grounds. Designed chiefly for children
they are not used exclusively by them.
Many of them are comparatively in
expensive in cost of construction and
maintenance. Grass is not necessary,
trees are often impossible. But the
children must play, and their play
ground must be easily accessible to
the locality in which their parents re
side. When first opened in Boston,
Mass., and in Providence. R. I. th
playgrounds were on a small scale. In
Providence, for instance, the first Im
petus was given by the ladies of on
of the church organiations. A vacant
lot was secured in one of the outlvine
districts, thickly populated by mill
operations. A fence was built around
it to give the space a degree of seclus
ion. No definate course of nlav. was
at first mapped out That remained for
future development. The ladies looked
over the mental photoeraDhs of their
childhood plays. Great heaps of sand
were piled in the enclosure together
with a generous supply of shovels and
tin pails and flat shingles; swings and
teeter-boards were erected and stilts
and bean bags were added together
with a few cheap carts. Two young
men, one of them an end rush on the
college football team, were hired to
direct the play and to act as referees in
the squabbles which it was anticipated
would arise.
The movement now is established on
a well defined basis. There is no lack
of ready subscriptions.
New York has an elaborate nark"
system but for many years the city
labored under one great disadvantage.
l he parks were too far removed from
the sections where they were most
needed. It needs no array of figures
to convince us that, under the present
wage scale, it is utterly beyond the
means of the average workingman to
take his family of children, usually a
large family, on any long excursion in
search of fresh air. At best these ex
cursions are limited to Sundays. What
a travesty on fresh air excursions is a
miserly few hours, once a week during
the summer months! And in this con
nection it is a most serious problem
which confronts us even here, in this
beautiful city. In considering: the Dro-
posed condemnation of land at Waikiki
for an extension of Kapiolani Park, the
benefit which it is hoped will result to
the workingmen of the down town dis
tricts, with the present method of
transportation, is uncertain.
Many cities of tne Middle West are
contemplating establishing play
grounds for children. I believe St.
Louis has a program already mapped
out to that end. It is worthy ot note
also that the leading journals in Lon
don are uniting their efforts to secure
small parks and playgrounds at more
frequent intervals. They have no un
certain influence upon the health and
the happiness of children, and men and
women as well. They are of the essen
tial amenities in the absence of which
the lines of the face grow deeper, and
the hearts of the poorer classes grow
bitter because of the unfortunate, ac
cidental, inequalities of our civiliza
tion.
Cricket Today. .
There will be some rare sport at the
baseball grounds this afternoon. A lot
of the baseball players have in all like
lihood laid a trap for themselves. They
had the nerve to challenge the crick
eters of the city for a game at the re
gular sport of the wicket devotees. The
match will be on the ball field instead
of at the Recreation grounds. The base
ball players say they want at hand a
fence they can lean against when they
get tired. Game will be called about 3
o'clock.
Gleaner Dolls.
At the request of a large number of
ladies, and for the additional excellent
reason that some goods are yet on
hand, the sale of Gleaner dolls will be
resumed again at Central Union
Church, at 10 o'clock this morning. A
number of the best dolls are left yet
and will be sold at reasonable figures.
All the dressing has been done by
young ladies, in behalf of the treasury
of their charitable society. There was
a very satisfactory sale of the dolls
yesterday.

vvm. .tienry, 01 ivaneonoe, wno may
be considered an authority on roads
and road work, is one of the many men
commending what is being done by they
contractors at the Pali. He says that
not only is good wrork being done, but
that it is being pushed with all possi
ble speed. The job may not be finish
ed by the 20th, but it will not be much
later when it can be opened to traffic.
The bridge or culvert near the spring
is now being built.
Post Office.
The Christmas rush has begun to be
felt at the Post Office and the different
departments are having their hands
full attending to business. The Money
Order Department is running short
handed, and they have put three extra
clerks in the Postal Savings Bank.
Postmaster General Oat started on a
tour of inspection around the Island
yesterday.
Chapel Organ.
The new pipe organ being built for
the Kamehameha chapel by the John
Bergs trom & Sons Organ Manufactur

in January. It will take about two
weeks to set it up in the chapel, and
will be a fine instrument.
