A park system may be SO compre,

throughout the municipality and
should be SO laid out as to be access
sible by short walks from any sec
ton OF the city, and the benefit as
easements SO graded as to be spread
equitably through the different dis
tricts-all land values will be founa
to be benefited to some degree.
! Experience has proved that a care
fully developed and properly main
tanned park system Is splendidly
remunerative form of investment;
wherever this wohk has peen proper
ly executed and maintained. and that
such work should be considered an
investment and not tax.
There have been many concrete in.
stances where specific park improve
ments have greatly increased the
value of adjacent lands. In Kansas
City, at least, this is an eminently
proper result inasmuch as lands with.
out improvements in this city are
called upon it's land-owning citizens
in the same measure. to pay for prac-
tically its entire park and boulevard
development, The essential value of
such investment has been proven by
the fact that this city is constantly
attracting to itself the well-to-do resi-.
dents of communities near by.
Through this source alone the city
adds greatly to it's population, and es-
pecially that particularly desirable

That the effect of boulevard inn

The figures given in this report, COZ

show the powerful influence which
the establishment OF our bouleyards
has had upon land values. One Ben

strably due to the boulevard, OF ap-
proximately a. per cent. But upon
other boulevards, notably Armour,
Gladstone, Linwood, Gillian Road
and the Passo, the land gain has been
from 200 to 500 per cent, the great
portion Of it being directly attribut-
able to the establishment OF the bou-
levards
In the same manner, but to les
ser degree, our parks have enhanced
values, and the proof is incontestible
that the construction of our park and
boulevard system has been profit
able industry for the taxpayer. More.
over, our parks have also been estab-
lished and administered in the inter
est of the common people; and while
they fulfill the artistic demands OF a
well-planned system of ornamental
ton, they are intended for everyday
use and are serviceable to the every
day citizen and the toiling masses"
To obtain this enhancement in
property values, three important
things should be kept in mind
First-A well studied and compre-
hensive plan by competent land
scape architect.
Second Proceed under this plan on
the theory that certain acres OF lands
Will be benefited. e
Third-Execute the plans with the
greatest attention to detail of con
structiOn.
The necessity of a broad and com
prehensive plan does not admit Of
discussion. since any haphazard selec-
tion OF park lands or boulevards can
not create a harmonious system or
any good ultimate result. Every city
will present its own unique problems.
and since in all cases certain fixed
conditions must be met, a careful
study is necessary in order to har-
monte the old and the new.
The advantage Of acquiring park
lands by special assessment rather
than by bond issue is that by adopt
ing the plan of assessments on bene-
fitted acres, you at once make the
owner Of those lands a partner In

COMBATING ILLUSION WITH FORCE
A Christmas Allegory For Grown-Up
Children-By G. A. TOtten.
Editor BOwma Citizen.

1t was the morning after Christ
mas. A group Of street urchins hud-
died around a garbage can in a back
alley were breathing threats against
Santa Claus for having failed to WIS.,
it. them on Christmas Eve. Into
none of the novels they called home
had the patron saint of little children
entered and a fierce bitterness burn
ed within the bosoms of these neg
lected little denizens of the slums.
This feeling Of hatred was IN no.
wise mitigated when key Goldstein
who had made trip the day before
into the suburbs on the tail end Of
an express wagon, told of the numer-
Gus presents which Santa had brought
to the children in that district and
which had been proudly exhibited for
his benefit. So intense, indeed, was
the spirit of revenge which had taken
possession of them that there and then
they resolved to seek out Santa at all
costs and teach him lesson that he
would not forget as long as he lived.
1t was agreed that they would meet
that afternoon in the same place at
certain hour and would proceed in
body to search out the rendezvous
of Santa. -, r.
Long before the time every little
plotter was on hand, and when the
latest conner arrived on the scene they
started off in a body to search the
neighborhood for some sign of the
recreant Saint, who had ignored
them so cruelty, while at the same
time lavishing toys and goodies up
on children of the suburbs.
Upon every little face was look
of grim determination which to the
passer-by was amusing to behold, and
in every little heart there was bit
terness that bodied i'll for Santa should
he be discovered.
Up one street and down another
marched the little crusaders. Alleys
were searched and every nook and
corner was scrutinized but no trace
of Santa could be found.
Suddenly shout from little "Chim-
mie" Fadden brought all hands to the
rescue, and there upon a bill board
which adorned a vacant lot was the
lifesize and lifelike picture of Santa
himself.
For one brief moment the motley
crew of guttersnipes gazed upon the
face of the arch-traitor and then
with one accord they gathered
handfuls Of snowy slush from the
gutter and plastered the picture until
it resembled futurist painting by
Rouveyre.
Having defaced this representation
Of the recalcitrant gift-giver to their
hearts content, they proceeded with
their search. 1t was growing late
in the afternoon and already the

coveted prizes.
Quickly the little band Of avengers
realized that the chance they had
been seeking all day had arrived at
last, and into everyone of their
hearts there leaped a desire to mete

they beheld the object Of their long
and toilsome search, Santa Claus
himself, reaching down presents from
the Christmas tree and passing them
out to boys and girls in the audi

time. This was not a picture on a
