New York City, May :, l926-Last Saturday morning and afternoon from downtown and uptown and East Side and West Side. hundreds, in fact, thousands of children poured into that benighted area known as Central Park for the annual May Day festivi- ties. And for all the criticisms of the Park that are made by visitors and New Workers alike, that wide open space served the eity's children as it has these many years past or course, the trees of the Park are dy- ing. the slopes of the hills are fre- duently covered with the litter of trash left by visitors. But the Park survives and still provides a worn out beauty spot in the city's midst. Up near the Metropolitan Museum the Japanese cherry trees are in full bloom and down near the Seventh Avenue entrance there is a great wide bed of jonquils. At twilight the high skyline to the east and the west fram- es picture of light and shadow that makes the most calleus visitor have q thrill and a sensation of beauty that Central Park uniquely provides.

A Night Sailing

Last week we told of the thrill that comes from seeing one of the great liners sailing from port for Europe That was a day sailing. Last week we went down To see the Paris" off bearing crowded cabin list for Europe. There was another thrill The great pier of the French line was crowded with passengers and visi- tors. all lighted by great incandescent lights and many of them. to use q slang phrase, exhilerated by flares of alcoholic fueling. But there was something different about this night sailing of a huge liner gliding out to sea in the depth of the night. Aboard the ship there was much excitement, many dinner parties in the restaurant. many nntables Co be seen in the crowd There was Raymond Hitch cock, the center of crowd of fellow actors Roland Hayes. the really emi- nent negro tenor, was sailing for a foreign concert tour. 4 well-known millionaire was surrounded by report CTS and secretaries. Ladies of the stage and prlma donnas of the opera were swathed in furs and laden with orchids French was being spoken on every side and there was delight ful GaIlic atmosphere about it all Then came the cry "All ashore that's Going Ashore" and at eleven o'clock the Paris" slid out of her pier and down the harbor to the sea.
