 Dollar For Dollar
ENSLEY BUREAU l THE AtlF-HERALD ! EnsleY. Ala. Oct. 3 ]

The drive of the Ensley Park and Fairgrounds association was started Wednesday morning and the commit tees met with instant success in their work of securing financial as- sistance for the parks. The com mittees were composed of members of the Ensley Kiwanis club and Of the Ensley Merchants association.
 It was announced during the aft ernoon that the work would be con- tnued Thursday and that the neces- sary funds would be subscribed dur ing the day. The committees com posed of the leading business men of Ensley went to all the stores that could be reached during the day and it was stated liberal donations were made. The general reception indi- cated that the citizens and residents of Ensley generally were deeply h. terested in the park situation ana interest by liberal subscriptions 10 the funds solicited. It was stated that for every dollar subscribed in Ens- ley there would be given similar amount by the city commissioners Of Birmingham, so that the citizen do- hating S5 is making 1t possible for the parks to secure just twice that sum. This point assisted the com mittees in the work, it Is believed.
 Dr. Herbert A. Harris, president of the Park and Playground associa- tion, general director of the drive, said Wednesday, afternoon he thought the success of the work was assured, stating that the people of Ensley are much displeased with the equip ment in the parks and the lack of facilities for the proper use of the parks.

 The request for funds has already been made in the residential section by the ladies' clubs and many special donations have been made so that committees in charge believe the full amount will be subscribed within the next day or two.

everlasting debt of gratitude to
Messrs. Emiel Buettner, Thos. D..

IN drafting others into the project
from whom they obtained sincere
and able cooperation. 1t must be
a great satisfaction to- those pio-

the Northern Woods, to know
that their efforts were crowned
with a success far beyond even
their hopes.
