Scouts Girl Review Editor , Girl Scout cookies have been sold in Utah for 50 years. This annual cookie sale is our main source of income. It affects the lives of thousands of girls throughout the state: White Pine, Nevada: and Fredonia, Arizona. The profits of the cookie sale provide: Staff and maintenance of our summer camps, scholarships for girls to attend camp, special program opportunities for girls, transportation assistance, training opportunities for 2500 adult volunteers. Girls help support their many troop activities through cookie . r profits. Because ; t . inci- dents of tampering with girl scout cookies in eastern states, many questions have been asked of us during the last few days.

Most people in Roy would rather have peace and quiet and sanitary surroundings than several dogs. Mr. Hatch claims the form of prayer is not really as important as the issue of governments hos- tility towards school prayer. The government already allows in god we trust on our currency, one nation under god in our pledge of allegiance, and paid clergy to open sessions of the senate and congress, (even though few legislators are pres-- t ent).

Since the caring for and cleaning up after five dogs is a difficult matter, tight and expensive policing efforts will be necessary. The same scofflaws who kept four dogs under the two dog law can reasonably be expected to keep ten dogs under a five dog ordinance.
