It W$s th plan that the canvas should bp car ried ofi quietly with no genera publicity in advance. This prove' very successful. On Monday of this week Mr.^ Ha handed ' the' Lowe Motor Compan a check for a new Ford truck ehaf Bis. This is now ready to have ; home-made body. put on it just ti euit the fancy find needs of th scouts. Then it will be painted anc suitably lettered to show to th? world that Brevard is progressive and generous enough to provide its Bcouts with a fline truck. The' truck will stay in Mr. Hay's garage , and will never be used ex cept. When he or one of "the other officials is present. It will be used for week-end hikes and fop the summer carops, and is sure to prove tti immeasurable use and' pleasure. . - The troop of . scouts has been in existence ever since March 1910, Mr. Hay has been its sooutmaster iffiL this . time except when he was| away with the army. Then Mr. Fred Miller1 took charge of. the' troop and bandied it in fine way until Mr. Hay's return. Verne Clement was first assistant scoutmaster. He, was succeeded by Rev. J.C. 8eagle.
