Ownership
In an effort to check youthful care
lessness and depredations in the cit
parks of.'Prookiyn, N. Y., the park
commissioners have hit upon a new
plan. They propose to have each pub
lic school select a plot in the nearest
park. Here the children will be cn-
courngod to plant flowers and a tree
or two, and to care for them and the
immediate surroundings. .
There is Little doubt that some such
plan'will help wherever public proper
ty is in need of protection. The sense
of ownership brings new interest in
any object and a new sense of re
sponsibility in its preservation. The
trouble with most public parks or
