Girl Guides

At a recent Girl Guide gathering in Winnipeg, Judge Hamilton of the Juvenile Court said that there
was no more potent factor in the world for the benefit of boys and girls than the Scout and Guide
movement, and so we are proud to be affiliated with this great movement. As a School we have proven
its worth.

The Girl Guide Company has made good progress. Many of the Guides have become proficient in
flag signalling and all have worked assiduously towards efficiency badges.

We have missed the active and encouraging leadership of our Commissioner, Mrs. A. Charlton, who
has left us to reside in Vancouver, but who maintains constant interest in our welfare.

We also regret the resignation of our Captain, Miss K. Clarke, who returned to her home in
Vancouver, after four years as Senior teacher. Miss Clarke became Captain of our Company when it was
first formed and gave unsparingly of her time and interest to the development of the Girl Guide move-
ment at Coqualeetza. We are greatly indebted to her. Miss D. Milsom, who was Lieutenant last year, is
now Captain.

This year we found it necessary to forego our Easter camp in lieu of other school activities but
we hope that next year we shall pitch our tents once again by the shores of Cultus Lake.

Brownies

Our good fairy Pinky Winky was quite late in coming to us this year and so the 16th I.O.D.E.
Coqualeetza Brownie Pack was quite late in getting into uniform.

Marjorie Wilson, Rita Brown, Katie Moon, Laura Lewis, Edna Quocksistala, Josephine Williams,
Evelyn Williams, Emma Bolton, Edith Williams, Jean Walker, are second class Brownies. The newly
invested Brownies are Hazel Boss, Dorothy’ Charles, Lily Leo, Sybil Modeste, Clara Reid, Agnes Modeste,
Irene Williams and Wilma Matheson.

Pinky Winky rushed in one day not so long ago to tell us the 16th I.O.D.E. Brownie Pack, a
Kamloops Brownie Pack, very much wanted to have a toadstool just like ours, so good fairies began work
at once and in a Pinky Winky while off went a toadstool and we are glad to say it Was even more
beautiful than ours. But Brownies are that way, you know, they make things better.

Back came such a beautiful pink and gold letter of thanks from those Brownies far up North, and
with it a year’s subscription to “The Guide.” Just now our Brownies are anxiously waiting for the first
issue to appear. What an incentive for next year, thanks to all those wee Brownies far up North.

Pinky Winky has some fine plans under way for the re-union next September and some better ones
for the years work to follow and so she hopes to see all her Brownies back again ready for a year of

laughter, fun, frolic and work. Don’t forget one wave of her wand and back you come, one and all
big or small. ‘

The Trip to Harrison Hot Springs

T HE events of the last day were hurried through as quickly as possible to allow time for the visiting
teams to view the Fraser Valley and later to visit Harrison Hot Springs. The trip was made possible through
the kind co-operation of the Chilliwack Board of Trade and other friends, who provided cars for the
occasion. The tour was conducted through the city of Chilliwack, Cheam, Rosedale and Agassiz. Here
the boys and girls were taken to see the Government Experimental Farm. Keen interest was exhibited in
the various phases of the work. Continuing the trip they crossed the Fraser River on the new motor ferry
and soon arrived at Harrison Lake. Of course everyone’s first interest was to sample the waters from the
famous Hot Springs. Then the party was conducted through the grounds and shown various places of
interest. Boat rides on the Lake completed the trip and a tired, happy group returned to @oqualecesaico

prepare for the banquet and presentations.
