MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.


The season just closing here has
been a real success in spite of the I'M
usually cold, wet summer months.
During the season one hundred and
seventy-eight families occupied Gotta
ges within the limits of the Park and
in addition there have been thousands
of guests at the hotels and boarding
houses and other guests of cottagers.
The people expressed their delight
with their surroundings while guests
within the gates and all are DESTROYS
of returning again next year.
A very compact program is already
booked for. the season of 1921-July
and August-while other gatherings
are under consideration for June and
September.
Extensive improvements are being
thought out for next year which will
be acted upon in the official board
meeting to be held this month.
Increased educational facilities for
ministers and missionaries will have
especial attention next year.
The board is placing reasonable
prices on the hundreds of splendid
building sites yet unsold so that per-
sons wishing to erect a home in the
Park may have the lot upon which to
do so. The cottage owners have made
many improvements during the sum-
mer and it is hoped that the good
work will go right on increasing each
succeeding year and there are reason
able causes for expressing this hope
and it's ultimate fulfillment.
An increased amount of money is
being provided for the betterment of
the streets and sidewalks within the
Park limits and these contemplated

Sign Language for Motorists.

Communication between moving mo-
tor cars is difficult. An ingenious mo-
torist has devised a simple sign Ian
guage whereby the fingers of one hand
enable passing drivers to commune
cate with each other. If code of this
sort could be brought into general
use, it would undoubtedly prove help
full. The code meanings are indicated
by the following finger positions:
Index finger up-You have flat
shoe.
Index and second fngers-Stop and
inspect you car.
Index, second and third-Am l on
the best road to the next town?
Whole hand, palm upwards. o.
