CGIT Marks 50th Anniversary With $50,000 Gift To Indonesia' By MARY WILLIAMS This year marks the 50th anni- versary of the Canadian Girls in Training -- better known as CGIT. To mark the anniversary they plan a gift of $50,000 for their first overseas project. Through the World Council of Churches they learned of the need of the Christian Church in Indonesia to build and endow a camp and conference centre, where Christians might gather, and the $50,000 will be used for this. In conjunction with raising this birthday money, the pur- pose of the celebrations is to make churches aware of and ac- quainted with the purpose of the CGIT -- to increase the number of CGIT groups in Can- ada -- and to present teenage girls with the challenge of Chris- tian service, it ceased to function. Mrs. Bush- by's connections with CGIT had started many years before this, when as a young girl she at- tended the first convention as a representative of her church, in Massey Hall, in approximately 1918 or 1919, when she lived in Toronto. She helped to organize a group in Toronto in 1919. Harmony United Church or- ganized its first CGIT group in 1952 before the present church was built, when girls met in the school. Miss Margaret Donald- son was the first leader. An attempt was made to trace the groups in St. Stephen's, Northminster, South- minster, Westmount and in the First Baptist Church, where groups are active today, but was not successful. Groups are also active in Orono, Hampton, Enniskillen and Tyrone on the To have a share in the Na-jeast and two groups in Ajax on pea project the Oshawa and/the west. istrict CGIT Board plan a | "Re-Union and Gift Tea" to be| NEWEST GROUP | held in St. Andrew's Church, Ajax has perhaps the newest | Oshawa on March 31 from 2.30|8Toup in the Presbytery with St. to 4.30 and from 7.30 to 9.30|!imothy's Presbyterian Church p.m. Anyone with past or pres-|9'sanizing last year under ent interest in CGIT can attend, Superintendent Mrs. Frank to join in the social re-union and|CoMkey, wife of the Reverend to share in the National project.|Ftank Conkey and three lead- ers.

Some do not want to mention the names of their mother or father or tell either's age be- cause this would be a breach of respect.
