The Way to a Job.
Dishwashing Gives a Better Start
Than Sitting on a Park Bench.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: / sup
pose we are expected to sympathize with
your correspondent as he continues to
sit on "his favorite park bench" in
Bryant Park after refusing job at
dish washing because the day was one
Of twelve hours; well, for one do not
sympathize with him.
Either dishwashing or any other job
Is better than a park bench. / admit
the hours are too long. though / never
have believed the eight hour day was
ordained by God. but your correspondent
could take It and still keep UP look
out for something better.
It all tends to confirm me in my be-
lief that labor Is ready and willing to
work "at the work it prefers. for the
hours It prefers and for the wages 1t
prefers" but not otherwise. WEARY.

MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK

Our splendid weather, which was
with US for so many weeks, was sud-
denly changed on Saturday night into
solid winter time and as result we
now have many inches of snow.
With this heavy fall of snow many
roofs of buildings IN the Park had to
be cleared in order to prevent the col
lapse of the structures, this especially
being true of the auditoriums, upon
which the snow measured fourteen or
more inches.

in the Park one day the latter part of
the week.

Utterback, with their husbands, left
here on Saturday night for short
visit to Mr. Graef's parents in Con,

free advertising last week which was
passed ON through some of the city
newspapers. 1t is hoped that many of
the friends Of the Park will come and
see about these wonderful things that
were published. The best parts of the
accounts were left out Of the commu-
nication, Ehe man who is removing
the defective timber is a perfectly
sane and reliable and responsible gen
tleman-simply carrying out the re.
quest of the present owners as sug-
gested by the State Forester. And
the grounds generally are under the
care and supervision of the man who
helped to put them in the splendid
shape and kept them so from the ear
Hest history of the Park for ten years
under the careful supervision of the
late J. NJ. Davis. This same man is
putting the grounds in shape again,
which is being highly appreciated by
the friends of the Park. If we were
cutting good timber we certainly
could get good lumber, but we are try.
ing to get out of it enough to pay for
| the removing, but some of it is not
even suitable for fire wood.
