We have had occasion to inspect | the playground equipment recently ‘ and we feel that a few improveâ€" ments are in order. One of the things we noticed was that the small slide has split quite badly and a goodâ€"sized sliver has been broken from,the platform. We feel that this matter should be looked into by the parties responsible for their upkeep. Another thing we would appreciate is seeing a comâ€" plete set of swings where the gapâ€" ing spaces now stand.

Have we made gains as a group? If you sit where I sit, you must admit and say, "yes." Searching back a couple of years the writing is clear. Reâ€" mem ber landscaping. Oh yes, through the intervention and fight of the group, a further credit grant was awarded. Remember our first effort for the children, our first Christmas tree was a success, the second was better and the third, coming up depends on you and you. We made progress on our annual field days. Each effort worthy of your support and coâ€"operation. Yes, we can keep going ahead and prove to outsiders what we believe in ourselves. Humberlea is the finest, yea Humberlea, But Humberlea is just plain: Humberléa if we don‘t work toâ€" gether as a community team. Yet the little time and energy you will be. called upon to expend in buildâ€" ing our community, you will be reâ€" paid tenfold when you witness the shining eyes and smiles of the chilâ€" dren at Christmas and on any occaâ€" sion we remember them. We aim to do more for our children. We, almost one hundred per cent, signâ€" ed in fawour of purchase of the Park area. ‘Have we a hundred per cent thought of a plan for that valuable piece of property, that we Humberlea hope to call our own. What can we do with it? Should we have a planning board? Let‘s have your idea. Certainly we must make it a place of beauty. We have the talent to plan and beautify, so number one suggestion is Beauty. We need a "Tot Lot" such as tot swings and slides and sand boxes. Then we must have a bigger swing set for growing children. Our skatâ€" ing rink in summer can provide a tennis court and volley ball courts and horseshoe pitching. We need a baseball diamond for our growâ€" ing children and for our adult popâ€" ulation that can still bend. Yet above all this we need a community hall, where we as good citizens, can meet and the place to teach our children hobbies and handicrafts.. When we have our hall we can make sure our coming teenâ€"agers have a place to meet to hold dances and meetings and in that way we will be proud of them and not refer to them as problems. We do nof need a superman and his ideaâ€"just us folks. These are my thoughtsâ€"what are yours? Get behind your community. "Let‘s work and play together, for believe me â€"you are a part of the best community in this great counâ€" try of ours." Become a working part, just think that the few have attained to entertain. I fail to conâ€" jecture what a hundred per cent effort would do for Humberlea. Let‘s make that hundred per cent effort.
