Improvements and Additions.

The park commission of Cincinnati has engaged George E. 
Kessler, of Kansas City, Mo., to plan a comprehensive sys- 
tem of parks for that city. The city council recently appro- 
priated $15,000 for the work. Concerning the possibilities 
of the city, Mr. Kessler says ; “This city is peculiarly adapt- 
ed by nature for a glorious accomplishment in park design- 
ing. Its precipitious hills and its general topography is 
tinged with the picturesque and capable of very happy treat- 
ment. I believe in the connected park system. The mod- 
ern park idea is that of the long parkway, connecting many 
spots of varying broad extent. Philadephia, Boston, Chicago, 
Kansas City, St. Paul and New York are all following that 
plan in the development of their parks.”

rence River.
