Many Special Parties Were J
Held Along Tygert Last
Night. i
Sunday is the big day at all the
camps along the Valley River, but 1
there are hundreds that make an upthe-river
trip each day. Yesterday
svening fully one hundred caught the
5:15 o'clock train out of Fairmont to
visit various camps along the river. 11
Fortunately the train accommoda- e
lions for those that wish to vish up- a
the-river camps are very good. Those 1
that wish to take an evening trip '1
np the river to spend only about an s
hour in the river may leave Fairmont
at .5:15 p. m. and arrive back in b
Fairmont at 7:55 o'clock. Others that c
So not wish to return the same even- li
tag may catch an early train the next p
morning arriving In Fairmont before
seven o'clock. ii
Wednesday Is always a big day at e
all th? ramns. Yesterday evening)^
I special parties, marshmellow toasts, a
wiener roasts, and other out of door o
social events were enjoyed. The hot
weather during the last few weeks n
has raised the temperature of the wa- a
V ter until it is just right for bathing, t
yesterday evening the temperature of s
the air was Just about the same us
that of the water, making bathing .,
comfortable. 0
This evening there are many other j
social events scheduled at the Valley
River camps and if the sun continues ]
to shine brightly until evening, they J
will invite the attention of many
Fairmonters.
