Join who's neighborly inclined. The
purpose is simply to enjoy good

know one another better.
Every other Saturday, at one
farm or another, the pit is dug,
and the fir started. And by sun
down, neighbors from miles around
have come together the women
contributing cakes, pies, and coffee,
the men contributing the meat for
barbecuing, and the beer or ale.
From where I sit, it's this simple
wholesome side of country life in
America its spirit of good-fellowshipthat
makes for tolerance
and better understanding between
neighbors.
As I say, Neighbor, any one can
join up! So come along a week

State accident records, he said,
show that the principal causes of
higher winter accident rates are
poor visibility and inadequate
traction.
To maintain visibility," New-
bry emphasized, "the motorist
must, in addition to having good
lights, be certain that windshield
wipers and defrosters are work
ing properly. You must see a haz
ard to avoid it."
As aids to good traction on wet
and slippery pavements, he ad
vised that tires be well-mated,
with good treads, and that brakes
be equalized to prevent unnec
essary skidding.

Girl Scout Troop
No. 1 Has Busy
Time In October
Girl Scout Troop No. 1 has been
very busy during the month of
October. This group is helping
carry out the national project of
collecting clothes for friendship.
Between December 1, 1A47, and
December 1, 1948, the Girl Scouts
of the United States of America
will be sending 100,000 children's
clothing kits abroad. Each kit
will contain one complete outfit
for a child. If anyone has cloth
ing which they wish to contribute
the girls will gladly call for it.
The troop has chosen the "Pine
Cone" as their troop emblem.
Three girls have transferred from
Portland Scout troops. They are
Beverly Blodgett, Nancy Blodgett
and Margaret Bristow.
On October 25 the girls enjoy
ed a Hallowe'en party. They came
in costume and played many of
the traditional games. The room
was decorated with many pump
kins and jack-o-lanterns. Joanne
Keithley and Nancy Anderson
fashioned a large pumpkin into
a lady jack-o-lantern with wood
shaving curls and a very perky
hat. She centered the table from
which doughnuts and cider were
served.
National Girl Scout week be
gins October 31. The girls will
honor their founder, Juliet Low,
on this anniversary of her birth
by attending the Church of Christ
in a body with members of Troops
2 and 3.
Juliet Low is being honored
nationally by having a commem
orative stamp picturing her being
issued by the United States post-
office department on October 29.
There have been only a few com
memorative stamps issued in
honor of women and it is a signal
honor to Juliet Low and the na
tion-wide movement she founded
that one should be dedicated to
her.
The entire Ted Malone show of
Thursday, November 4, will be a
tribute to Girl Scouting and will
include a big appeal for more

er of a Brownie daughter. This
