The on Saturday.

Rally took the form of an inter- Company competition for the Prince of Wales' Banner and there was a full attendance of Guides all keen to do their best.

The arst item of the competition was Company Marching, when the Guides put up a very amart ap- pearance. The second item was a Team Race incorporating questions on Guide work and proved to be quite a stim test.

Following this tea was served, and the Guide Association is in- debted to the Central British School staff for providing excellent fare prepared 121 the school kitchens, and for much helpful or- ganisation connected therewith.

FANCY DRESS PARADE After tes the girls returned to the fray, when there was a signal- ling and bandaging test. This was followed by the most spectacular event of the afternoon-a fancy dress parade, each patrol having dressed a guide in a costume en tirely made from coloured crepe paper. Astonishingly good results were obtained, particularly as the dresses were made in a very few minutes and the whole item was a surprise ona.

The last part of the competition was a Camp Fire when each Com- pany contributed a few minutes entertainment for the others.

Mrs. T. H. King, M.B.E. Colony Commissioner, in a few words then thanked Mr. Upsdell for his gen- erous help towards the success of the Rally; Mrs. G. A. C. Herklots. Assistant Colony Commissioner, for organising the entire competition and the various examiners who so willingly gave up time to the work. THE WINNERS.
