mission of the City Council and men,

together so that some of the school
yards may be utilized by the Play
ground Commission for the use of,
the children of the neighborhood.
Il hope to see in the near future
such relations established betweens
the Playground Commission and the,
public schools as will eventuate in an
extension of this kind of privilege for
the children of our city.
1t is true that there are not sufi-,

is not a single playground, and that
is terrible state of affairs.

Blame the police. A force Of men
such as we have in Chicago will have
to be your starting point if you are
going to get square deal for the
boys who want to exercise their
natural right to play.
1t will be said we are bitter, that
our judgment of the police is not gen.

may be proven by anybody who cares
to make the investigation that there
are thugs, ex-convicts and deadbeats
who are members of the police force
The little fellows know that the big
fellows graft, and they try to beat

The ruthless use of clubs, the
coarse language and the violent con-
duct we have seen, even among Off

before you can get square deal for
the boys in the streets we will have
to make some kind Of a change in
