For 10, these many years, strip o.:
road half mile south and half mile
west of the Springs has been source
of worry and torture to the campers.
Last week purse was raised among
the people frequenting the lake and
the job of repairing the road was
turned over to Gene Richards. Mr..
Richards went at the job with his
usual vigor and intelligence and in a
very few days had built as nice a
piece of permanent road as one could
wish for. Nowadays, instead of the
trip to Ward Springs being horrible
nightmare, it is a joy ride from start
to finish. The long hill and its treach-
erous ruts and stones have given way
to smooth roadbed. The cottagers
have decided to elect Mr.. Richards the
official road overseer for life.
