Mayor Archibald Macdonald stated Thurs afternoon that it was with- out thinking that the observance of Memorial day would be on May 31 this year that he granted permission to prove one of the real lively games of the season, which the local team is using so far for piling up victories, having now won four out of five games.

Mayor Macdonald will arrange, how- ever, so_that there shall be no circus parade during the time that the Mem- orial Day parade is on, and he may decide not to allow the circus to p: rade, but this hasn’t been decided.

A new movement to provide public plavgrounds for the children of the city during the vacation period has been undertaken by a group of the alert and progressive ladies of the city, As yet the plan is in an em- bryo state, but the situation is being looked over, prominent citizens inter- viewed and the prospects investigat- ed. The important proposition, it seems, is to secure suitable grounds. A sec- tion of the High School field is under consideration and suggestions for the use of the federal postoffice site at the corner of Grove and South Main street has also been heard. Another grounds thought of is near the plant of the Manhasset Manufacturing com- pany. Many children of the city have no suitable place to play or only danger- ous places, the streets, for instance, in whiling away the long summer days when they are free from the cares of study. In many places the public playground idea, developed along care- fully laid outlines, has done away with much of the uncertainty as to where children are and what they are doing during the vacation pericds of each summer. It is toward such an end that the ladies interested are to strive. They propose to secure a ground, preferably one where the children at play would not prove a source of dis- turbance to neighborhood residents, and so equip it as to make the place attractive for children and safe for their rompings. A section of the High School field would be preferred i RO he Tettrrud 0 tha town school committee. Supervision 1s uroposed ever the activities of the children at the play- grounds and Miss Edna Chapdelaine will, if the plan is suecessful, be se- cured to have charge. Miss Chapde- laine is a graduate of a well known Boston school of physical culture and is by training and experience, as well as by her acquaintance among the children of the city, eminently fitted to undertake the direction of the pas- times and helpfully train the little people as to how to get the most out of their leisure hours.
