SCOUTS CENTRAL POINT
CRNTRAIj POINT. Ore.. April
1. (Special) fJirl Scouts of Ccn
trat Point Troop No. -I0 celebrated
t h ei r fou rih a n n I vg rsa ry w 1 1 h a
banquet Friday n ht at the high
school.
Seventeen CJIrl Scouts, under the
leadership of I heir captain, pre
pared and served a. full hIx
coursf dinner in one hour. The
decorations of buttercup yellow
and daffodils added greatly lo
the beautifully set tables, which
the girls look great pride in ar-
ranging.
This i"' all -a part of Seouling
and will long be remembered as
the happiest parly ever held by
this troop.
The Girl Pcouts were grouped
around' the tables ue ording to
rank, tenderfoot, 2nd class and at
the head table, near their, cap
tain and the' five charter mem
bers who have become leaflet's in
this district.
During the dinner fllrl Scout
songs were sung and each girl was
called upon to tell what scouting
meant to her. The captain called
the roll of honor for each year
since they were started and gave
a short history ot tne uoop.
After the dinner a court of
- awards was held. Twenty-eight
mor.t badges were given out. Nine
Olrl Scouts received tenderfoot
badges and two second class.
Twenty-three Chi Scouts sent in
their fee of fOe to be registered
at national headquarters for an
other year, with their captain.
I.oomfs Davidson was voted first
lleutnnanft May Flcher. second
lieutenant.
These Olrl S.outs will he glad
lo answer any questions in re
gards to scouting and help all
Ciirl Scouts in (his troop.
"The Iron Mask" is the most art
istic of nil Douglas Fairbanks' pic
tures. Doug is In his most con
genial type of role, that of a swash
buckling swordsman, and moves
along at a merry rate over a suf
ficiently interesting plot down to
one ot the inspired endings of
screen history, rating with such
classical fadeouts as Charlie Chap
lin in "The Tramp" and Kmil Jan
nings in "The Way of All Flesh."
