Al Shc last meeting of Troop 3
of the Boy Scouts of this city, ii
was unanimously decided that the

which to hold their meetings, and
for this reason the public is asked
to assiss the lads III finding some
room, unoceupied house, shed or
barn which cosid be fixed up by
he lads for a gathering place. As
the scouts do ret feel that they
ere in a financial position TO pay
rent for any sort of club room,
they are hoping that some gener-
Gus hearted citizen who believes in
boys and their good times will vo-
lunteer a place.
