Another pioneer was a physical education teacher from Gothenburg, Eble Lieberath. He wanted to start some form Of Youth activity for his pupils and found Baden-Powell's book "Scouting for boys" whilst traveling. He later translated it into Swedish. Two years later activities were commenced for girls as well. In 1912 the first Boy Scout association was formed and in 1913 the first Girl Guide association Popular movements such as The Temperance Movement and Revival Movements were a very important part of Swedish society in those days. They fought for better spiritual and social conditions for theirs members. They were people who had united to create something better in the current society. It was therefor, natural that these already existing youth movements such as the Temperance Movement, the YWCA and the YMCA took up scouting and guiding as part of their program, as well -as other scout associations being formed.

Extractions: Welcome to the town of On July 23, 1870, a Swedish Colony was established by the State of Maine in the virgin forest of Aroostook County. Maine had appointed William Widgery Thomas, Jr. (who had served as Lincoln's Civil War Consul in Sweden) as State Immigration Commissioner. He went to Sweden, recruited the first 51 immigrants, and led them into the township that became New Sweden. Early hardships were overcome and the Colony prospered and grew into the neighboring townships of Westmanland (1879, Stockholm (1881) and the surrounding areas. MAINE'S SWEDISH COLONY has prepared this booklet to provide you with both an historical perspective on the Colony area, and a map-oriented tour guide to historical and current points of interest. After a brief introduction as to how the Colony came to be, the contents are organized by townships involved: New Sweden, Stockholm, Woodland (and Perham, Connor, Caribou) Westmanland and Madawaska Lake (T16R4). For each, there is an early history followed by what exists today. The booklet also contains many old (nostalgic) and new photographs.
