In the summer of [[1914]], her health having recovered, Drahonowska-Małkowska organised the first national camp. Girls (by now renamed [[Girl Guides|Guides]]) from the Russian and German controlled areas of Poland came to the camp under assumed names and false [[passport]]s. One girl turned out to be a [[Espionage|spy]] and was caught looking through Drahonowska-Małkowska's tent for a list of these Guides names.

One morning a detachment of the Polish Secret Military Police (some of whom were brothers to the Guides) came to announce that war had been declared. Andrzej Małkowski wrote to say the camp should close at once and that, as the borders had closed, he had found accommodation in Zakopane for those girls who could not get home.
