GIRL SCOUT TROOP
HAS MEETING

ber 18 at the Girl Scout cabin.

Each patrol will help to prepare
the supper. The troop practiced
the investiture ceremony which

pins arrive.
Diana Evans, Scribe.
, f ' HE WORLD outdoors is a
wonderful place to be—in the
Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter.
It is a place where a man can
make his own personal type of
activity. He can rest in the shade
of a moss-draped oak and con
template the changing cloud pat
terns of a windblown sky. He can
follow a dim forest trail or guide
his canoe through choppy lakes
and swift flowing streams.
There is still plenty of “open
country” in this great land of
ours where a man can “get away
from it all” and for those with the
inclination to do so, there is
nothing more invigorating or ex
citing. A week or so in the
“wilds” is sometimes almost
enough to give some fellows cour
age to face 8 to 5 existence the
rest of the year.
The world outdoors is yours to
use and to enjoy. Do so, but
don’t spoil your outing by getting
yourself “lost.” It happens, quite
often, through carelessness and
sometimes it ends in tragedy.
The “buddy” system is a smart
idea for swimming. It’s even
smarter for activity off the beat
en trails. Don’t go alone. Too
many things can happen: a fall
on the slippery banks of a stream,
injury through accidental dis
charge of a firearm—or getting
“lost.”
When you leave the beaten
paths, take a buddy with you;
take a compass; mark your trail
well and pause frequently to be
sure you know where you are
and in which direction you are
heading..
Be careful and you will most
likely have a safe, enjoyable out
ing.
It is said that someone asked
the famous Daniel Boone if he
had ever been lost in the woods,
to which the Frontiersman re
plied, “No . . . but I was once
confused for four days.”
