The most effective .presentation
bf~the -play- problem in Btlxabrttr
City that The Advance haH heard
that of Ilalph Holmes before
the Elizabeth City Itotary Club oil
Pinchers' Night.
Possibly one reason why It
?track us so forcibly was because
Ire happened to know that what
Mr. Holmes told us Friday night
that he preached to the teams that
fete coaches he also teachcH by ex
Ample.
The Advance here and now In
vites Mr. Holmes to put his talk
In.fhe form of an article for pub
lltfcUBB llfTBIn ll^<r?|U|ii'L. Hi ?iiy
?Mbrat the altiiKotlinr flranmen
Unr report of It presented In our
Dews columns.
And we are adding another to
kbn needs for Elizabeth City pre
sented In the box at the head of
khls column, namely: The need of
k playground under the supervi
sion of a competent play director
open for 12 months In the
yenr.
Elizabeth City has made souh1
progress In matterH educational
In the last few years, and it Is
time we were realizing that thlu
matter that we have put off Is ev
ery 'bit as Important as that of
adequate school buildings ? (lf not
grnn more so.
Mont of 'Em Ride
! ".Your proposed park Ih too far
from the city. People who need
It part roost are those who are
pot able to ride. The factory op
eratives and other wage earners
kre on tho opposite end of town
from the Old Fair Ground."
| This Is the view of a reader of
Ebla newspaper who subscribe* to
?I the rest of Elizabeth City
^eeds aet forth in the box nt the
lead of this column, and what he
ftys la well taken. If somebody
Irlll find us a good site for, a
tark to the northwest of the city.
We'll be glad to modify our suk
I est Ion accordingly.
| However, would not solution of
Bn supervised playground prob
wm help to meet the situation
MCgeetcd by our reader? Not
byerybody can own even a Ford
