Summer Resort Talk

" In times of peace prepare for war" has been changed a little: In coldest weather of winter prepare tor the hot weather of gummer. Now, when there ia hard work to keep heat, the thoughta of some men turn as lightly to avoiding it, as a young man's tboughts turn to love. This is merely to introduce the fact that on Monday a dozen shivering gentlemen met in Ann Arbor to transact the business of the Old Mission Beach Resort association. They are as follows: A. Arnold Clark, of the State board of health office ; Jay P. Lee, a young and promising Lansing attorney; Deputy Railroad Commissioner Etnsom, Deputy State Treasurer Stagg, all of Lansing ; W. K. Gibaon, of Jackson ; and Drs. Vaughan, Frothingham, Breakey, H. S. Dean, Major Stevens, E. H. Scott, and Junius E. Beal, of Ann Arbor. The memberg of the association seleoted their lots and made arrangements for selling others. Mr. Gibson was made the attorney for the association. The Old Mission resort controlled and owned by this association includes 120 acres admirably adapted for the purpose designed. About 20 acres are cleared, 1300 feet of sidewalk laid, and four cottages erected. More cottages and sidewalk will be provided in the spring. Only one hotel will be permitted on the Resort, and only a limited number of lots will be sold. It is situated on a delightful bay, where no railroad can disturb it, and is likely to prove one of the most attractive of the many northern watering-places.
