Part 21

Climb along! Climb along! with a cheer and a smile and a song! Though it seems an awful lot to do, Other Scouts made good--and so can you! Climb along! Climb along! and you'll surely put it through. Then lead your troop to Victory--for the Eaglets are calling you!

TENDERFOOT SONG

(Tune: "When You Come Back")

When I'm a Scout--and I am a Scout, I'll make the other girls jump and look out! And as I get on, I surely will pass Like a bright lass to the Scout's Second Class. And when I've a First Class up on my sleeve, Oh, it's the proud girl I shall be! (Hurrah!) When I'm a Scout--and I am a Scout, There's a big job waiting for me!

ORGANIZING SONG

(Tune: "A Hot Time in the Old Town")

Come along, girls, get ready, let us form our patrol, Let us choose a dandy Captain who will make the Scouts enroll, All around us they are joining, and we can't be left behind, Get your friends all together--see how many you can find!

CHORUS:

See, oh, see, the Scouts are coming in! Once they join, they stick through thick and thin, And when they play the game, they're pretty sure to win-- There'll be a Scout troop in our town this year!

WINTER SONG

(Tune: "Keep the Home Fires Burning")

Keep the Scout work going, While the year is growing, Winter's cold and dready, but 'twill soon pass by! We can all remember Through the long December Camps and hikes and swims and sports in the warm July!

HIKING SONG

(Tune: "Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag")

Pack up your dinner in your brown knapsack, And hike, hike, hike! Take all you need upon your own strong back, Wander where you like. Leave the roads to motor cars, The side walks to the bike--but Pack up your dinner in your brown knapsack, And hike, hike, hike!

SCOUT MARCHING SONG

(Tune: "Marching Through Georgia")

Everywhere you go to-day, you'll find a little Scout, Work or play, they lead the way, there can't be any doubt, When their Country calls on them, they answer with a shout, Rah, rah, rah, for the Girl Scouts!

CHORUS:

Hurrah, Hurrah, the Scouts are on their way! Hurrah, Hurrah, we're surely here to stay! Comrades all around the world, we're growing every day, Rah, rah, rah, for the Girl Scouts!

II.

Nothing is too big or small for any Scout to do, Call them if you need their help, and they will see you through, Here's their motto--Be Prepared!--they mean it, yes, they do! Rah, rah, rah, for the Girl Scouts!

GIRL SCOUT LULLABYE

When evening comes and darkness softly falls, Girl Scouts their rest around the camp fire seek And each to herself her laws recalls. Her truth, her honor, purity, obedience and loyalty While softly, the moonbeams and stars twinkle brightly, God's witnesses on high, While the bugle sounds its soft good-night.

(Tune: "Carry'n On," from "The Better 'Ole")

The Girl Scouts are coming, their drums and their fifes Sound echoes of gladness from joyous young lives. See each is prepared to do her good deed, To God and her country and all those in need. Her knots and her signalling, first aid and drill, Show regular practice--say, ain't that some skill?

CHORUS:
