Baden Powell l

Of course a birthday celebra-

tion w ul not be c mplt with- out cali: and con the

- centre of the stage was a large

cake with a single candle which was lighted by Provincial Com- mission for Girl Guides. Mrs. Evelyn Cudmore.

Mrs. Cudmore in a short talk to the girls reminded them that the day was "Thinking Day" for Brownies and Girl Guiders. She felt that those associated with the movement should be giving thought to the great traditions ytrihlch have been handed down to

em.

WORLD SISTERHOOD

Chief among those traditions is world-wide sisterhood. The Com- missions told the girls if sister- hood could be better developed throughout the world it would do much to relieve the tension aral fighting which now prevails.

She termed Girl Guiding as one of -the finest youth movements in the world today. She said it! prea- ented perhaps the greatest chall- enge which can be made to wom- anhood.

A feature of the evening was the presentation of the Gold Cord lo Lone Guide. Beverley Ann MIC- Gregor of Graham's Road. The receiving of the Gold Cord is the highest achievement which any Girl Guide can attain.

IIIGII ACITTEVEMENT

The presentation was made by Commissioner Cudmoro who while noting the high achievement of this Guide said it signified in gen- eral that Mlss MacGregor an all- round person.

neighbor's house. Owing to the rapid spread of the fire. entrance to the barn was made with diffi- culty and only a few of the thirty- three head of cattle were saved.

Efforts by a large number of people to bring the fire under control were without avail. and only with great difficulty were they able to save the house. which was endangered for some time.

The total loss is estimated at 310.000 or 812,000, partially cover- ed by insurance.

HALIFAX (CPi-The premiers of the four Atlantic provinces an- nounced jointly from the four provincial capitals Friday that. "recognizing the need for continu- ing unity and action in an attempt toward solving the ovcr-all econ- omic problems of the four-prov- ince region." they will hold an annual conference in the fall of each year. The first will be held this year. It is their hope, the premiers said. that the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council will hold its an- nual meeting at the same time and in the same place as selected for the premiers' conference. The statement added that the premiers would have an earlier meeting late in April or early in May of this year to discuss the . ommendations made to them by their continuing commi we and decide upon appropriate action. The continuing committee, charged with the task of laying the groundwork for this sprl3 conference. met here sever

weeks ago. '

The decision of Premiers Mathe- son. Smallwood. Flemming and Stanfield to hold an annual con- ference on the economic problems of the region is a history-making step, said the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council in a at tement released Friday.

UNIQUE IN CANADA

At no time in the history of these provinces have the pre- miers set the psttern for such close consultation on a continuing basis. and innootber partof Canada is there evidence of such unity of purpose." the statement

says.

"We in the Atlantic Council. speaking for business and indus- try tbroaghout the region, are de- lighted with the strong leadership displayed by the leaders of gov- ernment. To have unity of pur- pose and action within business and industry is. in itself. an im- portant factor. but to have this unity extend through to top gov- ernment levels strengthens im- measurablcy the position of the - provinces in their approach to 1 building of a sound economy.
