VT. LAKE PARK

past week has been the flood. Noun

little damage done here.

are not even worthwhile rumors.
Among the three latest rumors we
heard only one seemed to have much
foundation. After running this down
we were told that there was nothing
definite to be given out. So that't

The Ministerial Association is in
session here this week. The hotels are
filled, one to capacity as are many
other places. They have a splendid
program and fine group of students.
This years registration is the larg
est ever made.
Just a word about our roads. The
rain Of Saturday certainly proved that
the Mountain Lake Road Commission
ers (if that is their title) did a good
Job weeks before. Several of our very
poorest roads, which were put in con-
dition withstood that terrific down.
