win Liedtke, Jr., and Lois Lucas

Girl Scout Leaders
Have Interesting
Meeting Monday
A new and different type of
meeting was enjoyed Monday by
members of the Girl Scout Lead-
ers’ club when they divided ac-
cording to schools in which their
troops are formed. The meeting
was held in the recreation rooms
of First Methodist church.
The groups discussed the pro-
grams they will present to Par-
ent Teacher associations or civic
groups during March, the birth-
day month of Scouting. Mrs.
Fletcher Morris announced Girl
Scout week as March 6 through
11. She also said there would be
a union church service March 6
to which all Girl Scouts, Brown-
ies and leaders are urged to at-
tend. in uniform if possible. The
place will be announced later
The junior high school troop
will present a Thinking day pro-
gram February 3 to the Book
club and the same program at a
later date to a civic club.
March 7 each troop will place
window displays in downtown
store windows, again observing
the 43rd birthday of Scouting.
Mrs. Ralph Long will be in
charge and on February 7 Mrs.
Clyde Bohls will assist leaders
with ideas for displays.
Specialized training for leaders
will -be given January 27 and 28
by Mrs. Rankin Hardy at the
Girl Scout Little House. An open
meeting of the council will be
held January 31 at the First
State bank with Miss Alice Mul-
kev, community advisor, national
< office. Dallas, present. All regis-
tered adults were urged to attend
by Mrs. Peter Robinson, Leaders’
Slimp, principal of State school,
who operated the film on a pro-
jector belonging to the school.
Mrs. Blandford introduced the
subject with a discussion on wise
spending, especially on the part
of women who, according to
latest statistics, have charge of
85 per cent of all earned income
in the United States. The educa-
tional film related in an impres-
sive manner the story of an
average young couple living un-
der average circumstances, who
had an amount of money saved
from month to month, and the
husband decided that it should be
put to work for them. Deciding
what to do with it in a way that
would be a safe investment as
well as one that would bring
profit, was the problem of the
y oung couple, who worked it out
quite satisfactorily for all con-
cerned. The way stocks are
bought and sold was also an in-
teresting part of the film.
Mr. Dodson conducted a ques-
tion and answer period following
the film, and a number of points
regarding investments was
brought out by both the mem-
bers and the leader.
Miss Ruth Young, president,
presided for the business meet-
ing following the program. Miss
Margaret Bradley, who has been
a member of the club’s music de-
partment for several years, was
named an honorary’ member
since she now resides in Waco.
Mrs. Nowasa Small was unani-
mously elected to membership in
the music department.
The club voted to contribute to
the federation’s Latin-American
scholarship fund, the Indian
scholarship a n d recreational
fund, the district occupational
therapy scholarship fund, and
the local March of Dimes cam-
paign.
A note of thanks from the
Women’s forum of Wichita Falls
was read in which the forum ex-
pressed appreciation for the con-
tribution made by the Gainesville
club for the annual Christmas
gifts presented to the persons at
the State hospital there.
A meeting of board members
of Second district was announced
for January 19, in Dallas, and

sent the local club.
