TROOP NUMBER SIX Lincoln Junior High Girl Scout Troop Number Six of the Girl Scouts of America was organized late in the Fall of 1924, under the leadership of Mrs. Foley, Latin Instructor, Who had taken a course in Scout Leadership at the University of Minnesota during the summer. The troop numbers fourteen, of Whom three were transferred from a for- mer troop at Willard School. The majority have passed the Tenderfoot Test, and are now working on the Second Class Test. The meetings are held every Wednesday afternoon and are devoted to Girl Scout activities of varying nature. Hikes are taken when the weather per- mits, giving the girls an opportunity to study nature under supervision. The girls are very interested in the girl scout program, and are working hard to earn proflciency badges in various lines. Several hope to earn Interpre- terTs Badges before June. Since the troop is new, it has not taken part in city activities, but the girls are very anxious to show their interest and to gain their share of the honors. They hope to participate in the Field Day Exercises in May, and are all plane ning and hoping to go to camp in the summer. 41
