OF her confinement was made by Am

PUBLIC PARK.

That delightful letter appearing
in the last issue of The Sea Coast
Echo over the pen name of Cath
arine Cole on the admirably Sc
lected subject of public improve
ments, a public park being the
most prominent, hasagain brought
that subject anew for discussion.
Saturday, December 81 1892, The
Sea Coast Echo printed a half
column editorial on the advisable
ity and suggesting that the people
of the place get together and work
in behalf of securing that end.
The following is extracted from
the article in question.
What Bay st. Louis should have
had long and as yet has not the
least hope of securing, is public
park--not a mere park for the
name of having one but for the
comfort and enjoyment four peO-
pie as we'll for the beauty and at
tractiveness it would be for our
many visitors. Public parks help
to make towns, and one here
would have the very same effect

ing, a Ihealthful accommodation,
comfort-giving, and, in brief, as
the poet Keats would say, "a thing
of JOY and beauty forever"
Such public spirited men like
Messrs. Yenni, Leibrook and
others were quick to see what the
suggestion, if carried out, meant,
and after organizing work was
begun in earnest, SIpt. Chas.
Marshall, eS =. IN railroad,
was appealed to and lent an H.
terest in the work to such an ex-
tent tina. he had his company to
give the use of their spacious de-
pot green to Re converted into a
park for the public. The services
OF landscape gardener was Sc
cured, donations of clam shells to
cover the garden paths, AMI
besides little cash, many other
donations had already been con-
tributed, but this beautiful pro-
ject was progressing in an entirely
too beautiful a manner tor that ele-
ment of Bay st. Louis that works
with a vim to kill avery improve
men set on foot, and abandon
ment was finally forced. Five
years since then will soon have
elapsed, and now a public park
probably could become reality.
Catharine Cofsywho says "a large
part of my heart belongs to beau
tiful Bay-Way eland and while life
lasts my pen is at their service,
with much generosity, although
not permanent resident, in adj
ditiOn to this assistance, ,subscribes
$40 cash as a nest egg to a park
fund. The Sea Coast Echo pro-
misses we'll its share of assistance,
and in substantial way, too;
were it capable it would do all
and ask no thanks. The gratifica-
tion of seeing the town have and
the people enjoy a public park
would aIone be pleasure worthy
Of the act, but while the will is
there any effort unsupported
would be useless. Let us organ
