MOVING PICTURES
 OF PLAY FESTIVAL
Being Shown at 20O9 Third Avenue and Are Attracting Large Crowds.
 Proceeds to Fairgrounds

The motion picture film of the recent play festival and boys and girls athletic meet at the state fairgrounds went on exhibition at 2OOs Third avenue, across from the Traders National bank yester- day and was witnessed by good crowds.
 The proceeds derived from the picture go to the city recreation department and the friends of the playground movement are urging that everyone who can go to see the picture. The picture.-itself Is very good and was the cause of much favorable comment by those who first saw it last night. It shows the won derful organization of boys and girls into playground associations and is a concrete demonstration of the wonderful growth of the movement since it started here two years ago.
 There are over 1000 children in the film. 1t is said. and it is truly imposing spectacle Aside from this many com ments were heard on the artistic phase of the film as there are many scenes of tpe dancing and exercises of genuine artistic merit.
