At the February, 1901, meeting OF
the Lake Superior Press association
at Menominee it was voted that the
midsummer meet should include a
trip to the Pan-American, at Buf-
falo, and accordingly President
Chase,S. Osborn and Secretary Ethan
W.Kibby were instructed to arrange
for the outing, and how we'll Mr..
Kibby, upon whom devolved the ar
rangement Of details, did his work,
is known to all those who partici-
pated in the week off, and in that
direction the secretary of the as
socation has the thanks of all.
The following reported at st. Ig-
mace, June 8th, only to find that the
steamer was several hours late:
President and Mrs. Chase S. Osborn
and son, Chase Jr., and Secretary
E. W. Kibbv, of Sault Ste. Marie;
Mr.. and Mrs. James Russell, ,..of Mar
quette, Mr.. and Mrs. ]; H. Wilson

The wait for the boat was made
most agreeable by the acceptance of
President Osborn's invitation TO
drive to Castle Rock. The ride was
delightful and the view of this noted
rock was gratifying to all, so much
SO thac most of the party climbed
the steep hill side to get closer
glimpse-and then climbed down
again, feeling well repaid for the
effort. Returning to the hotel
Cadillac = the headquarters - and
which by the way is one of the
finest hostelries in northern Michi-
gan, it was announced that the
steamer had arrived, and it took
but a short time for the party to go
aboard OF the City of Alpena, where
all were assigned staterooms and
we'll cared for by the officers in
charge. The City of Alpena is one
of the several steamers of the ever
popular Detroit Il Cleveland Navi-
CATION company.
The steamers Of this line are mar
vel of comfort and elegance com
bined, and there is no better or
cheaper route afforded to the lower
lake ports between Mackinac Island
and Cleveland. Close connections
are made with the steamship and
railway lines to and from the expo
siton. The boats are the finest on
the lakes, and are speedy, almost
making railway time. Meals are
served o la carte, and the cuisine is
not excelled by the best hotels. The
lake trip is delightful one in every
feature. The cool breezes that play
over the inland seas tone down the
summer heat to degree that makes
life aboard the steamers of the d. g.
G. line o pleasure never to be for
gotten.
The trip was most enjoyable and
decidedly bracing, and just the tonic
required by the party, while the
scenery and many beautiful and
unique cottages along the st. Clair
were greatly admired. The Girls
void House was headquarters in
Michigan's first city, and the
management did everything possible
to make the stay pleasing, and sue
ceeded admirably. AZ 8 o'clock
