Mr. Smith said Tuesday that no one has come up with a tree yet, and unless one turns up soon, we will have "no tree" for the Cub Scouts to decorate. It is not too late yet, though, and anyone knowing of a tree can still call Mr. Smith. New lights and decorations were in the planning also this year, but the supplier's place of business burned down, and he was unable to fill the order. The old decorations are being fixed up however, and were planned for installation Wednesday Wed-nesday evening.
