story by Peter B. Kyne-"POint". 1t
was a great short story-all about a
dog. In the foreword Mr.. Kyne says,
81 have bought many dogs, but l have
never sold one and | never Shall-tOo
much like selling old Uncle Tom down
the river, which really brings us to
what we want to say.
There is a movement here to organ
ize a humane society. From all we can
learn, it would be a very fine thing to
done, but each day brings few more
people to the front to say that they
will support such a movement.
Considering the time of the year, it
is gratifying to see so many cottagers
returning to the Park. 1t is also very
good to learn of the many inquiries
for property for the summer. This sea-
son has certainly started earlier than
most seasons at the Park.
Let's clean up.
With the news that the Baltimore
League will not be here this summer,
we are pinning our faith on Rev. Felix
Robinson and the Music Festival. Each
year it grows bigger and better. 1t is
hoped that each and every one will do
their utmost to help out. After all, it's
a great advertisement for Garrett
county, and Garrett county has great
deal to offer to other places.
Do you remember when
John Felty, Jr., had the. market I'M
der the Chautauqua Hotel? ..,
Floyd White was the only transfer
driver in Mountain Lake Park. He
met all trains, no matter what time.
Then he bought a Model T. Ford.
When a golf course was started be-
low the bowling alley? The crawish
soon put an end to that.
The first moving pictures were
shown at the Amphitheatre. 1t was
Edison's Projectiscope, and they had
illustrated songs with it.
