the experts report is turned down by

Reports from some Of the cities
showed that Fairgrounds Lad been eff
fective in reducing street accidents TO
children at play. An example of this
was found last summer at Lewiston,
Maine, where city-wide recreational
activities were shared In by $4,000
persons, mainly children. Not one
death or drowning Of child at plsy
was reported during the summer.
The many other activities reported
by cities included the use of athletic

zed hiking, horseshoe tournaments,

Fairgrounds
Fairgrounds are necessity. Every
community should have a place
where youngsters can go to and find
facilities for good wholesome play.
More than $14,000,000 was spent
for public recreation last year by cit
les in the United States and Canada,
according to the Playground and Re-
creational Association of America,
which has just compiled the returns
from QUESTIONABLE on community
play. This sum is more than twice
the amount spent for the same pur-
pose ten years ago.
In total of $50 cities reporting
community recreation leadership, 600
conduct Fairgrounds and recreation
centers under paid leaders. In 1906,
when Theodore Roosevelt and others
organized the association, only Al
cities had Fairgrounds and recrea-
ton centers with paid leaders.
Approximately 100000 was the
reported daily average of children
and adults at the summer play
grounds of the country in 1928. This
figure is four times greater than the
1913 attendance.
The reason for the steadily in
creasing expenditures for recreation
at time when municipalities are
bent on economy, the association
states, is that Fairgrounds and re-
creations are recognized as good in
vestments. Delinquency and crime
| costs are reduced. Chief of Police
Conlon of Leominster, Mass, says that
delinquency cases in Leominster av-
erage 81 a year prior to the organi-
cation of Community Service, the To-
cal recreation agency. Since its
coming, the number decreased to SO
in 1923.
In Utica, New York, Anna R..
RayIand, chief probation officer,
attributed to the efficiency of play
grounds the fact that not single
child was put on probation during
the month of July in the children's
court. Judge c.. Penny of Miami,
Florida, gave credit to the supervised
play program for the fact that while
previously he had 20 or rs cases of
delinquency in his court month, in
the six months after the Fairgrounds
opened, he had only FIVE cases. To.
