MT. LAKE PARK

aver anything very terrible happens
OF that we see witches and the like, but
is Just a sorta nervous feeling. Last
year things were peaceful and quiet
. few tick-tackers here and there;
some chairs hung on trees and garbage
cans moved a mile away from theil
zightfuI location. And so this season
We are hoping it will be no worse
After all it is a night to celebrate, even
lao Bobby Burns does lay down Hal
5owe'en pranks at the doors of the
aueulightened people. All we can say
< that there must be a powerful lot
If those folks.
The Park Improvement Club and
.oWn officials want to thank the people
ii the Park for their cooperation in
&eeping Crystal Springs and its sur
souudings clean. Without this coopera-
sion there would be little use to beauti-
~ If we all keep this in mind not only
Is regards the spring, but all over
zhe Park it will be worth the time and
trouble Of all those responsible for
1hjs work.
Better be careful where you cut
3oWn trees. Be sure it's on your own
property or that you have permission
I it is not. The Association has given
a0tice that there must be no trespass-
rig on their property and the town
feels the same way. Heretofore there
has been little or no attention paid as
SO whose trees were cut or where. Now
IT'S different and it is a pretty good
law, Too many trees are being cut in
she Park Our trees are a big asset to
:he Park.
Remember when we said that all the
housewives were going to the cider
mills? Well, today two very nice
ladies', Mrs. Mary May and Mrs. A. V.
Schaefer, had taken load of Grimes
Golden and another apple of the sweet
variety to the mill. When they re-
surned they brought us a jug of the
9settiest vintage you ever saw and the
taste was even prettier. Well, maybe
He will get some place yet with this
column. First, it was flowers; now its
cider. Wonder what would be our next
best bet to praise or talk about.
