A Scene at the Playground
A girls' volley ball game in progress at the Narberth COIllIllU-
nity Playground. This is but olle of the numerous activities which
make the grounds a hh'e of ill/erest through the summer 1Il0llths.
Narberth Playground, One of Finest in Area,
Was Once Rat-Infested, Unsightly Dump
Ten years ago a public dump; today
one of the best equipped, most attrac-
tive and widely used playgrounds in
the Philadelphia area-that is the his-
tory in brief of the Narberth Com-
I.nunity Playground.
One must go back a decade to see
how this metamorphosis came about.
Shorth' after the United States Gov-
.{'rmlle;lt turned back the railroads of
the country to their owners, the Penn-
sylvania foulld itself with several
pieces of real estate on its hands. One
of these was the piece of land in Nar-
berth bounded by the railroad, Wynne-
wood Avenue and Windsor Avenue.
As soon as it was placed on the mar-
ket civic consciousness began to func-
tion with the dual idea of removing an
unsightly nuisance and at the same
time acquire a spacious outdoor com-
munity center.
As the Spectator put it. in describing
how the playground came into being,
in the fifteenth anniversary edition of
"Our Town" two years ago, "it took a
fair share of imagination, of course, to
see' a pretty place rise out of the
wretched dump that was there, a ~eri­
table pest-hole, foul with odors,' fre-
quently 011 fire and swarming with cat-
like rats, but the necessary vision

Bond Issue Pussed
But to shorten the story, a group fll
thoroughly public-spirited citizens got
together and put up the railroad's price
of $22,000 and held the bag until a bond
issue could be approved by the voters.
This was done at the election 011 No-
vember 8, 1921, by a five-to-one vote
though the re.sults of it all were nulli-
fied by a defective ballot. Not dis-
heartened, its protagonists went right
ahead and at a special election in Feb-
ruary, the $30,000 issue was approved
by an even greater majority, 8 to 1.
Thus the ground becallle Borough

Story of Veterinary
Corps Told at Rotary
Dr. Raymon Staley Relates His-
tory of Less Known
Phase of War.
NO DISEASE IN ANIMALS
The inside story of one of the less-
known phases of the World \Var was
learned Tuesday by memhers of the
Bala-Cynwyd-Narherth Rotary Club.
The speaker, Dr. Raymon M. Staley,
discussed the Veterinary Corps of the
United States Army.
Before the outbreak ·of war, he said,
there was ·no veterinary service. The
veterinarians in the army had no rank,
although a few were of a high type.
These, with civilians, formed the
nucleus of the present corps.
"Vhen war was felt to be coming,
Dr. C. J, Marshall, of the University
of Pennsylvania, was selected by the
Government to study the methods of
the allied armies and make recommen-
dations. As a result of a trip to the
scene of conflict, a modification of the
British method was decided on.
Dr. S'taley was a member of the ad-
visory board formed in Washington to
codify veterinary plans for the Army
