New York, Dec. 19.-With only four
business days left before Christmas

various stations on Sunday and the
final tremendous cleanup on Christ
mas Day and Tuesday. 1t will be
scant time the carriers and other New

celebrating Christmas.
Wagons and automobiles OF all sorts
have been engaged for the work of de-
livering the holiday mails, with their
various compliments ranging from
souvenir post cards to four-pound
packages. Moving vans, delivery wag.

pressed into service by the agents OF
the government to bring joy and glad.

Outgoing mail is now going out in

ON the second day OF westward faring
the railroad man, whose business fol-
lowed him wherever he went, had In
structions to meet Mr.. Hardwick Nc
vickar, his vice president, in the I'LL

Of the following day Blount continued
bis journey alone.
Twenty-four hours later the expatri-
ated westerner had crossed his Rubi-
con, otherwise the clay colored stream
OF the Missouri river, at Omaha, and
had@sntered upon scenes which ought
to have been familiar-Should have
been and were not, so many and great
were the changes wrought during his
fourteen years of absence. In the
smoking car he fell into talk with a
prosperous looking man whose thin,

At first their conversation was bald

seemed, was a mine owner whose

litigation which first drew Blount be-
yond the commonplaces, the awakened
interest being wholly professional.

Scouts recognized the potent influence
hero worship has upon boys, by giving
the impetus to their activities, through
the imitation Of the healthful out-of-
door life led by pioneer heroes, so the
founders Of an organization for girls
should consider the womaniy qualities
and provide forms OF expression which
do not simply copy those Of the boys.
but which bring out the fundamental
fact that through all the ages woman
is the conserver of the home. of the
fire as symbolic of the home, whether
the fire is campfire out of doors or
the hearth fire Of the dwelling. The
nucleus of the home is the fire and its
guardian. Activities to arouse what is
most womanly in the girl are to center
around the camp fire and the hearth
fire and appeal to the girls instinct to
please, as the boys impulse to compete
is made the basis of his activities.
This instinct to please will be util-

presses itself, namely, through the per-
sonal appearance through making
beautiful objects, and by doing kindly
deeds. Under these heads the work to
be tried and the activities to be fol-

PROMINENT NEW YORK MEN AND
WOMEN ORGANIZE "THE CAMP
FIRE GIRLS OF AMERIcA"-sUc-
CESS OF THE BOY SCOUT MOVE
MENT PAvEs THE WAY Fob
THE NEW ORGANIZATION, BUT
METHODS WILL BE DIFFERENT

Plans now are being made for tenn
porary organization called The Camp
Fire Girls of America which may de-
velop into a national society in the fail
if such a step seems justified. The
aim Of the organization is to provide
for girls outdoor activities correspond
ing to those furnished boys by the Boy
Scout movement. 1t seeks to encour-
age a greater interest among girls liz
exercises in the open with the three
fold aim of developing their bodies
minds, and characters. It is recog-
nized, however, that the activities pro-
Vfded for the girls must be fundamen-
tally different from those of the boys
and that special attention must he
paid to the home. Keen interest in the
organization for girls has been aroused
because of the great influence already
exerted by the boy scout activities.
Hero-worship has been the keynote
to the success of the boy scout work
The movement has spread rapidly be-
cause the leaders have recognized that
fact and have enabled the boys to see
in the scout work in the woods and
within doors that they have an oppor-
tunity to do the things that the heroes
of their favorite story books have done
While thus being trained physically
and mentally under the supervision OF
a trained scoutmaster, they are Unfit
enced to be more courteous and are
taught to understand the value of SER
vice and the true things OF life.
The aim OF the Camp Fire Girls OF
America is to develop womanly quail
ties In the girls. It is appreciated that
activities must be provided of an en-
tirely different character from those
arranged for the boys, but 1t is hoped
that the aim of character building Will
be attained. The leaders in the girl
work hope to get many girls interested
In camps and outdoor life this summer,
with the view of testing the principles
they have worked out.
Several Meetings Held.
Several meetings OF prominent men
and women have been held In the Hor-
ace Mann School, Broadway and l2oth
street, New York, and a temporary or
ganization has been effected. The
chairman OF the committee Is Mrs.
Mary Schenck Woolman of Teachers
College. Mrs. Charlotte ]. Farnsworth

worth. is secretary. Other persons IN
terested In the work are Mrs. Edger-

man he found himself giving opinions
and laying down plans Of procedure
for the man who. investing In mines,
had apparently purchased more trou-
BILE than profits.
Into the cleft thus opened by the AZ
OF business the hawk faced man in
serted wedge OF cautious inquiry.
In addition to his mining properties,
he had been making investments In
timberlands-bad investments, he fear
ed, since the government had late
~ taken such a decided stand against
the cutting Of timber In the new for
est reserves.
Again Blount was good naturally
helpful. One Of his classmates In the
law school had been preparing himself
to enter the legal branch of the forest
service. and Blount had acquired at
second hand a working knowledge Of
the forestry situation in the west and
OF the legal status OF the western tim
Der pirates. Moreover, he had very
clear and decided opinions upon the
question Of the conservation OF the ma
lions timber resources, and he was
frank enough to express them emphat-
icaIly.
II he had been less unsuspiciuus he
might have remarked the quickened
attention OF the prosperous looking
person who seemed so willing to take
advice from q chance acquaintance.
~If you were government man your
self you could hardly put the case
stronger" was the smiling commentary
Of this person, who was as Jet name

cards should fall.

shrewd reply.

At the meetings already held 1t has
been pointed out that attempts have
been made in various parts of the
world to establish such an organiza-
ton. "The Girl Guides" has been
formed in England and Canada In
New Zealand there is a society called
Peace Scouting for Girls" while the
Girl Aids are in Australia. Work
along this line is being done by the
Health and Honor League under the
auspices of the Y. w. @. A. There is
a small group, called 1.-The Camp Fire
Girls" in Thetford, VT. 1t finally was
decided at the meetings that three
things were necessary: First, to es-
tablish a central committee to which
all persons interested might come Tor
information and suggestions; second,
to make available for distributing in
formation concerning what already has
been done, and finally, to defer the &C
tual formation Of the organization until
the study and testing of the various
plans that have been suggested can be
accomplished.
Mrs. FarnsWorth Talks.
Speaking about the new movement,
Mrs. Farnsworth, secretary, said:
From girls of all parts of the coun-
try comes the question to those in the
Boy Scout movement, What is there
for the girls that corresponds to the
Boy Scout organization? To consider
these demands, tentative organize
ton has been formed which may grow
into a national organization for girls,
in the fall, If plans which are to be
tried out with various groups, this
summer, seem to justify such a step.

that the activities for girls should De
