From Friday's Daily Framing and boxing of the Scout cabin at Camp Wheeler has been com pleted and yesterday workmen start ed laving: shincles on the roof. The Mngles vrere purchased by the Ro tarv club from the proceeds of a special birthday fund created by Past President William Baird when he was head of the club, and which had grown to some $90. The fund was created as a memorial to the Bairds' deceased son. and was dedicated to use in worthy boys work, of which the Rotary club deemed the new cabin project most worthy. In addi tion to the purchase cf the required fifteen squares of roofing material and roofing nails, the club has also paid the first year's rental on land leased for this recreational grounds, thereby practically exhausting the fund. The roof is of "hex" type fireproof asbestos shingles in a pleasing color, and of a quality calculated to last for many years. With but $94. CO alloted by the government for material, more than half of which has already been ex pended fcr lime, cement and sand with which to lay the foundation walls and chimneys, nails and ex pense of transporting material to the site, it will be necessary to raise rcme additional money for a floor for the large main building and adjoin ing kitchen, requiring upwards of 1.2C0 board feet, as all available sal vaged material suitable for thi3 pur pose has been used. In addition it is hoped to cover the outside with stuc co or log slabs to give it a log cabin appearance, either of which can be provided as cheaply as paint and to either plaster or wall board the in side partitions. Plenty of man hours to do all this work are provided in the government grant, but the crying need is for material. The public is invited to visit the cabin and note the progress made in the work, also the possibilities of making it one of the finest in the state if a little money can be dug up for material. To reach the grounds, drive south on Highway 75 to where the transmission line turns west. Go east from that corner one mile to the Rock Creek schoolhouse, thence south a quarter of a mile over the Rock Creek bridge, where a foot gate has been provided. The cabin occupies a sightly position on the crest of the second hill tack from the road, some forty feet above the rock ledge that forms the south bank of Rock Creek at that point.
