Moorhead, supervisor of the his annual report to the public commission. In the report Mr. Moore- head states that he believes the sea- son was one of the most successful since the inauguration of work in this city. The new system of hours at the grounds worked out success- y respect. In his resume ysical work at the various grounds, Mr. Moorehead pays a splen- did tribute to John F. Rourke, the director of this work, to whom the bulk of credit is due for the success attained. Comparative figures of at- tendance in 1915 and 1916 show that a gain of 1,781 for the season was noted. The report in full is as follow. The Public Amusement Commission: I beg to present to you the report on the work of the City Playground for the season 1916. I feel that this season has bcen a very successful one. The attendance has been the best in the history of the local movement. This despite the fact that almost all of the older chil- dren have been employed in the fa. tories of the city. The children at- tending the grounds have consequent- ly been much younger than those of preceding years. This fact has helped us very materially in making our work represent the best type of play ac- tivity. Competitive athletics has been limited to one inter-playground meet per week and more time has been devoted to the simpler forms of group activities. Work on the summer playgrounds commenced on the 28th of June. This gave us only five days to prepare for the Fourth of July celebration but de- spite this fact, a very creditable ex- hibition was given. I believe that another year it may be possible to get this work nicely started by work- ing through the various schools of the city before they close for the sum- mer. During the season two sessions were held each day excepting Satur- day, when only one was held. The grounds were open from 9 to 11:30 in the morning and from 1 to 4:45 in the afternoon. The plan of opening at one o'clock instead of two as formerly was very successful, and, I feel, ought to be continued next year. It does not require a director to be on the grounds for:a longer time, and gives the children an hour of free play prior to the opening of the regular supervised activities The grounds were the same a: t vear with the exception of Landers and Walnut Hill park. Mr. Rourke, who had charge of the work at Wal- nut Hill park last year, was given supervision of the athletics of all grounds and his entire time giverd over to this work. Burritt. This ground has had a very successful season. The attend- ance has been very large, ranking second in this respect. High street. I fell that this ground should be eliminated next year. Tt is in a poor location, very noisy and dirty, and the attendance has not been very good. The children of this ground can be well taken care of at either Burritt or Bartlett.

The attendance has been somewhat irregular but the worlk on this ground has been very s factory. Smalley. This ground is not ideal in all respects as there is no shade, but the children are very enthusiastic and this spirit has won for them first place in the final standings of all inter-playsround athletics. The equipment of each ground has been well used and seems to be suf- ficient to meet the needs of each ground. A good supply of small equipment has been purchased this vear and has fully justified the expen- diture. The Industrial Material has been greater than in former years. The placing of this work under the direction of a supervisor has worked out very well and all of the directors are very enthusiastic over the in- creased interest in this phase of ac- tivity. An excellent corps of directors was secured this year and to them is due the credit for the good spirite and high morale of the playgrounds. Leadership in playground work is much the same as leadership in any other activity. ympathy and love for ehildren are absolutely essential to success on the playground. I have found each and every one of the di- rectors giving their best that the sea- son might be the most successful. Athletics. Under the eflicient lead- ership of Mr. Rourke this work has proved very successful. Intra play- ground meets were held once per week on each ground and interplay- | ground activities were held each Tues- day. In August, a large meet was held, all grounds participating. The Smal- ley grounds won first place with 100 points and was awarded a large cham- pionship banner. All games have been freed from rowdyism and other unpleasant features and a fine spirit was evinced at all times. The Folk Pancing, under the super- vision of Miss Reardon, went very well and, in all, about a dozen dances whre taught and used. These ought to be a good basis for next year's work, and a great help in arranging the work to be given July 4th of next year. The final play festival held on Au- amus ph gust 26th, was very successful and ment | the work given w: truly representa- i tive of the work of the season.

Archer Will Present At Opening of Bible Be School For Teachers. Plans have been already made for the opening meeting of the New Brit- aln Training School for Religlous Teachers to be held Tuesday ecvening, October 10, in the chapel of the Cen- ter church. Professor John C. Archer of Yale university is to be the speak- er of the evening. Professor Archer js a graduate of Hiram college (Ohio), is a graduate of the Yale School of Religion, and took graduate work at Yale and Harvard. After his college and graduate training he became a teacher in the public schools of Mis- souri, including the High school of Princeton, Mo. Following that he did some college preparatory tutoring at Toledo, ,O0. His more recent teaching experience was in the Christian col- lege, at Jabalpur, India. Irom this work he was called two v ago to becomo assistant professor mis- sions in Yale. In addition to his varied teaching experience, Professor Archer has liad a great deal of experience in mday school work. For several years he was superintendent of the Central Chr: fan Sunday school in Toledo, Ohio. Toledo is the home of large and suc- cessful Sunday schools, this being the city in which Marion Laurence, the president of the International Sinday school association, was such a succe: ful superintendent. Perhaps Frofessor Archer’'s most conspicuous service in Sunday school flelds was in ihe South Congregational Sunday school of Brockton, Mass., where he s dirac- tor of religious and missionary ecdu- cation. The school has a membership 550 and is well organized in every ¢ay. While there he originated what known as the Brockton plan of onary education. or Archer’'s teaching exper- large experience in religl- ous education, together with the fact that he is an exceedingly Interesting speaker, make him an ideal man to open the second season of the Train- ing school. The esteem in which his ability is held is shown by the fact that he is to be one of the princinal speakers at the Connecticut State Sunday school convention in Hartford in November and was highly recom- meded to the city board of religious education by the state Sunday school - association. of STEELE WILL NOT RUN.

Steele has come out flat footed and announced that he will not be a can- didate for representat In last evening's Herald it was announced that the withdrawal from the race for the place was rumored.
