Gargoyles of Notre Dame.
The gargoyles of Notre Dame arc
commonly associated with the uiedie
vnl spirit and queer obsessions of old
I'aris. As a matter of fact, most of
them were executed under the direction
of Viollet le Due when the cathedral
was restored, no earlier than the mid
dle of last ceutury. Mr. Henry nems,
who is an authority on architectural
subjects, declares that most of the gar
goyles carved for Notre Dame at the
time ef the restoration were done by
an Englishman named Frampton.

VILLAGE PLAYGROUNDS
A MODERN NEED.
They May Bo Brought About by Intelli
gent and Efficient Planning.
A contributor to tlie Philadelphia
Public Ledger deplores the lack of
playgrounds In our small towns nnd
villages and gives the following sug
gestions for starting n movement to
secure such a playground !n a small
community:
How shall the work be started?
Convince a few just persons of the
Importance of the work. Then nsk
the neighbors to come together. Let
the trysting place be on a neutral
grouud, where local Jealousies cannot
creep la. Try first to convince your
citizens as individuals before they
meet as a committee. Always ask the
opinion of those whose opposition you
fear. Remember Benjamin Franklin's
advice, "Never try to convince by ar
gument, but invite them to help, and
they will rarely fail you." The com
mittee should pass a resolution In fa
vor of the plan and recommending
their action to the municipal authori
ties. L>o not write to them, but let the
prime mover of the scheme, with all
the inllnentlal citizens, go directly to
the village fathers and in loud, clear
tones say, "We must have a play
grouud for our town!"'
I»o not ask for Just a ball ground.
This is good, but not good enough.
You want not only a He'd for big boys,
but also a playground for your chil
dren, both girls and boys, and a little
park, a pleasant place with trees and
seats, where tired mothers with their
babies and the old grandparents can
sit and rest while they watch their
children play, a shelter In case of
showers nnd where the village band
can give its concerts. There should
be apparatus, such as swings and giant
strides, a seesaw and quoits and. above
all, a teacher or superintendent, as no
playground succeeds without supervi
sion.
To acquire this money Is needed. If
possible secure a nucleus, a gift from
some well to do citizen, but do not de
pend upon It. Ask all those of moder
ate means to help, and, nb<>ve all. do
not forget to ask the aid of the poor
nnd humble, as they nre the most gen
erous of all. Last, the town or village
authorities must give to the fund. A
very good way is to start a playground
on a small scale as proof to the skep
tics that y»u nre right. The methods
of raising money vary, according to
the locality. Subscriptions, public
school entertainments, flower days,
fairs—every means can he used. Ite
member. If fnith will remove moun
tains it will i: N.) move politicians. All
this work can be done nnd has been
done In the township of Lower Merlon.
Montgomery county. I'a.. where the
writer of this, with the help of many,
both high and low. lias seen her dreams
more than realized, as soon five parks
nnd playgrounds will enrich her town
ship. It only takes "a little leaven to
leaven the whole."
A Farewell to
the Mountains
By DONALD CHANCIRL'N
Jerry Wbitoonih. -a y<>u:ig American,
bad n hobby -mountain climbing. On
several su< lossive summers In- weut to
soiuo one or lite principal mountain re
gions of Iho world :ind sealed a peak.
But bis favorite location was Switzer
land. Indeed, tbat is tbe favorite moun
tain country of most persons. Whether
or not it Is finer than tbe others is a
question, but there is one thing about
it that gives it superior attraction. It
is in the heart of Europe and in the
line of tourists.
Whitcomb had a favorite guide who
lived at Scheidegg, a point from which
climbers have been long used *o start
to ascend the Jungfrau. This was
before a railroad was projected to car
ry tourists to the top of the mountain,
and Sehmitt the guide referred to, had
a chalet not far above Scheidegg.
One day when Whitcomb had passed
the crest of middle age he appeared at
Scheidegg and found his old guide
smoking his pit>e in front of bis chalet
"My old friend," said the American,
"I have coine for a last climb. I will
soon be old and not able to make these
ascents. I wish you to pilot me once
more."
"Ah, herr," replied the guide, "don't
talk that way. 1 am several years old
er than you. and yet 1 must go on
climbing, else 1 and my family will
starve."
There was a sadness in this reply
that made Whitcomb sorry for what he
had said. "Ah, well, Sehmitt, you
I have been used to climbing all your
life. You will t-lwavs ho »««»••«
