lake. Campbell q Underwood were the
enterprising gentlemen who did il, and
in conjunction with the D., l.. x y.
railway, viii offer many excellent at
fractions. The League Club viii play
Sunday games here. This ball park Is
located nearly south Of Alger Park, a
most beautiful and delightful spot and
bordering on the south shore of Reeds
Lake. Campbell q Underwood viii
soon bring it before the public, and
Will erect substantial and attractive
buildings, lay out handsome grounds
and do everything possible to make it
the popular resort of Grand Rapids
And another thing l forgot To men
tiOn," said Jack. ''was the fact that the
Grand Rapids lee and Coal Company
cut their supply from Reeds and
Fisk's Lake. Thoy have a large num-
ber of ice houses on the shores of these
bodies of water, and each winter store
away thousands Of tons of the christIl
substance" The Grand Rapids Co
are ever alert 10 the interests of their
patrons and do everything possible for
their convenience.
