SINGLE COPY 5 CENTS QASTONIA DAILY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF A ! SYSTEMJL CITY PARKS Committees Appointed to Secure Options on Two Blocks of Close-in Property and Liberal Blocks ' of Vacant Property Transformation Into and Playgrounds for dren - Central Park , Center With I. M. C Club House, Library, A committee hu been appointed to secure options on the properties comprising the two blocks between Second avenue and . Fourth avenue, between South and Marietta streets, with a view to the same being pur chased for S-. combined park and playground and community center. The plan is that this 'property, if available, eventually be purchased ' and transformed into a park through a local bond issue. Other committees are now engaged in endeavoring to secure options on properties in East Gastonia and West Gastonia for the same purpose. Helow is given in fifll the report sub- i lnitteil liy Mr. .1. II. Kennedy, of the recently appointed committee on parks' and playgrounds lor the city, and which was given i" I r t at the meeting of the Jfotny ( lub I.-ij-t week. -Mi. Kennedy's report sn.ys: This is a subject which should lie of vital interest to every citizen of (iastonia. at this period of our city 's growth and development. There has liecn much thought and talk given to this matter: from tune to time by some of our people1 who realize the importance of such a jnoveincii.'. About two weeks 'igii at the Country Club a committee from the Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary and the Kiwanis 'lubs r.ci'o entertained at a dinner by a few interested men, tor the purpose of discussing tho subject of parks and play grounds for (iiistonin. About three hours' time was spent in this discussion rind it was the consensus of opinion that we had talked about parks long enough it was now time, for action. The fol lowing iIun was suggested and approved: That wo have, three parks one central park, one for eastern and one for western sections. The ideal location for the central park is the square between jSecmul and Third avenues and (South and Mari etta streets. If this property could be ( secured we would suggest that tin- McCon I nell home be used for a V. W. C. A. or a Woman's Club, th,. Wilson home bo used for a library, moving the City Library from the present. V. M. C. A. building, which could be made into of lii'es, tin- Latham home to be used as a V. M. C. A. or Hoys Club, th-i rest :f tho square being converted into a beau 1 1 f ii I park. This properly is ideally lo cated for all the' ourposes. There could easily be made swimming pools, tennis courts, etc., while the little wooded hill would afford a delightful, shade. I place for children in summe r. This would give us a complete community center for men, women and children. The idea is, of course, that these buildings are for the present only. It is presumed that, as the citv grows larger and ric her, more mod ern and costly buildings will be erected. We understand it is the idea of the school board to erect a temporary build ing on the corner of Sec ond and Marietta for the High School. The architect says that this building can he so constructed that when abandoned by the High School, it can be uses I for a community building. For the eastern section we would sug gest the grove west of the Moclena Mill. We understand the owners of Fairmount Park have offered to donate a section of this park to the city. F'or tlu west, we would suggest the property owned by Uc v. P. W. Bradley. At the dinner already mentioned these committee, acting as a general commit tee appointed three committees with in structions to get options on the proper ties mentioned and any others that they might think desirable and report to the general committee at the call of the chairman. The central committee is as follows: J. White Ware, U. (I. Hankin, M. A. Car pento.'. . The east committee: H. H. Parker. N. Hoyce, .1. 11. Kennedy. The west committee: .1. L. Cray, A. M. Dixon, 1). M. .(ones. , It is our opinion that p should have a number of small neighborhood parks, wcdl located. (Savannah, (ia., has the most beautiful chain of small city parks we have ever seen. We were told that these parks were planned aiol bought by the) city when it was no larger than Ias tonia is now. They aro now prized by the city aw among its most beautiful ami valuable josspsions. "f course Savan nah has, iu addition to these small city parks, large parks outside the c ity. .Some, of U bop' to sec the time when our city can own the beautiful Lin wood property aucl Oowders Mountain for a large park, but just now, Jet's provide the small, park.!. To get this movement going it is im j portaut that we have team work. Co-j operation means success. It is too big .i proposition for one organization to un dertake. Let us all put our shoulders to. the wheel ami let's go." Here are some of the organization to make the thing .go: The ClianiWr of Commerce, " The Rotarv Club. The Kiwanis Club. The Woman's Club, The Community Serviee.

High smith and others. liev. T. II. King gave an interesting account of the re cent commenc em "ict and told of the aims of the college for the future. He is a member of the board of trustees and in tensely devoted to the institution. i Dr. Potcat paid an eloquent tribute1 to the part America had in the recent j I war, tedling iu detail of the part played I I by the college abnuni. He1 made it very! 'clear that America was fighting for nnj idi'al and not alone to save- herself. Then, in a "underfill way he showed how Wake 1 Forest has endeavored always to foster, in the muni and hearts id her students the moral principle which made heroes of those who realized the true cause for which the war was fought by the allies. The devotion to this moral idea, h" said, must be kept alive iu the hearts of all the people if future wars are to be avoid ed . The horrors of war must he kept alive in the hearts ot people'. 1hey must be coustautly reminded of the suffering and privations caused by it ami the must be convinced -t bat there' is a better way of Nettling disputes, a way which avoids war and yet provides a more per maneut settlement of disputes between """"lis. He even after the ei.leut to the ninnent peace showed very clearly enormous loss of life war, there is yet no thai ', in per in f.urope. io avoid tu M"1' wars, to establish world deinocra cy, he urged a clearer moral tone iu the education of all the people. Men must learn a bn'fer and a nobler way of set fling the disputes that arise iu private and nutioiial and international life. Wars decide nothing which might not be settled iu a better way if all the people were truined to higher moral responsi bility. Partisan jioliticK may yet. ilc ffaf the League of Nations and cause tin shameful isolation of the I'nited (states. "We can't stay out, of the League," he j said, "because 1 1 iV League' is necessary I to' world peace and we can't get out of 'the world. If some kind of league is not formed whic h will avert another war like this, then the world war will be -the disappointing thing in history. So th,; us remember the horrors of this war, I its failure thus far to establish peace I imong the Puropeau nations.. Let us , remcinbe r also ils deuiorali.ing influence .throughout the world today. Just niew 'things look dark, we have trii'd war and I it failed to bring ixace. In the moral I'duc-ntion of all the people lies the cles tiny of world peace. Our main business is the moral edui atioil of all the pi o 1 pic." Iu conclusion. Dr. Poteat paid an el i ,ilcnt tribute to the part Wake Forest ; men lire playing in the affairs of Hie state ami nation ami ilescribed the spirit ! of the institution. Recently Hon. Jose I plius Daniels, ex Secretary of it In Navy .said at the college ihat "Wake' Forest ' men are on the right side of things. '' I This spirit of the institution whic h trio ! to teach its students the moral side (if public questions is one of its most i"hii meiielable possessions. CARPENTIER GOES TO WORK IN DEAD EARNEST Surprises His Friends by His Speed and Seriousness Is Developing Foot Work. (By the Associated I'rejss.) MA.NHASSKT. N . V.. May .ll. -Re freshed by his two dav layoff, lienrges Carpentier sailed into work today with a seeel and seriousness that surprised even the easygoing manager. Disc-amps, and took the breath out of some of the sparring partners. Soon after a hearty breakfast (ieor ges has acquired a huge appetite the' 'hallenger took Italian Joe- Cans and Paul Jouruec for a gruelling test over he roads in the large estate across from the camp. Half an hour's play with a soc-ci t foeiball, a bit of wrestling and -hndow boxing, and a rough and tumble frolic- with Journee and (inns, were a few other events on The morning pro gram. Coorgos notiliid the camp to prepare for a ring session in the afternoon, a.s In was eager to do some real work. Wil lie Lewis, one time pos-essor of a wallop ing right, volunteered his services and was anxious to work with Car'iitier immediately. Descamps does not scoff at Demp- 'y 's ability, he is cognizant of the fact that the champion's blows are dangerous. He I does be lieve, however, that Carpentier I will be clever enough to evade the Demp-! 1 sey sledge' hammer and will carry enough i puiiith in his right to provide a robin chorus for the champion. Carpentier is developing his footwork I already remarkable for a heavy weight, 'ami is working quite a bit on the deliv ery of his hardest punches. Tdday the challenger weighed 17.V ! pounds, one-half pound more than when I he started ae-tual training ten days ag. , A fishing party eoniosfd of Judge A. C Jones, Clydt C.
