THE Kid is a distinct departure

Through Efforts of Managing
Secretary Fred 6, Warde,
OF Board Of Trade.
BARRACKS BUILDING is
ON NEWCASTLE STREET
City Commissioners at Meeting
Decided to Make Purchase
and War Department Was
Promptly Notified-May Also
be Used as Armory for the
Brunswick RifIemen.

On account Of the untiring efforts
of Managing Secretary Fred G. Warde.
of the Brunswick Beard Of Trade. to-
gether with the good business iadg,
ment of the board of city commission
ers, the Boy Scouts of Brunswick VIII,
in the near future, be housed in q
home Of their own.
Several months ago the Board of
Trade realized that something had TO
, be done to take care OF the Bov Scouts
and began negotiating with thu ~
er government officials for .he pur-
chase OF the barracks buildms. i7eat-
ed on Kings square. Newcastle street
between Prince and Albemarle streets
A few days ago the war department.
wired to Secretary Warde Offering the
city these buildings at very nominal
sum and at the meeting of the city
commissioners. by request, Mr.. Warde
laid the plans before that body and
it was promptly agreed to accept the
offer made by the war department,
thus providing for the Boy Scouts
home
II has been suggested that the city
devote the larger building of the four
to The use Of the Brunswick Rifeme1l
and Boy Scouts as this building is two
stories and splendidly adapted to the
use to which these two organizations
would put ii. The public can rest as
sured that members of the city COM
mission and Manager Granting will
use their best Judgment in arranging
these buildings so as TO serve the best
| interest of all parties concerned and
| it is certain that the Scouts will ap-
preciate the work that is being don
for them and especially the interest
Secretary Warde has shown in their
organization. 1t may he stated tn;
in providing for the boys the city go~-
ernment has made one the of best in
vestments possible for "he who in
vests in the boys of today, makes the
men Of the future"
1t is reasonable to suppose thilt
these buildings, admirably located as
they are. will be the start of d real
community center, equipped with the
necessary apparatus so that the boys
and girls of the city will be enabled
to enjoy the privileges of a splendid
athletic field with the advantages uf
all kinds of outdoor sports.
In conclusion it may be stated that
the price paid for the property is less
than a fourth of the figure it would
bring at a salvage sale and the fac
that it has been secured is not only
of uncalculable benefit to the boys and
girls but is good business judgment.

AT this time it appears that the
Georgia National Guard will not be
the only encampment at st. Simon
this summer as indications are that
the Uniform Rank of the Woodmen OF
the World will accept an invitation
which has been extended by DR.. J. w

The invitation was extended some
days ago and there is every indication
that it will be accepted. The date OF
the Woodmen encampment has been
fixed and it falls after that of the Ma
tional Guard of Georgia which means
that the Woodman can step right into
the camps at st. Simon made vacant
by the departure OF the troops.
At least one thousand visitors will
come in the event the Woodmen dc
decide to accept the invitation and as
no other cities are ''going after it,
there is every reason to believe that
the effort to have them come will be
successful.
