MT. LAKE PARK

Work is soon to start on new prof.
ect here in Mountain Lake Park. The
town officials have planned that as
soon as weather conditions permit a
hard surfaced street will be built from
near the Gnegy mill up E street to the
corner of Oak street at the home OF
Mrs. Winchell, thence east to G street
at the entrance to the auditorium,
thus making a complete circle of I'M
proved highway. The second street to
be improved will be in the neighbor-
hood of the Methodist church. This is
progress, at least. We have remained
stationary too long, but with these i'm
provements in the near future we be-
lieve there may be chance left us to
rehabilitate the town.
Monday morning many were feeling
that good weather had finally decided
to come and stay bit. Even on Tues
day it wasn't so bad, sort of summer
rain, but on Wednesday Mr.. Groudhog
gave us the laugh, for it was blizzard
proper. Anyhow, it cannot last much
longer; so cheer up.
