PLAY GROUNDS SOG-
GESTED BY J.B. RUS
SELL FOR CHILDREN
Colonel Russell Offers to Start Fund
For Purchase of Public Play
Grounds With One Thousand
Dollar Contribution

For years It has been known that
Maysville needs and needs badly a
public play ground and athletic field
for the use of the children of the city
and since the matter of erecting a new
school building in the Sixth ward has
been suggested Colonel ]. Barbour
Russell has turned the attention of the
members of the City Board of Educa-
ton to the opportunity of making the
school grounds large enough to fur
nish a public play ground.
AT meeting of the School Board
members and the members of City
Council held few weeks ago Colonel
Russell suggested that the Ball park
property in East Second street be the
proper cite for the proposed new
school building and that part of the
property be turned into a public play
ground and athletic field Mr.. Russell
stated at that melting that he would be
glad to make liberal contribution to-
ward the purchase and equipment of
the property as a play ground.
This morning Colonel Russell, after
investigation, of the probable cost of
the property and its equipment as a
play ground, announced that he would
be one of twenty-five or thirty men to
purchase the property and turn it over
to the city giving part of the prop
'erty to the Board of Education for the
location of school house and the bal
ance to the city as a public play
ground. He states today that he will
start the list with contribution of
one thousand dollars and asks that
other public spirited men join him at
once in making this fund large enough
within the next few weeks to make the
purchase.

MAYOR GIVES KNIGHTS
ROYAL WELCOME To
BEST LITTLE CITY"
Mayor Russell Expresses the Sentl-
ment of the Entire City In His
Address of Welcome to the
knights Of Columbus.

AT the meeting of the Knights of
Columbus in annual convention at the
hall of the local order in Market street
this morning, Mayor Thomas NJ. Rus
sell, gave to the visitors a right royal
welcome to our city and expressed the
sentiment of all citizens in a short ad-
dress which was to the point. In part
the Mayor said:
Mr.. Chairman and Sir knights:
1t is indeed pleasure at any time
to have a body of high class gentle
men come to our city but It is an
especial pleasure for an organization
such as yours to select Maysville as its
place of melting for the transaction of
business.
Acting for the citizenry of the great
est little city in the whole world, |, as
their Chief Executive, extend to each
and every Sir knight most cordial
welcome. 1t gives me unusual pleas
ure to extend to your presiding officer
the. key to our city. Since the days
whom Daniel Boone Simon Kenton and
others drove the Indians back from
these fertile valleys and stately hills
and bulded from hewn oaks shelters
for their families, this city, then
known as Limestone, has been care
fully guarded against intruders. From
the time hpwnvar thot tba Jpd;one
from the Northern forests crossed the
stately Ohio in their canoes and
smoked the pipe of peace with our
forefathers at the mouth of old Lime
stone Creek, Maysville has been known
as hospitable community and those
coming on missions of peace have al
ways found its citizens with open arms
to receive them
say II gives Maysvillians great
pleasure to welcome to our city repre-
sentatives of so great an organization
as the Knights of Columbus. Had your
great order done no more than to have
rendered the service you did to our
mani Cldu yOulHS over lneTe. you
would have won a place in our hearts
forever, but your good work has con-
tinued after the war clouds have been
rolled away and your assisting in this
terrible period of reconstruction de-
serves the heartiest of commentator
from all
You will find, during your stay in
our little city, that ! truly speak the
sentiment of all Maysvillians when |
say you are welcome and we thank you
for this opportunity of doing you
honor. l hope every out-of-town dele
gate will take this opportunity of see
ing Maysville and its environs and at
any time the members of the City ad-
ministration can serve you during
your convention, hope there will be
no hesitancy on the part of your Off
cials in calling on us. 1t will give us
great pleasure to assist in any possible
way in making your visit to Maysville
a pleasant one.

MOVEMENT ON FOOT
TG give MAYSVILLE
A COUNTRY CLUB
Maysyllle Men Are Joining Proposed
Organization for Beautiful Club
House and Grounds just
East of the City.

A movement put on foot a few days
ago to purchase the old Calvert farm
at the Eastern end of the street car
line for County Club, gained much
favor today and some thirty or more
prominent citizens have signed an
agreement to pay a stipulated fund
each year for membership in the club
and an extra assessment this first year
to pay the purchase price of the prop
erty.
While details of the plans are lack
ing at this time, it is known that these
gentlemen have been considering the
establishment of a Maysville Country
Club for several seasons and this year
they have actually taken steps to make
the thing a success in every way. 1t
has always been their purpose to lay
off a golf links on the property and to
so improve the old Calvert homestead
as to make it a very beautiful Club
House. A delightful bathing beach
can also be arranged on the Ohio shore
at the rear of this property and most
delightful club grounds can be plan
ned.
So successful has been the effort OF
those circulating the agreement today
that the proposition is practically as
sured at this time. The details of the
matter will be worked out by a com
mittee composed of Messrs. e. A. Rob-
inson, E. T. Kirk, John c. Everett and
LeWright Browning

PLANS FOR new
SCHOOL HOUSE WILL
Be EDISCUSSEO TODAY
Architect Is Expected Here This AZ
ternOOn To Confer With Property
Committee Of Board of Educa-
tlOn ON New School House.

Members of the Property Committee
of the City Board of Education are ex-
pecting an expert school house arohi-
tect here this afternoon from Indiana
to take up the matter of plans for a
proposed new school building for the
Sixth ward The committee will talk
over the matter with this architect to
get some idea OF the nature of build
ing it will be necessary for them to
plan for and then the matter will be
presented to the entire Board of Edu
cation with an architects estimate.
On this architects estimate the
Board will base their figures in asking
City Council to call for a municipal
bond isue for the financing of the pro-
posed new building. Although the new
building has not been discussed Off
cially by the Board of Education, it
seemed to be the opinion of the ma
jority of the Board members as we'll
as prominent citizens at a recent ban
quet that the Sixth ward building
should be large enough to care for fu-
ture needs. 1t was pointed out that the
Eastern sections of the city was the
growing section and that any new
building should have few extra
rooms above those now required, to
care for any growth.
Considering this expected growth in
that district, it is more than likely that
a six room building will be figured on
instead of a four room structure and
to erect such building it will cost
considerable sum.
