WHY NOT A PLAYGROUND?

HI OR THE past few days. we have
been hearing great deal about
Better Babies, and Thursday and FRI
day an educational institute was held
at the city hall under the auspices of
the Woman's Library Club that has
most certainly been source of great
help and information to local moth
ers. But what will We do for these
Better Babies" as they are growing
up? What are we doing at present
for the growing youngsters, so far as
providing them with proper place to
enjoy proper play?
A playground could be maintained
at slight expense. and such an insti-
tuition should be started this spring.
Other towns no larger than this have
done SO. and We are not overburdened
with cost.
The annual report of the Play
grounds Association Of Conshohocken,
Pa, shows that during the year just
passed 11,45S children visited the
grounds, and that the average daily
attendance was $50. The playground
is supported largely by public SUBJ
scription, though last year an enter
tainment at the Plymouth Club Of
Conshohocken netted nearly $50 for
the playground fund.
Children while on the ground are
under the eyes Of two supervisors.
The ground was open fifty days. and
the greatest number of children at
tending on any one day was S36.
The total expenditure for the year
was only $317.37. and the year ended
with balance OF 500 in the treas
ury. The estimate for operation dur
ing the coming year is placed at 1925.
There is no community that can af-
ford to be without playground when
1t can be had at 80 low a cost. It Is
easy to imagine what such an institu-
tion means to the mothers and fathers
of community. and, indeed. to the !
community as a whole.
How much better 1t is to know that I
children are engaged in healthful and /
clean recreation under competent !,
supervision than to be utterly ignor-
ant Of their whereabouts. How much |
better klamath Falls would be to |
know that all chi1dren ara kont m 4
the streets and away from places
where they would derive no benefit, 4
If they did not suffer detriment.
A playground is positively a good
investment for every community.
The small sum required to support it
should not stand in the way of secur-
ing this modern educational institu-
lion for klamath Falls.

ROCKVILLE AND COUNTY
Reassessing Of Real Property on
I Full Value Basis to Be-
gin August l.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, July S.-The work
of reassessing all real property in this
and the other counties of Maryland will
begin August l. The work will be done
under direction of the state tax COM
mission, and will be in charge of the
supervisors of assessments in the va.
rious counties. The assessors, probably
two for each election district, viii be
appointed by the county commissioners.
1t is thought the work will be in
progress several weeks.
The state tax commission has let it be
understood that all property will be as
sessed at its actual cash value. If this
is adhered to, it will mean tremen
dous increase in the taxable basis of
this county, where, it is admitted, much
property, especially that in the lower
section and farming land throughout
the county, is assessed at not more than
one-fourth of its real worth. The high
er the taxable basis the lower the coun-
ty tax rate. but an increase in the basis
would probably not affect the state tax
rate for the present, at least.
