"You ail revall the action taken at OUI. November meeting two 'years ag> when we voted to recommiend to thiq Village ,oard that the land, (oinpiing Maho- ,,3e farm, whieh the late Miss Mary .inahoney had reeently willed to Kenil- worth, be developed as a wlld fiower preserve and bird sanctuary and that a eonimittee be forrned representing the school and various civie groups In the village, the idea *being to obtain the interest and cooperation of ail residents of Kenilworth in developing this park. 1Commlttee Puîshes Project "The Village board aecepted our rec- ommendation with enthu.siasnii and the committee was formed with the follow- ing representatives: Mrs. A. R. Hodge, Kenilworth Home and Garden club, Mrs. Rufus Stolp, Kenilworth Garden club; Mrs. Clyde Ross, the Neighbors of Kenilworth; Mrs. Leon T. Ellis, the Hli!z- torical soiety; Ward Starrett, the Ken- ilworth club; Supt. E. L. Nygaard, the Joseph Sears sehool. "This committee early realized the need of a definite, well laid out plan for the park and to this end the servieq of Jens Jensen, noted naturalist and1 land- scape architect, were engaged. Thc plant was scarcely completed when the oppar- tunity to obtain free labor frorn the ranks of the unemployed, through the ~W)rk 'Relief division of the Illincis Emergency Relief commission, made Jf Possible to clear the land, and, when In the faîl of 1933. C. W. A. was created, the Village was in an unusually fine position to take advantage of the governrnent's offer to supply aIl the labor free andi approximately one-haîf of the cost of the material to complete the project. Baise Funds Qulckly "The keen interest. of aIl Kenilworth In the project was evidenced in the speedy raising, by the varions groups repre- sented on the committee, and by the Vil- lage and Park boards, of the necessa funds to pay for Kenilworth's haîf of the cost of the material needed, and aIl last winter and early epring the work went forward. When, in the late spring, C. W. A. was discontlnued, nimen from the relief rolîs were again assigned to the work and practically ahl the planting was done by these men. "The park now boasts an adequate watering system, a stout fence enclos- Ing the entire park, three stone benches and three stone study circles for classroom purposes, a fine stone oven, tan bark paths, and a plentiful planting of trees and shrubs. "Gifts from Individuals are gradually adding the finishing touches to the park, and the beanltiful pool, given by our for- mer president, Mrs. Arthur Lindsley, has added much to the beàuty of the pre- ser-ve and wlll be a great asset ln attract- ing the bîrds., A martin house, givenby Our member, Mrs. Frank Nason, was occupied at- once. by a famnily of house martins and plans are soon to be Out- lned whereby systematlc.feedlng of the birds wlll continue the year around.
