Another hike was held with 3'1 guides tak- ing part, to Norris Pond where I regular Guide meeting was con- ducted, followed by supper, nature games. shore racing and finally a grand Camp Fire. Marshmallows were toasted and a rousing sins song. After all the fun the girls did iull justice to the eats. Joyce Clieverlo won several prizes for racing and every one present vot- cd ii. a wonderful hike. This is how Guiding should be whenever poss- ible, outdoors and camp fires. All Leaders should plan a few summer meetings for Brownies and Guides as weather in winter does hamper outdoor meetings. Mrs. P. Jenkins would be glad to help you and come along with the girls if you are short of Leaders. sour-is Guide Company is like many others short of funds, and plan on sellins candy to pay for uniforms and company expenses. .

Lone Guide Activities

Miss Carrie Holman and Betty motored to Bloomfield recently and had a wonderful meeting with the Lones there. They arrived at the Mill by 3.30 and found all the girls assembled. The R-ecruits went off with Miss Holman to pass their Tenderfoot test and one Patrol led by P. L. Betty Martin laid a trail while the others did nature work. Another Patrol led by Al- berta J. MacAusland followed the first Patrol to their hide-out in the woods. on the return journey they reversed the order. The fol- lowing guides passed this test: Betty Martin, Lila Craswell, Miarie Peters, Betty MacAusland, Lorr- aine Martin. Alberta MacAusland. Alctha Martin, Marie Gallant. Elaine Plateau and Barbara Mc- Kenna. suppertime next, and what a wonderful compflre to cook over. Betty, Lila and Lela were trying for the 2nd Class cooking test. They used the "H" form. rolled back the turi' and lined it with heavy stones. other Guides gather- cd wood and Betty and the twins cooked beans and toast. Lots of fun was had toasting marshmal- lows. I wonder if any fell in the fire or burned. some were a little I heard a whisper. Time to clear away the mess. turn back the turf and it was all done very neatly by the girls and they all passed the test. Guides formed .a horse- shoe on the bank of the brook with the setting sun at the back. After a sing song Miss Coyle in- troduccd the Recruits, to Miles Hol- man. who werc enrolled as "Lones" and it was a thrill for all the guides as well as the new ones, Rita Gallant and Norma Brown of Puisville. Several of the Guides are planning to attend Camp at Fernwood. our Lones or prince County wish all the other Island Guides lots of fun this summer until they are in the news again.

Assistance Arrives

The fire brigade from Matanc was the first to reach Cap Chat. a village without waterworks or regular fire crew. and installed pumps in the St. Lawrence half a mile away.

Brigades from Ste. Monts, Mont Joli and also arrived and drenched flaming area. with salt water.

Confusion reigned in the af- flicted district as men and women rushed away with what possess- ions they could save.

An elderly widow became hyster- ical. She was taken away by neighbors who explained she had lost everything.

Town officials urged people to move calmly to the convent of Les Filles Dc Jesus Marie, where food was being prepared.

One man, driving his auto out of the flaming area collided with another auto, injured his hand. His injury was the only one re- ported during the fire '

The fire broke out just a week after Cap Chat property-owners rejected by referendum a municipal proposal to spend 5200.000 for a sewer and waterworks system.

s

British officials said the pro- posals were "very welcome to us." They said Britain would try to follow the iecommc ” tions set down in the 3,600-word decision if Iran would agree.

But. Iran clung to its uncom-

promising determination to seize full control of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company's wells and refineries on the Persian Gulf. Britain had asked the court to propose interim measures as a matter oigreatesturgencylo stave off the threatened complete shut- down of her Iranian oil opera- ions.
