Nearly 100 Girls Gather At Trsity United Ohurch for Oolor Dodication By Rev. 8. Davison Nearly one hundred girls in- cluding the First and Second Company o! Guides, the Rangers and the Brownles attended Trin- ity United Church Sunday morn- ing on the occasion o! the dedi- cation of the Guide and Ranger cohours. C.G.I.T. girls were also present. After assemblng on the lawn the group marched into the church in a body. Rev. S. Davison con- ducted the ceremony, which is one suggested by Headquarters, and the service was moat impressîve. The girls sang a special Guide hymn and nepeated the Guide prayer. The folhowing girls formed the colour parties: lst Company of Guides - Doris Thompson, Audrey Grant, Nellie Parker, Myrtle Hall and Arlene Northcutt; 2nd Com- pany o! Guides - Irene Cunning- ham, Margaret and Lorraine Som- erscales; Rangers - Helen Cotton, Pst Emmett, Isobel Thompson, Betty Bettles and Celia Tait. The sermon by Rev. Davison was on the Girl Guide Laws. He impressed upon the minds of the girls their importance in the daily life, and how they could be ap- plied to future years. He also brought home the significance of such a group and how they couhd be an asset and pride to the com- munity at large. The leaders would hike to ex- plain, in answer to numerous queries, that Girl Guides, Rang- ers and Brownies are not alhowed to parade in public. We quote !rom the Rules: "Do not make themselves conspicuous in any way." Such a group may only at- tend public functions in a body, but are not allowed to parade on the street. Dr. H. B. Rundle o!
