TROOP 2 HAS
UNIQUE HOME
Members of Brownwood Troop No.1
2. Boy Scouts of America, are going
to ride in style on a railroad coach
every time the troop holds a meet-
ing. Tl*y are going to tour the
world In the own private coach, like 1
a President or a railroad executive.
But the "touring" will be done
right in their own ba/x yard . Noth-
ing more than a little Imagination
will be needed for the trips along
clicking rails.
A railroad coach. 53 by 9 feet, was
moved Wednesday onto a lot at the
old No. 3 fire station, near the Cog-
gin school, which will in the future
be the meeting place for the troop.
The boys were busy Thursday low-
ering the coach to 1U foundation.
Members of the troop will be busy
the rest of this week and all of next,
completing their unique quarters
and putting the grounds In shape.
■First regular meeltng In the coach
will be held on Aug- 25.
Members of the troop said their
thanks for helping to secure the
quarters and for assistance In oth-
er ways In the project were due to
officials of the Santa Fe railroad,
members of the Brownwood Volun-
teer Fire department, the troop
sponsors, to Chairman R. A. Snider
and other members of the troop
committee, to the boys’ parents and
other friends who helped.
