Suggestion OF What to
Do With Mckinley
Fund.

Editor Advertiser: The funds sub
scribed for memorial to President
Mckinley, are to be devoted to the es-
tablishment OF playground. This
has been decided by the committee.
but no active steps have as yet been
taken to carry out the plan.
The Commissioners of Kapiolani
park are considering what to do with
the pond and marsh within the race
track so as to increase the utility and
beauty of the premises in their care.
If these facts are as I believe them
to be-, venture to make the sugges-
ton that perhaps arrangements can
be made to combine these two projects.
Kapiolani park is the natural play
ground of Honolulu
The Oahu Polo Club has spent ap-
proximately $500 in improving a third
of the area within the race track by
clearing the bushes and filling in the
holes with loan. Today this is the
only public playground in the city with
the exception of Makiki park. If this
whole area could be filled up and turf
ed over and an appropriat tely inscribed
gateway erected, would not the pur-
pose for which the fund was subscrib-
ed be carried out, and would not the
park be more useful and attractive
The cost of maintenance would be
small The area is large enough fol

at once.
