speaker said that scouting resembled Rotary to a great extent. The two had much In common, scouting being something of a junior service club. It was brought to the United 8tates-about the-samc, time that Rotary was started In 1910 j and he found that Scout backers' could always be found in Rotary.; Scouts were taught their duty to God and the Scout law which was to be helpful to the community. At' the head office in London only the. janitor was paid for his services.! The office was Just outside Buck-j Ingham Palace gates and the King i was the highest official next to the ; chief scout. The office in Ottawa was given j them by John R. Booth, the lum-! ' berman, and each province had its I head office, usually with a man on j j the road and a girl In the office. I The life of a Boy Scout was usually about six years and during the later. years attention was centred on finding the right vocation in life. In Canada no scout was ever in the juvenile court after he had secured his second class badge. In Vancouver the Rotary Club sponsored a number of boys from the various institutions which looked after wayward youths and they went In to camp with the other scouts, no - ..v ..wo ijamibuiui one exci.pi, iiuiiacii miuvwhs w.i.v. nni ... . rw v.a positions Ol uaciui".
