(Photo by Dick Haldeman) Girl Scouts Help Needy Service is synonymous with Girl Scouting. A Girl Scout promises "to help people at all times." The holi- day season brings out the best in the helpful nature of Girl Scouts. Troops make favors and gifts for shut-ins and deliver them with songs and smiles. Needy families are adopted and food and gifts follow. These activities are an on going part of the Girl Scout program. Sometimes these Girl Scout activ- ities generate special program and projects. In Dallas, Linda Hoffman's senior troop planned and carried out a Giving Tree program at Holy Communion Lutheran Church. Troops decorated the tree with hand made ornaments.

Shoppers at the Tri City Mall in Rutherford County had a chance to observe all age levels of Girl Scouts deliver their carefully assembled gifts to the Giving Tree. Proud par- ents and leaders beamed with pride as service unit manager, Mary Jane Dailey, called the roll of participat- ing troops. PATH and Christmas Cheer were the community organi- zations receiving their gifts. Lynn Ames' Junior Troop 19 de- livered their gifts to the Belmont Community Organization. While in Stanley and Mt. Holly the gifts were received by the Community Relief Organizations. West Gastonia Girl Scouts worked by troops and gave through Christian Ministries and the Department of Social Services.
