store. which is a model among the sum-
mer stores Of our State. Above the
store is convenient hall, which is used
for church services, and social gather
ings, and connected with the main room
on the first floor is a convenient and
popular ice creAm emporium Long
experience has enabled Mr.. McDoupan
to anticipate to wonderful extent the
wants of his patrons, and his motto has
always been-the best of everything.
There has never been year since Mr.
McDougall has been catering to the
needs of Ocean Point people, that he
has not been opened up by the fifth of
June. He has never refused credit to
any summer visitor during the TWENTY
| five years that he has served them. and
| it speaks volumes for the character of
| the people who have made their vaca-
| ton homes at the Point, that his total
losses during all these years will not
aggregate $40. Mr.. McDougall Is in
personal charge of the store at the
Point, and is assisted by the genial and
obliging George w. Linekin, who, like
his employer, is deservedly popular
| with the people at the Point.
Mr.. McDougalps store at East BOOTH
bay is in charge of his son, L. M Me-
| Dougall, the Grand chancellor of the
Grand Lodge Of Knights of Pythias of
| Maine, and the youngest man in the
United States who has ever presided
| over a Grand Lodge of this order.
1t would be difficult to give either a.
complete or accurate list of the people
| who have been at Ocean Point this
summer, and if the Journal man has
| overlooked any they may know that it
was not intentional on his part.
