which the Girl Scouts will share the
proceeds of the tickets sold. The peo-

their Girl and Boy Scouts. The girls|
as yet have not had an opportunity of
showing the public some of the splen-

heard of by them before. They will|
come back prepared to assume leader- |

benefit of camp instruction. Let us
make this show a success and attend. |
Your patronage will be greatly appre-
