The girls had been pregarinx
during their troop meetings during
the whole spring season for these
contests and had spent many hap
py hours at camp ahead of the
Skills contest in clearing their
camp sites, gathering material for
their outdoor fireplaces, fuel and
material for lashing up tables, wash
stands, ete. Rivalry between troops
was keen and the contest was a
very close one.
Judges for the First Aid, Trail
ing and Obstacle run were Mrs.
Grady Calahan, Mrs. George Ell
iott ana Mrs., C. G. Scrutchin,
Points were given for proper band- |
aging and handling of the imgain
ary patient, for bringing back va
rious planted objects along the
trails that had been laid and for
completing the obstacle run in the
least time per girl, and getting the
| fewest number of scratches and
bumps along the way.
Judges for the campceraft events
which included making a comfort
abie and attractive outdoor camp
site, cooking a meal for the troop
and cleaning up after it, were Mrs. ‘
Wayne Shields, Mrs. George Ell
iott and Mrs. J. J. Westfall and
Mrs. Richard Covell. Quality of |
food cooked counted heavily in
this scoring and the judges doing
the tasting reported the food to
be excéllent,
Troops winning ribbons in the
First Aid contest were Troop 30
first, Troop 7 second, Troop 6 and
14 tieing for third. In Trailing,
Troocp 3 came in for first place,
Troop 30 won second and Troop
16 won ;(I))ird. The obstacle run
found Troop 3 in first place again,
with Troop 16 in second and Troop
30 winning third. Jn Campcraft
Troop 2 won first, Troop 7 won
second and Troop 30 won third
place.
At the semi-annual Court of
Awards which immediately fol
lowed the Skills Contest around
200 proticienqiy badges were
awarded the girls. Several that had
never been won by Athens Scouts
before were given including the
Weather Badge, Aviation, Folk
Dancer, Nutrition and Group Mu
sician,
Highest awards went to the girls
winning their First Class rank—
the largest group in the history of
Athens Girl Scouting—they were,
Ida Myrl Messer of Troop 4, and
from Troop 7 Mary Ann Bell,
Nancy Coggin, Patricia Johnson,
Betty LeConte and Peggy West
fall. These girls have yet one rank
more to reach the top in Interme
diate Girl Scouting — that of the
Curved Bar.
The biggest thrill of the day
came in the announcing of the
winning troop for the whole day
of contests and the awarding of
the winner's cup. The winning
troop~had- - to- prie - up-the -most
points for all the contest. To the
surprise of every one, the young
est Girl Scout Troop—Troop 38,
had the winning score.
The girls ind leaders taking part
in the events want to thank Mrs,
(Claude Leathers, President Mary
Griffeth, Ida Myrl Messer, Sue
‘Underwood, Program Aides and
all the others who had a hand in
making that delicious pink lemon=
ade for their lunch, also Mrs. J.
R. Leggett who served as first
aider for the day, and to Mrs. J.
W. Scott who helped lay the trails
for the Trailing Contest, We were
especially glad to report that Mrs,
Leggett did not have a busy day,

Transform glasg curtains, draperies and faded apparel from drab
ness into colorful summer hues by tinting or dyeing thema at home.
Dyeing washable fabrics is simple and the results are rewarding if
an all-purpose dye is used and if the directions are followed with
care, A porcelain enameled dishpan or kettle is recommended for the
dyeing because its glossy finish is the easlest to clean.
Young Harris
Circle Two Met
With Mrs. Flanagan
Mrs. E. D. Flanagan was hostess
to Circle Two W. S. C. S. Young
Harris church on Monday night,
May Ist at her home on King
Ave. Mrs. Flanagan brought the
devotional in the absence of Mrs.
R. E. Eidam. She used as her topic,
“Serving in a Christian Service,”
she brought out several points of
how Jesus went about doing good,
and what it means today to be
busy in God’s service which will
surely be doing good in helping
others. She concluded her message
with prayer.
During the business session
quite a bit of business was dis
cussed as this meeting was the
close of June 1949-May 1950 year.
The circle pledge was paid in full.
Mrs., Flanagan thanked the la
dies for thenr cooperation in the
circle and said she had enjoyed in
serving as their leader.
Mrs. Curtis Doster brought a
beautiful Bible stidy on “Songs
of Praise.” The two characters in
this study were Hannah, the moth
‘er of Samuel, and Mary, the moth
er of Jesus. Scripture was taken
from Ist Book of Samuel and Ist
chapter of Luke. Both of these
women took time out to thank
God for what he had done for
them instead of asking for more,
and Mary said “my soul doth
magnify thee Lord.” This story, so
beautifully given by Mrs. Doster
was truly a great lesson for us
today. She closed her study with
prayer.
Mrs. Flanagan served delicious
refreshments of sandwiches, coco
mut macoroons, and punch to the
eight ladies present.

INDIA PLANS
ELECTRIC CREMATION
BOMBAY-—(AP)—lndia, origi
nal home of human cremation, is
soon to have its first electric cre
matorium in Bombay. The cre
matorium will dispose of bodies in
a few minutes instead of the hours
now required by the wood-burning
process.
Althou{h Mahatma Gandhi ad
vocated electric incinerators, most
Hindus are averse to any way of
burning except by use of logs or
at least charcoal heaps and cow
dung cakes. The municipality is
not certain the electric crematori
um will be immediately popular,
but counts on two factors to keep
busy. Ome is the large number of
deaths by the roadside -of poor
people. Fhe municipality now
buries them. Theother is the un
precedented cost of wood.
