has so little charm for Minneapolis peo-
pie this year for the big residences at
Lake Minnetonka are well provided
with heating plants and everything to
make the occupants comfortable during
the cold weather. "We are planning
to 60 out next year but this year-welI,
it seems best to stay in town. is the
mild weather that simply seems to call
people to the country. A number of
lake enthusiasts will go out for the day
and open their houses but there will be
few jolly houseparties of young people
to make merry over country sports and
holiday pastimes for Highcroft, Cedar
hurst, Old Orchard, Katahdin, Red
Oaks, Briar Hill and all the other hand
some places will remain closed
'We dom dare go out,' confessed
one woman, - for altho the weather has
been So mild all month who knows
, when there will be change and a
blizzard in town is preferable to bliz.

few days and still be in condition tc
