Diseases.

same money and buildings VIII be
started In the spring. Tentative plans

Jacob Riis Urges Play Grounds for Aha
Children of the Poor.
So long as there is child in our land
who tolls in shop or tenement when he
should be out at play, whose school In
without playground. and whose ont
of-doors Is bounded by the cutters of
the public street, with never a tree or
shrub or flower, SO long the masses win
hate the classes, the policeman be to
the boy an enemy instead of a friend.
and the republic has not had a square
deal. TO give a boy back his child
hood is more than justice and common
sense; it is sane government.
This is my Christmas wish for your
cause and for us all, that abundant
common sense may come with the sea-

Nearly fifty years have passed since

years he has been in the thick of every

much to do with New York city's ex-
