Some of the large cities and towns have long possessed public grounds both extensive and beautiful, but the tendency was to re gard them as "nature's parlors" love ly to look upon, but of course not to be used. Tbe first Image called up by tbe word "park" has been that of an array of little signboards bearing tbe cau tion "Keep Oft the Grass." Nowadays, figuratively st least, these little boards are disappearing. Art Is not losing tbe public grounds, but tbe people are gain- I lng them. Tbls began through a be lated realization of the relation of parks to public health. The new movement, not content with letting the people have the parks, is taking parks to tbe ; people. It Is fashioning numerous ! small breathing spaces throughout tbe congested parts of the great cltiee. Tbe I latest phase of the movement Is for , the sake of tbe children. It is one that may be seen at work In vacant lots and i in squalid places, making what no one ! ever heard of until lately playgrounds for the little children of the poor. It Is a curious fact that mental fatigue produces the same result on muscular activity as is produced by alcohol.

Iu this way the counties are compensated for the re duction of taxable, area brought about by the existence of the forests. Before this year the states have re ceived 10 per cent of the gross re ceipts, bot congress voted last Winter to increase tbe amount to 35 per reut.

During the past few years the beat thought of many able men and women has been given to the care of the child when away fnxu home, but more espe cially In providing school gardens end playgrounds. Muuy of these and simi lar movements are under wsy In all parts of our country looking to the amelioration of conditions and sur roundings during the hours of study or recreation. It Is probable that every one is productive of good reaults, and collectively they must be most bene ficial, mure so than we at present may compute. It Is highly probable tbat these public moves are also the quick est, most effective methods of Improv ing home condition, thereby ralatny our standard of life along all lines. A Home Trsde Song.
