Comes to Summer CamD

Conductor Weber and wife, 1t
Sioux City were arrivals at Simpson
Park last Wednesday morning. hav-.
inc come north to spend few weeks
in their cottage at the lake. It does
Mt seem such a long time ago when
every season about this time or be-
fore Mr. and Mrs. Webber would ar
rive at the lake with four red.aeatlest
boys lust about getting into the teen
&ge, and while Mr.. Webber would re-
turn 70 Sioux City the family would
remain at the lake during the whole
summer, and those red-headed hovs
would have the time of their lives
until the school opening or the early
frosts forced them south. When we
inquired if the boys were coming up
this summer we were informed that
they were all married and had fam
lies OF their own except the Youngest
and he was too busy rrepaaing for
coming responsibilities along the same
line to think of. it. The fact is some
OF the years must have slipped by
without our recognizing them.
