we hope to carry this principle of self
government still further. II it works
well, we hope to introduce it in all the play
grounds Of the city.
The substitution Of informal for formal
play on the Fairgrounds has had very
good effect. When the play on the play
grounds was under the charge of the Board
Of Education it was all directed and or
gained by the instructors. Since the
Park Department has taken 1t over the
instructors do not organize or direct any
play.
"We let the boys do all that for them
selves. and simply stand ready to give
advice, assistance or instruction when it
Is asked for. As a result, there is a great
deal more interest, and the best players
Of the neighborhood come to the park, when
formerly they stayed away.
THE selection OF two boys prominent
in athletics as candidates for Mayor shows
the value Of publicity in politics. really
think it will be an interesting study in
popular government to zee how the scheme

Of graft have been already noted on the
grounds.
One was among the monitors Of the
swings. These monitors ara appointed
because of good behavior. They stand next
the swings and count the number of swings
each child may enjoy when there is lima Of
children waiting their turn. When the
waiting line is long each child may have
onlytwenty-fves swings. When 1t ia shorter
they may swing fifty times apiece.
1t was discovered that the monitors were
selling their positions for cent. This might
be called an Innocent graft, as the position
ia an honorary one with no emoluments
attached, and its sale injured no one.
But out of it developed distinctly dis
honest graft. when the monitors were dis
covered permitting those fortunate young
sters who had cents to pay to swing longer
than the others. This was a spontaneous
development Of graft among very young
children.
Among the older boys a spontaneous
development Of form Of ticket specu-
lation took place In bad weather last
winter indoor athletic contests took place
in the stone building. The room would

been put in charge OF the matter. The basis
on which each boy was admitted to the
privileges of the electorate was very simple.
He was required to answer the question:
what is votingp"
Some of the boys thought voting was
something to play with. Others thought it
was a drill, others new game. All such
boys. mostly little fellows. failed to qualify,
and the election was left in the hands OF an
intelligent constituency.
For weeks q continuous, quiet campaign
has been going on in the boyland Of Hamil-
ton Fish Park. The introduction Of party
names has been forbidden by the manage
ment.
The election is to Re on purely good gov
