There will be a charge of 25 cents which will cover a portfolio in which to keep literature given out during classes and to help defray costs of an end-of-the oourse party. Additional courses will be carried on through the summer, Pike stated. He also noted that the Fire Department is not giving out names of baby sitters who have completed the course. It has been the practice in some areas to give a prospective client the names of four or five girls who are available for baby sitting. The local departments frowns on published lists. Pike stated that the number of girls interested in the courses plus the fact that the Fire Pre vention Bureau has received letters of commendation from both the Girl Scout Council and Col. James S. McAuliffe, county police superintendent, have been factors in continuation of this program. NOW OPEN IN DAMASCUS!
