Mrs. Littlefleld has done much to
enrich the Girl Scout nature pro
gram both locally and nationally. Her
training as a leader was secured at
the national leaders camp, Brlerciirf
Manor, N. Y., and also at Foxlease,
the Girl guide training schol, Hamp
shire, England.
The Instinct for outdoor life which
everyone knows at some time Is as
natural as thirst and hunger, and
us easily satisfied. If one knows how,
according to Mrs. Littlefleld.
"Nature seems a miser." said she,
"to those who don't know her, but
actually a prodigal to those who do,
and the easiest way to know her la
to camp."
At least two weeks camping In
summer and a half dozen whole-day
hikes during the year Is the minimum
of outdoor living which the Girl
Scouts would like every member of
the organization to get, Mrs. Little
fleld explained. And she claimed that
there was no season of the year and
no phenomenon of any season for
which a real Girl Scout was unprepared.

(below) a scene at a
Southern tobacco auction.
M ANY men of the South have
been "in tobacco" for years growing tobacco and
curing it buying it and selling it until they know
tobacco from A to Izzard.
Now folks who have been in tobacco all their
lives, folks who grow it, know there is no substitute
for mild ripe tobacco.
And down in the South where they grow tobacco
and where they ought to know something about it in
most places Chesterfield is the largest-selling cigarette.
