PARK AND PLAY GROUNDS
MOVEMENT is UNDER WAY

A number of representative men
and women met at the Commercial
club rooms last evening to organize
an association which will promote
the idea of a large public park, play
ground and athletic field. H. l..
Humphrey was chosen president and
Rev. Hugh Lomax secretary. Com
mittees were appointed to find out
what other towns have done and to
ascertain what tracts of land might
be available for such park. This
association hopes to eventually work
out the high school athletic prob
lem. Solomon is Just completing a
large building to be used by high
school students for track meets and
practice. Our high school students
belong to the track league but have
no place to practice and cannot
have a track meet held in Abilene.
All who are interested in this work
are urged to be present at the next
meeting, Saturday evening, Oct IL,
Commercial club rooms. At this
time the various committees will
make their reports. The members
of the committees are:
Ladies Literary League, Mrs. ].

WIEET g.TflIEI "a ~ naH QAIG C9NfeI
BY this time several women had
joined the circle. Their faces we're
like the faces of many western wo-
men who live in the country towns,
scanned by the wind and burned by
the sun. How could 1t be otherwise,
when such intensely heated breaths
were driven. day after day, across
the land? They nodded approval OF
their champions words; and II they
had any lurking desire to leave the
high plains, 1t was not expressed.
The marvel Of 1t all is that, de-
spite the climatic conditions, which
sometimes seem almost harder than
they can bear, none of the old-time
talk about 'going back east to the
wife's folks" is heard. Thirty years
ago in that valley a Spectator SOW
ed thousands of acres of wheat in
one great field. Transcontinental
trains were halted so that the pas
sengers might feast their eyes on
the wondrous picture; 1t realized all
their dreams of agricultural splen-
dor. The next year wheat failed,
and a dreary procession Of white
covered wagons took the settlers
eastward. Today in that same val
ley the passengers see from the
trains not only wheat, but corn,
alfalfa, fruit, herds, flocks, and
scores of big red barns and comfort
able houses. The wheat fails some
times; the corn is a disappointment
sometimes-but nobody leaves. 9th
er things make up for the deficiency
and prosperity goes on-not quite
so rapidly, to be sure, but with a
certainty that maintains hope and
good cheer.
The motor car whizzed along the
street out into the open country
again. Here and there were corn
fields ruined by the grasshoppers;
pastures we're brown. But somehow
the prospect had changed. Instead
of seeing these Affections a cause
OF pity, they seemed only minor in
stances in the great scheme of ad-
vancement present over the west.
Back of it all cleaned the optimism
and faith of sturdy, hopeful earn
est men and women who are de-
veloping their communities along
clearly, helpful, worthy ways.

MYSTERY IN TWO

HaIf-Burned Mattress, Wrap
ped Around Large Gasoline
Can, Found in a Closet.

Investigation is today being made
into the origin of two fires in the
boarding house of Mrs c. L. Roundtree.
l04 Luckie street, within Il period of
four hours yesterday afternoon. The
household furnishings were destroyed
and considerable damage was done to
the building. a half burned mattress.
wrapped around q three gallon gasoline
can, found in the Kitchen closet after
the second fire, led Chief w. b, Cum
mings and the police department to be-
lieve the fires We're of incendiary origin.
The first fire occurred at 2:49 o'clock
and started in an upstairs clothes clos
ct. 1t was observed by a student in
the medical college across the street,
who sent in the alarm. When the fire
men arrived on the scene the closet was
mass of flames and before the blaze
was eXtinguished both fire and water
had done considerable damage.
At o'clock the second fire started
in small closet in the kitchen. 1t was
at first thought that this fire was the
result of snoldering sparks, but after
the smoke had cleared away Chief
Cummings discovered the burned mat
tress.
The close proximity of the two fires,
together with the finding of the burned
mattress and the further fact that the
kitchen closet was discovered to be in
the opposite side of the house from
where the first fire originated, led the
iremen and the police to believe that
some one had deliberately started both
fires.
The Woodside renting agency which
has charge of the house, was notified
and is assisting, the police in their in
