TANAPOLIS

(ocal Woman Receives National Award.

For Work Among Camp Fire Girls

By AGNES H. OSTROM “Once you get into Camp Fire work, it gets into you.”

That's the way Mrs. John Ryan, 531 Lincoln St. feels

about her community work 3

with neighborhood girls. And that's the way she wrote about it in the report that has secured for her a national leadership medallion awarded for outstanding guidance of Camp Fire groups during 1948, Mrs. Ryan is one of 10 women in the U, 8. .to receive the award. And she is a first time winner for Indianapolis ‘since the Red Feather agency was established here more than 26 years ago, The slim dark-haired mother of three children, who logks about the same age as her recently married daughter, Virginia (Mrs, Charles Thompson), has been in Camp Fire work only about five years. Seeing a group of Blue Birds one day on the street, she “really just fell in love with them and have been ever since.” A short time later she was assisting with the Canary Blue Bird group in School 31. She is now in the fourth year of her work as leader of the O-Ki-Hi Camp Fire group in the school. She likes best the group work ‘with her 10 to 12-year-olds. “I try to make each girl feel wanted ‘and included and give her-a definite quty in the group activity.”

Help With Drives

The girls make favors for veterans, help each year with the Goodwill drives, go on field trips to factories and plants ard have their own special fun on picnics and outings, “Winning awards is becoming a Ryan habit. Last year®at the

25th anniversary’ parade of - Camp Fire Girls held in the

city, her group won first prize for its float. A group member, Laura Mae Bracken, was the Camp Fire candy queen in the 1948 annual candy sale. And the leader proudly wears a medallion from the local office which she won for leadership in 1948, In a letter which Mrs. Ryan received from Miss Martha

Wayne. and John Ryan Jr. ad Mrs. Charles Thompson watch their mother, Mrs, John Ryan (second from the right) mix a batch

of fudge.

This was directed to a leader who “has been faithful and steady and has grown with her group in doing for other children,” according to those who work with her, In addition to serving as secretary of the All City Camp Fire. Leaders Association for three years, Mrs. Ryan has helped with other civic projects. She has worked in the Community. Fund drive for four years, is secretary of the Delta Alpha class in the Morris St, Methodist Church and is now hospitality chairman for the Parent Teachers Association at School 31 where Wayne, 9, and John Jr. 13, are enrolled. Family Firsk : Buf’ she has her own theory about community service, too. She plans it during .the daytime when her family is gone, “My family comes first,” she admonishes. She helps John get off for his daily paper route, doesn't bat an eye over the future prospects of Wayne's hampshire litter and remembers to call out to her departing daughter, “Don’t forget to call your den-

For a while she sold them commercially ‘except, “It just takes 80 much time away from my family.” The presentation of the medallions will be made during’ the national ' organization's conference Oct. 23-29 in Portland, Ore. Although Mrs. Ryan doesn't expect to be able to attend personally, she's counting on Miss Oranda Bangsberg, local director, and Miss Irene Boughton, board president, to bring it to her.
