boy, and was employed in the parks

in voting not to make any land purchas- 
es without a report from their landscape 
architects on the desirability of the 
land and the suitability of the boun- 
daries. 
It remains to adhere to a businesslike 
regularity in the conduct of the work to 
be transacted by the various depart- 
ments. As an aid to that end we urge ; 
first, that the executive officer in consul- 
tation with these heads of departments 
habitually make up and record, for his 
own information and that of the board, 
at least approximate estimates of ex- 
pense of all work in progress and about 
to lie undertaken, to be. devised and 
brought up to date periodically ; sec- 
ond, that no expenditure be authorized 
until the account against which it is 
properly chargeable has been certified by 
the executive officer acting with the ad- 
vice of the subordinate responsible for 
the account ; third, that appointments be 
made only upon the recommendation of 
the e.xecutive officer acting upon the ad- 
A'ice of the department concerned ; 
fourth, that instructions to agents and 
employes of the Commission from the 
board or its executive committee be 
transmitted invariably through the exec- 
utive officer, and all reports, plans, and 
communications be submitted to the 
board through him.
