Ce a Garden Yields Material For Local Hobbyist When Mrs. Deane Wilkes saw Some pressed flower pictures from California, two years ago, she de. cided to experiment with flowers from her own beautiful and un- usual garden. Mrs. Wilkes press. ed blossoms and fern leaves in blotting paper between heavy books, and then laid' them on paper tinted in shades to empha- size the colour of the flowers. Natural wood frames were tint- ed to harmonize with walls or background of the picture, "Pansies and delphiniums prov- ed to keep their colour and freshness better than other flow- ers," Mrs. Wilkes said, "while Queen Anne's lace is very effec- tive against a black background." Best results are obtained when the flowers are full bloom, al- though Mrs, Wilkes experimented with buds. Wild flowers are very dainty but their delicate tones fade quickly. Girl Guides By Mrs. Irven Fell The 2nd'Oakville Brownie pack held a very impressive meeting last Friday afternoon. It is known as the Golden Bar ceremony. To be awarded the Golden Bar a Brownie has to pass tests in the following: The Union Jack, how it is' made up, etc.; three knots and their uses; rules of the road; rsome nature study, sewing on buttons; darning socks; how to keep healthy; be able to skip; throw a ball; set a table for din- ner; keep their bedroom tidy for two weeks; and some first aid. Judy Stevens and Frances Fear- man have passed all these tests and were given the Golden Bar. Judy Stevens was given her Six- er's Braid, which can be worn by the sixer after she has earned the Golden Bar, Some people probably do mot know what a '"sixer" is. A Brownie pack is divided into groups, each having six Brownies in it. The leader of each group of six is called a sixer, A Guide company is divided into groups called "pa- trols," each with a patrol leader. At the same Brownie meéting, service stars were presented to Judy Stevens, Joan Eonner, Jill Brown, Joy Smith and Carol Pen- man. Service stars are earned by 80 per cent attendance for the year. - The leader of a Brownie pack is called a "Brown Owl" and her assistant is "Fawny Owl" Mrs, Cam Brown is Brown Owl of the 2nd Oakville pack and Mrs. C, Eastwood is Fawny Owl, These leaders work very hard With Brownie work and the little Brownie people take their meet- ings, which are held around a toadstool with a little owl sitting on it, very seriously. While play- ing games they really absorb a lot of useful knowledge. Mrs, Don Stevens, Mrs. sia Fearman, Mrs. H. Ww.
