Girl Scouts Observing Their Fiftieth Birthday Approximately 3 ft million / 1 and adult members of KCUrl Scouts of the USA are this week celebrating the 50th anniversary of the organiza tion. Juliette Low established tho first troop of 12 girls on March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia. As a part of the observance of Girl Scout Week, Mrs. Her bert Sicker of Durham, pub licity chairman of the Bright Leaf Girl Scout Council of North Carolina, Inc., has pre pared a release of the history, duties and objectives of Girl Scouting which follows: Mrs. Low in 1912 brought from England the principles of Scouting as set forth by Lord Baden-Powell, founder of the Scout movement, and adapted them to the needs of girls in the United States. Since 1912, almost 18Mj mil lion girls, women and men have belonged to the Girl " Scouts. They carry on their ? program in every state of the Union, in its possessions and in 49 other countries where American families live. The program itself, according to Mrs. Charles U. Culmer of Lib ertyville, Illinois, Girl Scout National President, has expand ed and changed to keep pace with our changing times. "The basic purpose of Girl Scout ing, however, has remained the same," Mrs. Culmer added. "It is to inspire girls with the highest ideals of character, conduct, patriotism, and serv ice that they may become hap py and resourceful citizens" Girl Scouting is part of an international movement. I n many other countries, Girl Scouts are called Girl Guides. The Girl Scouts and Girl Guides are linked through membership in the 51-nation World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. carries on an extensive ex change with other member countries of the World Associa tion. Girl Guides visit Girl Scout councils in the United States and attend events such as Senior Roundups; in turn, Girl Scouts from this coun try visit Guides and participate' in international meetings and encampments abroad. During the last six years, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A have served as hostess to almost 700 international Guides / Girl. Scouts and have sent close to' 1,000 Girl Scouts abroad in ex-, changes involving 51 countries.' These exchanges are largely financed by Juliette Low World Friend Ship Fund which is supported by Voluntary con tributions from Girl Scouts all over the United States. Girl Scouting is open to all girls seven through 17 years of age, regardless of race, creed, or nationality. They are | united by the Girl Scout Prom ise in which each girl pledges: "On my honor, 1 will try: "to do my duty to God and my country, "to Help other people at all times, "To obey the Girl Scout Laws." The Girl Scout Laws require members to be trustworthy, loyal, useful, friendly, courte ous, kind to animals, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, and clean in thought, words, and deed. The Girl Scouts' motto is "Be Pre pared." There is a single overall pro all program of activities grad ed according to three age levels: Brownies, seven through nine years; Intermediate Scouts, 10 through 13 years; Senior Scouts, 14 through 17 years. Each age group has its own uniform. The Girl Scout program in cludes activities in 11 fields: arts and crafts, literature and I dramatics, music and dancing, | community life, international friendship,, nature out-of-doors, . sports and games, agriculture, I health and safety, and home making. I Brownies explore the world of nature, make bird feeding stations, learn to care for pets and collect pebbles, shells, leaves and other natural treas ires. Like older Scouts, they serve ithers, especially at home vhere they perform simple lousehold tasks gnd learn to rare for younger children. Intermediate Girl Scouts earn jadges for proficiency in the ictivities of their choice. These ictivities range from running i puppet show to studying nodern radio and television operations to beekeeping. In addition to earning badges, the girls carry out service projects in the community, such as as sisting at the polls as aids to voters. They enjoy the out-of doors in day camps, establish ed camps and troop camping excursions. Senior Girl Scouts enjoy] camping of a more advanced nature. Like all Girl Scouts, they give much of their time to serving others. They often choose to serve as aides in hospitals, libraries, museums and other community agencies. Through these aide programs, they have the opportunity of exploring vocational possibili ties. They also participate in career conferences designed to aid them in the selection of their future life work. Mrs. S. T. Arrington of Hol lister was a guest of Mrs. P. R. Davis last week.
