CHILDREN TAKE LAST

The last play day of the season was
there being about FIVE hundred child
rtn present TO enjoy the feature 1t
was a big day for the little ones and
their shouts of joy and laughter could
be heard several blocks away, as they
raj Licipated in the various amuse-
ments which the park superintendent
bad so thoughtfully provided.
The sand pile was simply crowded
, with lincoln pennies and the wee tots
found great encouragement in digging
out the shining coppers. There was
something for everybody. There were
races of every kind, ball games, pun
ins contests and many other features
too numerous to mention.
1t was with much regret that the
children left the park when the
shadows of evening began to fall.
Aren't We going TO have another big
day." queried the children after Mr..
Eain had informed them that the last
day was over. They simply couldn I
believe 1t. One little girl threw her
arms around the park superintend-
ent's neck and begged of him to have
Just one more play day.
There has never been anything in
Marion that furnished the degree OF
enjoyment for the children like the
Ir'ay day. Everyone has been a great
success and they will be continued
rext year.

HOW 800 HELP A
 BLIND VICTORIAN
Charles J. Piggolt and Ills Family Sup.
 ported by Fellow Trolley Workers

One of the touching human interest scenes in New Haven ,s witnessed ev- cry Wednesday afternoon when the 500 or more of trolley men in the em- ploy of the Connecticut company are paid or at the Ford building at the corner of Chapel and State streets.
 After receiving their 'roll'' for the week, every man of them walks up to Dox which to them represen Mo- torman Charles J. Piggott of Hotch- Kiss street, who was stricken blind while on duty and deposits an offering or sympathy for him. These contri- buttons amount to important figures weekly, and they are reiigiously ob- served. They support MT. Piggott, who is unable to help himself.
 Piggott, four years ago, was one of the healthiesr and most active of the motormen in the employ of the com pany. While running his car down the Lighthouse Point route he was sud- denly and inexplicably stricken with blindness, from which he has never specialists at the expense of himself, the railroad company and the Trolley mems union. Division PSI, but he has never been able to gain relief in any way and today he is as far from re- covering his eyesight. apparently. as ever. At the time that he was strick- en. Piggott was a member of the union in good standing-in fact he was one of the most valued members of that organization. Consequently his case has always come up at the benefit meetings which have to be held by the hard-working knights of the troll ley in the dark hours when all New Haven is asleep, because these men have no other time in which they can assemble all their fellows to discuss such matters.
 And so his case is well known to them all. and 1t is no cross for any and all of them to drop a coin into the box which is reserved at the door way for the stricken motorman.
 The case is believed to be without parallel in New England. at least and it furnishes an excellent object les son of the helpfulness of organization when its best efforts are carried out
