Boy Scout
Camp Fund

From where We are sitting, 1t
looks for minute as though the
Boy Scout Camp Fund might not
get across,
It looks little as though the
people were going to let the boys
miss their camp this year
We cannot believe that such is the
case but II looks that way now.
The boys would have bad plenty
OF money to pay for the whole
camp ii they had been allowed to
have had the benefit carnival here
more money than we are now ask
Ing for them was guaranteed to
them We only need about $3.50
But they were told that they
could not have the carnival because
it took too much money out OF the
the community in order that the
scouts might get little. This was
right But those who were saved the
loss of that great amount of money
could well afford to help this fund.
We saw that the boys needed the
help
SO the fund has started.
Help it along by leaving or phon.
