MT. LAKE PARK

September, the ninth month of the
year. The name, in case you do not
know it, was derived from the old
Latin word meaning seventh, as this
was the seventh month of the old Ro-
man year. Later the calender was
changed and January and February
added. The name September remained
unchanged even though it became the
ninth month. Anyhow, the last few
days have been gentle reminders that
Old Man Winter isn't far away.
The Park is rapidly emptying of
the summer people,. They are going
back to their steam-heated apartments
and we who are left must soon start
carrying coal. However, SO long as
we have the coal we shall not mind
'lugging" it indoors. =: =, .....-
Two members of our small commu-
nifty have approached us regarding
certain matters to write about. We did
investigate one and decided to hold
off until next week before we men,
toned it hoping that we should not
be forced to do SO: The second ques-
ton which we were asked was "what
was done or will be done with the
Tableland money collected?" To this
we can only say we do mot know, but
we do feel that it will be well spent and
that you will know what was done
and how it was spent; so don't jump
at conclusions. The Tableland folks
are all pretty honest and we believe
they can be trusted. So let's wait and
see what they decide to do. Naturally
IT one gives money to an organization
they are interested in just what the
money is spent for, and we do feel
that the Tableland people will account
for all they have collected.
More fire plugs will be installed in
the Park shortly. The town is to be
commended for this. They realize the
Importance of having as many fire
plugs as possible. With winter coming
on and coal fires burning the hazard
of fire is increased.
