SOUTH JUST ARRIVED Full range of Ladies' Fall Coats ang ,Dresses at the FASHION SHOPPE 84 Shucoe Street South District Captain of The Rotarians, in their desire to become better acquainted with the work that is being done in the in- terests of the young girls of the city, procured as their speaker at their noon lunghecn yesterday, one who is perhaps the most wide- ly associated with girls in the city, and in whose interests, is giving much of her time and energy, Mrs. Gordon Ratcliffe, District Catain of the Oshawa Girl Guides. Mrs. Ratcliffe has been associated with Guide work throughout Canada for the last sixteen years. Since coming to from Toronto, where she had a large company of Rangers, she has done much to put Oshawa Guiding where it should be. Her talk yesterday was brimming full of information about Girl Guides, Beginning by tracing the history of Guiding from its origin twenty years ago, when the girls of the world found they wanted to follow the call of the "Piper of Pax" as Sir Robert Baden-Powell is called, into the paths that he had led the boys of the country and which had re- sulted in the forming of the Boy Scouts, Mrs. Ratcliffe told how the "Piper of Pax' had said that they could not follow, but that he would 'blow another tune on the same pipe," and hence, in 1909, the first company of Girl Guides was formed in England. It was only one year later that Canada took up the great work and the first Canadian Guide company was formed in the city of St. Catharines in 1910. Since that time Guiding has become world- wide and at present one half mil- lion girls are enrolled in the Girl Guides. Thirty-one thousand of these are in Canada. "What is Guiding?" was answered by Mrs. Ratcliffe in her address as peing a form of deeviopment of citizenship and character moulding. Mrs. Ratcliffe explained the work carried on by the Guides, and how, in their work, nature study, nature games and life in the wildwood are stress- ed and dwelt largely upon. She also explained how the girls are largely self governed, They have one of their own number as patrol leader and any guide who has a" suggestion to offer or a complaint to lodge, may do so and her patrol leader brings it up before the court | of honor or Guide Council, It wag | something new to many of the lis- | teners to learn that there are four | thousand Girl Guides in Canada, | who have never attended. or even seen a Guide Comany meeting. These are called Lone Guides, and they are made up of girls, who have read or heard of the wonderful things Girl Guides do and so, by a system of letter writing, have be- come Guides and are linked up with the others in the work. Many of them are girls living in the re- | mote prairie provinces. There are | companies of Guides, too, of crip- | pled children, mentally deficient children and, what is mare, wonder- | ful blind and deaf and dumb chil- dren. Mrs. Ratcliffe told an in- teresting incident of blind children | receiving a message in Morse, en- | tirely by sound. The latter part of the address dealt with four things that have | made Guide work successful and the four things which have induced the speaker to become so ardent a supporter, of the movement, The first of these is romance. There is romance in its origin, there is rom- ance in its association with the out- of-doors, there is romance in the | very uniform worn by the Guides, | because, said the speaker, "It is dif- ferent from the ordinary dress that girls wear to school"; and what is most important of all, there is ro- mance in the fact that the move- ment. is headed by a real Princess, Princess Mary. At this interval Mrs. Ratcliffe told of the gift of Princess Mary to the Girl Guide Association which she gave after her marriage , It is a wonderful country home, '""Foxlease" by name, but it is also called "Princess Mary House," It is situated' in Hamp- shire, England, and is used as a Guide School, where all the year- round officers of the Girl Guides may go for a period of a week or two weeks and live, and get instruc- tion in Guide werk. It was the privilege of the speaker to have been, for one week, the officer In charge of "Foxlease." This is the only time such an honer has been given a Canadian Guide. Another virtue of Guiding, says Mrs. Ratcliffe, is that it is good psy- chology. It is a 'do movement," there are no don'ts. Girls are trained in the Guides to do the things which are recognized as es- sentials in carrying out the highest ideals in life, Its third outstand- ing feature is its pedagogy. It has been said that the Boy Scout and Girl Gilde movement is the great- est educational movement outside the schools. So highly is it rated that it has been incorporated in the curriculum of McGill University and is part of the teachers' training at Columbia University, Many of the boarding schools throughout the country are introducing Guiding to their students, Lasty, but of great importance, is the fact that Guiding is an inter- national affair. Girls in nearly every country in Europe have he- come interested in the Guide move- ment and have taken it un with keen enthusiasm. ' The same ap- plies to the Boy Scout movement, Mrs. Ratcliffe closed her informa- tive address with a quotation of Robert Cecil when he spoke some time ago in Convocation Hall, To- ronto, and said he believed 'hat world peace depended upon such in- ternational youth organizations such as the Junior Red Cross, the Boy Scouts and the Girl Guldes, The members of the executive of the Guide Coupcil of Oshawa were also guests of the Rotary Club yes- terday.

They were days of preparation. Frosts had not yet opened the nut husks, so that harv- est had not really begun, excepting | for such as stored away seeds. Impy and Mrs. Impy were among these, | There were certain seeds of which they were rather fond, and in one of their storerooms already there was a goodly supply. But, if the nuts were not ready for harvesting, there still was plenty to do to make ready for the harvest. Impy and Mrs. Impy looked over their storerooms. Impy thought they were good enough, but Mrs. Impy was not altogether satisfied "You know," said she, it would be dreadful to run short of food in midwinter." "T don't know meh about it." replied Impy, 'because I never spent a winter, I have always supposed that the general idea in the Chip- | munk family is to sleep all winter." i "True enough', replied little Mrs. Impy. "That is the general idea. But supposing you wake up a few times, whether you want te or not; and supposing you are hungry when you wake up. I'm afraid you wouldn't get to sleep again if you didn't have plenty to eat." Tmpy thoughtfully seratched his nose. "There's something to that", said he. "There certainly is some- thing to that. It is better to have too much than not enough. It is better to have gome left over than not enough to go around. I should imagine there would be a very com- fortable feeling in knowing that our storehouses were full." "Just so," replied Mrs. Impy. "We want to know that our store- rooms are, full, and we want tq know that our sforerooms are hig enough. There is nothing like thrift to give one a comfortable, settled feeling in life. I can't understand people who are not thrifty, No, sir, I cannot understand people who are not thrifty. Thrift is the foun- dation of success. Now, I think we'll enlarge these storerooms of ours.
