1t is with regret that this column
announces the sudden death of Mrs

Va. Mrs. Davidson had long been as
socated with civic affairs of the ParE
and was greatly interested in the
coming School of Missions program
She will be greatly missed.
The question seems to be in Mt
Lake Park: What is going to happier
to the new roads now that the WPA
work has stopped?
The Mountain Chautauqua pro.
grams being presented each Sunday
deserve a better fate than they are
getting. Attendance has been light de-
spite the high class talent given to
the public. Perhaps that's the trouble
Maybe it's too high class. The tend
ency these days seems to be that en-
tertainment should not be of the in
structive or educational type, but
rather of lower order. Be that as it
may, the fact remains that the pro
grams are good and that some fine
artists are on them.

Saturday, July 18th. This will be the
Twenty-fifth anniversary and a

jamie Bradford and Miss Jean Pound
The "Sweet Spot" stand at the
Amphitheatre will be. open July a.

Hotel England is a popular place
these DAYS. Located as it is and with
all modern facilities it is busy place.
Miss England for whom the Hotel
was named, is here, and she also is
a busy person. One thing is certain to
all and sundry, and that is, the De-
tenders of the Faith are not ely by
night" organization. In other words,
we believe that Miss England and
her associates are really and truly in
earnest so far as their efforts go to-
wards making Mt. Lake a real place.
