Practically all citie¢ iwith more than 25,000 pop-- ulation have at least one park or playground but many millions of children, especially in the smaller cities, do unot have access to parks or playgrounds and all too frequent ly go into the streets These chil dren should be encovurazsed to play upon vacant lots where possible. They must be kept off the streets. In discussing this problem of child ' safety My, Upham states, "There| are entifely too few, playgrounds and | recreation centers and children-- in | many cities are forced to play in the; streets. Roller,skating on highway | pavements should «Be discouraged,| as well as tobogganing, coasting or | sledding. i "Public school officials, parent-- teacher associations, churches, civic eorganizations and parents, in partic ular, are| urged to promote the es-- tablishment of public apd private playgrounds in cittées and towns, with a view to affording children a greater number of safe places where they can play." "The unwarranted slaughter of children by motor cars and trucks is linked closely with the general prob-- lem of safeguarding pedestrian traf-- fip," stated Charles M. Upham, sec-- retarydl;rector of the auoclat'iou. "Statistiks show that: 7,400 children of school age were killed on the bighways of the United States in 1927, and of these children, 3.628 were killed while at play in the streets. More than twice as many children between the ages of 5 and 10 yearg were killed than of auy other similar period of years, | Washingtou, D.

Ordinarily these eve. ning schools are organized on the' basis of a class one or two evenings each month for a perfod of several weeks: Generally all «subject mat-- ter and information offered in the evening course is relative to one definite farm emterprise as 'dairy orl pooltry, but this may be varted.
