Scheme is Simple.

I'm view Of the fact that the park,
as already existing, is so naturally
beautiful in the splendid growth of
trees and fine outlook over the lake,
we have endeavored in working out
the general plan to keep the scheme
just as simple and free from any for
mality as is possible. An informal
drive is shown extending around the
borders of the park, thus opening up
hts beauties to vehicular traffic. Path
r,cOnnections have also been shown
from the entrance and from the con-
nections with the normal school
grounds, widening through the trees
and extending to various points of
interest. We have tried to keep as
few paths as is practical, it being the
idea that the roads can also be util-
lied and in fact a portion of these
could be natural trails through the
woods in all locations where feasible.
Dock Facilities.
1--WE would call your attention to
the fact that in the development of
as it becomes q point of interest to
be advisable to provide dock facili-
ties so that an approach to the park
can be made by persons coming with
canoes, row boats, or even launches.
ION the north shore, where such
a splendid beach is available and the
water is so shallow, we have suggest
ed that provisions be made for bath
ing and if so desired, dressing rooms
can be provided for this purpose.
I'm view Of the sightliness Of the
location of the extreme point of land,
we have chosen this point, in our
SScheme as possibility Of strong de-
Velopment, and using this as a focal
point in the entire scheme. At such
a time as your council might feel
that the expenditure is warranted,
splendid architectural feature could
be worked out at this point, using
a parapet wall to act as protection
and also to serve as an outlook over
the entire lake.
Construct Band Stand.
"A band stand could be constructed
at this point and seats provided to
make provision for the crowds that
would naturally tend to congest at
this point. Such an architectural
development at this location would
not only serve as most interesting
feature in the development of the
bark itself, but would also be most
attractive and serve as a land mark
in it's appearance from the lake. The
space to the west could be utilized
for parking automobiles.
!, 1.-THE central portion Of the, park
is given up to general ecreation and
for picnics and It is our idea that
such playground apparatus as might
be installed from time to time, could
be scattered informally in the woods
and thus prevent any bare play
ground space being necessary

Parks are United.

ID In order that you may see the
Arelation Of the scheme to that of the
ksstudy for the normal school grounds,
we have incorporated both the sur
vey and general plan of the normal
school grounds. In working out the
general scheme we have taken into
consideration the advisability of serv-
ing the individual needs of the city
park, as unit, and yet to combine
and unite the entire scheme with
that of the normal school grounds.
For instance, while one of the drives
extending through the normal school
grounds, unites. and forms a part of
the system of drives in the city park,
q separate entrance is made to the
city park at the assumed terminal of
DOud avenue. We understand that
this point where Doud avenue turns,
has not been definitely determined
