Mt. LAKE PARK


The hillside's dew-pearPd;.
The lark's on the wing; E.
The snails on the thorne;
Gods in His heaven
ALPS right with the world.
Robert Browning
Last week the above lines certainly
would have been 'misfit" 1t was any
thing but springlike; in fact it was
near winter weather. Even now the
weather does not look too sure fol-
springtime.
Rumors are again rife that the Park
will change hands. To whom it will
go we cannot say. Well, it's a good
place and we hope it finds a good
owner. Goodness knows it is deserving
of a better fate than being "booted"
around as it has been in the late years.
In the meantime the town authorities
are going ahead and dong their best
to make things go for. a fine summer
season. Let's hope it will be one of
the best.
The local postoffice was open Sun
day afternoon from four to five for
the air mail service, and despite the
nasty weather over a hundred air
mail letters were sent out. The Noun
tain Lake "cachet", or air mail en-
velopes for Sunday were printed in
red. There is also blue envelope.
The left-hand corner has a picture of
the DR.. Charles Baldwin cottage on
it. Miss Kathrine O'Donnell, the
local postmaster, had fine display of
small planes hung around the office.
Many posters of attractive designs
were on the walls. Mountain Lake
seems to be going minded"
