Corner
By CAPTAIN 1.VXTQN
Has anyone got wet feet•, -at
least any Canaries? After our
patrol bike on Saturday . after-
noon, I think. we could take any-
thing the weatherman gave :us
and conic through with flying
colors!
however, the Canary Patrol
under Mary Page's capable
leadership did have a good hike
and never have • I tasted such
good• hamburgers. I was told it
was their spe.eiai,t', and they
certainly, are good cooks. The
dampers, too, were good and I
think Guides everywhere are in-
debted to the inventor of foil-
wrap. I'orlight-weight biking it
certainly is the answer to the
pots and pans' problem,
Two of the girls passed their
Second Class fire -lighting test.
Good work 'Ten= and Grace!
We also understand that the
Orioles had a hike beginning --in
what some people call --the wee
hours of the morning! But of
course, Guides are early bird
and `from all reports (none of
whi£'h are official) we understand
that this happy band gathered
together at seven in the morn-
ing .at Marg Sanders.
We also heard via the •grape-
vine that their spaghetti and
meat balls were out of this
world. Now whether this was
their breakfast or dinner I don't
know -the fact has not yet been
established, One thing --I bet they
didn't' get wet feet -maybe • the
Canaries will decide to become
early birds too.
Last week two n ore tests
were accomplished wring the
meeting, Linda Wolper passed
the Second .Class Safety test and
Margie Howey the Second Class
Sewing Test..
Lefty- and I are certainly
pleased with the'progress of you
girls working on Second Class,
Yon ke@ep 'us hopping passing
tests brit then we like to hop!
So keep up the good work --by
fall over half the company should
be Second Class Guides: and that
will be wonderful. •
Remember girls to .bring your
equipment to practice making
camp beds this Thursday night,
Do you know Abet five Weeks
from. 'next Sunday• we'll be off
to camp? • ! !
