Committee Plans
Leaders Camapign
For Girl Scouts
A campaign to recruit women
lor Girl Scout leaders will be
made this week by the Medford
Girl Scout Council under the
direction of the organization
committee, of which Mrs. John
Larwood is chairman. It is point
ed out that the Girl Scout move
ment is constantly expanding
here and that many additional
leaders must be recruited if the
troops are to continue their ac
tivities this fall .
Women of the Girl Scout
Council feel that the Scouting
program is in line with thought
of a noted educator who said
"What the best and wisest
parent wants for his own child,
that must the community want
for all its children. Any other
Ideal Is narrow and unlovely;
acted upon, it destroys democra
cy." Translating this into Girl
Scout terms, the council wishes
to make the Girl Scout program
available to all the girls in the
community from seven to eigh
teen years of age, through lead
ers selected from among the
homemakers, the teachers, the
business or professional women
in Jackson county.
"To begin the 1944-1945 Girl
Scout year the Medford Council
does have a group of splendid
leaders and assistant leaders,"
Mrs. Larwood states. "However,
many of the troops are too large
and extra leaders are needed
when divisions are made. A num
ber of troops, already organized,
cannot begin activities because
last year's leader cannot con
tinue. And an all too great a
number of girls of Scout age are
completely on 'the outside, look
ing in' until suitable leaders are
found.
"This appeal Is made to all
women who like girls; who en
Joy doing things with them and
learning with them the things
they want to do. Women who
have a few skills or abilities of
their own that they are able to
School
Days
Mean extra work In keep
ing boys and girls looking
neat and clean. Why not
let us share the burden of
that job? You'll be agree
ably surprised at the mod
erate cost of America's
D E P E N D A BLE laundry
service.
