This is a question that has been handed to us -by the mayor and he de sires to pass it on to the people of the community. Do the people really want a park? That is the question. If they do they can have it. A year ago, as we understand it, certain persons met and in cooperation with the civic association rented the .plat of land on xcTiirvh thp noT-lr u'Qc tpmnnroHIv nnpn ed. Now they have had another meeting and find that if the people want a park it will cost something to have one, and the question is, where is the money to come from. Do the people want a park? Bf they do it is very easy to get one. A little cooperation and a little pulling together is all that is needed. IWe understand that the owner of the land on which the park has been operated during the oast year will take about $2 - 000.00 for the land. Mr. Mayor told us that if $1,200 could be raised the park could be assur d. Surely the gentlemen and ladies at the head of the movement "will not admit that the small sum of $1,200 could not be raised in a rwmTrmnitv fnr a park. I: they do admit it, and It is true, then the people do n<xt want a park. Some years ago we had over three thousand dollars subscribed for a park, but we needed more than that at that time, because we wanted to extend it on to tCalhoun street and the matter was just dropped, les, ?i,zw, or even $2,000, can he raised for a parfc if the proper effort is put forth.

THE M.iECH DDEBATE THE BIG EVENT OF THE SEASON A. big event every year in the life of Xcwberry college is the annual debate between the Excelsior and PhreniKosmian literary societies, otherwise known as "the March debate."

The opera house, 011 the occasion of j these March debates, is usually crowd- j ed, but last Friday night it was al- j most a capacity house. On account of: i the splendid reputation of the speakers 1 as orators and the further fact that! ' subject to 't-e discussed was one: of supreme national interest just at i ; this time there were many out-of-town ' ! visitors. The debate was spirited and j ! (held, the unabated interest oC the au- i ! dience from the start to the finish. The | young men who delivered orations and j the young lady essayist and the de-: | haters deserve much credit for their j j efforts, reflecting as they did deep i thought and painstaking preparation. i As usual each society had chosen its representatives and the eexreises were i carried out in the following order: i James Kinard of the Excelsior so| c-iety presided and presented as the i j first orator of the evening Mr. IW. J. j ! Proctor of the PhrenaTcosmian society, j who spoke on the subject, "The ^outh j of Today." The subject l:*or -debate! was, "Resolved, That Imigration to the United States Should he Further Re j stricted by a Literacy Test." .
