As the time approaches for
Northwest Airlines to start ser

want to clarify the point that the
airport truly belongs to the county
as a whole.

Corrects Inter Lakes'
Story on Lake McDonald
A few folks around Belton-Ap
gar are shrugging their shoulders
about the Daily Inter Lake's Wed
nesday afternoon story on Lake
McDonald freezing over.
Actually, the Hungry Horse
News is always glad to give in
formation on our part of the Flat
head, which we do. We would
have been delighted to have given
our daily paper more information
as to Lake McDonald, which in
cidently is the longest of the
park's 200 lakes.
The able country columnist was
correct when she reported tne
lake freezing over Monday, Jan
uary 10.
From there on the Inter Lake
should have spent 25 cents.
Their Wednesday front page
story added that Lake McDonald
froze over last year. It didn't.
Our beautiful lake's good name
■was also maligned by calling it
windy. Actually it's hard to find
a large mountain lake where there
is less wind.
