We are not usually disposed to I assume the role of prophet, but j we will risk our reputation as such by predicting that the pre sent Moard of Town Commission ers will have no single act of their administration to which they can iook lack iu the future with such pride as the purchase oflaml for park purposes for the children of the future city. Not only has the town been ayed much by the purchase at this time, but the investment is one that will pay such dividends in civic health and happiness as to make the original investment sink in comparison to nothing ness.
