Up-County Girl Scouts Set
For Cookie Sale Tomorrow

The Upper Montgomery Coun-
ty Girl Scouts will join Girl
Scouts throughout the nation in
beginning their annual cookie
sale on Friday, Mar. 4. Mrs. John
R. Harvey and Mrs. Robert Sher-
win are co-chairmen.
More than half the costs of
scouting are financed from the
proceeds of the cookie sale. In
addition to providing needed
equipment, more outdoor activi-
ties, and other program oppor-
tunities, the Girl Scouts want to
make scouting possible for many
more girls. They also need a new
camp site to accommodate the
growing membership.
There are two kinds of cook
les, chocolate thin mint and a
four-flavor sandwich creme. The
chocolate cookies were introduc-
ed by the Scouts last year and
this popular variety is available
only through Girl Scouts during
their annual sale.
The Scouts are each assigned
an area so that no family will be
called upon by more than one
girl. The sale lasts through Mar.

WHY NOT Az I. ~~PRINCESSE"?
EVERY YEAR Just about this time a mild excitement
decends upon the city of Washington, DC, as preparations
are completed for the Cherry Blossom Festival A monster
parade is staged, social functions are conducted, and the
highight of the Festival is the crowning Of the Cherry Bios
som Queen, selected from among sprincesses1 sent from
every State in the Union and the territories. To the best of
our knowledge, the Virgin Islands has never been represent
ed.
EVER SINCE the TRANSFER there have been in
stances and examples, all too many, Of failure to include
the Islands in matters which every other state or territory
enjoys. 1t is true that the standard answer of deficiency APP
preparation is always present, but that cannot remove that
sense Of neglect which accompanies each instance OF slight
or neglect.
1T WOULD NOT require digging deeply into history
in ordsr to come up with recurring examples. Vocational edl-
cation and particularly vocational agriculture never reached
these shores under the benefits of the ~Smith-Hughes and
other acts. The internal revenue escaped US altogether, and
there are others. And there can be no denying that an invita-
ton to sit in or take part in certain functions can do more
to create good will and win friendship than almost anything,
and it cannot be denied that the giving OF money anything
always solve all problems everywhere.
AS ! GOES on we cannot avoid hoping that one
Of the eprincesses" in the Cherry Blossom Festival will carry
across her shoulders the banner Of the Virgin Islands. And
that goes for other programs and activities. It is a wonder
fully wholesome experience.
