YOUR TOWN

NiE miles of grandstand which edge
Central Park in Manhattan and
Prospect Park in Brooklyn are useful
as we'll as monumental while they
await their burdens of cheering thou
sands who will greet the T7th Division
along its line Of march At frequent
intervals branches of huge trees on
the border of the park stretch out,
making fragrant canopies for patches
of the stand. Each evening as the
springtime dusk darkens into night
pairs of sweethearts detach them
selves from the city's busy midst and
hnd welcome seciusion in the newly
leafed bowers-about fifteen feet from
the cleaning ribbons of Fifth Ave
nue. and Prospect Park West, with
their lncessant streams of traffic. The
aroma of the budding sprgs neutral
ICES the unromantic smell of gaso-
line. Prying eyes are very few be-
cause pedestrians would hardly con-
ceive the grandstand as "lovers
'ane,' and probably wouldn't look if
they did
