With that $4400 land was purchased for War Memorial Park. Three problems had been solved by one idea: a mem- orial for soldiers was created, a playground was establish- ed for children, speeding through Marietta was stopp- ed. The idea for War Mem- orial Park is a good example of the genius of Dr. John Brown - an unusual combin- ation of technical and scien- tific skill, business sagacity, and humanitarianism. John Parker (Continued from page 1) Donegal School District, in- cluding Marietta. The first reaction of John Parker to receiving this ad- ditional revenue was as al- ways - to give back to the citizens any surplus. This was done by the Council, which voted to re- duce the property tax in Marietta by three mills. There aren’t many gov- ernments these days that are reducing the taxes of their citizens. But that is an example of what John L. Parker, Jr. means when he says a pub- lic official should do what is good for the citizens.

Twenty-five people at- tended the last meeting on February 3, and many vol- unteered for the various jobs that had to be done.
