In 1910 Dr. Luther and Charlotte Gulick founded the Camp Fire Girls. These words are taken from the Book of Symbols for Camp Fire Girls. Each girl who joined the organization worked to create her own individual symbol based on things that spoke to her. The handbook was an encouragement "to put into words or drawings the things we cherish, for when it is done it helps us to hold to those things which are best in us."
