OUR ST. GEORGE’S DAY PARADE
H.E. The Governor’s Speech:
The Commissioner, The President, Scouts and Cubs-
I have a message for you from the Chief Scout. It reads as follows:-
“I send warmest St. George’s Day greetings to all Scouts. Let us take new courage to fight against the evil things that are abroad in the world to-day”.
I have just presented to Group Scoutmaster Raymond Yue the Gilt Cross for Gallantry. We are all very proud of him. Many of you I know would have acted in exactly the same brave manner as he did had you been situated in similar circumstances, therefore you all of you share in the honour that has been paid to him.
During the past year the Scouts of Hong Kong have acquitted themselves well. It has been a year in which alas there have been many fires, the most serious being the Wing On Fire. In all cases the Scouts have given most valuable and useful service. But at the same time you have given equally good service on more hum-drum occasions such as the Trade Fair at Kowloon when a number of you assisted in controlling the crowds. It always gives me great pleasure to see the Scouts on these occasions, particularly as they look so smart and scoutlike.
The fundamental thought in all Scouts should be the desire to help one’s fellow men. That thought is developed by the character training that you get in the Scout organization, but the thought itself is not enough, for you must also be able to put that thought into practice and that is where your practical training comes in. To give an instance of what I mean. There may be some unfortunate person unable to swim who has fallen into the sea. You want to save him but unless you know how to do so the best thought in the world will be of little avail. You should therefore not neglect your training.
The past year has shown that you are of good character and that you have benefitted by your practical training. I am proud of being your Patron and Chief Scout. Keep up the good work.
聖佐治日會操
港督致詞
總監，會長，列位童軍及小狼同志：從你們的總領袖羅雲禮爵士給我關於聖佐治日的賀函，內中有這樣的說過：「在紀念聖佐治的典禮中，本人謹以萬二分的熱誠向你們祝賀，讓我們鼓起新的勇氣，和今日世界上一切黑暗的事物奮鬥」。
一刻前，我曾頒給英勇十字章與余子洲旅長，以酬謝他的義勇行為，相信你們假如是站在同一的處境裏，一定有同樣的英勇事蹟，因此，他的受獎，你們與有榮焉。
過去的十二個月裏，本港童軍確能克盡厥職，在去年不幸發生許多火警，而尤以永安貨倉一次為甚，在一切的火警中，你們對當局都有極可貴及有用的協助，同時，在很多場合裏的服務，例如在九龍舉行之國貨展覽會，場內觀眾秩序之維持，你們都獲得最好的成績，在此等場面中，我能夠看到你們的敏捷和良好的童軍精神，深感愉快。
每個童軍應有的基本思想是隨時隨地，扶助他人，此種思想乃由童軍組織中所獲得的特殊訓練，可是，單有此思想，也屬不足，你們必需將它置於實施，此即為實際訓練的原由，例如，有人不諳游泳而墜水，你欲施以援手，除非先識得如何施救辦法，否則世界上最佳之思想亦覺無能為力。
去年，你們經已表現良好的品格，同時你們亦已受實際訓練之益，我能夠做到你們的贊助人及總領袖，深感無限的光榮，永遠保持這良好的工作吧！
