Day by Boy Scouts and Girl | Guides. There are two reasons | why this particular date w as i chosen. Inâ€"the first place it is the | birth date of the late Chief Scout, !Lord Badenâ€"Powell, the founder of | Scouting and Guiding and secondly | it is also the birth date of his wife, ‘Lady Badenâ€"Powell, who is the i Chief Guide. | _ For the past number of years, {wherever there are Guides, it has ' been their custom to gather togethâ€" er in honour of the Chief Scout and ‘ Chief Guide and to send greetings , to Guides of other countries. Since |the war the thoughts of all Girl Guides have turned to those Eur‘o-‘ l pean countries which have been unâ€"| der Nazi oppression. One of t,he‘ first things banned in these counâ€" tries was Boy Scouts and Girl CGuides. But each Boy Scout and Girl Guide still remained true to their Promise and Laws and carâ€" ried them out in every way possible in their daily lives. Now these brave people are being released by the Allies and once again, the flame of Scouting and Guiding will be reâ€" kindled in these countries.
