CIVIC IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE.

is the betterment of local and social
conditions. ETC., and will be if-but.
we are great on organizing societies
and equally great on dropping them.
Great things are wished for the
Civic Improvement League. At it's
last meeting sumo one proposed the
purchasing and laying out childrens'
play ground, and the lot back of the
old Jail building now used as hitch
ing place 70 horses on public days a
general horse-swapping ground etc =,
was suggested as suitable location
and committee appointed to inter
view the Board of Supervisors as to
purchasing the ground etc. The
question is a play ground needed Tor
the children of the town was of
course discussed. 1t should have been
If it was not. In this small town
surrounded by broad open shaded
fields it is u question whether the
children need additional grounds. If
they do, for goodness sake, they
should not be put down in the lot
back of the Jail. even if the county
should donate it for the purpose Go
out of town somewhere, and get a
plot of ground of larger and more
centrally located for the sections of
the town where the children live. To
clean up the lot suggested, ornament
1T with trees. grass. ETC., would be a
good thing perhaps, but as town
park or playground TOR children, it
seems to us about as poorly suited as
could we'll be imagined. 1t is stand
ing pity and shame that the $50
school children of this town are
forced to use the streets as a recre-
alton ground, it is said. but, after
all, they are doing fairly we'll. Pity
that some better provisions, however,
could not be made. Fairgrounds and
parks should be ample and out of
