COMPANY FORMED TO.
CONTROL LAKE RESORT

The proposed formation of COM
pany to take over the Chippewa Lake
resort notice of which first appeared
in the Sentinel several months ago,
seems now an assured fact, as an
organization to be known as the Chip
pewa Park Co. has been Incorporated
with capitalization of $l25,000.
AS was also stated in the Sentinel
during the past summer, it would be
the purpose of the proposed company
to make extensive improvements on
the lake grounds, particularly the en-
largement of the dance pavilion and
dining hall. Concerning the latter
two changes there is yet indecision as
to whether to install the dining room
in the basement of the dance hall, or
which in many respects would be bet
ter, to erect neY one down on the
lake front. In either event the pres.
ent hotel, which has been inadequate
for several seasons, would be convert
ed into bedrooms exclusively.
Both railroads touching the lake re-
sort have signified a willingness to CO.
operate with the new company in ev.
cry possible way in taking care Of the
visitors to and from the grounds
Mac Beach, erstwhile lessee of the
grounds, will be identified with the
new company.

"As result of my inspection of the

the inspector is assured that for ad-
ministrative, social. and recreational
purposes these junior high school
grades are separate entity.
H The curriculum is very satisfac-
tory. Undoubtedly the teachers will
need some. careful supervision So that
they may properly develop the teach
ing along distinctly junior high school
lines. Supervised or directed study
which isrecognized as being essential
will require careful attention on their
part. .I1
