BOULEVARD AROUND LAKE.

Boosters to 4e Realized.

Long Cherished Dream OF Iowa Resort
Boosters to 6s Realized.
Special to Times-Republican.
Mason City, May 10.-From a pipe
dream to a reality is a long step but
it has been taken at Clear Lake, and
before many more months the dream
of years to great many Of her people
will be consummated in a continuous
boulevard around the lake. The board
of supervisors of the county has made
the connecting link possible. Last year
the north side Of the lake was put in
fine condition. Where needed the road
was graded and after this was
thoroughly done fine coat Of sand
was put over the entire surface. The
road to the east and south Of the lake
is in fine condition as far as lakewood
and Bayside Parks but from there on
west has been the puzzler. number
of residents interested in the all
around the-lake project got offers Of
deeds to tracts of lands for road pur-
poses, and as soon as they had this
cinched they offered the deeds to the
county and the supervisors believing
that they were Of sufficient value to
warrant the expenditure of money In
grading and fixing up the road ac-
cepted the deeds and before many days
pass work will be commenced on the
finish of the continuous boulevard.
When this is completed there will be
few more beautiful drives in Iowa.
Magnificent forests will appear on one
side and the beautiful crystal water Of
Clear Lake on the other.
