Again our Scouts had an oppor- tunity to demonstrate their camping skills. We are extremely grateful to Mr. Gaarder Mr. William Duke and Mr. Donald H. Randall of Troop No. 6 North Tarrytown N.Y. for their skilled assistance in the camp construction. To the many other men who served with distinction in this project we express our appreciation. The success of any Scout Troop depends largely upon the Boy Leaders and a grand job they did. Credit must go to Patrol Leaders Lester MacLeod Herbert Karl Lyman Kipp and Charles Buckes. Edwin Stone turned in a fine job as Senior Patrol Leader. Assistant Scoutmaster Woessner and members of the Troop Committee were of great assistance in administering the program. We all look forward to bigger and better Scouting in 1946 with an ever increasing number of boys joining up so that our community can truly say: Young Men-Scout Trained-For Participating Citizenshipf

The main emphasis at first was placed on scholarship. Since many industrious, worthy students were excluded, scholarship requirements were somewhat reduced, and effort, service and attendance added to the qualifications. The regulations now make it possible for all ambitious, willing students to gain member- shrp rn the organrzatron When the organrzatron became so large rt was necessary to establish a governing bodv three degrees were formed namely the First Degree emphasizing attendance and con duct Second Degree emphasrzrng servrce and scholarship over a perrod of frve years, and the executive body consrstrng of ten members stressing leadershrp and character Durrng the year the rnrtratrons are conducted by the Thrrd Degree The Frrst Degree Inrtratron at which 35 students became members was held on October 24 The Honorable Walter G Seely was the speaker Sur prrse Honorary Awards were grven to Mrs C P Benedict and Miss Florence Egbertson In February movres were enJoyed by the members and plans are under way for the Second and Third Degree Inrtratrons To our faithful advrser 'Nlrss Helen Robbre we vrrsh to express our sincere thanks for her gurdance through an other successful year QST-XRTING AT LEFT proceeding around back of table!

The Lions Club of Ardsley continued its sponsorship of the Ardsley Girl Scouts: the newly organized Ardsley Girl Scout Association was enlarged: the Ardsley Players gave a benefit performance for the Girl Scouts to help them realize their dream of a scout cabin, and best of all the number of girl scout troops was doubled-there are now four troops! We are so proud of our Brownies. The slogan Every girl in Ardsley a Girl Scout has made many more homes scout conscious. The Brownies are happy in work or playg the Intermediates are learn- ing useful and profitable services to other people at all times through their badge workg they are stressing international friendship which is so timely and worthyg finally, the Seniors are wonderfully industrious with their shop course. Throughout the whole scout program this year there have been entertainment, sociability, comradeship, and a love for the good and beautiful in America-all seen through the eyes of Ardsley's Girl Scouts.
