to be the prevailing opinion of naval

Have a Little Kick About Some
Of improvements at Glen
Miller Park.
OPPOSED TO REST ROOMS
THINK IT WAS UNNECESSARY TO
ERECT THESE BUILDINGS THIS
sEAsoN-PARk COSTS CITY A
LARGE SUM.

That economy in municipal affairs
is almost lost sight of by certain men,
bers OF the city administration when
ever Improvements in Glen Miller
park are proposed is the popular opin-
ion of several members of council
and other city officials. Although not
wishing to oppose improvements in
Glen Miller, it is claimed that the
two new rest rooms for women be-
ing constructed there by Superinten-
dent of Parks Ed Hollern and the
roadway opened in the back of the
Glen extending to the National road,
are expensive and unnecessary i'm
provements which might be delayed
several years without mountaineering
any one.
The rest rooms are very complete.
The buildings will cost in the neigh.
borhood of $1,000 and the roadway
will cost several hundred dollars. All
city officials agree that these i'm
provements add greatly to the park
but some of them hold that improve
menus OH CHe CITY StTeeLS are IuuCu
more necessary now. The reason as
signed by members of the board for
not making necessary repairs to the
city streets is that there is no ready
money at hand and that absolute econ.
omy must be practiced or the city will
| likely be bankrupt. At the same time
however, it is complained, a thousand
dollars is unnecessarily spent for rest
rooms at the park.
Glen Miller park is at best not a
gold mine. This year it will cost
practically $500 to keep it up with
an income of less than a hundred dol
lars. Last year the park cost the
city $5,9O5.33 but no additional ex
penses came up such as have beer
incurred this year. The E. G. Hill
green house has been renting a tract
of land in the park during the las
few years but this year the park of
ficials took the ground over and arr
filling it. To do this some new i'm
plements were purchased, costing /,
considerable sum. 1t is stated mex
year the expenses of the park will b.
less than that of 1910.
