none above twenty were included in

A PLAYGROUND.

w. II. Bissell firmly believes in
having plenty Of playground for chill
dren and we have no doubt that,
were there more holding the same
views, WauSau would have in the
near future several necessary and de-
sirable Fairgrounds. Last spring Mr..
BiSsell purchased lot directly back
of his residence and people wondered
what it would be used for. Now that
cleaning and leveling of the same
has been completed Mr.. BisSell will
have tle lot converted into a play
ground for his son, Walter, and his
friends. The lot is enclosed by a
board fence, surmounted by lattice
work and all dyed in green. 1t is a
splendid place for games of all kinds.

however, that every voter take pains
TO ascertain whether h.s name is
