Troop 6 Appoints New
House Committee:
Bobbie Fisher reports that An
nie Erwin has been appointed
chairman of the House Committee,
with Emily Biggs, Ann Bunn, and
Mary Frances Allsbrook assisting.
Reporters of the Intermediate
Scout Troops invited Miss Amette
VanDyke to meet with them and
tell them something about how
news is gathered, written up,
printed and distributed.
Miss Van Dyke said that all
around them were things to write
about and she gave them a simple
outline—the FOUR W's and HOW
—to follow when tney put me
words down on paper. The Scouts
learned that if the reporter omits
one of the four W's (who,what,
•where, when) or how, the news
story is incomplete.
She told them the next most im
portant thing was to use simple
words correctly and effectively.
She cautioned them against using
flowery descriptions.
VTim. VanDyke told the scouts
the meaning of some of the terms
relating to type and equipment
and confessed that the process of
•printing was so fascinating that
the first week on the job she
couldn’t work for looking.
The Scouts listened intently,
wishing that they might have an
opportunity to see for themselves
“what makes the wheels go round.”
Troop lk Witt Make
Friendship Bags:
Realizing that girls in liberated
countries still need our help,
Scouts of Troop 14 want to make
simple drawstring bags out of
gay material and fill them with
such things as needles, pins,
combs, soap, ribbon, buttons, pen
cils, wash cloths, hard candy, and
a toy for a child.
Troop 14 is asking the other
troops to help them collect these
things. The Friendship Bags will
be sent overseas as a token of
friendship from the troops to girls
in liberated countries. Each bag
may carry the names and troop
numbers of the senders.
Troop 15 Takes Another Trip:
While the Peter Pan Patrol was
planning a troop celebration for
Girl Scout Week, the Yellow Pansy
Patrol visited Land Jewelry Store
to learn something about the dif
ferent types of glassware used in
the home today.
After showing the Scouts pic
tures of the different types of
glassware, Miss Singletary pointed
out many fine examples in the
store. Showing them a beautiful
punch bowl she explained that it
was made of pressed glass in
-- v
Fostoria’s Early American pattern,
and that it was called pressed
glass because it was poured into
a mold and pressed into shape.
The Scouts discovered that the
process of etching glass is similai
to stenciling. Miss Singletary told
them that the color of the ruby
glass was fired into it, and tha
in making cloisonne the decora
tion is set in enamel between wire
fillets. The Scouts were very much
impressed and their report to the
rest of the troop aroused an in
terest in the Glass Badge.
