Long Point Progressvie Association  



Cottagers on West Side Unite in an Organization

There are 42 cottage owners on the west side of the lake, largely grouped around Long Point.

The little community has many interests in common which can only be efficiently promoted by concerted effort. To accomplish this an organization has been formed called the "Long Point Progressive Association".

Frank B. Murphy has been elected president. Charles Monniger vice president, and Herman Habich sectetary-treasurer.

Among the improvements immediately proposed is the oiling of the highway from the railroad station to the point, and the placing of lights along that section of the thoroughfare.

These inprovements will be of as much benefit to the traveling public as to the cottage owners.

Another project whose accomplishment lies in a more remote future is the concreting of the road

This road project is also in contemplation by the cottagers of the East side. The co-operation, is not the entire execution of this work by the county commissioners will be necessary
