(Picture by Paul Jenkins). The Roseburg Camp Fire Coun cil held its fifth annual meeting Monday evening, Jan. 14. The theme for the meeting was built around the past year's member ship slogan, 'Hold That Line." Mrs. Morris Bowker, Council presi dent, explained that the reason for having such a meeting was to re view the accomplishments of the past year and to set new objec tives for the coming year. The flag salute which opened the meeting was led by a repre sentative from each division of the Camp Fire program; Donna Frisk, Blue Bird; Stephanie Briggs, Camp Fire and Arlene Coffman, Horizon Club. The usual invocation was the Camp Fire Prayer sung by Cloyd Rfife's Cholrettes from the Methodist Churcn. This group is composed of Camp Fire Girls from several schools. The new Camp Fire film, "Go ing Places with Mary," was shown to acquaint guests with the prog ression of a girl through all phases of the program, Blue Bird, Camp Fire and Horizon Club. The report given by the Execu tive Director pointed out that this year Camp Fire has 85 volunteer leaders in the program. This in crease in leadership has enabled Camp Fire to not only "Hold that Line," but to expand in every school in the Roseburg council. It was also pointed out that through good program, girls re mained in Camp Fire for a longer period of time and that good pro grams came only from good leader training. Because the Camp Fire slogan is "Give Service," several girls explained different things done by groups here in Roseburg. Espe cially noted was the earning of the Needlework Guild Honor by' the A-o-wa-ki-ya group of St. Jo seph's school, the extensive work done by the same group at the County Home, the Highway patrol work done by Camp Fire Girls in Rose School; teaching in Bible School, child care in church and PTA nurseries, and the service to Camp Fire given by all girls who participated in the recent pea nut brittle sale and by those who served as counselors at summer camp. Miss Patricia Mayo gave an in teresting report on last summer's camping season and expressed the desire that many more girls would have the opportunity to camp this season. C. S. Collins told about the service the Lion's Club was contributing by building a coun selor's cabin at camp and about the new swimming pool which will be ready for this season. Mrs. James Conn, regional rep resentative, stressed the import ance of the volunteer group leader when she awarded three-year lead ership certificates to the following: Mrs. ArtKur Travis, Mrs. Walter Smith, Mrs. Sandy McDonald and Ruby Weaver. She also awarded the adult membership pins to the following; Rev. W. A. MacArthur for his yeari as i volunteer worker on the board, principally on Finance and Personnel com mittees; to Mrs. Tom Findlay for many years of work on the exten sion committee in securing group leaders; to Mrs. Morris Bowker for net untiring efforts in making the past year an outstanding one and to Mrs. 0. E. Amundson. The following officers were elec ted to serve for the coming year: Mrs. Tom Pargeter, president; Miss Patricia Mayo, first vice president; - Mrs. Gordon Stewart, second vice-president;- Mrs. Don Radabaugh, ' recotding s e c r e tary; Mrs. Dale Sail, correspond ing secretary: Mrs George Erick son, treasurer and Mrs. James Conn, regional representative. These officers were installed by Mrs. Harrie Booth. Mrs. Booth, two years ago received Camp Fire's highest award, the Gulick Award for her service to Camp f ire, in accepting the responsibit ilies for the new officers, Mrs, Pargeter asked for the continued friendship and cooperation of all in the program to help them fur ther help Camp Fire grow.

You have to show it to sell it. An in cessant search for means to dem onstrate the work and accomplish ments needs to be conducted.

Truman Budget Spells Big Tax Hike Next Year WASHINGTON - One of the Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee reported Friday they are practically solid in op posing another general tax increase this year. With the Republican minority lined up against a boost, Congress apparently has written off any pos sibility of favorable action on Pres ident Truman s request for approx imately five billion more tax dol lars. ' Under the Constitution, all reve nue legislation must originate in the House, and the Ways and Means group is in tne driver s seat. By all present indications, it will k? its foot on the brake and off tne starter Ways and Means Democrats held an informal conference at which sentiment was sounded out. The member who reported solidarity against an increase asked not to be quoted by name. I America's most spectacular geo graphy is contained in 28 National Parks.
