Here the need for men and delay in getting materials as fast as they were needed held back the work for weeks but it will soon be finished. Many loads of cinder and crushed stone have been used to make tljis permanent pathway along the edge of the river slope looking out over the broad stretch of the Susquehanna. Each summer during heavy rains the path was damaged by the wash of the water but now it has been constructed with a small angle toward the street level so that the water can drain quickly. Park Commissioner E „Z. Gross has issued warnings to owners of automobiles who are storing them during the day in the park at Front and Paxton streets and damaging the lawn. At Wildwood park Assistant Su perintendent of Parks V. Grant Forrer has men engaged in clearing the winding paths through the woods and in keeping the roadway in repair. Recently it was neces sary to clean the pipes to one of the springs in the park which furn ishes water for -the large picnic sxounds. Other road repair work and training of -hushes and trees will require several weeks to com plete. Much favorable comment has been heard at Reservoir park where tile golf links are bieng kept in the best of condition at all times. Two large triple mowers are used to keep 'the grass short and players are hav ing littl trouble in finding balls after long drives. The tennis courts also are constantly in use.
