PUBLIC CELEBRATION IN MEMORIAL PARK
mer Republican leader Of the house of
representatives, expressed in behalf Of
Messrs Maurice, Herbert, Robert, Wal
ter and Norman Fox the pleasure
which it afforded the sons Of the late
Mrs. Fannie L. Fox to give to the peo-
pie Of Laporte the park as a memorial
to their mother.
The people of LapOrte have shown
their appreciation Of this beauty spot
in no uncertain manner. Because of
it's rare picturesqueness and it's acces
sibility the park has large patronage.
The city band Of twenty-one pieces
plays in the park on Wednesday even
ings, and band concerts are frequently
held on Sunday afternoons, when hun.
dreds of people visit the grounds, many
making the trip by automobile and
many more walking to the park. The
distance is short, and the walk along
the shore of Clear lake is delightful.
For the comparatively few who do not
wish to walk to the park and who
have no automobiles, bus service at a
nominal charge is provided by local
liveries. The park is also used largely
as picnic ground.
The leading feature of the park is
the great number and variety of the
shrubs and trees.
The twenty-five acres Of the park
are largely Of rolling prairie land, most
suitable for park purposes. The band
stand is in the hollow Of natural am
phitheater. The park grounds present
a beautiful picture on band concert
evening-scores of automobiles parked
along the wide boulevard, hundreds Of
people seated on the grassy slopes
around the band stand, children romp-
ing and playing, rowboats and canoes
crossing and recrossing in the chang
ing Shadows lights everywhere, and
the music the central feature in per-

Giants or the Braves have got going.
The great brand of hurting this
club has been blessed with is the
biggest factor in Moran's success.
Grover Cleveland Alexander, some
times known as Alexander the Great,
has been exhibiting the best brand Of
twirling seen in either league this
season. Always a great pitcher, he
has outdone himself this season.. He
has had few off-days and he has
chalked up many victories.
. Alexander hasn't been the only
winning pitcher, however. Mayer
has been travelling along at clip
only Slightly. slower. Chalmers, turn
ed back by the Giants after the train

good work with the Giants two years
