The third universal congress of Esperanto was held in 1907 in Cambridge, England. It is probable that Lord Baden-Powell was aware of the proceedings. After the first Scout camp which at [[Brownsea Island Scout camp|Brownsea]] later that year, William Alexander Smith, the founder of the [[Boy's Brigade]] asked Baden-Powell to write a work which would be called ''[[Scouting for Boys]]'' covering the method in which Scouting could be adapted to youth. This work appeared in the form of six small booklets, published every two weeks. The first of the series appeared on January 15, 1908 and the series had so much success that in May of the same year, the set was published in the form of a unified book. In the third book of the series, Baden-Powell advised the Scouts as recourse to use the international language Esperanto as a "secret language of the patrol". The passage in question disappeared in later editions, however one could read on page 202 of ''Scouting for Boys'', in the original version: | The third universal congress of Esperanto was held in 1907 in Cambridge, England.

A.W. Thompson became president of the League of Esperanto-speaking Scouts, and his brother K. Graham Thompson the Secretary of Honor. Thereafter, Norman Booth, another British [[Scoutmaster]] became secretary-general of honor and seceded with treasurer [[D.H. David]] to organize the '''Skolta Esperanto Ligo''' (SEL). This new association organized multiple international Scout camps to achieve its goals and to test the use of Esperanto in Scouting: in 1922 in the Netherlands, 1923 in Belgium, 1924 in Denmark, 1925 in Spain, 1926 in Czechoslovakia (there were even radio broadcasts in Prague about Scouting in Esperanto), 1927 in Spain, 1928 in Belgium, 1929 during the [[World Jamboree]] in England, 1930 in the Netherlands, a camp in which participated a SEL member, Harold Wilson, who would become English Prime Minister from 1964 to 1970 and again from 1974 to 1976). Almost 100 Esperanto speaking Scouts from 18 countries, as far away as Japan, took part in the 1929 World Jamboree in Birkenhead. | A.W.
