Favorite sport of Camp Fire Girls is camping which means also hiking, cooking out of doors and exploring. These things they do the year round with a spec ial; splurge in the summer. Throughout the year, they find that cooking is fun; work for honors by planning, organizing and preparing food for home folks and for parties. A while back, a Camp Fire "mother," Vera Fox, had a bright idea and enlisted the help of a dozen or so home economists in the making of a book "Cook ing is Fun for the Camp Fire Girl." Oldsters could learn a lot, get new inspiration from looking over these memos from the man ual.

Now put all the ingredients you will need on the table before you begin. Then you won't be miss ing anything once you have started" says the book. Be Sure lo Clean Up "Of course you will never, never leave the kitchen in a mess and expect someone else to straighten up for. you. After all, it is only fair to put away the things you have used. It won't take long either be cause it can be done while the food is cooking or baking. "As for the floor it's nice to sweep up after you have cooked some thing because a few crumbs or a little flour can't help but fall when you are at work. "Lastly, whistle while you cook!"
