THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SEPTEMBER 30, 1923—PART 2 |1egistetion to give commanding o -| Gaitls ard Their Aflairs. Conducted by Helen H. Fetter. HE Girl Scouts is an organization that means a great deal in the lives of many girls all over thé world. In the United States alone there are nearly 126,000 who are enthusiastic members of the Girl Scouts of Amer- fca. In Washington there are be- between 800 and 900 girls who belong to this organization Of all the phases of scout work there is probably none that is so uni- | » versally popular as the camp life that the girls enjoy in the summer months. In many cases in local troops mem- bers have glven basaars.and other entertainments to raise funds to send such members as could not otherwise afford camp life for even a week, to the scout camp at Magnolia, Md Now, according to an announce- ment issued by the National Council \of Girl Scouts in New York city, two important conferences on Girl Scout | camps have been arranged. One, the western conference, was held in Min- neapolis, Minn., during the past week. This conference was primarily for leaders in this work in the western states beyond the M issippi river. The second conference, to be held * this week at Briarcliff Manor, N. Y., will be the center for the interests ot the eastern representatives. Miss Louise Price, national camp director, has supervision over the discussions of both conferences. * ¥ % % Cmmxx\-xoxp;ns, camp committee members, camp directors and captains directing camps, as well as others interested in the scout camp development, were Invited to both sessjons. At the western conference there was the additional advantage of working directly with the forest rangers One of the features of that confer- 3 €nce was the illustration of methods $used Ly the Minneapolls scouts in developing attractive evening pro- srams for around the campfire, uti- lizing songs, ballads and Indian leg- At the conference this week, two Jhours daily will be devoted to prace Vical demonstration work of summer amp programs, featuring wooderaft, A\ games in the open, and nature lore under the direction of Prof. Francis of the department of forestly recrea- tion at the New York School of For- wstry, Syracuse, N, Y Both conferences aim exclusive the needs of Girl Scout s and discuss the progress of types of cumps conducted by the organization to date. These types include permanent camps, those con- ducted for ek-enders, those for hikers and overnight camps such as that in Connecticut, which is oper- ated on the daily system and used b: Scouts who are unable to keep in ac- tive touch with the troop captains during the summer months. e TAVEN though school and all its at< Iltendant duties are well under way. the lure of the woods Is even more inviting than during the hot summer ths. Many girls not in this organization, as well as the Girl Scouts themselves, Indulge in week end hikes to nearby woods and along the river and canal. There ix no sport quite as fascinat- ing and satisfying a& camping com- bined with hiking. It Is to he hoped that at these conferences of one of the largest organizations having the interests of the American girl at heart, the leaders present will not overlook this matter of what might e termed intermittent camping. Many izirls who do not possess the money or time to enjoy real camping, appre- ate immensely an$ arrangements wherehy they may have the leasure of week end trips. GIRL SCOUT NOTES HE last big event of a very suc- cessful yvear was celebrated by the ‘girls at Camp Bradley, Magnolia, Md., with a program of events on Saturday, September 1. The girls had as their guests their parents and ‘friends and several members of the Girl Scout Council. This day was named “Bradley day,” in honor of| Mrs. Joseph Bradley. Swimming con- tests were held between the Wash- ington and Baltimore scouts, with the ‘Washington scouts as the winners. Then there was a basket ball game between the two groups, in which the Washington scouts were not so fortu- nate, for they lost with a score of 10 to 18, { One of the chief attractions was a \Jiature exhibit, showing various speci- mens which the girls had collected and recognized and labeled with names. There was also a very in- teresting exhibit of leaves which the Is had collected from the trees at % Maxwell Point. Another . noteworthy exhibit composéd of articles made by the girls while at eamp. At campfire that evening several of the girls had the honor of recelving the letters “C. B.” which they had won by earning the 100 points re- quired. Among the visitors were Mr. Mrs. Charles R. Lindsay,- jr. Helen R. Scudder, Mr. and Mr to_consider m el a was and Mrs. Jo- seph H. Bradley, Mrs. E. E. Norwood, Mrs, Robert L. Bailey and others. Among the recent troops to resume meetings for this year is Troop 15, of which Mrs. A. W. Bennert is captain. Malvina Bandel is scribe. The meet- ing was held at the Wallach School. The following girls will be regi tered in the troop: Emily May, Mil- dred Koffler, Dorothy Couthoudt, Olive Cridler, Hester Yowell, Virginia Dyk- - er, Emma Aman and Malvina Bandel. of handicratt | NEW WORKERS Mixs Ruth Vesta Pope (left) a have just joined awsociation staff.

NAMES FOR GIRLS And What They Mean LEANOR is a very attractive name for a girl. It has s its meaning “light.” Helen and the various forms of that name also have the same meaning, so that frequently Eleanor is considered a form of Helen, but more generally it is considered an entirely separate name from Helen. There are authorities who have sug- gested that Eleanor was originally an abbreviated form of Magdalen, but this is not popularly belleved to be so. Probably one of the reasons for this is the fact that Lina, or Lena, is the nickname for Both Eleanor and Magdalene. As a_matter of direct fact Lina,is the | oldest from of Eleanor and was ap- plied by the ancient Romans to the goddess of flax. In the middle ages it was elaborated to Eleonora, and from this name the English gradually evolved Eleanor,” Leonora, Annora, Linot and Annof. It is interesting to find that_the Irish name, Eileen, is a form of Eleanor. Other variations of Eleanor are the Slavonic Lenka, Hungarian, Ilon: ancient French, Alienor: German, Marcellina. Elly, Lina and Nora are » final grand party om September 1. n of | ARMY AND BY M. H. Army. That the operations of the budget system are responsible for the failure to carry out the provisions of the national defense act, is the opinion of many Who have made a thorough study of the question. Providing appfopriations for the Army of the United Btates, includ- |ing the three components, rests entifely |with the bureau of the budget. No |longer is Congress advised by the War | Department general staff as to the cor- rect needs of the military establish- ment with respect to strength of the Regular Army or the appropriations therefor. Part of section 5 of the na- tional defense act which prescribes that 'a study be made in the War Department | general staff on legislation pertaining to | national defense, reads as follows: | “Whenever any plan or recommenda tion involving legislation by Congres | affecting national defense or the reo: | ganization of the Army is presented by !the Secretary of War to Congress, or to one of the committees of Cohgress, the same shall be accompanied, when not { incompatible with the public interest, | by a study prepared in the appropria , division of Yeral staff Including the comments and { recommendations of said division for lor against such plan and such per- | tinent comments for or against the plan {as may be made by the Secretary of | War, the chief of staff or individual of- | ficers of the division of the War De- partment general staff in which the plan vas prepared.” Fallure to carry out the above pro- vision rests entirely with Congress, and it goes without question that officers who have devoted their lives to the service augmented by the experlence gained In the world war are best able to advise Congress as to the actual mili- tary needs of the country. Gen, Pershing last week disapproved the adoption of the distinctive shoulder insignia for the diffcrent War Depart- ment branches, due to the fact such markings are unnecessary during peace time and also that the department does not desire that the uniform of the regular establishment be overly deco- rated. Another reason for the disap- proval was that if one branch was per- mitted to wear a distinctive insignia, all |of the other arms would be clamoring {for one respecting their branch of the service. For some time the infantry personn at Fort Benning have been wearing the traditional infantry heraldry design with the bayonet pointing upward with the words “Follow Me" inscribed there- on. A recent post Inspection, it is beileyed, made by the inspector gener- al's department, brought up the au- thorigation for the wearing of this shoulder patch. such a distinctive mark has a tendency to greatly increase the morale an exprit de corps of an organization, but the, War Department has disapproved the wearing of this distinctive Insignia and it will in all probability be shortly order. Members of the Washington branch of the Infantry Association are preparing for a busy fall and winter socfal season been agreed upon are: October 13, pi nic at Fort Washington: December 7, dance at Washington barracks; Febru- 16, smoker to be held some place in Washington. Approximately seventy-five sty dents are enrolled in the enlisted specialists’ school of the ordnance de- partment which will be given at Raritan Arsenal beginning Oectober 15. The lack of transportation funds s greatly interfered with the a tivities of the chool and considerable difficulty has been experienced in sending this number of enlisted men to take the instruction. The course of instruction will embrace auto m chanics, artillery mechanics, mechan- fes, blacksmiths, carpenters, small arms repair mechanics and a number the organization of ordnance tenance companies and companies, heavy maintenance. Maj. Gen. Charles 8. chief of infantry, left September 25 for Camp Perry. where he wlitnessed the concluding events in which the infantry team will participate _at the national matches. Lieut. Col.

Before returning to Washington, Gen, Farnsworth will main- battalion of the 10th Infantry. This week War Department special orders announced the assignment of Lieut. Col. George M. Russell, gen- eral staff, as the military attache to Mexico. Prior to his appointment to his new post, Col. Russell was on duty at headquarters of the 8th Corps area. Fort Sam Houston, Tex. Before r orting to the American embassy at Mexico City, Col. Russell has been ordered to report for temporary duty in G-2 of the War Department gen eral staff at Washington. Preparation by the gemeral staff of mobilizing regulations have been PE—————— various nicknames for Eleanor. Eleanor has an extremely hopeful sentiment, “prosperity’” being given a8 her motto, and her flower is, oddly yet consistently enough, the delicate blossom of the wheat. Eleanor has been & popular name for royalty and was particularly fa- vored by the house of Plantagenet. At the time it was most popular with that house other people were only allowed to bestow it by “royal p flege.” It is now generally used all over the world. One of the most famous roval Eleaors was the daughter of Geoffrey, third son of Henry II of England. Geoffrey was Duke of Brittany jthrough his wife Constance, daughter fand heiress of Duke Conan IV. Therefore this Eleanor, who spelt her name Eleonora, was called “The { Damsel of Brittany Eleonora of Este was .an Italian princess, a friend of Tasso, the fa- mous Ttallan poet. Eleanor of Cas- tile was the *sister of Alfonso X and the wife of Edward I of England. Eleonor of Provence was the daugh- ter of the Count of Provence and wife of Henry IIL : { " Eleanor, or Alienor of Aquitaine |was the French heiress to the duchy of Guienne. She married Louis TII of France in 1137, was divorced .in i7152, and married Henry II of Eng- land, He, however, imprisoned her in 1173 for a period of sixteen years. This clever queen was of a gay na- {ture and lover of poetry and art. Her first husband was of a distinctly ascetic nature and won _little sym- pathy from Allenor. She accom- panied him, however, on the second crusade to the Holy Land in 1147, but he complained bitterly of her interest in other men; wherefore, the ree. % A femor is said _to have loved her British husband, Henry II, very de- votedly She had a large family of children. However, he was so un- faithful to her that her love turned to hate and it was she who incited her sons, Geoffrey and Richard Coeur de Lion, to turn against their father. She was imprisoned until her hus- band's death, when she was released by his successor, Richard I. Alienor was then placed at the head of the government while the ruler was on 2 long voyage to the Holy Land and it was she who negotiated his mar- riage with the daughter of the King of Navarre, and went to Germany With money to free him from cap- tivity and pay his ransom. She af- terward retired to the Abbey of Fon- tevrault. The troubadour poets of that day made this adventurous queen the subject of many of their lays and treated her quite differently in their song from the way she was treated by the French and Norman poets. Eleanors have inspired many poets, principal among them being Tasso, Dryden_and Edgar Allan Poe. Op- eras mbout maidens of this name | have been written by Verdi, Doni- zettl and Beethoven.

Section 2 prescribes the responsibility for the preparation and execution of mobili- zation plans. Section 3 specifically covers the mobilization of the three component of the Army of the United States. Section 4 authorizes a test system of mobilization, which in- cludes the Regular Army, National Guard and Organized Reserves, which will enable the War Department to determine whether or not any_ par- ticular unit is capable of perform- ng its part in the mobilization. Prescribed by these regulations, the test mobilization of the Army of the United States, which is scheduled for next September, will demonstrate how the Regular Army, the National Guard and Organized Reserves will function in an emergency.

The necessary number of men in the mentioned grades have been d and promotions to master, technical and staff sergeants have |again been authorized by the depart- ment Navy. Marked imbrovement in the per- sonnel situation, which for months past has been causing departmental heads deep concern, has resulted from the widespread discussion and steps taken by the department. Wholesale desertions, scarcity of re-enlistments and other disagreeable features that | reached such a point that it was be- coming increasingly difficult to keep the Navy manned up to -authorized strength, are far less menacing now few months ago, For in- st the percentage of re-enlist- ments as shown by the reports for August is 73, as against 46 per cent shown last April Attention of the entire service was centered on this matter some time ago by a_speech made at War Col- lege by Capt. Richard Leigh, assist- ant chief of the bureau of navigation. Basing his statements on a compre- hensive study of existing conditions and replies to a questionnaire sent jout to all commanamg_officers, Cant. | Leigh gave startling figures on de- {sertions, increase of court-martials, failures of enlisted men to re-enlist and other factors in the menacing personnel situation. This was follow- ed by a movement to get at the rea- sons for this condition and to rectify them Capt. Leigh has just returned from a trip to the west coast, where he went over the onnel situation and discussed officers afloat ways and fmeans for closer co-opera- tion between the bureau and the fleet on personnel matters. Based partly on thé information he secured, an {important _conference was held ' this week, with the Secretary, assistant secret chief of operations, the | judge advocate general and the chief | and assistant chief of navigation par- ticipating.

It was decided to have a rep- resentative of the bureaus of naviga- tion and supplies and accounts make a thorough investigation and submit to the Secretary a report and recom- mendations, Handling of enlisted men: This im- portant question was discussed very extensively, and it was decided for the bureau’ of navigatiop to expedite the work, now well urder way, of getting up its course of instruction on this vital subject. Comfort of enlisted men: The ques- tion of making living conditions aboard better, one source of consld- erable complaint, was considered and plans for adding to the men's coms fort aboard ship outlined with par- ticular reference to the question of proper sleeping facllities and means for stowing clothes. The five matters were the princi- pal ones brought out by the recent discussion as to the causes for un- wholesome personnel situation for which remedies must be fought. Lieut. Commander Robert M. Griffen, for a considerable time the chief of the administrative division of the bureau of aeronautics, has been detached from the bureau and assigned to command the destroyer Marcus on the west coast. He left Washington thls week after a service in aviation here that covered @ period of three years. Through an error in the statement that Capt. Cotten was to succeed Capt.
