On my honour, I promise that I will do my best;
To do my duty to God and my Country.
To help other people at all times,
To keep the Scout Law.
The Order of World Scouts was founded on the 11th November
1911, and was the earliest World Scouting organisation.
The date was chosen to echo the declaration of Baldwin as
King of Jerusalem, concluding a successful end to the first
Crusade, 11th November 1100.
The organisation still continues today, and has continued
under its Grand Scoutmasters.

Book to
be published.
If
sufficient people are interested, a book will be published
covering the whole history of The British Boy Scouts, and
the Order of World Scouts. Included in the text are details
on dozens of other organisations which were connected with
scouting (Woodcraft Folk, The Order of Woodcraft Chivalry,
Kibbo Kift, Life Pioneers, British Scout Federation,
British Pathfinder Scouts Association, the Outlanders,
Federation of European Scouts UK Association, Baden-Powell
Scouts Association, along with more details of the other
organisations mentioned above) Details of the 1919 Court
Case in New York over the United States Boy Scouts, the
British Chartered Associations (Protection of Names and
Uniforms) Act 1926, which was sponsored by friends of the
Boy Scouts Association, and took 5 years to get through
Parliament are included. The 1926 Act has been used
recently against an FSE group in England - details in the
text. If sufficient folk order a book (no payments are
required yet), it will be published. If not a photocopied
version will be available. Details E.Mailed on request. An
earlier version was published in 1987, which was used by
Time Jeal in the research for his biography, but the work
has grown too large for the BBS to publish the book itself
(76,277 words plus dozens of photographs and illustrations)
without guaranteed sales. Advanced Orders will allow a
professional product -hard covers, dust jacket.
