Girl Scout Notes
Brownie Scouts, under direc
tion of Mrs. John Ginther, were
busy before the holidays, earning
funds for their troop activities
by selling Christmas cards to
their friends and neighbors. The
cards were sold everywhere in
the nation as an officially-ap
proved means of making money
to carry on scout work.
Each ten boxes ordered for
sale earned a one-year subscrip-

Others getting subscriptions

sales: Marjorie Darger, Jerrie
Lee Cagley, Anna Lee Ettinger
and Diane Ginther.
Other Brownies selling cards
were Marilyn Brown, Judith C ar-
ter, Diane LaBrook, Arlene Bo
len and Alice Smith.
Before Christmas each girl
made leather articles during the
troop meetings. Most of these
were coin holders, some key
cases and billfolds.
Mrs. Ginther will not be able
to continue leadership of the
Brownies after the first of the
year. The committee is anxious
to contact any and all adults in
terested in girls of Brownie age,
7 to 10 years. If you know of
anyone who could give of her
time for this worthwhile proj
ect, please give her name to the
chairman, Mrs. Warren Smith,
or any on the committee.
Scouts meet one hour a week
in the afternoon. They have been
meeting at the grade school, but
now that the VFW building is
ready for use, that place is also
available. The VFW Auxiliary is
sponsoring organization for the
Girl Scouts in the area. If some
one could not take leadership,
perhaps she or he could assist
or even give some help on spe
cial projects. To date few have
expressed an interest in this age
group, but none have signed on
the dotted line.
