Tfim keep happening in Humberlea, we know that, but unless you tell us, we don‘t know about them. At our January 8th general meeting, we decided upon a proâ€" gram of guest editors for the column. Just in case the flow of news continues to be only a trickle, we Q.houEht that a guest editor each week would help your original editors, Ed Rushbrook, aided and abetted b{ Ted Hough, keep the column filled, and perhaps touch upon items of community interest not covered to date, or give a new &l:nt to matters already discussed. e following volunteers will be taking over the column on the dates eation; like the Community Asâ€" sociation, its continuance depends on the mmrt of all Humberleaâ€" ers.

At the Court of Honour held this past week the Patrol Leaders disâ€" eussed the possibility of opening the Company to new recruits. After discussing the pro‘s and con‘s for somé time a vote was taken, and it was decided to accept up to five recfuits. A competition between Sixes can be a lot of fun, especially when each Brownie puts her best into it. We experimented with this in the Pack last year for the month of January, and it was so successful that we have decided to try it again on a larger scale; the competition to last for six months this time. The new lineâ€"up of Brownie tests should prove very interesting, The Brownies enjoyed the balancâ€" ing test, some.finding it very easy to walk a straight line for 15 ft. without looking, The Golden Hand test now calls for two singing fame-. The whole pack entered into the fun of learning a new one. The Competition results for the first meeting were very close, so Brownies, as all the Cubs sayâ€"DO YOUR BEST The new Second Class tests were also discussed and some of the girls are already working on parts of their tests. Some of the girls are now quite proficient at semaâ€" Whove, and tosts will be Arfanced things we hope will be usefu either to ourselves or others. We have a "Magic Jar‘ which stands under the Toadstool. Little squares of cardboard denoting the colour for each six are used as counters. When a Brownie wins a point for her Six, she drops it into the jar. If a Brownie loses a point she takes one of her own Six colour out of the Jar and gives it back to evening the points are counted and ma.rkeg on a sheet of eutdbo:;:'l. All Brownies who are in their own Sixland when the whistle blows at 6.30 p.m. win one point. Uniforms, inspection, conduct, and games are all sources of winning or losing points, _ L â€" Girl Guides Owl. ~ At the end of the a mstto& of comâ€" an addition to the â€" «alike.
