EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Girl Guides Association in England during the 1940s, as they proudly display The Standard of England at a gathering. The Standard, a treasured emblem of the organization, is held aloft by a young Girl Guide, her determined expression reflecting the Association's motto, "Be Prepared." The Standard is adorned with the main elements of the Guiding emblem: the trefoil, the cross of St. George, and the motto "Persevere." The trefoil symbolizes the Shamrock, clover, or three leaves, representing the threefold promise of the Guide Oath. The cross of St. George, the patron saint of England, symbolizes loyalty to the country. The motto "Persevere," meaning to continue in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition, embodies the spirit of resilience and determination that Guiding instills in its members. Heraldically, the Standard is designed with the horse and dragon, symbolizing the attack and defeat of adversity. The horse, a symbol of strength and courage, represents the Guides' ability to face challenges head-on. The dragon, a symbol of fear and chaos, represents the obstacles that the Guides will encounter in their lives. By holding the Standard aloft, the Guides declare their commitment to overcoming these challenges and upholding the values of Guiding. The photograph, with its timeless composition and evocative imagery, offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the enduring spirit of the Girl Guides Association and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity.
