VILLAGE ART.
Where the Impulse to Improve Must
Get Its Start.

Where the Impulse to improve Must
Get Its Start.
Village art in America must be the
fruit of education says the Chicago
Post England has Il Garden City assO-
citation that pursues its educational
schemes through drawing room meet
ings." The impulse to improve must
have its beginnings in the public spirit
of a group Of townspeOple. If the Old
fashioned revival spirit, with its enthu-
siasm for good works, can be awak-
ened in any neighborh0od, the passion
for tree planting. lawn making flower
gardens and fountains will find many
followers.
The average suburban town mGsquer-
aiding under the name of village suf-
fers in the first instance ~ the rules
of subdividing Il farm ne the con-
tract system of building rows Of neie-
CANT houses to fit fifty foot lots. Tie
artistic hand has the problem Of drap
ing this angular frame in shrubbery,
trees. and vines Owing to the variable
quality of human nature it is folly to
hope that each villager viii do his
share. The neglectful and thOughtless
will always be with us, and the group
bent on village art must overlook the
ninety and nine to follow the ideals of
the one just man who has learned to
love the rewards of beauty.
Beneath the fact of making streets
houses and lawns agreeable and at
tractive TO the eyes and the other fact
Of increasing the property value there
by is the moral influence of inviting
home surroundings and recreation
grounds.

GOOD FOR CHILDREN.
Value of School Fairgrounds as As
serted by Parents.


The following may be Of interest as
showing the impressions that parents
get of the value Of the playground in
fiuence on their children. says the Leaf

rect quotations:
1T kept him off the streets. and

happiness by having something to do"
Kept him out Of mischief" kept his

These are typical Of many express
sons used by parents who felt that
their boys were through the play school
benefited rather than injured by the
long vacation. They are by no means
exhaustive Of what might be said in
summary of the value of Fairgrounds
for country children, but they certainly
will prove suggestive to those who are
concerned about the children Of the

Town Beauty Scheme.

The first move in the plan to make
York, Pa, the city beautiful was
made recently when under the auspices
of the York assembly of the Dauphin
institute, assisted by public spirited
citizens. Professor Zueblin of Chicago
university delivered his lecture on
'The Twentieth Century City, or the
City York Ought to Be- says the
Municipal Journal and Engineer. Pro
fessor Zueblin would have the city by
its regularly constituted bodies or
through its public spirited citizens lay
out 4 definite plan of action, plan
that would provide for parks, sewers.
the elimination Of poles, the beautify-
ing of the lawns, the prevention Of cor
porations from doing as they please in
tearing up streets, street car conges-
ton in the public square and q hundred
and one everyday common sense rem
edies that most citizens have long been
aware Of, yet fail to get at the foUnda-
ton Of, for lack Of a general plan of
action. Professor ZuebIin would have
the city fathers, official or real. decide
on what they want in the years to
come and then "go after it, SO that the
future generations may take up the
work that has been started and carry
it to completion

An Animated Eraser.

The late Dr Henry Martyr Field,
SAYS the Boston Transcript some years
ago related at a Williams alumni din
ner a rather amusing incident of his
freshman days at college. Being only
twelve years old when he entered, he
had not reached the point where the
natural friction between the big boy
and the small boy ceases, and he was
at particular feud with one of his fel-
lows, a stalwaTt country youth fresh
from the farm. One day young Field
went early TO the class room and put
upon the big blackboard very eXas-
perating caricature of his enemy, with
his name beneath. When the aggrieved
party saw what had been done, he
said not a word, but, catching up his
youthful tormentor, he used him as an
eraser and, after rubbing out the of
fensive picture, quietly returned to his
seat.

Individual Tree Planting on Streets.

Individual Tree Planting on Streets.
In view Of the extensive planting Of
trees on streets which is done it is sur
prising to see the mismanagement or
lack of any management whatsoever
existing in most Of our cities and
towns, says the Los Angeles Times.
Every one plants to suit himself, hav-
ing a favorite tree of his own, and
ninety times out of hundred no provi-
sions are made to promote the exist
ence Of the newly planted tree. A hole
is dug and the tree buried in it. and
that is the end. The proper remedy
lies in a good state law or town ordi-
nance that will prevent irrational
treatment of public highways
