One of the committee of ladies has
made casual canvass of the resi-

sympathetic, and, if possible, financial
support for the proposition. In one
or two instances instead of support
there has been decided antagonism eX-
perienced. But the great majority
of those whose homes face on the
park are quite willing to heartily as

tie others can be won over,
