On this day in 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt presented his first presidential address to the nation. It was the first of the "Fireside
Chats." He used the informal radio addresses to explain his policies
to the American public.
The Girl Scout organization was founded on this day in 1912 by
Juliette Gordon Low (above) (1860-1927). The original name was
Girl Guides.
A meeting in 1912 with Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of
Boy Scouts, inspired Juliette to establish Girl Scouts that same
year. The first gathering was a small troop of 18 culturally and
ethnically diverse girls. The organization serves millions of girl
members today.
