The next thing we knew three of our canoes were being towed by the motorboat. The boat took as to our destination and we disembarked. That is, all except one feL low who missed the bank a little. We built a big bonfire and fried hamburgers, etc. Then we all gathered around the campfire and sang eongs.

CITY MUTING SHOWS TREASURY BALANCE AT FAVORABLE POINT The city council meeting on Monday evening brought out at least one point of lasting interest when the city treasurer's report showed a balance ef $17,576.45 in the general fund. While many moons must pass before the end of the fiscal year, May 1, 1M2, it is apparent that a normal run ef expenses can be handled very nieely. The council has several improvement projects in mind, such as a new Green street bridge over Boone creek and a sidewalk along the highway crossing the old mill pond site. Considerable interest has been shown in the sidewalk project at this time and the council seems inclined to co-operate if property owners are willing to expend a fair portion. It is felt that a sidewalk would be a safeguard against accidents and injury to pedestrians on this busy stretch of road. Fred C.
