ers and guests. Faces we had not seen
in many years with old acquaintance
meeting. The square dancing was en-
joyed by nearly all present. Certainly
the social side got off to good start.
Mentioning the players of some
years ago, we understand that Paul
Sullivan is back again after an alb
sence of six years. Then, too, we heard
rumor that contrary to other reports
John Brown in persons would arrive.
Well, now we know it's all right. The
weather, too, seems to be favoring the
players.
Last but not least, Congressman
Randolph is here in the lineup. For
twenty years or more he has been COM
ing to Mountain Lake Park. On Satur-
day afternoon at the conclusion of the
finals he will present the cups and the
trophies to the successful contestants.
On Saturday morning, August 10,
from Station WMMN, Fairmont, over
nationwide hookup Congressman
Randolph will deliver a radio address
on the progress of American aviation.

Lake To Be Cleaned Up; Crystal
Spring Surroundings Beautifed
About the finest piece of news we
have heard in some time is this: Crys-
tai Spring and the lake are to be put
in first condition and the surroundings
beautifed generally.
This was decided on Tuesday night
at a meeting held by the Park I'M
proVement Club. About fifty persons
were present at this gathering, and
the following officers were elected;
Mrs, Gregory Bleakly, president; Har-
vey Crisis, vice-president; Mrs. W. B,
Love, secretary; Rev. Gregory Bleak
ly, treasurer.
There are a number of projects this
group are planning to put into opera
ton, but it was decided to start work
at once on the lake and spring. Other
matters will be taken up later.
Ii you have any suggestions or
should like to help in any manner,
won't you get in touch with some Of
these folks. Its very needful and
worthy work.
This group of public spirited citi-
zens deserve all of the aid and cooper
alton they can get from the rest of US.
