MT. LAKE PARK

Mt. Lake is having its best summer
season in some years. The hotel,
rooming houses and boarding places
are filled. Next week a variety of en-
tertainment is offered Oakland Cen
tennial, Western Maryland Tennis
Tournament, the lot sale, the carni-
val and Deep Creek Lake Boat Races.
This seems to be a good place to
mention our own small lake. For
those who are good "hikers" the lake
is an attraction, but folks coming in
with cars cannot easily reach this
spot, in fact its almost hopeless to
use either road to the spring. Wonder
why something is not done about it?
