FIEST COUNTY PAEK SYSTEM 



When it is remembered that the public parks of to-day 

 have all had their inception and development within the 

 past fifty years, what is in store for the future and for 

 the coming generations of the rapidly growing population 

 of this countr}^, with the proper care and management of 

 the parks, it is difficult now to predict. 



When the Essex County parks shall provide the greatest 

 beneficent opportunities possible, concurrently with their 

 aesthetical adornment, they will best serve the purpose for 

 which they have been created.
