lake and the Missouri river. A large
number Of children were also with
the party.
There Is a movement on foot start
ed by number of the prominent citi-
zens of Washburn and Wilton to buy
land around Painted Woods lake and
lay out lots so that those who de.
sire to 10 so can purchase some and
erect cottages near the lake. This
would make an ideal summer resort,
as there is good fishing and plenty
of beautiful wooded tracts. And be-
sides this, there is an excellent auto
mobile road to the lake from both
the county seat and Wilton. Such a
place would undoubtedly draw many
families during the hot summer sea-
son from places far more distant than
the two places above named. A good
thing, push it along.
