RECREATION WORK
IS NOT EXTENSIVE
PLAN PROPOSED FOR RICHMOND
aoT Equal To WHAT THE Small
Der CITIES DO.
LARGER THAN BEFORE
SIX Or TWELVE CENTERs WILL
RE ESTABLISHED ON CITY LAND
on STREETS RESERVED
FoR THE PURPOSE
.ARCER THAN BEFORE

The proposal for extending the
recreation work in Richmond calls FOR
an appropriation of $1.5a0 for next
year. The question which is oeing
discussed by those who are Interested
IN the movement. in the city Ia WHETHER
this Ia the right sum for the extension
proposed
While the sum Is larger than ever
before suggested for supervision.
caretaking, equipment and supplies,
IT is not large in comparison with the
amount of work to be done. 1T is e&-
pected that under the system OF
supervision proposed from five to
eight times as much work Will be
done-counting hours the grounds are
open and months of the year used
as under the arrangement hitherto.
This means a per capita saving uf at
least one-h half In the cost Of recreation
furnished.
What Other Cftics DO.
Comparing Richmond with other
cities of the same size We find that
this proposed budget Is by no means
too large. In the year ending Novem-
Der /. 1912, Nashville, Tenn, city
somewhat smaller than Richmond,
spent $11.500 on recreation work. OF
this, however. $4,000 was spent on
land and buildings, SO that $4,000
Is the amount which Nashville. Tenn,
spent on the same items covered by
the proposed Appropriation OF $1,000
in Richmond.
Chattanooga, city OF 44,60<
~pulation, spent last year s104,2s0
public recreation work: 500, 400 OF
ais was on land and buildings. show
ing that the amount spent on super
vision. equipment and supplies was
| about $4,000.
| Memphis Tenn. a city Of practically
| the same size as Richmond, last year
| conducted two recreation centers at
a total expenditure of a little over
$4,000 for each center.
What Richmond VIII DO.
| Whether the scheme proposed by
| the plan now before the city council
! there are to be SIX TO twelve centers,
| depending on whether - are run
merely during the summer months or
all the year round, At the rate OF
the expenditure in Memphis, Tenn,
II would cost over $4,000 to do the
work which liz proposed with the
$500 here in Richmond, so 1t does
not seem that the proposed appro-
priation for Richmond Is at all ex-
travagant, considering the amount OF
work which is to be attempted. Macon.
| Ga, a city of less than one-third the
size of Richmond, containing q popu-
luton of 10000. but with a white
population OF only little over 10000,
spent last year S3,720 on its recreation
work OF which $2.6s0 was spent on
salaries. and little over $f.00v on
equipment and supplies.
The figures could be multiplied for
other cities in different parts OF the
. country, but these will make clear tAat
these who are backing the proposal
for an Appropriation OF s7,50c for
supervision, caretaking, equipment
and supplies, to be used on grounds
already owned by the city or on re-
served streets, have carefully thought
out the plan and have developed a
method whereby the city can get the
largest noss'h'e return for the amoun'
of money invested.

ATLANTA FACTORY
SELLS $4,000 PAIRS
OF OVERALLS TOU.S.

Twenty-siX thousand pairs of over
alls are being shipped from Atlanta by
the Nunnally & McCrea Co. 70 Panama
this being the largest shipment of the
kind ever made in the United States to
fill one order
The Atlanta spirit shown by this live
concern is a surprise to the trade in
general and to Atlantans in particu-
lar
When bids were asked by the United
States government for overalls for the
laborers on the Panama canal the At
lanta concern decided to enter the COM
petition. When MI McCrea lined up
with the other manufacturers it was
considered by some a joke. He submit
ted bid on the specifications fur
nished; also bids on specifications of
his own; a careful investigation was
made by the United States experts and
Mr.. McCreas bid was accepted. The
material was the same as submitted by
the others, but the workmanship was so
much better that he Won the contract,
and their goods have given such salts
faction that their make has been adopt
ed as the standard by the United States
government,
In competition with Nunnally & Nc
Crea were dozen factories covering
territory from Chicago to Boston, and
it was stated by those in competition
that the Southern concern could not
fill the orders. as they were not pre-
pared to meet the demands. This has
proven incorrect, as there has never
been any delay, nor has the Atlanta
factory ever had returned to 1t sin
gle garment.

two Toms, and not get EN- mixed.
Those who feel so inclined will vote
for Thomas S. Fielder in the August

AriZOnans at Baltimore Want to Know What to Do About Voting for

N. Y. VOTE HARMFUL

Dr. Francis F.. Shine. member of the Arizona delegation at the Bal timore convention, last night wired to Chairman Henderson, of the coun. " democratic central committee, and 10 a number of other democrats prom!- nent in the councils Of the party, ask ing for instructions in case 1t was ap- parent that the delegation was fol- lowing lost cause in continuing it's support of Champ Clark.
 The telegram said that the cause Oi Clark had been prejudiced by the per sistency Of the New York delegation in voting for him. The delegate did not say so in that many words, but reading between the lines, it may be assumed that the delegate thought a break in the Clark phalanX was imminent
 Chairman Henderson wired back immediately that he was pOwerless to give any instructions contrary tO the instructions given by the people in the primary, which was for Champ Clark as first choice and Woodrow Wilson as second choice. It is believed that this will serve as a sufficient warrant to give the Arizona delegation the mobility needed during the last hours of the convention.
 1t is assumed that the other mem bers of the Arizona delegation have also asked for instructions from par ty leaders in their constituencies.

The pageant vanished up the gorge called Tombstone canyon, and after few minutes returned and entered the portals of Pythian castle.
 What the later hours of the even ing held in store for the tyros Is not known on this. the near side of Iem Zem. but shadows on the white faces of the tyros as they were marched before the alien eyes of the curious crowd reflected the tor lures of the chamber of horrors through which all tyros seeking Zem Zem pass.
 The population of the desert of Arizona was increased by sixty-seyen by the initiation last night, the tyros coming from Tombstone. Douglas, Cananea and Lowell.

When the brilliant pageant of the Dramatic Order of the Knights of KhOrassan emerged from the secret haunts Of Pythiau castle last night and flashed upon the vision Of the crowds Of people who, in gala attire, fTinged the streets like beds of yari. cOlOred flowers, all men knew by these presents that in the Ultima Thule Of Pythisnism there were al. mighty dOlngs.
 To the thousands of people who witnessed the Spectacle it was as if some troop from the pages of the Arabian Knights had stepped forth on the stage Of modern times 10 march on the plane of public view and then to sink back into the mys- came. through 5he portals of Pythian castle. There the curtains were irawn, and there the sixty-seven white-faced. wide-eyed tyrOs left all hope behind. What tOrtures the night held fer them. to what heights the inspiration of the mystic ritual took them, is written on the parchment of Khoras san. on the sands beside Zem Zem's cooling waters and on the hearts of the little brothers Of the Dramatic Order of the Knights oi Khorassan.
 Several thousand people were On the streets. sidewalks, in the windows of buildings and on the porches of the Copper Queen library at eight o'clock last night, the time announced for the appearance Of the Khoras- san pageant, and they waited patient ly until half an hour laten when the light Of red fire. casting weird shad- ows on the walls O. buildings. an nOuneed the departure of the parade from the castle.
