BOY SCCUTS BUILDING'
CABIN ON IHf CREEK
At the last regular meeting of the Hoy
Scouts it was decided that they would
build a cabin down on the Mulberry
creek. 1 uesday Mr. Johnson went
down with them and a site about two
hundred yards from the dam at Mr.
Mobley’s mill was selected. ’I he place
is beautifully situated on a knoll of
pine thickets, and is an ideal spot for
camping. Mr. Mobley was so kind as
to give the beouts all the trees they
needed; and V\ ednesday, armed with
axes and saws, they went down and
began work. In only half a day’s w ork
the cabin was put up* four logs high
The rain has prevented further work
but they expect to go down as soon s
possible and finish it.
Now who will come forth with the
balance of the needful? Spaulding

up there cltaied $4bb.bU an acre
last year just off of peppe rs—a plant
ns easily grown as cotton.
