BOARD ORDERS
NEW PARK PLANS
At yesterday's meeting of th" park
hoard the members discussed the pro
posed park system which will be con
structed out of the $1,000,000 to he
raised bv the bond Issue voted upon by
the people last year. Detailed plans
were ordered by the members, and they
will be furnished by Olmsted lirothers
of Host on.
Another departure was taken by the
board yesterday when tic members vot
ed to instruct Citv Auditor Hnrbtir to
furnish the board with a complete state
ment of the department's finances each
month. Heretofore this work has de
volved upon the parkkeeper, but because
of the detail concerning the work of the
parks the board " believes that Park
keeper Mlsehe should be relieved of the
clerical part In Older to give his time
to his reifular duties. Ihe council has
refused to furnish Mlsoho with a clerk
to do the clerical work, and the board
resorted to the new expedient to re
lieve Mische.
j A trai t of land containing eight acres

i was recommended to the hoard for pur
1 chase hv the Sell wood board of trade.
The price H $40,000. and the members
of the board will inspect it Saturday.;

Parkkeeper Mische weio discussed by'
Ihe hoard, but nu action was taken, and
