J. Lynch, the ar chitect, contractor and originator of this most unusual, attractive cabin which will not only bring joy to the hearts of many boys now and in time to come, but will also be an added asset to all who enjoy Harmon Field activities. The Asheville Citizen carried a picture of the cabin in today’s issue. Octagonal floor and walls with a cone shaped roof slightly suggesting an Indian tepee, the hut is an attractive feature, but more than that it is home-like with portable bunks and seats, a. large rock fire-place radiating cheerful ness upon a spacious circular shaped room lighted in the center with electric lights hanging from an old wagon wheel under which games and Scoutcraft will be en joyed. The cabin will serve as a treasure house of Scout property and a place for many overnight visits. An adjoining annex with hot water heater, shower bath and toilet give the sanitary require ments. The cabin is the work of many hands and interests and for that reason will be treasured in years to come. There is built in the cabin part of the community. Some gave money, some material, some labor. Many of the donors are unknown, but their spirit is in the cabin and adds to its value in inparting to young boys to carry on and do likewise when their time comes.
