She told the Guides about a newly formed Girl Guide Company at the Lake- head Psychiatric Hospital in Thunder Bay. The Captain is Mrs. Dorothy Akram, who is also the District Commissioner of McVicker District in Thunder Bay. The group, of which Lorraine is a leader, is comprised of eight girls who are mentally retarded. Most of the girls have difficulty moving their hands and arms. Miss Belliveau pointed out that since it would take these girls a long time to learn the Guide Promise and Law, the Leaders have put the words to the tunes of popular children's songs. The Terrace Bay Guides were very interested in this, and also what the L.P.H. group did at their meetings and activities in general at the hospital. At the close of the meeting, on behalf of the Terrace Bay Guides, Ann Crockford present- ed Miss Belliveau with ten Trillium Patrol Badges, for the L.P.H. Guides.
