Camp Fire Girls Observe
Forty-Seventh Birthday
Over 400.000 CamD Fire Girts
from coa to coast will cele
brate next week the 47th birth
day of their organization. Since
March 17, 1910. when Camp
Fire was founded by Dr. and
Mrs. Luther Halsey Gulick and
other distinguished educators,
the organization has helped over
4.000,000 girls to become better
homemakcrs and citizens.
This vear Camp Fire Girls,
Inc., has carried on its proud
tradition with a national pro
gram keyed to the theme, ro
oether We Make Tomorrow, ac
cording to Mrs. Harold H. Hart
man, president. Birthday Week,
March 17-24, will climax a year
of growth and achievement in
which girls are joining with
adults to build a better world,
h declared. Camp Fire pro
vides a eisure-time program of
enjoyable and character-build-
ing acuviues iur an -gins be
tween the ages of seven and
eighteen.
In keeping with this year's
theme, "Together We Make io
morrow," Camp Fire Girls began
by learning to know themselves
their personalities their
kills and abilities and next
by directing their energies to
ward larger goals of self-develop
ment and service, Mrs. Hariman
said.
The results, she explained,
cannot be measured with a slide
rule nor by statistics. Neither
character and personality de
velopment nor increased skills
which are reflected in growing
self-assurance and emotional
well-being can be tagged and
given a number, she said.
Becord LeaTea Mark
"Their over-all record, how
ever, has left its mark in every
one of the more than 3.000 com
munities in which there are
Camp Fire Girls," Mrs. Hartman
asserted. Wherever there is a
Job to be dofte wherever there
Is a need the helping hand of a
Camp Fire Girl has been ex
tended, she stated. Especially
significant in this respect. Mrs.
Hartman commented is the op
portunity which Camp Fire pro
vides for physically handicap
ped girls to join with girls their
own age In fulfilling their need
"for belonging." In Camp Fire,,
she explained, these girls are
considered "exceptional chil
dren," for each and every one
of them has a talent or ability,
which they can and do share
with others.
Across the country, she de
clared. Camp Fire Girls are giv
ing thousands of hours of ser
vice as hospital and civilian de
fense aides, serving as assistant
playground instructors, helping
with story hours at libraries,
creating and repairing toys for
less fortunate children, making
garments and hospital supplies,
baby-sitting so that mothers can
register and vote, making books
and tape recordings for the blind
that they might "see" again,
teaching post-polio patients to
swim and helping cerebral pal
sied children to learn exciting
new crafts.
Three Age Groups
Camp Fire gears its program
to three age groups: Blue Birds,
seven to ten; Camp Fire Girls,
ten to fifteen, and Horizon club,
senior high school members.
Thousands of men and women
volunteers are combining forces
with Camp Fire Girls as they
work today to build a better to
morrow. Women serve as group
leaders and both men and wom
en serve as sponsors, commit
tee and Council members. Many
more adult volunteers are need
ed, to enable Camp Fire to ex
tend its program to the growing
number of girls who are eager
to enjoy the opportunities which
membership provides.

Engineer Gives,
Safety Tips for
Flying of Kites
Pullman Now is the time
that all bona fide kite flyers go
into action. But they should heed
a word of warning.
Power lines and flying kites
can be a fatal combination once
they get together. If kites or
strings tangle with power lines,
children should be warned to
drop the kite string. Paul Fan
ning, Washington state college
Extension agricultural engineer
ing specialist urges parents to
teach their children the danger
of flying kites near electric
lines, trying to pull down any
thing from these lines, or touch
ing lines that have broken and
are on the ground or hanging
loose from their poles.
Both farm and city children
should understand this danger.
A wet or damp kite string, or
the wire sometimes used on kites
is an excellent conductor of el
ectricity. If the kite hits a pow-
er line, the child holding the
cord may be on the receiving
end of a fatal charge of electric
ity.
"Warn your children against
trying to rescue a kite that gets
away and blows onto power
lines, Mr. Fanning advises
"They should leave it. And par
ents should promptly report it
to the power company or rural
electric cooperative so a line
man can remove it.
"Also caution your children
against trying to remove any
thing in contact with electric
lines." Never, under any cireum
stances, should they touch brok
en lines on the ground or hang
ing from poles. These spell dan
ger. Many children are killed
each year from this one cause.
A broken line should be re
ported immediately to the near
est electric company. If possible
some adult should stand guard
over fallen lines until the pow
er can be shut off. They should
also warn off anyone who may
come near, Mr. Fanning advises.

In Composition
Of Winning Song
Salem The freshman class at
Willamette university captured
the victor's banner at the an
nual Freshman Glee March 16
by earning 312 of a possible 360
points awards by the judges in
the song competition between
classes. Their entry, "In Trib
ute," won them first place in the
song.
The frosh winners, who form
ed a lamp in red-black and white
were led by Ron Walker of Van
couver. Bob Clark of San Mateo,
Qalif., led the singing, and the
music was written by Miss Sonja
Peterson, Medford, and Rod
BernHau, Canby. The words to
their alma mater were composed
by a committee consisting of Rod
Bernklau, Miss Catherine Casp
er, Walla Walla; Jan Hansen,
Beaverton; Miss Kathy Harris,
Yakima; Ralph Litchfield. New
port; Miss Janet Perry, Medford;
Miss Sara Pope, Niles, Cal.; Miss
Sherry Rutledge, Boise, Idaho;
and Lynn Wilcox, Beaverton.
Second .place went to the junr
iors, who had taken the winner's
banner the two previous years.
Their entry, "Threads of Time"
was awarded 283 points and was
a clock with hands that moved.
Sophomores won third place
and 269 points for their "A Song
for You, Willamette," Their for
mation was the crimson cross of
Waller hall. The senior class
was in fourth place with "Alma
Mater" sung while students
formed a graduation diploma.
All bets which had been made
as to the outcome of Glee were
paid off on the campus Monday
morning, designated "Blue Mon
day." Classes were disrupted by
the appearance of bathrobe clad
losers, characters with green
hair, and a variety of pthers
whose confidence in their class
proved to be unwise. The last
place seniors planned and pre
sented an assembly Monday
morning which parodied the
events of the previous Glee
week, then they took a dip in
the cold waters of the Mill
Stream by the campus, annual
outing for the losing class.
Too much soaking lowers the
nutritional value of vegetables.
They should be washed and
cooked quickly in a minimum
amount of water.
