Scout Troop 2738 of Sterling, VA sponsored their first Personal Safety
Workshop for more than 127 Girl Scouts of all ages. At the workshop

information on how to stay safe coming home from school, playing outside,
shopping at the mall or just walking down the street. The workshop
allowed Girl Scouts of all levels to earn badges in self-defense and

Black
History Moment 2010
John Lee Love - Improved Pencil Sharpener John Lee Love's invention
was a very simple and portable pencil sharpener. The same kind of pencil
sharpener that many artists use or that can be found in an office or
school room. In John Lee Love's invention the pencil is put into the
opening of the sharpener and rotated by hand. It was designed so that
the shavings would stay inside the sharpener. It is interesting to note
that while the patent drawing depicts the Love Sharpener as being quite
plain. John Lee Love wrote that it could also be designed in a very
ornate fashion and that his pencil sharpener could also be used as a
desk ornament or paperweight. John Lee Love's pencil sharpener was patented
on November 23, 1897 (U.S. Patent # 594,114)
