Make Public Skating Pond on

Good Place.

OF MUCH DANGER.

With the coming of cold weather the
idea of flooding the hollow just south
of Garfield park for a skating pond is
being agitated. This is something in
the nature of protective measure. Near
" every winter accidents, more or less
serious, followed by illness more or
less severe, result from unexpected i'm
mersions in Soldier creek when some
skater breaks through the ice. Not to
mention OF course, the frequent broken
promises as not to go on the creek.
and the seances in the woOdshed which
follow the discovery of the B. P
However, If the place mentioned were
made into a public skating pond, much
of this danger would be averted. The
water in the pond would not be over
two feet deep, at the deepest. 1t would
also likely be frozen solid its entire eX-
tent.
It is thought that with city water
piped to Garfield park adjacent on the
north il would cost very little il any
thing to furnish the water. The field
would give ample room for hundreds to
enjoy skating.
The ground amply accommodated the
street fair held there last spring 1t IS
of easy access to the North side peO-
pie and the street railway running by
it brings it close to Topeka people in
general.
While at present nothing definite has
been done about the matter. it is pos
sible that the Civic club may take UP
the idea do what is necessary to make
the land an ideal skating place.
About 200 people saw the football

The game was characterized by excep-
