Twenty fourth annual report of the 

 Board of Park Commissioners of the 

 City of Minneapolis. This report 

 comes with compliments of Superin- 

 tendent Theodore Wirth and is a gem 

 in its typographical work and illustra- 

 tion. It is e.vceedingly interesting and 

 full of instructive suggestion for those 

 intiusted with the care of public res- 

 ervations as might naturally be ex- 

 pected in anything from the pen of 

 Mr. Wirth who is recognized as one of 

 the foremost exponents of practical 

 park work as applied to the public 

 needs of today. The extensive work 

 being done in the construction of a 

 noble system of parks for Minneapolis 

 is well displayed in a number of de- 

 tail maps and diagrams.
