If -Girl Scouting is to be a vital force in the community, if the igirls are doing worthwhile things, and if the leaders see new possibilities in the Girl Scout program, it is often because the local Council is accepting its challenge of pro- gram responsibilities. Every piece of work, if it is to be done skillfully, requires tools that are sharpened and ready at hand. The tools for making Girl Scouting available to girls of, all three age groups are to be found in certain basic facts regarding the girls themselves and the Girl Scout program. All the informa- tion that the community offers, and that the girls and leaders can supply, is pooled -by the Council and used to make the local pro- gram as stimulating as possible. Leaders and girls as they turn to the Council for idea and help in carrying out their plans, not only. find ways open for them but are made aware of new interests and possibilities; their use of the ma- terials brings suggestions for changes and additions. By cons- tant enrichment the material_ is kept timely and useful.

Bringing Girl Scouting to the girls of the com- munity is the privelege of leaders and local Council members work- ing together. The Program Committee is like- ly to have a most interesting and satisfying .part of the work in a community like Livonia, where informal relationship is possible among members of the Commit- tee, leaders, and program con- sultants, and where the contri- lbution of Girl Scouting is ap- parent to the whole community. There is usually a common feel- ing of responsibility and a com- mon sense of achievement and pride as the program develops. We are fortunate here that the out-of-doors is easily accessible, that persons in the community take a friendly interest in Girl Scouting, and that the Girl Scouts feel themselves a part of the com- munity and can see the results of their efforts toward making Livonia a better community in which to live. Activities outside the realm of standard Girl Scout activities are under the jurisdiction of the Pro- gram Committee. Visits to hos- pitals, churches, other cities, theater trips, etc., are some of the interesting sidelines planned by your Committee, which is headed by Mrs. E. M. O'Harra.

You will have great possibilities, 'but leisurely habits; and it will require a strong in- centive to force you into action. When you have once made up your mind, you will be firm and determined. Opinions strong and radical. Behind an outer strength you will conceal a dee-p, quite sensitive- ness, and dissappointment will not bring from you either bitter- ness or complaint. You will be too dignified to stoop to an ordin- ary quarrel. You will have a tendency to suppress imaginative fatuities and gifts and to distrust your in- tution. Your temperament will be naturally moody and sad, in dis- position, you will be gentle and even-tempered, affable and free, though somewhat quite in man- ner and anxious for the good opinions of others. April and August will be you lucky months and Saturdays your most auspicious day. You should marry a person born under Leo. A business association with Cap- ricgrn or Sagittarius would be to mutual advantage. The 'tulip is your flower and if you wear a sapphire it will !bring you quite happiness.

The reason, perhaps, is that this is exam week. Tuesday, Jan. 21, through Thursday, Jan. 23 the students will display their know- ledge. These tests will form one fourth of the semester grade. The bal- ance of the grade will be deter - minded by the work the pupil had done during the semester. These exams will serve as a review over the contents of the semester.

Grandma looks calm and collected as she poses for posterity, but she wasn't—not on your tintype! Getting her family ready for this picture was a long,` weary business. The day this photo was snapped, Granctma was up at dawn, wrestling with the old wood stove, coaxing the kettle to boil, cooking breakfast. And the day be- fore, she ironed the mountain of clothes that, had, ' needed such hard scrubbing. The day before that— But that was Grandma's life. She didn't know any, other kind. Her -way of housekeeping took lots of time, lots of elbow grease. In Grandma's gayest dreams she never imagined the time would come when a woman would have dozens of electric servants daily for the cost of a bar of soap. Electric service—ready and willing around the clock and calendar—is a modern miracle Grandma missed by being born too soon. But electrical dependability (and cheapness, too) didn't happen by accident. Not on your tintype!

The president of the Council, J. Livernois, will also outline plans for the forth- coming year. Election of officers for the ensuing year is on the agenda. The Nominating Commit- tee, headed by Mrs. J. C. Calhoun. has :prepared a slate of officers r the Board of Directors, and for the various committee jobs. The Council is now operating under the new constitution, ap- proved at the fall meeting of the Council, providing for retention of certain officers for one year and other for two year terms. In view of the comprehensive program .being :planned for the coming year, a large turn -out of leaders, committee members, and others interested in Girl Scout activities is anticipated. On the recreational side of the meeting will be the showing of the film entitled, "THE GIRL SCOUT LEADER.." The film in- terprets the role the Girls Scout leader in the neighborhood troop. Photographic sequences show the leader as a member of a national and international organization; the neighborhood troop as the simple unit of organization; troop sponsorship needed from adults in the community. Then the new leader is shown attending a train- ing course where the •basic aims and principles of the Girl Scout Movement are interpreted—the ethical code; the activity program; learning by doing; democratic troop government; and the recrea- tional approach. An invitation is extended to all people interested in Girl Scout- ing to attend this meeting. The Children's room at the Plymouth library has 1,584 fiction books and circulated 14,895 vol- umes las year. This was a turn- over of the collection of nearly 1,00 per cent.
