VT. LAKE PARK

to c. M. Hood, president of the camp
meeting association, cts better than
ever" And certainly from all direct
reports this is true. The program has
some very splendid speakers on it.
Somehow one cannot imagine Noun
tain Lake Park without a camp meet
ing.
We have been again Intercepted
regarding the whereabouts (if any Of
the drinking fountain presented some
years ago to the community by the
Women's Civic Club of the Park.
This fountain stood for a number Of
years on the grounds of the taberna-
Gle. Apparently it has mysteriously
disappeared. Last year when this
question was raised in this column we
were told it was undergoing repairs.
1t would seem now, that camp meet
ing is in progress, and soon the Music
Festival will be held, that the ladies
responsible for the presentation of
the fountain would like to see it put
into service. And it really is needed.
What about it?
The West Virginia State Road Map
issued monthly, should be of particu-
lar interest to Garrett county people.
For the first time this map shows the
road from Route 219 to Markleysburg
via Friendsville. The map is unusu-
ally fine and Maryland is clearly
marked on it.
It's rather interesting to know just
how that Friendsville road happened
to be on the West Virginia Map. Last
summer Mr.. and Mrs. Mortimer Smith
were summer visitors. Mr.. Smith at
that time was chief engineer of the
West Virginia Road Commission. On
one of his weekend visits here with
Mrs. Smith his attention was called 30
this road being an integral part Of
the West Virginia system. Mr.. Smith
was interested enough to make an in
vestigation.
We are glad that Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith will again be in Mountain Lake
Park for the summer.
Il The Mountain Lake Hotel will hold
its second dance of the season on Sat
urday night. Henry Grusendorf's or
>, chestra will play. A number of out-of-
Town people will arrive on Saturday to
attend.
One Of the most noticeable improve
ments to be seen in Mountain Lake is
that on the State road from the Bowl
ing Alley to the Rest. The Roads Com
mission has removed the fences and
the road is now open and on level
with the glade.
