Scoutmaster 1. S. Lackey, who he | been in charge of the local troop of Boy Scouts, has resigned his post. Mr. Lackey been scoutmaster for about a year and succeeded Scoutma ter Bonney, who helped to form the Scouts. The reason given for his resi nation is not very clear, excepting th: Mr. Lackey feels that he has been un- justly treated by the Scouts and he been unable to control the troop fQr the past few months. The troop differs in the reason given far resignation by saying that they were forced to do il the work and had no head for the troop. It is possible that Mr. Lackey will take Troop 4 of New Britain. Mr. Lackey fecls that he will be able to care for the New Britain troop much better and improve the troop more than he ever could the local troop. Mr. Lackey handed his resignation in a few days ago to Scoutmaster Johnson, of the New Britain council, who came to Plainville last evening and made the announcement to the Plainville troop that he was looking for a scout- master who will take Mr. Lackey's post. Faor the time being, Rov Acr who has been the assistant scoutmas ter for the past two vears, will have charge of the troop.
