* Mr. Pierre Jouy:

Pierre Fouy was involved in Scouting as Boy Scout in 1940 in France. Their uniform consisted of shorts, or pants, green shirt, scarf and hat, They learned about nature, bugs, first aid and lashings. Now we use campstoves to cook on, then it was cooking over a campfire.

They were sponsored by the Church, attended Scouts once a month and there was much more discipline then than now.

He went from Scouts to Rovers. They went to camp with one or two troops and only wore their uniforms to Scout meetings. He finds that lots of his badge work has helped him throughout his life.

He remembers he attended a World Jamboree camp in 1949 near Paris, France.

Mr, Jouy was a leader in Terrace from 1955 -1959 but is no longer involved in Scouting.

Scouter Ashley Tait listans as Mr. Noel Marte! recounts his Scouting experiences.

“Mr. Noel Martel:

In 1945 Noel Martel joined the Scouting movement in Ter- . Tace as acub.

His uniform consisted of shorts, a wool sweater, a cub cap “‘beanie’', green wool socks, a neckerchief, and a leather woggle,

Noel stayed for a year and is not currently involved with the scouting. He still is living in Terrace and has friends that were

. in cubs with him that are living in Terrace, .

His favourite memory was of a camp that he attended by Oli’s Place, he and his cub pack hiked to the hotsprings which were natural and manmade pools of heated water.

Badges were few back then and one of the badges that he remembered earning was a badge for knots.

Since it was wartime they learned to march and were in- fluenced by the 5,000 soldiers compared to the 500 civilians occupying the Terrace area.

Angela Smith listens with Interest as Mrs. Eileen Frank shares some memories of her days in the Scout/Guide movement.

Mrs. Eileen Frank:

Mrs. Eileen Frank was a girl guide 65 years ago in Calgary. Her dress was made from heavy serge material, it had decora- tion pockets and she had a wide brimmed hat-similar to an

_ RCMP hat. She also had long black knee socks. Instead of sewing her badges onto a badge scarf, she sewed them onto her sleeves like Brownies.

Some of the badge she earned are cooking, campfire, track- ing, knotting and she had two Favourites, knotting and darn- ing. .

One of her favourite memories is camping. Although she always wanted to go on a world jamboree she was always hap<

ys . . Mes. Frank thinks that today's youth is more involved in guiding and scouting. She also thinks that. guiding and - scouting is more fun and that there is more to do. But she still smiles upon those childhood memories of when she was a girl guide. Interviewed by Angela Smith
