N. Y. Mrs. Heminover Heads High Tor District in Girl Scout Council High Tor District of Girl Scouts had a double-header meeting Mon day night and expressed great sat isfaction at the results. TK q first part was held in Kirkbride, Hall, Letchworth Village, when leaders and committee women met to see that all was set for the third an nual Hi-Jinks carnival to be held there Saturday. Full of pleas urable anticipation, they all then went to the home of Mrs. James Campbell, where the Garnerville committee was hostess and the reg ular quarterly meeting took place. Amidst general acclaim, Mrs. Robert Heminover of Garnerville was unanimously elected chairman and at once took the chair and presided over the meeting. Mrs. HSminover has been special counselor of Troop 7 and won the devotion of the girls for never dis appointing them but being present at every troop meeting until they finished their course, and she has had valuable experience serving as a committee woman on Troop 7 and as a member of the county wide training committee. As chair man of High Tor District, she will become a member of the county council and represent the district at its meetings. The district also welcomed Mrs. Bart Corsentino of Stony Point as a new member of the public rela tions committee, on which she has been serving for some months, and this was her first chance to meet all the members of her district. Mrs. Bennett Lathrop gave a re port on the activities of the pro gram committee, as did Mrs. Fish er for Day Camp, followed by Mrs. T. L. McCulloch for Camp Rocky Ledges and Mrs. George Jervis for the plans for Hi-Jinks. Mrs. Florence Blauvelt, former I chairman of the district, reported : on the success of the cookie sale, while Mrs. Howells of Chestnut ; Grove, speaking for the Training I committee, announced that the lar gest number yet, over 50 women, was enrolled in the training course, now being held every Monday night at the Pearl River Methodist church. Mrs. Campbell gave the report for the public relations committee and urged those present to see each troop had a scribe who would be responsible for troop news. She spoke of the necessity for making plans now for camp promotion events and rallies. A REPORT FROM ALBANY By ROBERT WALMSLEY, i Rockland County Assemblyman It has been the custom for at least a half century to hold two large receptions at the Executive Mansion in Albany each year. The first of these is held or New Year ’ s Day and is for the general public. The other large social event is the Legislative reception, which is given each year toward the end of February. This is strictly an invita tion affair. The old mansion, now occupied by our Governors for over 75 years, is not an ideal place for large functions. For instance, while the ladies ’ cloakroom is just inside the entrance, the men have to cross the large reception hall — where the receiving line is stand ing and where large numbers of the guests are lined up to be in troduced — in order to reach their own cloakroom. It results in great congestion and considerable incon venience. Gov., Mrs. Dewey Head Line Nine state officials with their wives were in the receiving line at the .reception the other evening. Thus, one greeted 18 people going down the long line. Gov. and Mrs. Dewey were at the head and in order there followed Lt. Gov. Moore; Comptroller McGovern; Attorney General Goldstein; Presi dent pro tern of the Senate Wicks; Speaker Heck of the Assembly; Majority Leader Mailler of the Assembly; Senator Mahoney, chair man of the finance committee, and Assemblyman Stephens, chairman of the ways and means committee. In each case the official ’ s wife stood at his right. The minority leaders of both houses had also, according to cus tom, been invited to be in the line but Senator Quinn, while present, wished to avoid the strain of the long period of standing and Assem blyman Steingut has been ill. I His friend worried about a sud den collapse at Albany. believe this is the first time I have not seen both of them in the line. There was an unusual amount of color about the reception this year. This was in part due to the num ber of officers of the armed forces who were present, either present ing the guests or moving about among them. There were probably 20 younger officers from the state ’ s Army, Navy and Air Force con tingents who escorted each of the guests to the line to be presented. The process is not as formidable as may seem. For the legislator at least, it is simply a case of meet ing under somewhat more formal social conditions men whom he is seeing nearly every day in Albany and of having the privilege of greeting their charming wives — the adjective can be used ad visedly. Cross-Section of Officialdom While this event is called the Legislative reception, the guests are not limited to members of the Senate and the Assembly. Heads of divisions and departments and bureaus In the state government with their deputies are Invited with their wives, and customarily at tend. Members of commissions are also there. It is a most inclusive cross-section of slate officialdom. I was amused to find that one of my friends, who was inquiring about the ago of the structure and the presumed strength of Its beams, was concerned as to whether it could stand the weight of the very large crowd. My own thought was that it had been constructed in the days when work was well and staunchly done and materials were of the best, and there seemed no reason for concern. The reception had officially opened at 9 p. m. and the guests danced or visited until just before 11 p. m., when the doors of the large dining room were opened for the serving of the buffet supper. I am constantly asked “ What do they serve? ’ ’ Well, it was a case of chicken a la king with a molded salad, pickles and olives and hot rolls, ice cream and a variety of cakes and coffee. So often the food at these large functions is tasteless; not so at the mansion. It was as tasty and well-prepared as one could wish for in his own home. And then I am asked “ What colors or styles did the ladies wear? ” I have to admit that is out of my line. I know there was plenty of color and all the ladies looked their best and I took particular care to observe that Mrs. Dewey was in while, satin I should say, and that I heard several of the ladies say “ Doesn ’ t she look pretty? ” That is all you would expect me to remember . Miss Loretta Farley On the Dean ’ s List Miss Loretta E. Farley of 1 Hudson avenue, a student at Syr acuse University, has been noti fied by the university that because of her high scholastic standing in the first semester courses, she has been placed on the dean ’ s list. Miss Farley, a graduate of HaV' erstraw High School, is a sopho more in the School of Speech. She is the niece of Mrs. James P. Reilly of Haverstraw and of the Messrs. John, James A., Philip and William Farley of New York City.

With 50 cents in your pocket you can have yourself a wonderful time and if you are an adult and give 50 cents to a child and bring him to the Carnival you will have an even more wonderful time. Mrs. George Jervis, chairman of the committee, says the route will be clearly marked, since Troop 112 and its leaders, Mrs. Herbert Evans and Mrs. Leonard Dumoulin, are taking that job on themselves. In addition this troop will sell candied apples and its sister troop, number 7, Girl Scouts — leaders Mrs. Jervis and Mrs. Frank Craven — will have the sweet shop and run the bingo. Mrs. T. L. McCulloch is neighbor hood chairman of both of these troops. There will be three fortune tellers. One will be the Man of Mystery, who delighted all those who lined up in front of his booth last year, and two veiled Oriental beauties who drew equally eager crowds. The cotton candy machine will be turning out yards of the luscious pink stuff, while coffee and hot dogs await those who have out grown their sweet tooth. There will be puppets and pantomines and a minstrel show and the \greatest show on earth ” ; so of course there will be popcorn to go with it. Also homemade layer cakes and cup cakes so Manuna won ’ t have to go home and do a Saturday baking after the fun. For those who prefer “ audience participation ” to being spectators all the time, there will be darts, games of chance and an amateur talent show. The Grand Parade will be at 2 p. m., but five-cent tickets for all events will be on sale from 1:30 on at the entrance. NYACK EXPRESS CO., Inc. Established 1893 WM. PERRY, Pres.
