PLAY TOGETHER
New Recreation Center, TWEEN.
ty-Sixth and ClearfieId Sts.,
Is Opened
FIRST OF KIND IN CITY

Father and son played together at
the new recreation center, Twenty
sixth and Clearfeld streets, which
opened last night under auspicious cir
cumstances. The new playground was
obtained largely through the efforts of
the Fathers Association of the John
Greenleaf Whittier Public School.

made possible by the cooperation Of
the Board of Education. Incidentally,
It is the first playground of its kind in
the city.
AS outlined by Charles NJ. Bradley,
president Of the association, the play
ground is intended to serve three pur-
poses:
To stimulate men of more mature age
! to keep in perfect physical trim by ex =
ercising every night.
To arouse the interest Of the COM
munity in the work of the association.
To promote a closer relation between
father and son by providing them with
n place to play side by side without
any fear of dad losing his dignity.
More than 1900 fathers and their
| cious grounds at the opening. Com
munity singing and dancing for the
older folks were other features of the
| night.
The association has purchased large
site adjoining the present one and is
planning to establish community
recreation center. In the two months
| of it's existence the association has
grown from membership Of sixty six
| to more than 700.

borders with a prohibition permit arc

The orders put in force the ruling
by Attorney General Daughcrty, up
holding an opinion by former Attorney
General Palmer that transhipment OF
liquors from one foreign country to
another by way of this country was in
violation OF the prohibition laws.
There is still some uncertainty as to
the effect of the ruling upon liquor

ships under certain circumstances
however, officials declared, adding that
to clear up these points another opinion
would be asked of Mr.. Daugherty.
