It has oc curred to ua- that Calhoun Park could easily be converted into a public play ground at a small cost, provided, "bf course, that the nearness of the dispen sary would not be too much of a draw back. As it now stands it receives very little attention and is far from being “a thing of beauty arid a joy for ever.” Why not make it useful as well as ornamental? If, however, it is im practicable to make this change some more suitable location could no doubt be secured at a very small cost. Such a play-ground would serve to keep the children off of the streets and out of mischief. We don’t believe that the parents fully realize the dangers that their boys and girls run when they play on the streets. We have seen several near-accidents this fall, in which small boys have narrowly missed being run down by vehicles. Let’s get togeth er and provide a play-ground. Only those that have seen one can appreciate the really pretty sight of a lot of young sters thoroughly enjoying themselves in a way that aj>|>< als so strongly to their red American blood.

In commenting on the vast amount of moneys spent for automobiles in this county, a contemporary wants to know where it all comes from.
