# REPORT ON THE GIRL GUIDES: 1922.
The Commissioner, Lady Stubbs, was absent from the Colony during the latter half of the year. Mrs. Reed and Miss Warren resigned on leaving the Colony, and Mrs. Trobridge on grounds of health. Their loss has been severely felt. Miss Warren is now actively engaged in the movement at Home.
The following companies were maintained throughout the year: 1st and 2nd Hongkong, 1st and 2nd Kowloon, and Wanchai, with a total average enrolment of about 70.
The enrolment of about 70. This number is somewhat below that for 1921. The decrease is due to the shortage of officers during the latter half of the year, which made regular meetings impossible in certain companies. Miss H. Irving and I endeavoured to carry on with the companies affected.
The Peak and Wanchai Brownie Packs were maintained, and a new Pack was started at Kowloon. The total average enrolment was about 50.
On the occasion of the visit of H. R. H. the Prince of Wales, a combined Rally of Scouts and Wolf Cubs, Guides and Brownies, was held at Government House. His Royal Highness gave an address, and graciously expressed his desire that the embroidered panels of his sedan chair should be presented to the Scouts and Guides. H. E. the Governor kindly had them made up in the form of banners, and Lady Stubbs made the presentation to the Guides. The banner is to be held by the winning company at an annual competition on Guide work.
On the kind invitation of Lady Fowler, a display was held in April at Headquarters House, when exhibitions were given of country dancing, physical exercises, Guide games, camp-craft, first aid, and Brownie work and games.
Our thanks are due to Mrs. Sayer for lectures to the 2nd Kowloon Company on child nursing: also to Dr. Hickling, M.B.E., for lectures to the Wanchai Company on First Aid.
