The many friends that Miss Birdie
Burr, of Omaha, has made in this city
during her occasional visits here, we're
much pleased over a complimentary
notice that appeared in the Omaha
Excelsior concerning her successfully
swimming across lake Okoboji, a dis
tance of two miles, q feat that no
woman had ever succeeded in doing
before.

thought it did not pay to advertise Hot
Springs in any way, and did not want
to give cent toward it, can now plainly

surprising everybody that SO many
people are coming here this year, when
times generally are SO dull, and money
so hard to get. 1t will soon be time
again to begin getting advertising
matter ready for another year and we
hope there will not be a resident who
will attempt to decry advertising Hot
Springs in any and every manner.
