MT. LAKE PARK
Improvement Work Continues

tlnues to carry on It's good work. Many
pleasing comments have been hear,
from out-of-town people who had gon,
to Crystal Spring. The road is in ex
cellent condition and the spring anC
surroundings grounds are looking ex
ceptionally good. More work is being
planned for the grounds above ths
spring where picnickers may go wher
visiting the Park.
On Tuesday evening in the basement
of the Methodist church at 1880 there
will be another meeting to discuss
contemplated improvements and to put
into operation a plan whereby the club
may raise more funds to help in the
work. Several nice donations have been
received from interested summer Wis
itors. Mrs. Bleakly, president of the
organization is anxious to have as
many attend as possible. This applies
to both summer and all-year round
Park people. Surely we who live here
all the year should be just as interest
ed as those who come only during the
summer months. After all, it's our
Gown, so let each and every one get
back of this group and help.
