There are now four flourishing For Brownic Packs, the Peak, the Gar rison School, the Quarry Bay and the Kowloon Packa.

It is interesting to note that. there is hope of starting the first Chinese Guide Company shortly.

Help From Home.

In November, Miss Trotter (District Commissioner, East Herts) and Miss Wanklyn, (Dis- trict Commissioner, Cheshunt) are coming to the Colony to con- duct a four months' training of Guides and Guiders.

It is interesting to realise that atthe present day the Guides throughout the world number 613,209. The success of the move- ment is greatly due to the "sweet reasonableness" of the leaders, Sir Robert and Lady Baden Po- well, who realise that Guiding in different parts of the world must be adapted to local conditions. Therefore in Eastern countries where Eastern girls join in this world-wide sisterhood, concessions are given to the customs of the country.

The keynotes of the movement are service for others, and cultiva- tion of womanly virtues. To quote Lady Baden Powell, "The aim of the Girl Guide Movement is to make ellefent future women citizens, good housekeepers and mothers."
