Some Girl Scout history

Recommended Posts

The following is from a Girl Scout handbook, can you guess which decade it is from?

 

"You press a button and we do the rest" is the slogan of a famous camera firm, and really it seems as if this might almost be called the slogan of modern times; we have only to press a button nowadays, and someone will do the rest.

 

But in those early pioneer days there was no button to press, as we all know, and nobody to "do the rest"; everybody had to know a little about everything and be able to do that little pretty quickly, as safety and even live might depend on it.
