Willard as district fudge in Minnesota. Two of the judgeship appointments ‘were made personally by the presi- dent, the appointees being his close personal friends for many years. Mr. Grubb of Birmingham was formerly a | resident of Cincinnati, a Yale gradu- ate with high honors in the class of 1883 and 2 roommate of the presi- dent's youngest brother, Horace D. Taft, for four years at the New Haven university. Mr. Willard served for Eeveral years as a justice of the su- preme court of the Philippine islands. Prior to that he was a leading lawyer of Minneapolls. He succeeds Milton D. Purdy, who resigned because he feared the senate would refuse to con- firm his appointment. Mr. Donworth of Seattle assumes the additional judgeship provided by an act of the last congress. He is a former law partner of Senator Piles of Wasbington and had the endorse- ment, it is said, of the entire Wash- ington delegation.

Mayor Magee -of this city, in his invitation to city officials to at- tend the congress themselves and send representatives of the cities, said: “The purpose of the congress and the association is to encourage the provision of adequate playground facilities for children and adults.

Wise of New York, Miss Jane Addams of Chicago, Joseph Lee, president of the Massachusetts Civie league; Representative James Francis Burke, Mayor Magee and Dr. Luther H. Gulick of New York.
