"Too busy to celebrate" la
what the Camp Fire Glrla are
faying in response to inquiries
regarding the thirtieth anniver
sary oi the organization. Their
"Service lor Victory" program
is occupying so much thought
and energy of the 308,000 mem
bers throughout the country
that they will have little time
to celebrate during March, their
birthday month, it was announc
ed Friday by Mrs. J. A. Ken
nedy. "This Service lor Victory pro
gram is unique in war work,"
said Mrs. Kennedy, "because it
not only provides an opportunity
lor the girls to serve their coun
try by doing those things that
teen-age girls can do well, but
very activity included was se
lected lor its educational and
character-training value. For in
stance, the war work the girls
do as home volunteers with its
emphasis on well-balanced and
inexpensive meals is a direct
application ol our home craft
which has been of first import
ance in tho Camp Fire girls
program since its formulation
30 years ago.
"The girls are organized on
live tronis to neip win the vie-'
tory. They nave signed up as
home volunteers to carry on
home tasKs that will relieve
their mowers lor war duty.
They are cooperating witn toe
Red Cross, civilian defense ana
other emergency organizations.
To help morale they are train'
inir themselves '.to conduc
games, songs, and tell stories
that may help entertain groups
- in an emergency. In prepared
ness they have learned safety
and civilian detense regulations
and are increasing their health
and physical fitness. They are
translating the principles of de-
znocracy into their group activi
ties preparing for citizenship re
sponsibilities of their own."
- "Home Volunteers lor Vic
tory," according to Mrs. Ken
nedy, had valuable months
training before war was declar
ed through their defense pro
ject, which carries out specific
activities in planning family
food, family service and family
fun.
Girls who in the fall learned
to prepare A to Z dinners
(Vitamins A to Z-for-Zest) scaled
to cost no more than one dollar
for a family of four, now are
"taking over" at least one night
a week when mothers are oc
cupied by war work. To bring
to a climax the program started
in the falL girls under the guid
anca of dietitians will re-do din
ners for a dollar for a family. of
four, comparing spring food
costs with prices before the war
started.
A course In baby care, spon
sored by Camp Fire girls, has
just been revised by national
headquarters, and issued under
the recommendation of the Red
Cross and the United States
children's bureau. This is open
to all Camp Fire girls and offers
specific training in bathing,
dressing and feeding a baby.
Senior Camp Fire girls, newly
organized last fall into the na
tional Horizon club, have been
worKlng throughout the winter
months on their own special
community project, "America's
Children," through which they
are iinaing out what is being
done and what needs to be done
lor the physically handicapped
cnuaren or their communities.
"Three million Camp Fire
girls who have taken part in the
program over the course ol the
past 30 years have reason to be
proud ol their tradition," says
Mrs. Kennedy. . ,
"This anniversary: makes us
appreciate the value ol the train
ing .and experience - gained
through the years. Faced with
this war situation, we feel we
are ready to meet it with activi
ties well planned tar immediate
service and permanent value. We
leel that it is not just what the
girls do to serve their country,
but what they are that matters.
Our "Service lor Victory" pro-
gram is designed to train them
for citizenship through what
they are doing today lor victory
I cannot think ol a better way
to commemorate the founding

by The United Press listening

editorial condemning the chop
ping down of the Japanese

(An unknown vandal chop

Dec. 8. the day after the at
tack at Pearl Harbor. Since
then none have been cut
down.)
The unfortunate severing
of the helpless trees on the eve
ol their blossoming has proved
great setback to the world

moral standards of the Amer.

Nichi Nichi editorial said.
