The organization known as the
Camp Fire Girls was founded by Mrs.
Charlotte Gulick. The purpose ol
this movement is to seek beauty, give
service, pursue knowledge, be trust
worthy, glorify work and be happy;
in short, that is, to work, help and
love. In addition to this is a social
organization to which rich and pool
girls alike belong.
Any girl over 12 years of age may
join a Camp Fire and become a Camp
Fire Girl. The local Camp Fires do
not have over twenty members. In
charge of the lire is a woman who
stands as leader and who is -called
Guardian of the Fire. Besides camp
ing and exploration trips, there are
weekly meetings, and a council tire
once a month for the awarding of
honors. To become a member the ap
plicant must have the consent of both
* parents and obey Camp Fire laws.
Some of the laws are:
Walk at least thirty-live miles
weekly.
Save food in the kitchen.
Do not have candy, sodas or chew
ing gum, but save money.
Care for some child an hour a day
for a month.
Learn what to do in common emer
gencies.

flowers, and whatever may contribute
to the attractiveness of the room.
A girl receives honors under health
craft, camp craft, nature lore, home
craft, hand craft, business and patri
otism. As honors are received the
girl goes from one rank to another.
The watchword is "wo-he-lo,” which
is derived from work, help and love—
the first two letters of each word.
The name of each local camp sig
nifies something, such as the Cordova
Camp Fire Girls’ is “Keegora Koza,”
which means “northern light.”
The Keegoya Kozga has rot gotten
its charter from New York yet, but
it is expected soon. The members
of our Fire are: Leona Churchill, Dor
othy Dooley, Alice Daggett, Gladys
Giles, Edna Thawley, Margaret Fos
ter, Gladys Hedges, Genevieve Ross
wog, Esther Hile, Minnie Thornston
son, Frances Fraisure and Elizabeth
O’Loughlen.
Mrs. Harmon is the “Guardian of
the Fire.” Presdent Woodrtw Wilson
is the honorable president, and Will
iam Howard Taft honorable vice
president.
A spelling test upon words known
as the “one hundred demons" was
sent out by Mr. Henderstn, commis
sioner of education, in March. These
words are so called bemuse of the
frequency with whch they are mis
spelled. Some time later the follow
ing records were received for com
parison. An examination if them will
prove interesting:
“The ‘one hundred demons’ test was
given in 19 elementary sclool systems
in 19 cities, representing eight states.
The total number of pupils in grades
3 to 8 tested was 20,551- Following
are the average records in per cent
for each grade:
“Third, 51.2; fourth, 67.2; fifth
80.i; sixth, 84.3; seventh, 89.1;
eighth, 93."
The records for corresponding
grades in Cordova are:
Third, 60; fourth, 64; fifth, 85;
sixth, 91.5; seventh, 89.5; eighth, 93.
The same test was given in eight
high schools in six cities, represent
ing five states. The total number of
students tested was 3,89k Following
are the records in per capt for each
grade;
First year, 94; second fear, 95.3.
