Suffice it to say, we wil neyer forget the wonderful ex- periences enjoyed. 1On Thuraay, Aug. 8th, they àrrived at Emsdale by train, bus, car and even private air- cralt, from many countries of XQrope, South Arnerica, United Mtates and Canada. They were registered at the Women's In- .titute Hall and supplied with sandwiches, coffee and sot drinks and then were trans- frrred to the buses to be taken tob the Campsite and assigned te one of the sub-camps which were named Micmac, Bella Coola, Cree and Iroquois.

La- bels had been ripped off, irn- proper addresses had becen put on at tic poart o! cntry and ib was actually days before eaci person had their own luggage. However, 250 Canadian Girl Guides had been working lu the camp for several days, pitching lents, and getting things in readiness and truck- loada o! ground sheets, sleeping bags and blankets were sent eut te ternporarily take care o! those without luggage and na eue seemed disturbed or wor- rîed over their loss. On Friday, the day o! tie of- ficial opening of camp, an air o! excitement and anticipation was feit, as cars bearing re- presentatives cf tie Press, and dignitaries from ail over bie Province began to arrive. A group o! Guides from each o! the 48 ceuntries represented, took their places at a signal at the base o! the 30 foot flagpoles, which carried their nation's fiag. At a single word of com- mand, eaci delegation tugged at a rope whici broke eut ticir standard, allowing a brisk breeze te whip the flags fuli blown in a sudden blaze e!f celer. The girls frorn the four sur- rounding camps into which the 1500 Guides iad been ushered on arrivai, formed a great cir- cie around the flag-staffs. Foi- lowing the first-impressive un- furling, there was a hush as the World Guide Flag was raised by a Canadian Guide, an honer reserved for a representative o! the nation playing host bo the Worid Camp. Then Mrs. W. Rankine Nes- bitt, Canadian Commîssioner and Camp Chie! weicomcd al present. With her were guests o! houer, Hon. Elien Fairclough, Secretary o! State, represent- ing. the Federal Government and Counteas Estelle Bernadotte e! Swedeu, represemting bbc World Council of Guides. Foliowing the official opening, tea was served in the four lr'ge sub-di- visions o! the camp. - Hon. Elien Fairclough ad- dressed thh massed Guide cern- panies at the monster campfire lu the evening and in coucîrd- ing ber remarks said "You wil have te beach those wio cornei mter you as you are being baugit, that pence builds oniy on friendship.

In her welcomc as Camp Chie!, Mis. Rankine Nesbitb said: "It is a great pleasure for mue to welcome 1500 camper. te our Centeuary World Camp in Canada. In 1954, at a World Conference in tic Netherlands, Ib was agreed tiat 1957, the oue-huudrcdth anmiversary o! tie birth o! Lork Badeu-Pow- ell, would be cclebrated by ,four world camps. Canada ex- btendcd a warm invitation, which was accepted, for eue of tiese camps te be held In this country. Thc other blirce are in the Philippines, Switzerland and Great Britain". "For two years we have been plannin for our camp. We choseiDoe Lake, the Ontario Guide Training Centre, as a beautiful and suitable place te hold il, and have developed the ~site and added te the buildings in order te accommnodate suci a large numnber. It is n source o! great happiness te us in Can adiarx Guiding that s0 many countries were able te accept our invitation te corne te thîs camp. The main purpose o! ths camp is living close te naturel and learning ta live witi peo- pie from ail parts o! tic world -thus the camp tieme "Worldl FYriendship". Countess Esteile Bernadotte, widow of United Nations me- diator Foike Bernadotte, isvce- president o! tie World Associa- tion o! Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. Sic bas cross:ed the equator four times Ibis centen- ary year, twice on a trip te a Guide camp in South Africa and twice te the World Confer- ence' meeting in Brazil. Iu welcoming tie Guides, she said: "How alike wc ail are. I've found tint birougi Guid- ing ib takes juat as long for a quart o! milk te saur in Swe- dem (her home) as it does in Ceylen." In conclusion, she remarked, "Children want ta be recoguiz- cd for good aciievements. If they can't fiud thal recognition, the3> will try te be receguized in other ways and biat's why delinquency is such a preblem in bic worid boday.- At this point, a Canadian girl, Suzy Taylor e! Vancouver, lit tic campfire, as darkn.es fell arouud lhe great company o! m-otiouiess Guides, who sati lu rapt attention despite tic Suzy used a partly burned faggot from tic Philippines Werld Guide Camp, lield in January, te light the first Doe Lake campfire.

Those Who couid swin over 100 yards couid go oi overnight canoe trips and i was a glorious sight in the ear13 evening to see as many as 5( canoes on the lake. Those whc could flot swim quite as w"l1 were allowed on overnigh hikes, and it was usually quit( a weary group walking baci into camp each morning, aftei what in most cases must havi been a sleepiess night. On Sunday morning, ail cam* pers attended Church Servic, o! their own choice. Protestani and Catholic services were helc in huge marquees around th( grounds. Jewish, Moslem, Mor. mon, and other religlous de. nominations arranged their owr morning religious services. Ii the evening a Guides' Own Ser. vice was held and ail Guide.x worshipped together.

Folk dancing with girls from 10 nations in their color- fui costumes. They sampled favorite foods from each coun- try prepared by the girls over their charcoal burners. They sat down in the even- ing around a campfire and watched the girls from eacli nation present a play or skit in their colorful dresses, dancing and singing and having a won- derful time. Many o! the girîl present had brought their ac- cordions, ukeleles, and othei musical instruments and all day and haif the night somewherE on.the campsite, groups of girls were singing together. The girls from Greece were teaching our Canadian g iris the mystic dance called Misiriou, the Bahamians taught them the Calypso the girls from Mexico, Chule and Cuba the Cha-cha- cha. In return they were being taught to jive, the Charleston, ,the Mombo. To quote 4 Commissioner from the Philippines: "When 1 see girls o! ail colors and ail na- tions isînging together so hap- pUly, it does something ta me. It makes me feel that maybe we are doing our share for world peace. I think that things like this camp are maybe more effective than talks at the Un- ied Nations." One of the highlights for the Guider staff, was an oid fash- ioned hoe down sponsored by the Canadian Guider camp staff for the visiting Guiders, in the Community Hall at Sprucedaie. A well known cafler fromn North Bay was brought in and ta the tune o! ail the old fashioned square dance numbers, every- one from East and West, North and South joined ln and had a hilarious evernng.

Now a word about the Com- nittees, through whose com- bined efforts this camp operat- ed so smoothly.- To the Quartermastering Com- nittee under the leadership o! Mrs. Harold Lount, Metropoli- tan Toronto Comniissioner, fell le important job o! ordering nd supplying ail the food for the camp. This wà% ordered through Eiliott's general store in Sprucedale and delivered daily by truck and not one unce o! anything was bought utside the Province.

One and a balf tons of char- coal ln 5 lb. bags were deliver- ed each day. Nine to fifteen bags o! mail were brought in ronPost Office daîly. To the 1ofus who handled it, it was a strenuous job, but it had its. compensations, for in driviiig on the campsite ail day, we had an ideal opportunity of sec- ing ail the groups working to- gether, to visit and enjoy meals with them. To the Sanitation Committee fell the responsibility of taking care of matters pertaining to water supply, garbage, and the daiiy scrubbing o! 63 latrines. To the Housekeeping Com- mittee the job of daîly sweep- ing and cleaning ail buildings. Whether of high or low rank, ail worked cheerfuily together, for the privilege of attendmng this camp. As mentioned before there were four sub camps. Each sub camp was divided into two hubs, divided in turn int four units. Each unit had four pa- trois and each patrol had nine people, adding up to a total of 1600. Each hub had its own Trading Post where souvenirs of ail descriptions could be purchased. There was also ai canteen on each hub, where soft drinks, hot dogs, coffee,i films, etc., could be bought. A Press tent was set up where1 reporters from ail the well known newspapers gathered daily, as well as representativcs1 from the television and radioj stations.

To quote them "we are prepared te deal in everything from Hai- tian Gourds, ta Rupees from Pakistan so that foreign Guides wiil be able ta change their own money into Canadian and deal at the trading posts. A 16-bed Hospital, with two lady Doctors, and 14 Nursçs in attendance was fully equipped for any emergency. To assist in traffic problemns and on any other occasions that migit arise, 15 Ontario Provin- cial Policemen were detaiied to help the Camp Chie! and staff. Seventy Rover Scouts fromi their camp nearby were assign- ed to duty as night patrols around the campsîte and on thc water front, and we enjoyed several o! their campfires. A place o! interest to many o! the girls was '"Canadiana." The exhibit, prepared and loan- cd to the camp by tie Royal Ontario Museum, includcd spec- !iens o!
