Mrs, L. W. Currell, superintendent of the C.G.LT. in Simcoe Street United Church, presided for the program and the Rev. E. Donovan Jones and Mrs. George Sanders, president of the Leaders' Council, also spoke briefly. Camping has not changed much in the last 20 years, Miss Pitt pointed out; there are the same games, stunt nights and camp songs now as then, The seven parts of the law of the campfire were given as follows: Seek beauty; give serv- ice; pursue knowledge; hold on to health; be trustworthy; glorify work and be happy. "Do every day two things you don't want to do," was one bit of advice Miss Pitt gave her hearers. Two other quotations from her speech which many girls would remember were: "I can never hide myself from me" and "Nature is an expert certified accountant." Then came Henry Van Dyck's words re- garding work, "This is my work, my blessing, not my doom." Speaking of the rule, "Be happy," Miss Pitt caused a smile when she said, "You don't own your own face; it belongs to other people; they have to look at it." "Challenges With Poem The poem, "If," with which she challenged would-be campers and | all the girls in the C.G.L.T. will ap- pear on this page tomorrow. The Rev. Mr. Jones brought greet- ings to the banquet from the church and urged that the mothers of the girls give the Mothers' Auxiliary to the C.G.I'T. their full support. Mrs. George Sanders announced that in one of the city churches a program will be given June 2 to raise the $100 needed for the C.G.ILT. camp before the end of next month. Mrs, Currell presided for the fol- lowing toasts: The King, proposed by Mrs. Leonard Vann, chief coun- sellor of the Explorers; the mothers, 'proposed by Miss Patsy O'Reilly and responded to by Mrs. W. D. Ar- nold; the visitors, proposed by Miss Helen Longbottom and acknowledg- ed by Mrs. Clayton Lee; to the girls, proposed by Mrs, Earl Adams and acknowledged by Jean Winacott; to the Anxiliaries, proposed by Helen Oliver and responded to by Mrs. Fred Coleman.

Sturdy enough for every day! In popular new shades! ZELLER'S LIMITED-- Hosiery Department They were Miss Pitt, Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Clayton Lee, pres- ident of the Woman's Association of the church; Mrs. Fred Coleman, president of the Mothers' Auxiliary to the C.G.I.T.; Mrs. Allen Cooper, president of the Junior Auxiliary, C.G.I.T.; Miss Cora Harvey, chair- man of the missionary committee of the church, and the press rep- resentative. The tables were attractively de- corated with blue tapers, daffodils and red roses.' Place cards showing nimble "fingers added greatly to the appearance of the tables. The girls of the C.G.I.T. supplied the food for the banquet, Mrs. Currell an- nounced, and the Young Women's Auxiliary to the C.G.LT. served. Samples of the handcraft done by the girls' were exhibited. The ar- ticles included baby's knitted wear done by the leaders in training and intended to be sent overseas, and also shellecraft and composition brooches and earrings. Gay posters on the walls were done by the girls who recently studied India. ! An account of the Mother-and- | Daughter banquet would be incom- plete if the young Explorers whose heads scarcely reached the tops of the tables were not mentioned. There is no doubt that some Ca- nadian Girls in Training begin their training very young--and apparent- ly enjoy it, too.

Most of the preliminary arrangements for a formal dance are up to you so if you're planning to go, let's do it right with smooth "know-how": Invitation--Invite your date to a formal dance at least two weeks in advance go she'll have time to shop for a dream-dress, if necessary. Simply phone her- or see her at school and ask her if she can go to the prom. Write to her, if she's out of town. Correct clothes--Make arrange- ments to rent a tuxedo, if necessary. This includés a dress shirt and turn- ed-dcwn collar, With it must go a black bow tie and studs for the shirt, black socks and black shoes. If a tuxedo isn't necesary, wear § dark suit, preferably navy blue, with a White shirt, conservative tie black socks and black shoes. A sports jacket js out: it won't do if the dance is formal and the girls wear long dresses. Week beforehand: 1--Phone, see 2 or write to your date to remind her of your prom plans; this is to let her know that you haven't forgot- ten the invitation, 2--Unless your class has banned corsages, ask her thie color of her dress so you can or- der a corsage that won't clash with it. 3--Make arrangements for trans-: portation--the family car or share a friend's car (if much distance is involved, offer to share the expense of the gas). If no cer is available, remember that girls would rather go in the bus than not at all. 4--Exchange dances with other boys who are planning to go, in- cluding 'seme that your date knows if pecsible. Make out a temporary dance program on per before- hand, copying it later on the offi- cial dance program. It's more fun to exchange dances than to dance three or fcur#hours with the same person; girls prefer it, too. For help with personal problems write to Elinor Williamg at this pa- per, enclosing a stamped, self-ad- dressed envelope.
