Value Of Small Parks.
From the Chicago Post.

Among the many improvements enlight.
ened citizens are planning for the city the
establishment of small parks in or very near
near the congested districts of the city Is
one of the most fruitful betterments we
could accomplish We are coming to realize
that the large parks are not available to
the people who most need them. The lona
ride. the expenditure for street car fares
the time required-aH are conditions prae-
tically prohibitive to their enjoyment by
most wage earners. AS the people Of the
congested districts cannot go to the parks
the parks must be brought to them. All
the truisms of social betterment swell the
cry for the small parks. 1t must not, 1t will
not, be ignored.
