Again the members Of the Woman's
Park club, who have labored almost
increasingly during the past year for
the success of the city park, have
been successful for the improvement
of the forty acre tract was marked by
one Of the most cussessful lag days"
ganization composed of women. The
event was successful even beyond the
most sanguine expectations of those
who were instrumental in its inaug-
uratiOn, even though the weather, with
the wind and dust, was anything but
favorable. The women were determ-
ined, and when that fact became
known, everyone entered joyfully into
the spirit of the occasion, and their
efforts we're made the easier through
the cooperation of people in all walks
Of life who evidently believed perse-
Veranca should meet i just reward.
Promptly at o'clock. the hour des-
ignated by he central committee, the
subordinate committees appeared upon
the business streets, supplied with an
alomst inexhaustaible consignment of
the lite cards that were to play such
an important part in The progress of
the city. To anyone but members of
the Woman's Park club, it would have
been deemed an impossibility to have
disposed of them, but with hope writ
ten upon their countenances and with
a firm determination to make the best
of the opportunity, the ladies started
the work, and their success was shown
by the exhaustion of tags shortly after
noon.
AS a result of the event, the ladies
mately $1,000, one half of which is to
be used for the benefit of the free
public library, and the remainder for
the further development of the city
park. which is just now beginning to
assume the appearance of a recreation
ground.
Few residents of the city. and still
fewer strangers, were without the pre-
vailing insignia of the occasion. The
women Who were assigned 20 certain
business streets took particular pre-
cautions to see that no one would have

the greater number of comp aints reg

too many were engaged in the disposal
of tags. Bright and early a commit
tee, assisted by a number OF young
ladies appeared at the city hall, where
the farmers were gathering prepara
tory 20 going to the o. R. & n. depot
to listen to the addresses by the pro-
fessors on the demonstration train
Practically everyone at the city capito
was induced to make an investment
and city officials, fire boys, the police
