tion: EX-PATROL LEADER] [Illustration: VII. FLOWER CRESTS FOR TROOPS] FOOTNOTES: [8] Any Captain can form a Junior Audubon Club by applying to "The National Association of Audubon Societies," 1974 Broadway, N. Y. City. The club dues are ten cents annually, per member, and must be paid for by the Club. If 25 or more belong, the Magazine "Bird Lore" will be sent. [9] Note: Scouts in non-glacial regions may apply to Headquarters for other tests in preparation. [10] This must be passed on by National Headquarters. SECTION XIX REFERENCE READING FOR GIRL SCOUTS The following books have been selected for the Girl Scouts with two ideas in mind: first, to list some of the best books of the world, with which all persons should be familiar, and second, to give books that should easily be available in all parts of the country. In some cities the Public Libraries have "Girl Scout Shelves." Has your library one? In some places the Libraries have Reading Clubs for young people, conducted by the boys and girls themselves under the guidance of specially trained librarians who know just how to help bring the right book to hand, on any subject a Scout would be interested in. In Manhattan there are no less than thirty such clubs in connection with the various district libraries. Why not have one of these in your town? The American Library Association, whose headquarters are in Chicago, Ill., at 78 East Washington Street, will help to bring books to rural districts and places without regular public libraries. Write to them for help if you need it. The Congressional Library may be called upon at any time for bibliography on any special topic. The books in this section are in addition to the special references for Proficiency Tests in Section XVIII.
