SPECIALISTS IN HOMEWARES 3 W. 6TH ST. MEDFORD I 3 Camp Fire Girls To Give Pageant On Year's Theme To call attention to Camp Fire and its 1955 theme, "Let Freedom Ring," members of the Rogue Camp Fire groups plan an historical pageant based on the founding of communities in the valley. Rehearsals for this have already started. This week groups throughout the nation are observing the 45th anniversary of Camp Fire organ ization and Mrs. Alan Pattison, council president, states that the week "signals the start of a year of renewed activity for more than 392,000 Camp Fire mem bers, and directed toward a greater appreciation and sup port of the ideals upon which this country was founded. Because the theme recalls the part bells have played in Am erica's struggle for liberty and independence, Mrs. Pattison pointed out "the freedom which was first proclaimed by bells sounded by the defenders of our democracy has been echoed through years of both war and peace by chimes from schools, churches, and civic centers, sym bols of the American way of life." One of the recent activities of Camp Fire Girls was aiding the financial campaign for restora tion of the famed Liberty Bell. "The nation's oldest service organization for girls from 7 to 18, boasting more than four mil lion 'alumnae," will herald its Birthday Week throughout the land with a backward glance at the founding fathers, and a steady gaze into the future that its membership will help to mold," Mrs. .Pattison added.
