Will GLEN Be A
SUMMER RESORT?
A Wild Report to lat Effect Whiz-

A wild report is in circulation that
the Glen will be turned into a sum-
mer resort either this summer or
next The rumor goes on to say that
hotel, with accommodations for
good many, will be built, and that
number f up to date steps will be
taken to complete the transformation.
However, it is only a rumor and IS
likely without turth. Last year a re-
port was spread that the Glen would
be changed into a fashionable resort
this year, but the change failed to
materialize and the next one will also.
However The rumor, if nothing more,
suggests the possibility of a good
thing to an enterprising promoter and
it may be ,hat something will bob up
in the share Of this proposed change.
The Glen offers many possibilities in
this way.
