A TROOP PROJECT
"DELOW is reproduced a photo-
graph of the frame which
Troop 875 of Chicago, 111., has con-
structed to exhibit permanently in
its Troop Meeting room the Ten
Year Program Awards which it
has received since 1933. As you
will note, there are three empty
frames for those awards which
they hope to win by 1942. This is
a fine Troop project. The frame
itself may be as simple or decora-
tive as the Troop wishes. It could
occupy a prominent place in the
Meeting Room and thus be an in-
centive to the Scouts to fill the
empty frames.

A genuine record. This Troop has devised this hammered copper frame as a decorative, novel
way of framing their Ten Year Program Awards. They are seven up with only three more to go.
