National Girl Scout Week is
March ILL, with March II des-
ignated as Girl Scout Sunday.
On that day the Scouts usually
attend their own churches in
uniform. This year most of our
local Girl Scouts will attend the
11:00 am. worship service at
the Washington Cathedral,
where the founder of the Girl
Scout movement, Lady Baden
Powell, will be present. This
year is the Golden Anniversary
of Girl Scouting, and it is fitting
that its founder, on her visit to
the United States, should be
honored. She will be the honor
guest at a gathering on that
Sunday afternoon at 3 pm. in
the Departmental Auditorium,
en- Constitution ave., between
18th and 18th SITS, Washington,
at which a large group of Scouts
and leaders will be present to
meet and pay homage to their
founder. The gathering, how
ever, will not be an open recep-
ton, because of Lady Baden
Powell's health. She suffered a
heart attack last fall. and must
conserve her strength. AS a
result, only delegated repre-
sentatives of local troops will
be able to attend.
The annual Girl Scout Cookie
Sale will be starting on Friday,
