The silver jubilee anniversary of the
Mountain Lake Park Association, the
twenty-gifth anniversary of the asso-
citation, found the Park looking its very
best in its summer garb A large num-
Der of cottages, with but few excep-
tirns here and there, are all occupied
with their summer residents. More
than a dozen States are represent
among the cottagers. These cottages
are tastefully furnished and are all
happily located for the summer season.
A number of events such as the student
camp meeting, the Woman Foreign
Missionary Society, anniversary confer
ence of the home mission and church
extension board in connection with the
anniversary Of the Woman's Home Mis-
sionary Society, all proved helpful and
every one of them was a success.
Prominent missionaries, such as DR..
Harris E. Kirk, Dr. S c. Sweet, DR..
Charles Roads, Bishop L. B. Wilson,
Dr. J. H. Fitzwater, DR.. c. w Barnes,
Dr. Franklin McElfresh, DR.. T. e.
Cramblet and many others of eqal prom
inence and influence in the church have
taken part in these services.
Immediately before the reception be-
ginning at $50 under the auspices of
the Woman's Civic Club, Mrs. J. Sum
ner Stone, of New York City, gave
unique entertainment entitled Around
the World in Sixty Minutes" Mrs. Stone
has just returned from this trip and
told where she was, what she saw and
showed the people of the countries Wis
tied in their national costumes. In the

experience in shipwreck of the Man

Hawaii, Japan, Korea, China, Philip
pines, Java, Burma, India and Egypt
Madame Kursteiner, better known
to the public as Myrta French, of grand
opera and oratorio fame, rendered two
very fine selections to the delight of the
audience. The accompanist was Mr..

very fine selection. A japanese story
and Chinese yamen, Oriental draperies
and plants made fine stage setting.
The address last evening by Col.

only handful of people, there not b.
ing over three hundred in the amphi-

the subject of Congressman Pearre's
address. He advocated woman suffrage
and showed the need of laws to curtail
bribery and the use of liquor at the
primary elect on polls. His address,
which was rad, occupied about an hour
and a half.
