PLAYGROUND. for Al, Amer;e..

When the Playground Associa-
ton OF America Was organized. writes
Howard 8. Brancher, secretary Of the
Survey. mo M imagined that in the
year l90s-19lO eight American cities
alone would authorize bond Issues for
play centers for the total amount Of
100000 or that Cincinnati would this
year spend $1,000. 900 for public recrea-
ton. and Grand Rapids. 900. 900.
During h last two years 246 liner
lean cities have established play
grounds for the first time and other
communities to the number Of 195 are
now conducting campaigns for them.
Orphan asylums. hospitals for the in
sane and institutions for the feeble
minded have made special provision for
the recreation Of their wards. The
children in schools for the blind are
almost as happy in their play as see
Ing children. Churches are giving the
of their grounds and county fairs
lave had playground exhibits. In some
cities both political parties in their
platform have declared for outdoor rec
..eation centers.
THE greatest danger OF the play
ground propaganda has been its rapid
growth. All persons familiar with q
certain 100000 playground building in
an eastern city know that II the bricks
used In tts construction had been left
lose upon the ground the children
would have played with them more
than they ~ this costly structure. In
another place . $4,000 playground has
been ~ much used ~ another which
cost 10 times % much. Thousands Of
dollars have been wasted because cit
iee have planned their Fairgrounds
without knowledge Of what other mu.
n~lclpalltioo have DONE"
