COMMUNICATION July 12, 1943 The Editor, The Times-Advocate, Sir,— “A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever.” I would suggest the town acquire by purchase, gift or expropriation the low lands on the north side of the river between the road bridge and the railroad bridge and make a park of it placing flowering shrubs and ornamental trees (including walnut and butternut for the squir­ rels) with a row of evergreens on the north side, also a couple of stone dams between the bridges for'scenic and irrigation purposes. Later on a couple of fountains could be erected and possibly a band stand and color­ ed electric lights. It would look very pretty and a pleasant place in hot weather.
