Through the mediumn of the radio, however, Hongkong last evening was given the opportunity of hearing all about the movement, especially in regard to its progress in the Colony, when Mrs. W. T. Southern gave a broadenst talk from the ZB.W. Studio.
In the enure of her talk Mrs. Southern said:
Guiding is an inspiration-All of us young or old need in this world some "vixion splendid" by which to keep our heart beating high and our eyes Hfted up to the hills. The everyday routine of life even when we are young ls apt to make us get into a groove and to be limited in our outlook, our friendships and our interests. Bat Guiding opens a door to friendship with all the world. One cannot help feeling that much of the international trouble artsen from want of contact. Guiding strives to unite girlhood all over the world in friendship and under- standing. At the International Guide Conference held in Hungary in 1928 representatives of twenty- elght Foreign countries and British Oversens Dominions met In the common bond. ford and Lady Raden Powell who are the Chief Scout and the Chief Guide of the World rule a kingdom larger than any king or queen. At the anish Jamboree the flags of thirty natious were dipped to Lord Baden Powell -an honour unique throughout the world's history.
