week that the fairy Examinations will light
up the woodlands and send their gimmer-
Ing reflection over the cool waters of the
lake; the last week that those who enjoy
dancing can trip the light fantastic on the
excellent floor of the big pavilion to the
music of Prof. Donch's Band. This will be
most unwelcome news to the many hun
dreds who have found in this beautiful sub
ufpan resort an ideal place where they
could go for an evening of rest and amuse-
ment. But the management decided that II
would be better to close the place while 1t
was at the height of it's popularity than to
wait until the weather became too unset
tied to make visit there pleasant. Only
four more evenings remain in which to take
a farewell view of the fairy lights and in

at the lake. The Examinations have lost
none OF their attractiveneSs and those who
have not seen the thousands of lights, the
unique set pieces and the glowing legends
along the shore should not miss this final
opportunity. Besides. there are the bowl
ing and shooting galleries and the merry
go-round and many other amusements that
will help both young and old to thoroughly
enjoy their evening there. AS large crowds
may be confidently counted upon to spend a
last evening at the lake this final week, the
electric cars will run both to and from
Chevy Chase every three minutes.
