For YMCA Group
Junior Stamp club of the

a meeting to be held in Room B
Saturday, April 9. During re
cent weeks the club has studied
the stamps of Guatemala and
Chile.
Members learned that Guate

Chile is called the "Shoestring

Chile's history is closely tied
up with the Spanish conquest
and final liberation under San
Martin and Bolivar of South
America from Spain. Chile's
liberator was Bernardo O'Hig
gins, the "George Washiagton"
of Chile and he was joined by
Joe de San Martin, in the final
battles to free Chile in 1817 anl
1818.
