KENYA

CHIEF SCOUT PLANS FOR REST

Nairobi.

   Lord and Lady Baden Powell spent their joint birthday today at the holiday resort of Nyeri. The Chief Scout began building a cottage with a fine view of the snow clad Mt. Kenya. He proposes to convalesce here after his attack of bronchitis.
   Lord Baden Powell is 81, and his doctors have advised him that a year's rest is essential owing to his heart being "tired." He is likely to spend at least some months in Kenya. He is still cheery and in high spirits.
