MT. LAKE PARK

Things are certainly picking up in
this community. TheMount Airy Can
ming Company will have new addition
to its plant and four more husking
machines are being installed to take
care of the additional corn crop ex-
pected to be harvested this season.
Nearly all available houses in the
Park are occupied. The only. trouble
seems to be the lack Of livable and
fairly warm dwellings for winter oc-
cupancy. Of course all understand that
Mountain Lake Park is primarily a
summer resort and dwellings erect
ed years ago were for summer and not
for winter use, hence the most desir-
able places are now occupied the year
round. 1t looks now that Mountain
Lake Park will have good season this
year.
