FIVE DAYS AT CAMP

Happy but tired, A Girl Scouts
climbed from the buses and eager
ly greeted their welcoming parents
a few Fridays ago.
The girls had worked hard and
done a lot of planning with their
leaders before leaving July Is for
Boisvert's where they were to en-
joy their first camping experience,
The first day in camp the time
was given to getting their bed rolls
placed in the large hall and some
began their K. P. duties.
During the second day the girls
commenced their classes in First
Aid under Mrs. r. w. LeDuc and
Nature Study under Mrs. H. S. Hep
ner. A Pajama Parade among the
cabins and through the cafe topped
the evening
After lessons the third day the
Scouts began their skits and cos
tunes by which they entertained
the guests who drove out from town
that evening. At dinner Mrs. LeDuc
and Joan Dennis were presented
with surprise birthday cakes and
gifts since each celebrated their an
niversaries that day.
The high light of the fourth day
was a trip to a historic dam in
trucks provided by Mr.. Boisvert.
The group divided in half upon
reaching their destination. One re-
manned at the dam while the other
half took lesson in compass study
by Mrs. LeDuc and then liked down
the trail. After dinner that ev-
ening Carol Brennan and Corrine
Petrusha met with an accident
when they tumbled from the dance
hall veranda into the lake. Carol
suffered fractured arm, and Cor
rine, who fell on her head, came up
demanding, Where are my bobby
pins?"
To the two gentlemen, who Of
fered a car and volunteered to drive
Carol and Mrs. LeDuc into Kalis-
pell, the Girl Scouts extend their
grateful thanks.
Friday, the final day at camp, the
girls busily rolled bed rolls and
packed suitcases. In general Fri
day was a day of preparation tc
come home.
The Girl Scouts desire to express
their appreciation to the members
Of the Senior Woman's Club and
others for their donations of fruit
Thanks goes also to the parents and
friends who made the camp a sue

ALASKA HIGHWAY
AGAIN IN NEWS

The Alaskan highway popped in
to the news again last week after
an announcement in Great Falls
that the province Of Alberta would
support any plan to develop the
highway.
The announcement prompted a
reply by Gov Ford who termed
the statement as encouragement for
the improvement and continued use
of the logical link" between the
United States and Alaska.
The governor early last month
said Montanans were 'gravely con-
cerned" over rumors that the high
way would be totally abandoned,
urged continued use and further
Improvement.
E. c. Gerhart, minister Of trade,
industries and municipal affairs for
Alberta, revealed the provinces
support of the road. He said AL
berta was prepared to make the
highway part of its main artery and
highway system
This is along our way of think
ing" the governor replies, "and is
what we want in Montana"
