Cornell Campus and Cayuga Lake 



A Warning 

 To Visitors 



Seneca and Cayuga J^akes have acquired the 

 unenviable reputation of exacting their toll ot 

 human lives each year from those who sail, row 

 or paddle on their waters. The lakes need have 

 no terrors for those who will use ordinary com- 

 mon sense. It is unwise for anyone who cannot 

 swim to venture far from shore in a canoe or 

 small row boat, for occasionally storms come up 

 unexpectedly. In mid-lake the water, because 

 of its great depth, is cold almost the year round. 

 Even experienced swimmers are liable to cramps 

 if they remain in the water for a great length ot 

 time. It is wise for visitors who venture on the 

 lakes to secure the services of an experienced 

 boatman. When this is done the joys of canoeing, 

 yachting and motorboating may be enjoyed 

 without fear of mishap. 



Sports of the 

 Lake Region 



The motorist who intends to spend his vacation 

 in the Finger Lakes Region is advised to bring 

 his golf clubs if he is fond of the links. There 

 are numerous country clubs throughout the region 

 and some of the hotels have courses for the use 

 of guests. The rolling hillsides of the lake coun-' 

 try make hazards which will arouse the enthu- 

 siasm of all lovers of the sport. 



The visitors to the lake country who do nol 

 come by motor may secure carriages, automo- 

 biles, motor boats, yachts, row boats or canoes 

 by the day or hour at almost any of the cities and 

 villages located on the lakes. Good trout and 

 bass fishing are found in the lakes of the region 

 and late in the fall duck shooting is a popular 

 sport. Quail, partridge, pheasant, squirrel and 

 other small game furnish plenty of diversion for 

 the hunter.
