CHILDREN'S
PLAYGROUND
Appliances For The Little Ones
Now Being Installed In
Virginia Park.
PARKS NOW VERY POPULAR
ChiIdren'S Corner Is On Ninth
Street Front, East
Side.
PARKS NOW VERY POPULAR

A great addition to the usefulnes:
of Virginia Park is being made in
the children's playground. which is
now being erected in the lot left for
that purpose in the southeast corner
of the park. In connection with all
the parks in the larger cities there
are children's Fairgrounds and
they have proven themselves to be Of
great value to the cities where they
are found. For many years now the
people of Hopkinsville have seen the
need of a place where the young
folks may enjoy themselves.
The children's playground lot has
been leveled off and set up with iron
bars from which will hang rings,
swings and trapezes of different
kinds and two teeter ladders. In
the center of the grounds will be a
big slide or Shoot the chutes."
There will be opportunity for both
the larger and smaller boys to exer-
else and play. on the trapezes. A
part will also be fitted up for the
use of the girls.
Since they were built the parks
have been the greatest source Of
pride to the people of the city. Every
afternoon and evening throngs of
strollers may be seen walking
through them and on Sundays the
people crowd the swings and on the
walk by hundreds. 1t is estimated
that during an average day nearly
five hundred people will patronize
the parks.
Both Virginia and Peace parks are
now in beautiful condition. The
favorable season for shrubbery has
been taken advantage of by Custo-
dian Gresham and the sides-of walks
have been transformed into bowers
of blooming flowers. The shade
trees are also we'll kept and inviting.
The children's playground has been
the only thing the parks lacked to
make them complete and the addi-
ton will fill long felt need.
President Chas. f. Jarrett, of the
Park Commission, gives a great deal
of his time to the details of looking
after the park. especially the i'm
provements under way.

RUSSIANS HAVE MADE STAND
Quiet Reigns Along The WeS-
tern Battle Front This
Week.

London, July 14-Tuesday's ses-
sion of parliament was marked by
important announcements.
The chancellor of the exchequer,
Reginald McKenna, announced in
the house of commons that subscrip-
tons to the new war loan had reach
ed the unprecedented figures of
nearly SO. 900, 900, 900, not including
small sums received at the postoftice.
Beyond the German claim that
they have made further progress in
their attacks near Souchez; the
French air raid on the German lines
of communications serving their
front in the woevre, and repulses by
both sides on the usual daily attacks,
little has happened on the western,
front.
In the east operations are entering
new phase, the Russians having.
been successful in their counter Of
fensive against the Austrians in the
region of Krasnik. They have taken
new positions in the hills north of
that town. and apparently are wait
ing for the Austro- Germans to move
1t is not expected that this will be
long delayed, for General Won Mack
sensen has had time to receive REIN
forcem' nts and supplies.
The Balkan situation again is in
the limelight as result of disclo-
sures that the AustrO- Germans have
offered Rumania alternative conces-
sions, either to continue neutral or
join the Germanic allies.
