The first Day Camp that lasted the full five days, was held in 1954. This year, they held their sixth annual camp out. Sixteen troops registered this year, but fourteen units participated due to the fact that two leaders could not be present. These two troops were separated into other troops, giving the fourteen units. 175 girls registered this year making 225 participating persons including staff, aids, leaders and the Girl Scouts themselves. 53 more girls were registered last year over this year, due to the lack of leaders for this year. Interested persons who could fill the positions as troop leaders are greatly needed. With the amount of girls in Kearns there could be many more than the 16 troops registered for next years Day Camp. If there is anyone who feels that they could be available for such projects, conAs tact Glora Parkin, CY an average, there are from eight to twelve girls in a troop. With the constant increase in population of Kearns, the possibility of a split in the neighborhoods come fal has been discussed. At the present time, there two neighborhood groups. Chairman for the North Neighborhood group is Lorraine Jarvis. Chairman for the South Neighborhood group is Norma Chairman over all the district is Glora Parkin. was the name Windy Elms given to the Girl Scout Day Camp site. The weather held out good this year for their activities until the last day. The nthe Day Camp lived up to its name, for the day was quite windy. Each year a trailer is sent out from headquarters in Salt Lake City with program supplies which include cooking utensels, and other items to carry out their constructive activities. Each troop has a milk maid to go after bevarage each day at meal time, a counsel girl, who attends a council meeting and brings back information to the troop; shoppers, who may be sent to the store for supplies for the mook outs, if needed; and errand girls. These assignments are rtated each day giving all of the girls in the troop a turn in helping. One troop from Granger was present at Day Camp this year under the leadership of Fern Reid, who had taken her vacation from work to enable her troop to attend the Camp Out this year. Mrs. Parkin wishes to thank all of the leaders for the time spent by them this year away from their families and homes to help with these girls. Their tasks in supervising these girls may be either aided or hindered by the or cooperation from the of the girls. When the regisparents tration slips are signed by the parents giving permission for the girl to attend Day Camp, the leader of Bam-broug- ' non-co-operati- h. the troop then should have the full authority to oversee the girls and her direction should be obeyed. Each troop had from one to four cook outs during Day Camp. This is decided by the girls and the leaders and is governed by the amount of money in the troop reserve. Items made for the cook outs covered a large range, from Mock Sponge Cake, instant pudding, home made ice cream, to one pot stews, hobo lunch, hamburgers, or sloppy joes, and dough cooked around wienies. About all of the troops enjoyed the traditional Girl Scout somemores and banana boats. The troops usually take advantage of the Camp Outs to make their Fathers Day presents, some of which are really unique. Plaster of Paris plaques, pen holders, picture scenes were made. For the most part, although they were more tanned and tired at the end of the week, Day Camp was a success again this year and can continue to be so in the years to come with the help and cooperation of the public. ka-bob- s, Scouts Doings Cub Scout Pack 622 under Cub Master Don Beck, are selling fresh eggs as a Pack project.

The clearing of the area is a yearly project done by the Walker Neal Snyder Post ELgin 9-07- 61 ANYTHING GOES According to the dictionary, a naive person is one who is not alert, one who believes everything he hears and who is a little simpleminded. There are still a number of these people around. They are the ones who continue to buy the Brooklyn Bridge and Hoover Dam. A little higher on the intelligence scale are the naive people who think that justice always triumphs, that the guilty are always punished and that all good deeds are certainly always rewarded. They also believe that all men are born equal and that all men are treated equally in the eyes of the law. If you think that this is the start of a philosophical thesis on whats wrong with the world you could not be more mistaken. Actually its the prelude to a humorous story of the most naive man I have ever heard of. It seems that this individual has a son and a dog. The son wa saway at college and the dog stayed home with his master. The dog looked just like any other canine except he was a little smarter than the rest, bring in the paper and all those other little tricks that makes a dog a nice pet to have around the house. One day the father got a letter from his son. In the leter he said he was lonely for his dog and would like his father to ship dear old Fido to him. The father agreed but cautioned his son to take good care of him because he was an exceptionally smart dog and he didnt want anything to happen to him. After the son had the dog a few months he sent his father another letter. He told him that in his spare time he taught the dog to read and talk. He informed his father that the dog could read technical books and took a great liking to chemistry and math. He asked his father for $500 os that he could get his dog a private tutor to further his education. The father was delighted and sent the money post haste. A few months later another letter came from his By Rolf W. Kay son. This time eh told his father that the $500 had been spent and that the tutor taught the dog everything he could. eH also informed his father that the dog expressed a great desire to go into dentistry. This would cost another $500 but the son assured his father that it would be well worth it. He felt sure that as son as the dog started his practice of dentistry he would repay his master many times over. The father was beside himself with joy and wired the money to his son. About six months later came another letter. The dog had graduated from dental school with the highest honors and received his Doctors degree with great dignity. But now that he was ready to practice the problem of equipment and office space came up. This would cost. about three thousand dollars but wit hit the dog could start practice and start repaying his debts. He also told his father that the dow had drilled and filled the teeth of all of the fellows at college and they all said they had never had a better job done. With these satisfied patients the dog should be making ten thousand dollars a year from the start. Naturally, the father' sent the money to his son. For a whole year the son didnt write a single letter home. The father became concerned and flew back to see his son in college and of course he wanted to see his dog who, he felt sure, was now a prominent dentist. He arrived at his sons dormitory and after all the greetings were over se said, Wheres Fido, son? Id like to congratulate him and see his offices. iSt down. Dad, said the son. Ive got some terrible news to tell you. Last night we were going to come home and surprise you. As we were packing, Fido turned to me and said, Just for laughs, I think Ill tell your mother about the time I saw your father kissing the maid. Well, dad, this really upset me so I killed him. The father with a worried look on his face said, You did the right thing, son, are you sure hes dead? |
