that an effort has been made to

Goodwill's place is one of the
handsomest summer resorts it has
been our pleasure to see. Located
on high rocky bank overlooking
charming bay in Lake Vermilion
and surrounded by white birch and
poplar trees it presents comfort
able and commodious appearance.
Large docks and boat houses are
numerous and boats are at hand in
profusion, from the primitive birch
bark canoe to the latest in launches.
The main building is new and oon-
structed with an eye to beauty as
we'll as to the comfort of guests.
Surrounding the main building are
a number of log and frame cot
tages for sleeping quarters. A
gasoline lighting system furnishes
light for both the inside of the
buildings and the grounds. A tank
water supply system has also been
installed.
The place is in charge of Mr.. and
Mrs. Goodwill who make it a point
to see that guests are treated right
and furnished with the best the
market affords. The guests of
Sunday were made to feel at home
and their visst to the charming
summer home will never be for
gotten. After an inspection of the
place the party returned to Joyce's
Landing.
From there side trip was made
to Cook and one of the most pros
porous farming districts and COM
munities in the northern part of
the state was visited. Cook, is
situated on the line of the Duluth
and Winnipeg railroad, some
twenty-five miles from Virginia
and ten miles from Lake Vermilion.
The town has many fine buildings
for both business and residence
purposes. The range communities
few miles to the south furnish an
outlet for the products of the farms
and creamery of the prosperous
little city. shipments being made
over the railroad to Virginia
Several manufacturing plants are
also located at Cook, besides our
old friends. Gus. Bubolz and VIM.
Reik.
A few miles this side of Cook
are located the large farms of John
Owens and Nels Benson. These
gentlemen have modern improve
ments with fine herds of blood ed
stock. The soil in the vicinity is
black loan and rocks are a scarcity.
The district is under the commits
sionership of Grant McMahan and
the roads in that country prove it.
Mr.. McMahan is recognized as the
good-road building commissioner
of the county and anyone can take
a lead pencil and draw a line on
the roads at the beginning and
ending of his district.
Not an accident happened to
mar the pleasure of the trip and
the cars all returned whole. The
day was ideal and everyone had
the time of their life and a hunger
that was almost unappeasable.
Stops were frequently made to
satisfy the inner man, tea and
coffee being made and lunches in
dulged in. All were satisfied with
the visit to one of the handsomest
sections in the state.
