MT. LAKE PARK

/
Wetzel as host and hostess.
Quite a number of important ques-
tons came up and were disposed of.
One which has been bothering many
residents was the question of who
cuts the grass in the Parks public
spots? 1t was decided that a moving
machine was necessary for this work,
accordingly a committee from the I'M
provement Club was appointed to meet
with representative of the town
council and Mr.. Wetzel, manager of
the Park. Just now the Park is almost
enclosed with the high grass and the
weeds.
One thing that was most apparent
and most gratifying was the spirit of
cooperation shown on Monday night
between the new Park management,
the town officials and the citizens.
The membership of the club now
numbers around fifty, many of whom
are summer residents. The club is
anxious to have more of the yea:
round citizens attend these gather
ings.
