Some Of those who have heretofore
been opposed to the paving Of Kansas
avenue to the park are now IN favor Of
it. They have come to see that the
benefit would be far greater than in or
binary cases like the paving of any
other street. This arises from the very
l evident fact that it would do much to
/ insure further improvements at the
/ park which Of itself will be a benefit
to the entire First ward. The expert
ence of the past has proven that q ten
/ cent fare to FineWoOd Is not popular
while the distance is too great for a five
! cent fare. The Vdnewood experiment.
/ has made il clear that some such re-
/ sort is greatly desired by the Topeka
public but that it should be more ac-
/ cessibIe. The fare should not only be
cheap but there should be a saving ia
/ time TO reach It in order to be the most
/ popular. Then the boating facilities will
/ cut a big figure At Garfield park there
is room for extensive. rowing ais well as
an opening for launches. 70 ply on the
