1965 January 28, GUIDE-BROWNIE ASSOCIATION MEETING Commissioner of Aguasabon District, Mrs. Shirley Mikus chaired the annual meeting Monday evening of the Local Association to Guides and Brownies held in the Recreation Centre. Reporting first as District Commissioner, Mrs .Miku listed 101 Guides and Brownies in Terrace Bay. En- rolment had dropped considerabl y due to the lack of trained leaders this past year. No recruits were accepted while Guiders were being trained. At present there are nine warranted Guiders and train- ing sessions were conducted by Mrs.Lois Downey and Mrs.Mikus of Blue and Brown Guiders respec- tively. The most notable change in Guiding is the uniform which must be completed by March 1967. Other changes are being instituted in test work and the addition of 'and Country' to the promise.

Of particular pleasure as Commissioner was her attendance at the Gold Cord Ceremony for Bonnie Hamilton.

Three Guides had been successful in earning their Pioneer Badge after Pioneer Camp and Guider Pat Downey had gone to Pioneer Camp at Doe Lake. During the year the Guides donated to the May Badanai International Bursary and Brownies collected nylons for the Rehabilitation .Centre. They were visited by Mrs.Gunn, Provincial Area Commissioner and Thinking Day ceremonies were held by both Guides and Brownies. Mrs.Mikus thanked the individual workers who had contributed many hours of effort to Guiding and closed with a report on Local Association meetings held monthly at the homes of niembers, supporting the Guide Association.

Mr.Mann said that the post office is cooperating in re-directing mail to taxpayers who may have changed their address since last filing a tax return. "We're already getting queries at our office from people who haven't received their returns, " said Mr.Mann. "Some think that because they haven't been mailed a form they don't have to file. I'm sorry to dash their hopes-=but they do. Anyone who doesn't receive a 'Personalized' tax return can get a blank unlabelled return at his local post office. Also, if a person loses his 'Personalized' return, he can get a blank form from his post office." Fron now on employers will be responsible only for handing out T4 slips to their employees showing their income and deductions.

Sale of licenses in this district has been slow and it is expected that many will find they have to wait in line at the last minute rush.
