Scout and Guide Chiefs of Norway (Left to Right: Fröken Kari Aas, The Chief Scout, The Chief Guide, Rev. H. Moller Gasmann, Fröken Barman)

"We were greeted on arrival by the Chief Scout, the Rev. H. Moller Gasmann, who was the Founder of the Movement in Norway in 1911. There are, as in Sweden, two Guide Associations, the "Y.W.C.A. Guides of Norway," who wear khaki, and the "Norwegian Girl Guides League," who wear dark blue. They have a joint committee for international purposes, and are on very friendly terms. The heads of both organizations came off to see us, Miss Josefine Barman, of the Y.W.C.A. Guides, and Miss Kari Aas, of the "Blue Guides." The Chief Scout of Denmark, Admiral Karstensen, who was staying at the Royal Palace, also came off to meet us."
