MT. LAKE PARK

Mr.. LipScomb took US for a little
ride, when we inquired of him Tuesday
morning if it was cold up on the hill.
He replied that although his thermom-
eter registered one below zero, the
flowers were still blooming. We didn't
get it until he later told us they were
Mrs. Lipscomb's flowers and were in
the house. He has spells like that oc-
casionally.
With Christmas but a few days off,
we have heard no report on the COM
munity tree. We understand many of
the children are expecting it this year
and it will be too bad if they are dis
appointed. Last years tree was a
huge success and brought cheer and
happiness to many. Brightness and
cheer are just as necessary, perhaps
more so, this year, and we know of
nothing that brings more happiness to
the children than a Christmas tree.
Perhaps the Mayor and Council
have one in mind, but we were asked
to mention the subject, and it gives
us pleasure to do so and we know it
affords the editor equally great pleas
ure to print this reference to a matter
so near the childrens' hearts.
Last Christmas season the Park, in
many places, looked like fairyland
with the outdoors decorated and IL
Illuminated. The Christmas spirit pub
licly expressed helps US forget our
troubles. So pack your troubles in
your old kit bag and-let's go.
