The ; first article appears here.) ____jy| "WHY I AM A GIRL SCOUT" * By Jane Nystrom ^ My first reason for being a Girl Scout was the fact that I believe in girls' organizations where there is a feeling of sisterhood and ^ spir^of democracy among the girls, iyfr£^ij__ There is an age, I've been told, in boys and girls called the "gang" age, when youngsters like to get together in groups or gangs. Girl Scouts satis- fies this desire with its program of hikes, nature study and other outdoor activities. Then, too, Scoute has its serious side. We have work on tests and merit badges, which takes time and effort. Also, a Scout takes it as seri- ous business to live up to the promise _ and laws apd to do her "Good Turn " "Daily." â- â- â€"; ;:. The newly organized Council of the Wilmette Girt Scouts consists of Mrs. H. R. Hall, chairman; Mrs. A. J. Ny- ___stromr Secretary; -andâ€"Mrs. R. B.
