Cook of Fair- port central area commis- sioner, right, chat with being presented with her fifteen-year star, Mrs. Gas- kell will become Central Division Commissioner Lucyna Kaczmarek, 17, centre, a troop leader with the Polish Girl Guides. This marked the first time in Oshawa Division Girl Guides To Be Divided At the annual meeting of the Oshawa Division, Girl Guides of Canada. Mrs. D. E. Fox, the division commissioner present- ed a summary of the year's ac- tivities and outlined proposed changes in the Oshawa division which will take effect at the end of June. There are now 11 districts comprising 37 companies and five companies. of Rangers. The proposed plan is to divide the Division of Oshawa into three divisions; North West, representing Rosslyn, Park: wood and Westport district and the 1st and 3rd Land Rangers; Central Division, representing Kingsway, Adelaide and Wilson districts and the 2nd Land Rangers and Air Rangers; South East Diyision, represent- ing Southdale, Conant and Eastwood districts and the SRSC Crusader Sea Rangers. In her review of the past 12 months, Mrs. Fox said that it was stimulating to see the ever - increasing accomplish- ments of the Guide members in Oshawa. "The quality of Guiding 'is reflected in the Guiders who so freely and voluntarily give of their time and who devote so much to the girls of our community. "The year 1966 found Cana- dian Guiding following the new program with increasing en- thusiasm. The new handbooks are proving very useful, and most leaders have responded to the need for improvisation dur- ing the change. Perhaps one of the changes hardest to adapt to, is the Guides leaving the company at age fourteen. "The foundation for plans for centenary year was laid in the fall and many projects are now in effect. The Brownies, Guides and Rangers are proudly wear- ing their centenary crest. Dis- tricts have chosen to make quilts which will be sent as gifts to our training centres around the world. The national council has set aside October 14 as a special Girl Guide good turn day for all of Canada. "Final plans are being com- pleted for the 1967 Heritage Camp for 2,000 on Nairn and Morrison Island in the St. Lawrence Seaway. We are de- lighted that we have two Guiders and fourteen Guides who will join in this camp and will be able to share their ex- perience with us when they re- turn. "The appreciation dinner and annual meeting last year had the largest attendance ever with 207 members. We are pleased to have Mrs. H. T. Cook of Fairport, our central area commissioner, present. Three Ways "It was. with regret that resignations were accepted from Mrs. William Edwards, Parkwood district commission- er and Mrs. Thomas Tipton, Adelaide district commissioner. We appreciate the work both did for the Guiders and mem- bers of their districts." All districts were busy dur- ing the year with division and district activities. Westport district opened a new Guide Company -- _ the 37th, which meets at St. Mary of the People Church hall. A highlight for Eastwood dis- trict Brownies was a trip to Toronto Library to see a Pup- pet show. Southdale district feted their Gold Cord Guides with a dinner party in June and held a revel for the Brownie packs in the district. Two pot-luck suppers and pool parties were held for Guiders and Local Associatiow members. Parkwood and Adelaide. dis- \tricts joined together for a |Christmas dinner 'party for Guiders and L, A. members. suppers as well as the usual mother - daughter and pot luck suppers. The district also re- \ported an increase of over 200 |badges earned over the year. Rosslyn district held a bowl- ing party of all the "Packies" and company leaders. The dis- trict also laid the wreath at the cenotaph on Remembrance Day. All districts participated in church parades and Thinking Day ceremonies,' and mother and daughter banquets. Over 1,700 cartons of cookies were sold throughout the division dur- ing Cookie Week. "Many Guides took advantage of the. YWCA's baby sitting course to qualify for the Child Care badge. We much appre- ciate the opportunity given our Guides to take this excellent training," Mrs. Fox said. "Since the revision and adop- tion of first aid and home nurs- ing material for tests and badges through the courtesty of St. John Ambulance at the na- tional level, many of our Guiders have availed them- selves of the lectures provided by the local St. John Ambulance Society and have obtained their Kingsway district held family| when the Oshawa Division is divided three ways. this year.

"It has been a privilege for me to serve as the division commissioner and the six years have slipped by quickly. My ap- preciation is expressed to every member for a happy, enjoyable term of office. "During the coming year, changes are planned in the divi- sion which will affect everyone in someway. We are positive) that the change is in the right direction and with the willing co-operation of all our members we will look forward with con- ifidence.

Exercise Care Tenderizing Meat EDMONTON (CP)--If your steak seems mealy, it may be over-tenderized. i. Foods specialist Judith Strang said in an interview that meat treated with powdered tender- izer cannot be kept warm too long without losing its texture. Tenderizing enzymes work most actively between 140 and 176 degrees--about oven-warm- ing temperature. If the cooked meat is held at this level, the tenderizer will begin to work again. Housewives need to know that the powder by itself will pene- trate only a fraction of an inch, said Miss Strang, who is assist- ant professor of household eco- nomics at the University of Alberta, It should therefore be "forked" in evenly, not pounded, and should be used on this cuts rather than roasts, Tenderizer should not be and Mrs, S.

I recently asked Marie Beynon Ray, the provoca- tive and spirited author of You and the Seven Arts. In exploring the seven arts in this book and in blueprinting different ways to develop a greater knowledge of sculpture, painting, drama, literature, mu- sic and architecture, Mrs. Ray has drawn: from the wide and broad canvas of her cation and cultural life.

From that day on, I knew what I wanted, and I kept pursuing my desire for beauty until I had an entire home filled with First Empire furniture." To other girls and women who want to enlarge their knowledge and particupation in cultural activities at the same time they advance their careers, Mrs, Ray has this to say: 1. Have enormous curiosity. 2. Inject yourself with the en- ergy that comes from doing things and being interested in the world around you 3. Use reading lists, museums (Specifics are blueprinted in her book.) 4. Learn foreign languages. 5. Travel abroad. NEED TO TRAVEL "I think you have to travel," she said. "and you have to go abroad. So tell your readers to do this if they really want to develop cultural interests. Sug- gest they work their way over and even travel by bicycle when they arsive, if that's the only way they can go. will be surrounded by culture.
