Marshland Muck
Transformed Into
Kids Playground

COLON, Mich.-Along with oper-
ating his dairy, Lyman Decker has
found time to develop another pro-
ject on his property, benefitting
not only his own children but all
the kids in that part of town. He
has transformed the greater part
of his property back of the build
ings, which was marshland muck,
into fine playground. 1t has taken
several years of labor and filling
but well worth the effort, and shows
what can be done with wasteland.
The transformed playground is
several rods wide and of good
depth, running back to spring
fed creek, making a good back
ground. To give an idea of its inn
mensity, there is ample room for q
ball diamond. which is used for
baseball, softball or football -
which ever is in season. Also ans
other section for playground equips
ment-swings, teeters, bars, eto.
Then you find several picnic
tables, convenient for anyone who
desires their use. and along side
the green grounds is bit of me-
nagerie-a pair of fox, two pairs
of coon-interesting to the grown
ups as well as the youngsters.
The transformed marshland
makes safe and ideal place for
an unlimited number of children
to congregate for hours at a timss
away from traffic.

Pennsylvania Town
Tackles Touqh Job

CANTON, Pa.-Under the leader
ship of the Canton Borough Au-
thority (water service), plans are
now progressing for the complete
numbering of every property in the
borough.
The cooperation of the Canton
Borough Council seems assured,
thus paving the way to make the
project legal. The plan has the
backing of the post office, public
utilities, and local firms.
Attempts have been made sew
eral times to have the town num-
bered but each time the task SEEM
ed too great and the project would
fall by the wayside.
At the present time, Floyd d.
Taylor, a member of the authori-
ty, has mapped the town and has
the task two thirds completed for
assigning numbers to each prop
erty. ..
It is the plan of the authority to
have numbers purchased and as
each resident is notified to have
the numerals placed on the house.
In order to make this program
fully effective it will be necessary
to have an ordinance passed by
the council and published.
The numbering project will come
rs good news to all residents of
Canton as well as to strangers
coming to town. At the present
time there has been no rhyme,
reason or sequence to the number
Ing. If person didn't like his num-
ber he could buy any number and
place on his building.

NOISY CELEBRATION
Harrnonica'
Home Town Is
500 Years Old
NOISY CELEBRATION

TROSSINGEN, Germany = The
harmonica, usually associated with
the ear-assaulting first musical at
temps of children was an honored
instrument recently as this south
German town celebrated its 500th
anniversary.
The honor comes naturally, be-
cause Trossingen, in the French
zone province of Wurttemberg-
Hohenzollern, owes much to the
harmonica. One of the worlds
largest and best known makers of
mouth organs is located there, and
the factory provides much of the
towns employment.
The harmonica, or, more cor
rectly the mouth harmonica, is
much younger than Trossingen it.
self. 1t was invented by Friedrich
Buschmann in Berlin in 1921 and
employs an originally oriental sys-
tenn of producing music by pass
ing air over free" reeds-vibrat-
ing metal reeds that fit exactly the
wind aperture.
Some IA Feet Long
There were oriental mouth or.
gans long before Buschmann pro-
duced his "Mundharmonika." The
Chinese and Japanese models were
made with gourd, or gourd
shaped piece of carved wood, as
an air reservoir. 13 or more slender
canes were inserted into this wind
chest, each cane producing a note
form a different free reed. Some
Chinese mouth organs use bamboo
pipes, or canes, IA feet long.
While all oriental mouth organs
can be carried by one man, they
can scarcely be slipped into the
pocket, as can the German and
American models. These vary from
small toys capable of playing in
only one key to large, chromatic
harmonicas capable Of varying
keys.
Two Harmonicas
Musical dictionaries differenti-
ate between the mouth harmonica
and the harmonica. Technically the
instrument generally known as a
harmonica is a mouth harmonica,
or mouth organ.
The other harmonica is an in
strument invented by Benjamin
Franklin and in no way resembles
mouth organ. The Franklin in
strument possessed such musical
merit that distinguished composers
wrote tunes specifically for 1t.
