[Announcer] Everyone is delghted that Lord Baden-Powell is well again. [Lord Baden-Powell] I suppose you all know about the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides. You'll see plenty of them here in England, but there are a great many more about the world. I've got the numbers here, I never can remember them. 3,474,414 and if you chap in the corner joins, that'll make 3,474,415. These large numbers about the world, necessitated the chief guide and myself doing a good bit of traveling, and this next month we're off on another tour, to visit Australia, because in that country they've got a jamboree this year. But I think it will appeal to all of you here present, to know that we're not merely going to look at the boys and see them play their games, we are going about the world to these different countries to try and induce them to take up that spirit of brotherhood and good feeling one for another, and that has been very largely taken up now by the Boy Scouts.
