CANADIAN GIRL G UIDES Guide Jubilee Sees Progress This year the Girl Guides As- sociation is celebrating its Gol- den Jubilee -- 50 years of service to Canadian girls, The first Company formed in this country was in St..Cathar- ines, Ontario, in 1910. This con- sisted of a handful of girls and a few brave leaders who had heard about this movement of Scouting and Guiding for boys and girls in England founded by Lord Baden Powell, and that it was the up and coming thing for young peo- ple. Today, there are Girl Guides, Brownies and Rangers in every Province, in rural and urban communities alike, including the farthest north in the world. Can. | ada now has a membership of more than 200,000 and the pro- gram of the movement has kept pace and in step. with our fast changing world. Surely for an or- ganization to have remained and increased in numbers so much during a really short span on 50 years, speaks for itself, of its value and influence for good in the lives of our girls. Everyone is free to join from age 8 to 18 regardless of race, color, creed or language. The Aim of Guiding is to pre- pare girls for healthy, happy and useful citizenship, it leads to many lasting friendships and gives an understanding of girls all over Canada and in other countries. This training comes under four headings which are called *'Signposts'"" and are as fol- lows: Intelligence, Health, Handi- craft and Service. These provide, an All-Round development of per- sonality. Girls learn to follow the wishes of the majority, to do her share of the work, to accept guidance from her lead- ers. Through a carefully - devel- oped series of tests they learn the clements of homemaking, to be of service to others and the com-|teas, trips and rallies have been thatched roofs without using munity in which she lives, and'enjoyed also birthday parties, nails. they are qualified to take better positions in the world through the many skills they learn in Guiding, CAMPING Camping too is a vital part of this training -- here are the ideal opportunities for character-build- ing and for learning to take re- sponsibility, and camping is such good fun. We are grateful that Guiding continues to grow in Oshawa. Only a few years ago there was just one Company here and now there are 43 units altogether of Brownies, Guides and Rangers. Our Headquarters at 121 Simcoe] street south, is a hive of activity| from Monday afternoon until Sat- with a real birthday cake to cele- brate our 50th birthday.
