the past month, the grove has been
enlarged to nearly twice its usual size,
the grounds lcvelled and underbrush
all cleared away and in its place is
found practically q new grove, with
the pleasing feature of a running brook.
This has been divided into several
dams and six continuous waterfalls

an unpleasant part of the grounds.
The brook is to be stocked with trout
and goldfish and will prove an attract

covered by fine gravel which is much
better suited for this purpose than the
tan bark covering of the past The
capacity of the picnic grounds is prac-
tically doubled and in addition to the
recent enlargement Of the dancing
pavilion and booths, are fifty new
tables, one hundred new seats. and
twenty-five new swings. The rush Of

George c. Harte has been the prime
mover in the affair. He worked up in
terest among the men, took up the col
lection, and bought the flag, which is
beauty. Superintendent Manville
erected the pole on the south side Of
the pockets. 1t is a beautiful staff.

eighteen feet. A temporary platform
was arranged for the exercises, and
was decorated with flags and stream
