PAYS TO BE DECENT.
Tonka Bay Real Estate Has
Doubled in Value.
SUNDAY ORGIES ARE STOPPED
Stand Thus Enhancing Value
of Property.

Ionka Bay property has appreciated as
result of the stand the village council
has taken against blind pigs and beer
picnics. G. F. Wheeler, president of the
council, says sale of liquor will not be
allowed except in an orderly way under
license at the hotel bar.
The use Of liquor on the grounds by per-
sons who bring it from the city will not
be allowed, no matter how many officers
are required to enforce he rule.
The main object in the organization OF
the village of Tonka Bay was the ellmlna
tion of the element which has been so dis
reputable that at times, especially Sunday
evenings, it was impossible for man and
his family to go to the station without be-
ing insulted. Organization was believed
to- be the only salvation of the cottagers
and the hotels, Mr.. Wheeler says. 1t is
understood that no opposition is made to
orderly picnics.
| Mrs. A. A. Twombley's lease of the Lake
| Park hotel insures a reputation as sne
| will bring with her from 100 to 125 per-
! sons who have at some time boarded at
| the CottageWood when it was under her
management. Il.
The fact that property sells at double
| the prices at which it was offered last
year, is evidence that Lake Park is in
favor. Mr.. Wheeler has just sold Tor
$4,000 tract which would not have
brought half that amount under the old
regime. 1t: contains thirteen lots divided
between H. J. Bauman, who is building
now, W. H. Walker and W. A. Merriam.
Inquiry is active, showing that cottagers
have confidence in the property.
| Tonka Bay limits; in which the liquor
law holds good, include Brentwood, Mani
tou, West Point, Wildhurst, Lake Park,
and the southwestern corner OF Big
