Many Trees Being Planted

quite as dense as the forest primaeval
mentioned in "Evangeline," the MUIR
muring pines and the hemlocks will
be present in full force, thanks to the
gift of DeVer H. Warner. who has
donated $4,000 worth of these trees
to the park department. A big gang
of men is now at work setting out
trees throughout the park in such a
manner as to add greatly to it's nat
ural attractiveness.
The Hathaway tract at the northern
end of the Park is receiving lots of at
tention and is rapidly becoming one
Of the finest points in the park. A
new athletic field Of 10 acres, as level
as billiard table, and surrounded
by knobs which furnish a natural
grand stand, has been established in
the northern part of the park.
Some day the commissioners hope
to secure the land now belonging to
the Hydraulic company on both sides
of the Pequonnock river. beginning at
the northern part of the park. A
beautiful driveway, with rustic
bridges across the stream, can then
be established.
The work of the park department is
not being confined to Beardsley park
by any means. The other parks of the
city are coming in for attention and
all will be in excellent condition be-
fore summer is here.
