Work For Philippine Scouts
Girl Scouts of Troop 5, to-
gether with the new informed
late troop at Wesley House, met
Saturday morning for their first
Activity Day.
Activity days are for the pur-
pose of getting together and
working on one or more projects
the girls have planned for help
ing others. .3F
This weeks program was the
cutting and making of friendship
bags for the Girl Scouts of the
Philippine Islands. These bags
are to be filled with necessary
every day articles to us, but
articles of luxuries for the peo-
pie of those islands that have
suffered so much for the cause
OF freedom. Into these bags will
go such articles as thread and
needles, tooth paste and brushes,
buttons and pins, combs, etc.
The girls will sell Remem-
brance Cards and the money
earned from the sale of the cards
will be used to help fill the
Friendship Bags.
1t is hoped that every Girl
Scout in the city will make and
fill one or more of these bags
for some FILIPINO Girl Scout and
in this way we may be able to
establish more firmly our friend
ship with sister scouts across the
sea.
After a morning of much activ-
ity, the girls settled down to
enjoy the lunches they had
brought with them. During the
lunch period an article on the
Independence of the Philip
pines" was read which gave the
group a clear picture of the Fill
pinos of today. &
