This resentment v.-as displayed particularly hy citizens of th Houth side and of the east side. It was f;afd that members of civic cluhs and clti7"n generally in th" Houth side favored the purchase of Hum village wood hut they f.

A representative of the Co(uillard school Parents-Teachers' club was xmewhat scathing in her remarks regarding1 pubdic officials who had failed to provide a suitable huiMin-: for the Poquillard schooi. Slie said that th" feelim? in that section of tli" city was in favor of the purchase of Hum Village woods but that the felt that they themselves should at least have a portable auditorium inasmuch as there was no adequate meeting place for the neighborhood. This Speaker credited the ity official with having clone soniethinu' In Fecurinr patterns . for trafhc sipti.which she said had been promised the residents of the Co-julHard section two years apo. Shf said that there was some hope in the community that 'he srgns mii'ht perhaps be received within 10 years'. After the vote had been taken. Mayor Keller turned the option on ' the property over to the council explaining that action would bo taken foon inasmuch as the option expired within about three weeks. The property in question contains 10?,. 7 acres fronting one-half mile on Kwlm? av., from Kimball st. w.wt to Gertrude st., and running south from Ewinff ft. 1,700 fret. The purchase price Is $4.",0(.0, payable ?!'

property would approximate :'.) cents per capita or 4 1-2 cents a year for each resident of the city during tho time of payment. Opposition to the proposal w;is based mainly the contention that the city should improve the . parks which it had 1'fore puehasiiipr more. The. peneral ('pinion, however, was that It would he economy for the city to purchase the land now -it the price of approximately $4C0 an acre rather thnn to wait until the price would be hlcher. It wa.i pointed out. further, that the timber would probably be cut off the land In the near futrre if it were not protected by the city. Hoard Plans for Future.

Richard Klbel of the park oard ' sun. med up the argument. in favor! of the purchase in a strong appeal ! for the conservation of the beauty! spots in proximity to the ciy. He J said that there had iuu been the im-

provemcnts in the parks of the city that misrht be desired, but he exPlained this by tayir.c: that the neglect had been caused by the lack of

funds nnd also that the plan. of the '

rark necessarily looked to the future and included such results as could not he provided and laid at the feet of the people as soon as mL:ht h desired. There was no need, he suid. for complaint about the co-t of buying Hum village woods inasmuch the city tax rate had been the same for i-everal years with no immediate prospect of an increase. Mayor Keller, he said, was to b, pralsid for hH work in making it possible for the city to secure the at such a reasonable price. Thou who attended the mectim wire largely representatives elected by th various civic . Various communications were read in which it was ur?,ed that the property be purchased. As to what should p.. dune with the land after it should bo purchased. it wa.s i:enerall acreed that the natural beauty of the place Was s.ithcient to make acceptable as a park w:th.ut the addition of extensive chances.

the met-ting as being in favor of making the appointment in time to allow the new man to take up the work about April 1. It was hi opinion that if the new superintendent!

' - - - - m should come hre sometime this year, ho would be le to acquaint himself with the school' system befor the beginning of the next scholastic year. Applicants from small towns will get little consideration, for it was felt that many of the grade school principals are in charge of a many teachers as are in the entire systems of some ef the small cities.

Kducators, who were Interviewed by K. H. Hupel and William Ciom while they were in Detroit at the height of the school controversy here, were discussed. Several ef these in ""particular were given special attention. It is planned to have the school hoard or one or two of its members visit some of the cities frem which applications have come and directly learn the men's ability.
