COMMITTEE ON
PARKS TO MEET

There will be a meeting of the COM
mittee on PARKS at the City building
Wednesday evening when it is prob
able that the question as to whether
the city will establish municipal play
grounds this year will be threshed
out ard settled. The meeting is called
for 80 and it is the hope of the may
or and the members of the committee
that every person who is interested in
this matter will be present and that
all who have anything to say regard
ing it will do so. Several sites are I'M
derstood to be under consideration
and the proponents of each will doubt
less be in evidence on Wednesday
night. One of the most prominent is the
gullev between West Winter street
and Gilman street. running along
over the Hayden Brook sewer. This is
at present practically waste land. Dr.
E. P Fish was the first person so far
as known to call attention to the OPP
portunity to make this place one or
the beauty spots Of the city. 1t Will cost
some money but in the opinion OF LIT.
Fish and those who agree with hlm'
if will he we'll worth it. Other places
are also being considered and every
one will have q chance on Wednesday
evening to give their opinions.
