W.T.. LAKE PARK

"Now the laborer's task is DER:
Now the battle day is past;
Now upon the farther shore
Lands the voyager at last.
Father in Thy gracious keeping
Leave we now Thy servant sleep
ing"
In the sudden passing of "I ommy"
Compton last week the Park lost an
other fine and useful person. This COM
munity was shocked, and he will be
missed.
Almost at the same time and on the
same day "Billy" Traver passed away
down in Virginia. "Billy" spent the
greater part of his life here in the
county.
And so it goes-each year there ar
a few more missing faces.
Our articles on the Young Wild Life
League have brought US number Of
interesting facts. Unfortunately space
does not permit US to give them his
week. One thing we will mention, how
ever:
Edward O'Donnell is afraid he will
get the crdit for the game shelter on
his property and he asks that we tell
you that the Young Sportsmen's Club
and League of Loeb Lynn alone are re-
sponsible and that he only gave the
ground for this.
And speaking of shelter, Mr.. Wiley
yelling says if there is anyone know
ing of needed shelter or food for wild
life, will they please get in touch with
him. One thing seems certain, neither
the birds or the squirrels will suffer
this winter.
One person wants to know what
about all the poor stray cats and dogs
wandering around the Park?" Well,
we know of two stray cats and one
stray dog that found homes last week,
which wasn't bad, considering the
looks of all three. A month from now
we won't know them.
