When this happens, he emphasized, there Is nothing to do but carry the airmail by train to the next airport center, San Fran cisco or Oakland to the south and Portland to the north. Much valuable time la thus lost and If the airmail letters are des tined for the bay cities or Portland tho value of airmail service is corn- Are without a doubt the smartest in town.

Central The second In a series of study ! classes covering the Girl Scout pro gram will be held Wednesday at 1:30 p. m. at scout headquarters and a review of the talk given by Mrs. Maude Morse on "The Teen Age Girl" will precede the study of mechanics of troop organization. Topics under this neaaing inciuae: Patrols, court of honor, patrol leaders, troop committees and record of fin ance. Much of the success of Girl Scout progress depends upon a thor ough knowledge of these fundamen tals. Each troop of girls Is divided Into smaller divisions called patrols. Each patrol elects a representative or pa trol leader who meets with the cap tain and lieutenant (adult leaders). These elective leaders form the "court of honor." Thla court Is usually held at the close of every troop meeting to discuss the meeting Just held and to plan for the next week's session. This group holds a social meeting once or twice a year and plans the big events for the scout year. Through thla organization, represen tative democratic experience in lead ership Is given each Girl Scout.
