business, but the one that presents a
fine, modern appearance, that has wen
paved streets, neat and clean side
walks, good business blocks, attractive
driveways, and not least, If last, spa
clous and well improved parks.
Probably not one Of the towns ana
cities that did not take kindly to the
creation OF public parks when the agi-
tation was at its height, but finally ac-
cepted the idea. would, If 1t were pos

their total cost. II has been found IN
some of the towns that the parks have
earned money for the taxpayers, and
from financial point Of view are good
investments writes NJ. o. Stone In the
Review Of Reviews.
Attractive parks now occupy large
areas that for years were distractions
TO the extension and material prosper
ity Of many towns and cities, and as
these unsightly and waste places were
gradually improved and beautiiied the
value Of land in those neighborhoods
soon began TO rise. officials represent

that real estate near their park terri
tory has increased In valuation greatly
beyond the average increase in other
parts Of their cities.

sHAMRoCKs TRYING AGAIN.
They Got Away Just Before 12 O'clock To-day.

New York, July 21.-(From the Steam Yacht Erin, via the DeForrest Wireless Photography "A dense fog overhung the anchorage of the Shamrocks at Sandy Hook at 9 a. m. today, when the sail ors on the racers began to hoist their sails. It was calm in the bay, but half an hour later the sun burned through the fog and the yachtsmen on the Erin prophesied clear skies. At 9:3O the yachts had mainsails and c1ubtopsails set and head sails up in stops.
 A gentle northwest wind had par tialIy cleared away the fog when Shamrock left the Hook at 1O:3O and ran out to sea under sail.
 At 11:3O the tug Cruiser was sent 10 miles east by southeast for mark The race was to be three times to the mark and return. Shamrock 1 went over starting line first at Il :42:35 and Shamrock III followed at il :43:07. The new boat quickly took the lead and at the start seemed to be running away from the old one.
