THE GIRL SCOUT: This week, Girl Scouts in Alaska and throughout the nation are celebrating their twenty-third year as a service organization, choosing the week of October 24 to 31 in honor of the birthday of their founder, Juliette Gordon Low, whose birthday falls on October 31. Out of the Boy Scout movenient which was found- | ed in England in 1907 by Lord Baden-Powell came | the Girl Scout organization. At the first Boy Scout | rally, held in 1909, appedred some girls who called | the United States and the totl membership was 137,012, By 1941, when the United States was attacked by Japann, the total membership of Girl Scouts in the United States was 670,380, and these girls offered theit services at once to President Roosevelt. The services performed by this organization have been invaluable in time of war. Deserting many of their more pleasurable activities, the Girl Scouts show up wherever they can do a, job. In Juneau, as all over the nation, they spend much time in making up bandages and dressings to be sent to the fighting fronts. In every drive to raise funds they perform valiantly. Not only does the Girl Scout movement provide a valuable asset in community service, but it provides also a wholesome outlet for the recreational desires of the future women of America, giving the girls, through the Girl Scout training program, the bas upon which to build a sound and happy life.

HEART AND HOME: This should be an active day in home tasks, the stars stimulating interest in the welfare of the family. It is not an auspicious date for starting new projects of any sort, because the judgment may not be trustworthy. The evening is most promising for informal social events.

While we realize full well that there are unfortunate wastes and extravagancies in. the Federal Government, we must realize, too, that to continue a national policy of deficit financing would be a dangerous and short- sighted policy. There will be much political opposition at this time to any move to boost direct levies in an effort {to make our national income gain on the heady pace set by national expenditures.
