Girl Scout Night At Scout Hut Delights Troop 15

Troop 15 arrived at the Scout Hut at 5 30 pm Friday after noon and settled camp. They toured a decorated high school gym and ate corn chowder with sandwiches. They drew designs on linoleum blocks, glimpsed a future by a crystal ball, and shared ghost story caution. Edna Spivey woke early and breakfast followed by cleanup and undecorating. The group thanked Mr A A Duncan and Mr Haverstock for support and printing help. Tickets for Tapping Toes were sold by Mrs W A Thorne with guidance from Patricia Brown.
