ing parks.
Such visitors receive most careful at
tention, and the York parks are pointed
out as examples of what can be done
when civic pride is aroused and set to work
A half and half mixture of civic pride and
cooperation. the people Of York say will
bring about wonderful results not only in
park making, but in any other line OF
public Improvement as well.
OF course York Is proud to have neigh
boring cities come there for Information,
for each junket means more advertising
for York, and the same idea and spirit
that brought the parks into existence also
imbues the York boosters with clear
understanding of the value of advertising.
There was a time when residents of the
smaller cities, not only in Nebraska but
elsewhere. as well, faneied that only the
big cities could establish and maintain
parks but that befogged idea has passed
into oblivion ond now the city of from
five to ten thousand inhabitants feels its
ability to perfect a park system along with
the towns Of greater commercial import
ance and greater population.

Something Wrong.

Several LAWYERS in a southern city were
discussing ne merits and dement's of a
well known member of the bar who had
been gathered to his fathers, when one
of the party related an incident of the time
when he had studied law in the old mans
office.

Ing clerk there kept the Judge continually
worked up 20 the point OF explosion. One
day a wire basket fell off the top of the
clerks desk and scratched his cheek. Not
having any court plaster the young man
slapped ON three postage stamps and went
on with his work.
Later in the day he had occasion to take
certain papers 20 the court and, forgetting
all about the stamps he put on his hat
TO go out At the door he met the Judge,
who raised his head and fixed the clerk
with an astonished stare.

crowd, and a heavy fine was imposed But
for the fact that the man pleaded Ignorance
of existing conditions and that circum-
stances seemed to back up his plea, the
punishment would have been even worse.
The park is not only well stocked with
squirrels, rabbits and other small animals,
but with song birds also
One of the most pleasant features Of the
park is the basket dinner idea which has
become quite fashionable in York. 1t Is
"A characteristic of York and the York
country to live well, and the dinners that
are spread upon snowy white linen on the
park grass in summer and autumn include
a little of everything that appeals to hun
cry man. Basket dinner parties are always

York visitors at once remark about the
beauty of the park system, and the city
has had much valuable advertising aside
from the material pleasure the citizens
derive-and 1t all came about through
civic pride evening chat and dollar con-
tribution idea.
York has long been accustomed to re-
ceiveing visits from mayors, aldermen and
Omaha daily bee., 1910-10-02

all other times as a part of the York
park
The people OF York having become thor
oughly impregnated with the park idea,
three years ago the city bought eight acres
on East Hin, and this ground has been set
with ash, elm and maple trees, thus max
ing park number two, which will appeal
especially to the residents of East York.
Adjoining this are the York athletic
grounds, used for base ball and foot ball.
Nearby are the grounds of the York Golf
club and the York Tennis club.
So, the little city Of York has set an
example in civic pride which might be
adopted TO advantage by many a larger
city. AS an illustration of how zealousy
the parks are guarded, especially the York
park number one which is now well estab-
lished, II is interesting to cite the case of
a laboring man who shot squirrel as it
jumped from bough TO bough in one OF the
stately park trees. He was new in York,
and had not at that time acquired full
understanding as to how York people re-
gard the park hence, when he saw the
squirrel he was seized by an impulse to
bring 1t down which he did. A park
policeman grabbed him and threw him in

Taxes are too high already" retorted

There is nobody in York too poor to raise

creek, hitherto a sluggish. ugly little stream
was made over into a rivuet with posy-
lined banks, scraggy trees were pruned
until they looked like nursery samples a
was formed and rose gardens were
scattered here, there and everywhere in
profusion. The gardener having finished
his work, the park was turned over to the
people, and how faithful they have been
to their trust is demonstrated by the fact
that each Arbor day brings to the park a
supplemental supply Of trees. shrubs and
flowers-not to be set out in haphazard
fashion, but according to designs furnished
by the gardener. Everybody in York has
an interest in the park Everybody in
York is devoted to the park. Everybody
