- Photograph of Boy Scouts unloading old paper from a truck.
Caption from St. Thomas Times-Journal, April 25, 1953, page thirteen: “Boy Scouts Turn “Paper Boys” in Drive.”
1_233: “It not only rained raindrops Saturday morning, but it rained paper up around Swift’s coal yard where load after load of old paper was brought in during the Boy Scout paper drive. Every Scout group in the city worked like beavers as the proceeds of the drive are to help pay for a kitchen building on the Port Talbot camp site. Here District Commissioner Charles Johnson (front centre) pitches in to help Scouts and Wolf Cubs stack paper that is unloaded in a shed at the yard. The picture, taken in mid-morning, shows only a portion of what was being collected. It will be trans-shipped to Brantford by a firm that can make use of it.”

The hounds followed the drag or artificial scent on the course over the picturesque Talbot Creek valley. The event is held as close as possible to October 25, commemorating the signaling of the order of the ill-fated charge of the Light Brigade back in 1854 during the Cimean War. The document was signed by a nephew of Colonel Thomas Talbot." (2b)
