[英文] 童子軍籌募呼籲

Boy Scout Appeal.

The universal interest aroused by Sir Robert Baden-Powell's appeal for £250,000 as an endowment fund for the Boy Scout movement is shown by the promises of help which have been received. In the City special committees have been formed at Lloyd's, the Stock Exchange, and among the leading bankers to stimulate the collection of subscriptions, while similar committees are in process of formation in connection with other City institutions, in the large provincial cities, and in several of the counties. The City Companies are giving liberal support to the scheme. Public School boys are taking a part in the work, and the Chief Scout will address several meetings at the schools. An Eton boy has sent a subscription of £1 from his pocket money. Subscriptions have been received from natives of Italy, France, Germany, and the United States. The gifts from the general public include many shillings and several sixpences.
