Girl Scout
News
It Is a little hard to believe
that the young ladles wo see
about town in their attractive
Girl Scout uniform! aro about to
cclnbrute anything as so her and
"middle-aged" ns a 33th birth
day, The Girl Hcouts are always
so young, fresh and up-to-date
thai we somehow get the impres
sion that Girl Scouting Is brand
new. We don't rculize that the
movoment Is 33 yearn old and
that generations of girls have
grown up under Its Influence.
Tho first Girl Scout troop was
organized In Savannah, Ga., on
March 12, 1012, by the late Ju
liette Gordon Low, who had be
come Interested in it through
her friendship with Lord Robert
Baden-Powell, originator of the
scouting movement for both
hoys and girls. The Idea of Girl
Scouting caught on so quickly,
that before the end of 1012
troops were springing up in var
ious parts of the country. Today,
33 year later, Girl Scouting Is
carried on in R.'IOO communities
with a total membership of 1,
218,000. A great deal has happened In
this troubled and turbulent
world since 1012, and one of the
good things has been the quiet,
steady growth of an organiza
tion devoted to helping girls
become better citizens.
Perhaps the secret of the Girl
Scout success story is that the
organization's record is one of
progress. The Girl Scouts have
developed widespread Interna
tional affiliations throughout
the years. Today, when girls are
as copecrned with worm friend
ship as their elders, the or
ganization provides channels of
communication and cooperation
with Girl Guides and Girl Scouts
of other lands.
- Another remarkable thing
about the Girl Scouts U the fact
that It is an organization where
differences of creed, race, na
tionality or polltlo are subjects
of reciprocal interest and respect
Instead of dispute. This is one of
the basic tenets of the move
ment and full credit must go to
the adult volunteers In Girl
Scouts especially to the troop
leaders for maintaining this at
titude. The leaders have realized
that the organization exbits pri
marily for girls and that its pur
pose is to give girls what they
across the country from tha
Klamath Falls armory.
