5-3. Ace Adams gave up the two
winning tallies in his 36th relief
appearance of the year.

by obtaining the aid of more WON.
en- could this be possible-and now
that we have had some response,
we are on the way to carrying
more fully our load of response
bility for the welfare of the girls
OF our country. More leaders are
still needed-and always will be-
because there are always m e
girls who want to be Scouts. The
leadership campaign is only be-
ginning-a shot in the arm to
awaken women to the war work
waiting to be done in the youth
conservation. Now that they re-
alize the need and the opportunity
for serving in Girl Scouting, we
expect that more and more will
enlist.''

She is say and cheerful and
fun to be with. She laughs lot,
and doesn't make anyone spend
time cheering her up.
She has found time to complete
business course, just in case she
should some day have to go to
work to care for her children.
She mayed that by going to
school at night when nelghoor S
high-school-age daughter could sit
in the house with the children.
Her success at living alone" is
based on one idea. In her own
words it is this: When John
comes home I want him to come
back to home that is still a
happy. going concern. want him
to come back to a wife who won t
be disappointing to him, and to
children who weren't turned into
problem children just because
they had to get by with one par
ent for while. If he shouldn't
come back a thing l rarely let
myself think about, don't want
to have my life in such a hope
less muddle I won't know where
to turn or how to earn a living
for my children"
That is the philosophy OF one
wife and mother whose husband
has been away from her for
long time. But it is one that any
such wife might find helpful.
1t isn't just men who have a
war record" Their wives have
a record, too. And it is worth
while making it one their men
will be proud to read when they
come back to take up family life
again.
