ASK A SCOTSMAN ABOUT "DOCTORS' SPECIAL!"
To ask a. Scotsman if he knows "Doctors' Special lteliable Old Scotch Whisky is like asking him if he & heard of ltobbie Burns. This fine okl whisky, and the firm that distils it, have been famous in Scotland for generations., . But it's not only Scotsmen who are incises of whisky. "Doctors' Special' is supplied to tho House of Lords audi the leading Loudon clubs; all over the world it is favoured by men of taste and discrimination. See that you get "Doctors' Special"—from any good hotel or hottio store. '
captain of a Girl Guides' troop be expected to look after them if, they were not distinguished by uniforms? Another point in favour of a uniform was that it did away with inequalities amongst those comprising tho troops which might exist in the case of tho parents of girls who weie better, off than those of other 81 A difficulty which the movement had to face, was that of securing officers. In this connexion it was iplendid to hear what had been said of the sacrifices tho present officers were making, especially those girls who ha* "to earn their own living. It was, therefore, all the more the duty of. those girls whose time was their own to come forward and fill the gaps that existed. It seemed to her Excellency that this diuicultym would be soon overcome if the movement was better understood. It was good for Girl Guides to have some work to do outside their own homes to benefit others, and she considered that the girls who had done so had been well rewarded in the knowledge of it. Her Excellency did not know how far in tho Dominion they had progressed in the direction of forming local Associations, but it was essential that the movement should have behind it tho support and sympathy of tho public. In conclusion, her Excellency assured the Association of her best wishes for its future success, and also that of the whole movement (Applause.) Brigadier-General A. W. Andrew, hon. .Chief Commissioner of the Boy Scout movement in the Dominion, expressed pleasure at the great progress that was attending the efforts of the Hon. Mrs Rhodes and her assistants.. It was interesting to note that it was in the Dominion that the movement first started. At the beginning, however, it did not make the progress expected of it, but the Girl Guide movement of to-day was going ahead most satisfactorily. He stressed the importance of getting a wider co-operation of men and women with the movement; no hole-and-corner lines would do, he said. It was, therefore, gratifying to see so many present at the first annual meeting. The idea of the Girl Guides' movement was a good one—to do something for themselves and at tho same time to assist those in need of assistance. He thanked her Excellency for the encouragement she had given all those associated with Girl Guido work by her presence at the meeting. On the motion of Mrs Rhodes, a vote of thanks was passed to her Excellency for her attendance, the proceedings concluding with the singing of the National Anthem.
