SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 
59 
The Chairman calls for corrections as before. 
Then the Chairman calls for a discussion of old busi- 
ness, that is, anything discussed at previous meetings, 
that has been left undone or left to be decided at a later 
date. Any member of the meeting may bring up this old 
business, or the Chairman may start the discussion. “The 
business .before the meeting is . What is your 
pleasure in regard to this/’ or “Will anyone make a 
motion?” 
The member who wishes to make the motion says : 
“Madam Chairman, I move that — ” 
Another member who agrees to this says: “I second 
the motion.” 
If the motion is not seconded at once, the Chairman 
says : “Will anyone second the motion?” 
After the motion has been moved and seconded the 
Chairman immediately states the question as, “It has 
been moved and seconded that the troop have a Rally on 
May 2. Are you ready for the question?” or “The 
question is now open for discussion.” If no one rises, 
the Chairman proceeds to put the question. “All those 
in favor say aye, opposed no.” 
Then the Chairman says, “The motion is carried,” or 
“The motion is not carried,” as the case may be. 
After the old business has been attended to, the Chair- 
man calls for new business, saying, “Is there any new 
business to be discussed?” 
The Chairman then dismisses the meeting by calling 
for a motion for adjournment. 
Adjournment : “Will some one move that the meeting 
be adjourned?” 
If this is moved and seconded it is not necessary to put 
it to a vote. 
The Chairman says: “The meeting is adjourned.
