VI more buildings and Improvements for the
accommodation Of the increasing multitude
OF people that are here at the present and

We Iced quite a number more Of cottages to
supply the demand We need quite num-
Der more Of cottages Of larger dimensions and
finished in more modern and artistic style
and well furnished to satisfy the demand OF
numbers Of people who come from some OF
the western states and from points in differ
ent sections for several hundred miles dis
tant. They are willing and expect to pay for
their accommodations. That is what we want
and need at the present time. Miss f. Butcher
