The Kinship of the Kibbo Kift??? ‘Used to be,’ he muttered. ‘Used to be a Cub.’ It was not a topic he wished to explore with her but it was actually impossible for him to lie, as if a spell had been put on him at birth. Both his sisters – and even Nancy – could lie beautifully if necessary, and Maurice and truth (or Truth) were poorly acquainted, but Teddy was deplorably honest. ‘Did you get kicked out of the Scouts?’ Izzie asked eagerly. ‘Cashiered? Was there some terrible scandal?’ ‘Of course not.’ ‘Do tell. What happened?’ The Kinship of the Kibbo Kift happened, Teddy thought. He would probably have to spend hours explaining to Izzie if he so much as mentioned the words. ‘Kibbo Kift?’ she said. ‘It sounds like the name of a clown.’ I would like to know what does "The Kinship of the Kibbo Kift" here mean. Thanks.
