got from visits to life insur-
ance companies, Reinsurance

1.-THE enthusiasm, general
advice and general encour-
agement we met with were
astonishing" said Miss Biondi
whose career has included six
years with a life insurance
company. She also has done
radio and public relations
work and, in 1859, acted as
administrator for the Organ
izing Committee of the new
National Bank of Bethesda

Both Miss Biondi and Miss
Ferguson are long time WASH
ington residents. the former
being a native and the latter
an attorney here for almost
a decade.
Miss Kelso. who has worked
in both Oklahoma and Ari-
IONA, gave up a position with
a life insurance company in
Tucson to help launch the
new venture.

lection Just as much as men
do, she maintains.
Yet. of the $493 billions
Of life insurance owned by
Americans in 1858. only $65
billions, or 10 per cent, was
owned by women, she de-
clared.
This posed the question"
she said, "of why the most
security minded portion Of
our society proves the least
receptive to the guaranteed
security provided by life in
surance."
They Keep Them
Miss Kelso. the new COM
pany's vice president and
formerly an agent for a large
life insurance company,
stresses the statistics that
show women are good in
surance risks because they
keep their policies longer
than men.
This cuts down on the ex-
pense Of issuing and re-issu-
ing policies and women
should benefit from the saw
ing, she argues.
Miss Ferguson. general
counsel aud secretary, points
out that not only do women
live longer than men but
they number fewer suicides.
fewer mental breakdowns
and have, on the whole, bet
ter health than men.
Another factor which in
fluenced the trio to pioneer
in a new approach to insur-
ance for women is that. on
the average. women's retire.
ment incomes are lower than
mems. RETIREMENT incomes
are based on working incomes

which, in the case Of women,
usually are smaller than
men's.)
The result is, they say,
that women who live longer
must also live on less. ex-
cept where they have offset
the disadvantage by greater
thrift or investments such as
retirement income insurance.
Original
BY tailoring their policies
to specific female needs. the
three believe they can offer
plans that are original in
many ways in various cate
gories, such as wife. career
woman, young girl and the
college-bound child.
Their expectations are that
they will be able to go into
sales operations late this year.

Adding up some statistics
about women, a feminine trio
has come up with something
new in the insurance field
a company tailored to the
needs of women only.
The fact that members Of
the gentler sex live longer
than men-mortality tables
and other national statistics
put it from S to 7 years longer
OH the average-automati-
cally makes them better in
surance risks than men. the
three point out.
Nonetheless, they say. this
has not been adequately re-
f1ected in insurance policies
which. generally speaking.
are geared to the needs of
men.
Other statistics back up
their theory that women
should enjoy more benefits
from life insurance than they
are now offered. according to
Miss Phyllis Biondi, Miss
Jerry Kelso and Miss D. Deane
Ferguson.
So, after months Of inten-
sive research and legal work,
they are launching the Wom-
ans Life Insurance Co. of
America. Inc.-to insure
women only - which was
chartered last month by the
State of Maryland.

fuel. Mrs. Evans and Mr.. Hitch re-
minded US that it had rained the
night before, so we should remem-
ber that wet wood does not start
good fire. They explained that
dead limbs on tree was called
'Squaw Wood and would be the
dryest wood we could find.
After collecting our woodpile, We
got a piece of Pine and formed the
basic A On the top of the crossbar
we put a handful of tinder. 1t was
the first time some of us had ever
struck match. I'm sure we need a
lot more practice When the tindeT
was burning we'll we started add
ing kindling. This we placed in a
teepee formation to allow for a
draft. The next wood we put on the
fire was called fuel. That is the
wood that you can hardly carry
sometimes you even drag it.
We were taught to put a fire out
when we finished with it. A FIRE
is NEVER LEFT UNATTENDED.
The fire was let to die down and
the Goals scattered a little. Then
we splashed water on it, / mean
splash-not pour. Dirt was then put
on the Goals. No fire is Practically
Out: the fire must be OUT.

Knots and Lashing
While we were at Redden We
learned how to tie knots. We were
in the lounge, by the fireplace
Mr.. Evans taught us the square
knot, sheetbend, Glove hitch and
bowline. Mr.. Hitch taught us some
trick knots.
We learned that by taking two
sticks and fastening them together
with string we could make coat
hanger. First we found two sticks
one with hook and the other
straight. We tied a Glove hitch on
the hooked stick. Then we brought
the long end of the string over the
straight stick, under and behind
the hooked one. Then we followed
the square" that we had made
three or four times, always pulling
the string tight. We then wound the
string between the two sticks and
fastened it with a square knot.

Trail Laying
On Saturday afternoon, which
was like a spring day, four of the
First Glass girls were given fif-
teen minutes to lay trail in the
woods. The four of us went along
and put such signs as arrows in the
sand. We also scraped the leaves
away in spots for signs. We laid
sticks in the form of an arrow to
show our path. Even though we
laid false trails the scouts who
followed us had no trouble getting
back to the lodge.
Carolyn Kicker, Pam Erdman
For the Adventure Badge some
of the girls had to take a hike
show good manners in the out-of-
doors and observe the rules of the
road. They were required to learn
or know three games that could be
played ID Follow the Leader: (2)

leaders unloaded the personal gear
and set up the bedrooms.

were built at bout 700 p. m. every
one enjoyed their nose-bag lunch.

cause we had been quite busy get

Our first experience on the stove
was on Saturday morning. We were
scheduled to get up at six-thirty
but few Of us got up later SO
breakfast was "a bit delayed.
1t is a lot harder to start a fire
in the wood stove than to turn a
knob and start cooking. The. break
fast menu was French Toast, cocoa
and Bacon. Being that We were
especially hungry the food tasted
good in any condition. After the
first meal we caught on to the
trick of cooking on the stove and
the technic slowly improved. In
fact it was so good that we had
Pizza for lunch and Chicken fried
in Rice Krispies for another meal.
No one seemed to lose weight
therefore we think we did all right.
