Captain Thompson is also to be congratulated for her work in the company in the six years since this company has been formed. 12 All Round Cords have been awarded, which is quite an achievement for such a young company, and speaks for itself of the excellent training and leadership that this com- pany has, Also to the girls who have won these awards and to their leaders may we salute you in Guide fashion, "Bravo, Bravo, Very Well Done".

Two of these girls have already been informed | that they--are to execute-their final challenge, one girl will be going on Jan. 18th and the other on Jan. 26th.
