instructors last evening. The total
number of children who have already
registered at the various playgrounds
i.< 13,336. These figures include five
playgrounds for eleven days at the
Cottage Hill field. The attendance was !
divided as follows:

One full-page is devoted to a work- :
ing- view of the new asphalt plani. I
office buildings, etc. Then Commis

series of photographs Paxton creek

day; the long, curving stretch of the i
city's "front steps," and the dam across i
the Susquehanna at Dock street.

celebration, the delegates will num
ber about 100 and tne firemen nearly
1,200. Add to these figures former
residents, who will make the event
more or less of an "old home week,"
and the thousands of visitors who are
certain to be on hand, and it can be
readily understood what a task Mid
dletown has on its hands to house
and entertain them all. This will be
done, however, by using the exhibition
building at the fair grounds for sleep
ing quarters and the erection of tents
whenever necessary.
