"" Automatic Safety-Loch Girl Scout News Girl Scouts have been under fire. Among the first to stand on the front lines of the war were the Girl Scouts of the Hawaiian Islands. They, like their sister Scouts everywhere in the nation, had been trained in defense work. For more than a year before the first hostilities, they had been growing and preserving foods, learning how to prepare meals in community kitchens and outdoors, taking First Aid courses, serving as messengers under the Civilian Defense Office, and doing all sorts of odd jobs which become tre- mendously important when cal- amity strikes. All of these de- fense activities have been an in- tensification of the regular Girl Scout program whose aim has al- ways been preparedness. Under the real test of war emergencies, our program for the girls of the nation stands up well. It meets a. definite need, both' in helping the girls take care of themselves and in making them of real use to their country in time of trouble. * 1‘ II: TROOP 7 Gale Ahlskog, Scribe Ellen May Noble brought a. treat of cookies to Brownie Troop No. 7 Monday afternoon.
