Review of Season Port Clinton playground, under Miss Crimson! supervision surpassed all expectations for the first season and entitles Miss Crimson to much credit. The parents showed their ap- preciation by their support in all she undertook. A greater season next year at Port Clinton is confidently expected. Miss Caneie, the director at Sun- set park, is to be congratulated on the success of her work which has been greatly appreciated each year. Sunset park is the largest park and draws from a greater area than the other pllrlda. Plan New Playground Ravinia school playground was for. tunate in having Miss Smith and Min Duly who have recognized ability and many friends in Ravinia.

There will be a new playfield in Ra, vinia next year with all conveniences and equipment. - The children of Lincoln park play- ground failed to respond to the op- portunity offered them. A director was pit in charge of the playground at the opening of the season without. results. This park is an ideal play- field and is provided with a suitable shelter house in which all sanitary conveniences are arranged, It is re- ttrettable that this seeming ittditrer. once should exist as the park'board has dune all possible for the success of the playground. Perhaps another year-will prove different.
