COMMENDS Mr.. SHAW.
PRESIDING ELDER RULE C0NsID-
ERss HIS COURSE WISE

Some Of the Methodist ministers Of the
city are inclined to criticise Rev. George
Shaw, of Olivet church. severely, for his
action in going to work as a tailor on
week days rather than accept as his SAL
airy the proceeds of church sociables and
entertainments of similar character. Mr.
Shaws critics have intimated that mis-
attitude in this matter was a bid for the
attention of the grand stand, prompted
by desire to get himself talked about.
The Rev. F. M. Rule, presiding elder,
is, however, disposed to take more char
liable and reasonable view of the mat
ter and says that he does not blame Mr..
Shaw for doing work that will earn him
an additional income as there is not a
living in so small charge as Olivet
church. The church is located at Juno
and Victoria streets and the congrega-
ton is very small, including only about
twenty-five men all told. 1t mas been
customary; Mr.. Rule explains, to give 1t
to student and Mr.. Shaw has been the
incumbent for the past year while con-
Guiding his course at Hamline university
He has married since he took the charge
and as his salary from all sources is but
$3.50 a year, or tnereabouts, Mr.. Rule IS
inclined to think he has acted wisely.
Mr. Rule would not be interviewed on
the matter of accepting money from So
Gals.

anything to do with the fund, which

III the position taken.

that the money received by Treasurer
Metziorf, as tag collector, be turned
into the treasury at the end of each
month. and that as a matter of accom-
mediation Auditor Johnson could draw
warrants in payment of bills not to ex-
coed the amount on hand, the bills to be
be signed and certified to by at least
three members Of the commission.
County. Auditor Johnson said that,
while he was not called upon to draw
warrants, in this case he stood ready
to assist in strengthening out the matter
and he would do the extra work provid-
ing the bills were properly sworn to and
signed by three members of the commits
sion.

luton was passed to this effect, all the
members conCurring, those present be-
ing DR. ]. c.. Nelson, president and

CHILDREN THR0NG THE POPULAR
PLAYGROUND.

Fully $50 children and half as many
mere of those who have passed the limit
of childhood, were present at the opening
of the Commons playground at Ninth
and Jackson last evening. Tho evening
was spent by the children in playing and
romping and by the elder ones in lis
tening to the music and singing of those
who volunteered to assist in entertaiA
ing the crowd
The playground. which is run in con-
nection with the Commons, Is not at all
an experiment. This is the third year
Of it's existence and it has been a popular
resort for the children Of the neigh
borhCod. 1t is furnished with swings,
teeters, turning rings sand piles and all
these things that are the childs delight.
A hired attendant is in charge of the
grounds during the day and evening
to look after and care for the children
The younger ones are sent home at
$50 but the older ones are allowed to
remain until O'Clock. Certain rules
are in force and a violation of them de-
bars the offender from the use of the
grounds for a time. The superintend-
ent says that this is all the discipline
that is necessary. for the children so
appreciate the privileges Of the grounds
that they arc careful to do nothing that
would exclude them from its privileges.
Miss Hanson is the superintendent of
the work and Mrs Emma Youngquist,
of Cedar Falls, Iowa, is to be the attend
ant Miss Hanson says that the grounds
have been great help to the mothers
of the neighberhood in furnishing place
where the children can play and at the
same time be under the immediate care
of one who has nothing else to do. In
this way the tired mother gets a little
relief or an opportunity TO so about
dren to bother her. One evidence of
the success of the work is the manner
in which the people Of the neighborhood
contribute to its success, the contrlbu-
tons this year being more liberal than
ever, before.
