Penny Con- nelly. Barbara Orr and Carol Woods were passing their fire test and Scouts pace in order to earn their second class Guide aw- ard. Believe me. Captain Elva Whaley and Lieutenant Elizabeth Bailie were not the only ones keeping an eye on the proceed- ings. I spent part of the morning watching the test and asking numerous questions about this and that. In fact I found them so interesting I may even join the Guides and learn a few More of the really valuable things the girls take up at their meetings and outings. However. some of the most interested spectators were several Cubs and some-day Cubs, who stationed themselves in a maple tree (yes I said tree) on our front lawn and heckled the girls as they were passing their scouts-pace in which the girls had to walk and run 20 paces alternately for one mile. From the tree came sounds close- ly resembling the broadcasting at the horse races. This good na- tured heckling seemed to help the girls as they began to tire a little towards the end of the mile. The girls and their leaders and a few other taggers-on enjoyed a lunch of hot dogs. etc., cooked over an open fire. Seeing as how they had to light a fire they felt they might as well make use of it. It was a beautiful morning and if not too much work was done in this house it was only partly be~ cause of the tests, but mostly be- cause. while out watching the be- ginning of the tests I happened to see our cat crossing the roof of our house and entering the bedroom window carrying a large meal for herself and her fat kit- ten to breakfast on in the middle of the kitchen floor (naturally). After having some of these brave boy Cubs remove the cats and their breakfast and starting the dishes once again in comes the cat again. this time carrying a fat field mouse. This time I just closed the bedroom window and left the whole business for the rest of the morning. Who wants to work on a lovely day like this when everyone else is out watch- ing the Guides anyway. ---. . ‘ Now that Captain Whaley and Lieutenant Bailie have been working with the Guides for a few months and are pretty well organized, they find they could accommodate a few more girls in the company. Any girls twelve 01‘ over who are interested in join- ing this group should contact Captain Whaley at AV. 5-2332 or Lieutenant Bailie at AV. 5-2324. Guiding gives a girl an oppor- tunity to learn many worth- while thmgs and to really “Be Prepared" so come on girls. come and join your friends in this ex- citing work. On Saturday afternoon the First Concord Brownie Pack had an enjoyable outing at the home of their leader, Brown Owl, Mrs. Barbara Fraser, at King. The girls motored to King and then went on a hike in nearby woods, find- ing’ many treasures of nature on the way. The Brownies enjoyed refreshments and games at Mrs. Fraser’s after the hike. Brownies Laurie Day. Alison Fraser and Valerie McClymont passed their House Orderly Badge last week at the home of Mrs. Fred Orr, Rockview Gardens. The First Concord Guide and Brownie Mothers’ Group Commit- tee met Thursday. April 21. at the home of Mrs. Harold Keffer, No. 7 Highway West. As this was the last meeting for the season quite a lot of business was taken care of at this time. Final plans for the annual mother and daugh- ter banquet were made. The ban- quet will be held May 5 at the Lutheran Church on Keele St., at 6.30 pm. It was decided to have a travelling bake sale in the com- munity on May 14. Mothers were asked to bake at least three pies or cakes (no cookies please) which will be picked up as arranged by the telephone committee. It is to be hoped that all mothers of Guides and Brownies will support this bake sale. To the residents of 1Concord we ask you to be sure .to watch for the mothers as they icome around with the baking and Ihelp the group by buying some- lthing. You will of course be doing yourself a favour as some of these mothers are wonderful bakers. A motion was passed to charge $1.00 a year membership fee to help swell the treasury. Mrs. Barbara Fraser who recently moved to King will not be acting as Brown Owl next season so the position is open to some interested perâ€" son. World Refugee Week We have heard of one family in Concord who, as a family pro- ject to aid refugees during World Refugee Week are planning on an austerity program at home. Keeping in mind that refugees in Europe are expected to live on five'dollars a month for food and lodging. this family plan to cut out desserts and many other high- er priced items here and there and expect to be able in this way to give at least $15 to the World Refugee Fund. This sounds like a good way of “giving till it hurts". It would probably make us all a little more understanding of the problem these refugees must face day after day. week after week, and year after long vear. if we were to undertake the same plan. Concord News holidays. The main objective of the tour was to visit the United Nations building and to meet the Canadian representative. The stu- dents ioined others from high schools in and around Toronto and travelled by train. leaving on Sunday night and returning on Thursday morning. TimQ was made available for visits to the famed Chinatown. the Bowery and Radio City Music Hall. as well as a cruise around Manhat- tan and the Hayden Planetarium. Some free time was arranged for shopping which according to Wen- dy was mostly of the “window shopping" type. Personlas On Saturday afternoon April 23. Loren Whaley had a much be- lated birthday party. Loren was nine years old on March 27. but so many of his friends were ill at‘ that time and then mommie had Virus pneumonia, that the party had to be postponed. The weather was so nice on Saturday Loren thinks he might postpone his parâ€" ty every year. Enjoying the party with him were friends Julie Fletcher. Dale and Joannie Mc- Kay. Jimmie Mills. Ronnie Kent- ner, David Knight. David Bur- lington and cousins Robert Bailie and Jeffrey & Wesley Boron. Big sister Karen and friend Wendy Simmons were on hand to super- vise the games. A fcw mothers have discovered the advantage it is to have these girls on hand at occasions like this. leaving mother free to heat hot dogs. set the' tab- ile, etc.. or just to lie down with l her feet up and an ice bag on her ihead, or whatever the case may be. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Reesor. No. 7 Highway West on the birth of a son last week and to M1“. and Mrs James Fletcher. No. 7 Highway West on the birth of their son also born last week.

Karen and Lynda made the trip with Lynda's aunt and uncle. Mr. and Mrs. Percy Ash, No. 7 Highway west, who were also visiting Mrs. Ash's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Stan Keffer, North Bay. A little â€"- shall be say excitement â€"â€" was added to the trip when Mr. Ash’s car decided not to make the trip after all and a hurried call had to be put through to son John in Clarkson who dashed up and lent his car to the would-be travellers leaving him with the reluctant one. On the trip home John's car decided to add to the excitement by having a flat tire. The travellers all report a pleas- ‘ant trip in spite of everything.
