DEPARTMENT   OF    PARKS, 


COMMISSIONERS'    REPORT. 


Hon.  John  F.  Fitzgerald, 

Mayor  of  the   City  of  Boston: 

Sir,  —  The  Board  has  the  honor  herewith  to  submit  this 
report  for  the  year  ending  January  31,  1906. 

The  only  construction  work  of  importance  done  by  the 
department  during  the  past  year,  for  which  special  appro- 
priations were  provided,  has  been  the  improvement  of  several 
of  our  playgrounds.  The  principal  work  was  done  at  the 
Marcella-street,  Randolph-street,  and  Columbus-avenue  play- 
grounds, which  have  been  graded  and  fenced,  and  shelter  and 
sanitary  buildings  constructed.  A  small  addition  was  made 
to  Marcella-street  playground  by  taking  land,  reserved,  in 
the  first  instance,  for  a  street,  which  was  afterwards  found  to 
be  unnecessary.  The  removal  of  the  buildings  formerly  on 
the  land,  and  the  building  of  a  retaining-wall,  now  in  progress 
and  which  will  permit  of  filling  out  to  the  new  line,  will 
make  a  large  addition  to  the  area  of  this  playground.  The 
new  locker  and  sanitary  building  adds  much  to  the  usefulness 
of  this  playground. 

Commonwealth  playground,  located  on  the  filled  land 
belonging  to  the  Commonwealth  at  South  Boston,  has  been 
put  in  charge  of  the  Board  by  the  City  Council,  and  we  have 
built  there  a  small  sanitary  building  and  put  the  playground 
in   good   condition   for   use.     The    uncertain    tenure    under 


which  the  City  has  this  playground  prevents  the  Board  from 
considering  further  construction  work  here. 

The  part  of  Columbia  road  remaining  unfinished  east  of 
the  bridge  over  the  Old  Colony  Railroad  has  been  practically 
completed.  This  is  the  last  of  the  work  which  the  Street 
Department  was  authorized  to  do  under  the  Parkway  Act  of 
1897.  The  opening  of  this  road  throughout  its  entire  length 
from  Franklin  Park  to  Marine  Park  adds  a  little  more  than 
four  miles  to  the  parkways  now  under  control  of  the  Board, 
and  unites  the  urban  and  Marine  Park  systems,  making  a 
continuous  park  drive  of  about  twelve  miles. 

The  retention  of  Fort  Independence  by  the  United  States 
Government  still  postpones  provision  for  proper  shelter  and 
conveniences  for  the  public  on  Castle  Island.  This  delay 
in  turning  over  the  fort  to  this  department  has  been  due  to 
the  storage  in  the  fort  of  submarine  mining  property,  which 
is  awaiting  accommodations  'to  be  provided  elsewhere.  We 
are  constantly  urging  the  War  Department  to  remove  this 
property  so  that  the  control  of  these  buildings  shall  pass  to 
our  hands,  as  was  contemplated  by  the  resolve  of  Congress 
placing  the  island  under  the  control  of  the  City  as  part  of  its 
park  system. 

The  Street  Department,  under  authority  of  the  Charles 
River  Basin  Act  of  1903,  has  completed  the  new  foul-flow 
conduit  in  the  Fens  and  rebuilt  the  seven-foot  Stony  brook 
conduit,  through  which  the  water  of  Stony  brook  now  finds 
access  to  Charles  river.  This  relieves  the  Fens  from  the 
contamination  to  Avhich  it  has  long  been  subject  from  this 
source.  The  dredging  of  the  Fens'  basin,  provided  for  in 
the  act  referred  to,  has  also  been  completed  in  the  upper 
basin. 

Chapter  89  of  the  acts  of  1905  authorized  the  Board  to 
exchange  land  with  the  Museum  of  Fine  Arts  and  to  enter 
into  an  agreement  with  it  for  relocating  and  reconstructing 
the  Huntington  avenue  entrance,  upon  the  southerly  side 
of  which  the  new  Art  Museum  is  to  be  built.     Mutual  con- 


veyances  of  the  lands  in  question  were  accordingly  made,  by 
which  the  City  conveyed  to  the  Art  Museum  22,481  square 
feet  of  land  adjoining  the  Museum  site,  receiving  from  its 
Trustees  a  deed  for  34,559  square  feet  of  land  in  exchange. 
We  also  conveyed  to  the  Museum,  for  the  consideration  of 
twenty-three  thousand  dollars,  9,676  square  feet  of  land  on 
the  opposite  side  of  the  Huntington  avenue  entrance,  and 
made  an  agreement  with  the  Trustees,  for  the  above-named 
consideration,  for  them  to  reconstruct  the  entrance  and  the 
parts  of  the  Fens  in  the  vicinity  of  the  entrance  which  required 
rearrangement.  These  changes  will  give  a  better  shaped  lot 
for  the  new  Art  Museum,  and  are  also  to  the  public  advantage 
in  improving  the  park  lines. 

Commonwealth  avenue  from  Beacon  street  to  the  Newton 
boundary  line  was,  late  in  the  year,  placed  in  charge  of  this 
Department  by  the  City  Council.  The  roadways  are  very 
much  worn  and  need  resurfacing,  for  which  work  we  shall 
require  an  appropriation,  as  well  as  for  loam  and  trees,  which 
are  now  much  needed.  The  poor  condition  of  the  roadways 
is  partly  due  to  automobiles  and  the  high  speed  at  which  they 
have  been  run.  This  addition  of  9.3  miles  of  roadway,  giving 
us  forty-two  miles  of  macadamized  roads  which  can  only  be 
maintained  in  good  condition  by  frequent  rolling  with  a  heavy 
roller  and  judicious  watering,  will  necessitate  a  further  addi- 
tion to  the  number  of  steam  rollers  and  water  carts  in  use  by 
the  department,  and  will  make  a  considerable  increase  in  our 
expenditures  for  maintenance. 

We  regret  to  be  obliged  to  state  that,  under  the  present 
inadequate  appropriations  for  maintenance,  the  general 
quality  of  the  upkeep  of  our  parks  and  playgrounds  is  deteri- 
orating. A  certain  amount  of  new  work  is  given  to  the 
department  each  year,  to  meet  which  insufficient  or  no  pro- 
vision is  made.  The  result  is  that  many  of  our  roads  are 
worn  to  the  foundations  and  are  in  need  of  heavy  repairs,  and 
our  trees  and  shrubs  show  the  lack  of  good  cultivation. 
This  deficiency  in  the   appropriations  is   very  much    to  be 


regretted,  most  of  all  for  the  sake  of  the  trees,  on  whose 
health  and  proper  growth  depends  so  much  the  beauty  and 
value  of  Boston's  parks  and  playgrounds. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Charles  E.  Steatton, 

Laban  Peatt,

OLMSTED      PARK  — PINE     BANK. 


oJPERINTENDENT'S   REPORT. 


To   Charles  E.  Stratton,  Laban  Pratt   and    James 
M.  Prendergast,    Commissioners : 

Gentlemen,  —  I  herewith  submit  a  report  of  the  work 
performed  under  the  direction  of  your  Board  during  the  year 
ending  January  31,  1906. 

Franklin  Park. 

The  improvement  in  the  woodlands  generally  throughout 
the  department  becomes  more  noticeable  with  each  season. 
Our  work  in  thinning  out  overcrowding  or  worthless  growth, 
and  the  cutting  off  of  dead  and  diseased  limbs,  shows  its 
good  results  in  the  feathering  out  of  the  trees  and  the  more 
vigorous  undergrowth  of  native  shrubs  and  herbaceous 
plants,  strengthened  by  our  letting  in  light  and  air. 
Another  factor  in  the  improvement  of  these  woodlands  has 
been  the  mulching  of  the  surface  with  loam  where  the  soil 
covering  was  found  to  be  thin  or  poor  in  quality.  We  have 
done  considerable  of  this  work,  yet  much  remains  to  be  done. 
Many  of  the  old  woodlands  in  Franklin  Park  are  situated 
on  rocky  slopes  with  a  light  covering  of  loam  for  their  sup- 
port. Additions  of  loam  (for  which  we  need  additional 
appropriations)  to  trees  growing  under  such  conditions  would 
materially  increase  their  growth  and  beauty. 

During  the  past  fall  and  winter  extensive  preparations 
were  made  for  spring  planting,  a  large  number  of  holes 
being  carefully  prepared  along  the  Canterbury-street  border 
for  young  oaks.  On  Juniper  hill  ground  was  prepared  for 
planting  oaks  and  junipers,  and  preparations  were  made  along 


10 

the  face  of  the  slope  of  Scarboro  hill  for  planting  thorns, 
dogwood  and  other  large-growing  shrubbery.  Arrangements 
for  this  sort  of  planting  were  also  made  on  the  edge  of  the 
young  plantations  on  the  opposite  slope  of  the  hill,  along  the 
Circuit  Drive.  The  material  for  this  work  is  all  at  hand  in 
the  nurseries  of  the  department.  Ground  was  prepared  last 
spring  in  the  Wilderness  for  a  colony  of  mountain  laurels. 
The  plants  were  collected  from  native  stock,  which  had  been 
cultivated  in  the  department  nurseries  for  four  years,  and 
were  in  fine  condition.  The  planting  forms  an  irregular 
grouping  along  the  road  and  bridle-path  in  the  Wilderness, 
and  promises,  in  a  little  time,  to  be  a  very  pleasing  feature. 
The  young  tree  plantations  are  generally  in  good  condition. 
Much  better  growth,  however,  would  accrue  each  year  did 
our  means  permit  of  a  higher  degree  of  cultivation. 

Smoke  conditions  are  becoming  more  serious  with  each 
season.  Evergreens  especially  show  the  effect  very  markedly. 
At  the  present  rate  of  increase  of  smoke  pollution  in  the 
atmosphere  a  very  few  years  will  see  the  end  of  evergreen 
conifers  in  our  parks,  except  as  stunted,  blackened  specimens. 
Therefore  the  planting  of  conifers  for  permanent  effect  would 
seem  to  be  unwise. 

Efforts  have  been  made  for  the  past  two  seasons  to  breed 
pheasants  in  the  park,  by  using  domestic  hens  as  brooders. 
Last  year  about  fifty  were  carried  through  until  fall,  enough 
of  which  still  remain  to  interest  visitors  to  the  park. 
Quail,  too,  are  protected  and  fed  in  winter,  and  are  fairly 
plentiful  in  the  Arboretum  and  in  Franklin  Park. 

Arnold  Arboretum,  the  Arborway  and  Jamaicaway. 

Except  the  ordinary  work  of  maintenance,  no  work  of  im- 
portance was  done  in  the  Arboretum.  Along  the  Arborway, 
Jamaicaway  and  Riverway  a  heavy  thinning  out  of  large 
shrubs  was  made.  These  were  principally  cornels  and  vibur- 
nums, which  encroached,  by  overhanging  growth,  on  roads 
and  paths. 


n 


Olmsted  Park. 

In  Olmsted  Park  little  was  required  outside  of  the  work 
of  maintenance.  As  in  the  Riverway,  the  remarkable  growth 
of  the  tree  and  shrubbery  plantations  called  for  a  large 
amount  of  thinning  out. 

The  Fens. 

The  work  of  the  Sewer  Department  in  the  Fens,  together 
with  the  changes  consequent  on  the  new  alignment  of  the 
property  of  the  Museum  of  Fine  Arts,  and  the  filling  in  of 
the  new  Fens'  playground,  made  this  part  of  the  park  system 
anything  but  an  agreeable  place  during  the  past  season.  The 
Fenway  drive  and  adjoining  planting  spaces  over  the  conduit 
were  restored,  and  some  planting  was  done.  Work  is  now 
in  progress  on  the  grading  near  the  Museum  grounds  and 
gatehouses,  with  the  prospect  that  the  greater  portion  of  this 
ground  will  be  ready  for  planting  in  the  spring. 

The  work  of  filling  the  new  Fens'  playground  is  still  in 
progress,  the  material  being  mostly  received  from  the  Sani- 
tary Department.  At  the  present  rate  of  progress  the  filling- 
will  not  be  completed  until  the  end  of  summer. 

The  pumping  of  sewage  from  the  bottom  of  the  Fens'  pond 
by  the  Sewer  Department  is  not  yet  completed. 

Commonwealth  Avenue. 

The  young  elms  planted  in  the  spring  of  1904,  between 
Dartmouth  street  and  Brookline  avenue,  have  made  an  excel- 
lent growth. 

Chaelesbank. 

The  construction  work  of  the  Charles  River  Basin  Com- 
mission has  interfered  sorely  with  the  comfort  and  convenience 
of  those  using  this  recreation  ground.  However,  the  marginal 
conduit  along  Charles  street  is  now  completed,  and  the  work 
of  restoration  of  the  surface  can  be  undertaken. 


12 

The  gymnasiums  were  as  usual  well  patronized.  In  the 
men's  outdoor  gymnasium  classes  for  boys  and  young  men 
were  conducted,  as  in  the  past.  The  report  of  the  Massachu- 
setts Emergency  and  Hygiene  Association,  giving  an  account 
of  the  work  done  in  the  women's  and  children's  gymnasium, 
will  be  found  elsewhere  in  this  report. 

Wood  Island  Park. 

The  trees  at  this  attractive  resort  continue  to  make 
excellent  growth.  In  consequence,  the  slopes,  which  six 
or  seven  years  ago  were  bare  and  wind-swept,  now  give  a 
pleasant  shade  to  the  many  thousands  who  visit  the  park 
during  the  season.  The  success  attending  the  efforts  to  es- 
tablish tree  growth  on  Wood  Island  demonstrates  clearly 
that  the  islands  in  the  harbor  could  be  much  enhanced  in 
beauty  were  such  portions  as  could  be  devoted  to  the  purpose 
planted  with  suitable  trees. 

The  gymnasium,  also  the  tennis,  baseball  and  cricket 
grounds  were  well  patronized  during  the  summer  season. 
As  usual,  the  gymnasium  and  baseball  grounds  were  flooded 
in  winter  for  skating. 

Charlestown  Heights. 
Only  the  ordinary  work  of  maintenance  was  required  here. 

Marine  Park  and  Strandway. 

During  the  hot  weather  Marine  Park  and  Castle  Island 
are  the  most  popular  portions  of  Boston's  system  of  parks. 
On  the  bridge  or  pier  promenades,  on  the  soft  turf  under  the 
walls  of  Fort  Independence,  or  under  the  fine  old  horsechest- 
nuts  and  elms  of  Castle  Island,  a  cooling  breeze  can  always  be 
found.  The  harbor  views,  also,  are  attractive.  Many  thou- 
sands enjoy  these  advantages  on  fine  Sundays  and  holidays. 

The  Strandway  drive  is  now  completed,  making  a  continu- 
ous drive  on  well-kept  parkways  from  Marine  Park  to  the 


13 

Public  Garden,  a  distance  of  twelve  and  one-half  miles,  pass- 
ing on  the  way  through  Franklin  Park,  by  the  Arnold  Arbore- 
tum, through  Olmsted  Park,  the  Riverway  and  the  Fens. 

The  portion  of  the  Strandwa}'  lying  between  Newman 
street  and  the  railroad  bridge  is  not  yet  planted.  The  ground, 
however,  is  prepared  and  planting  will  be  commenced  with 
the  opening  of  spring.  This  planting,  with  the  loaming  of 
the  railroad  slopes  and  the  grading  between  the  walk  and  the 
beach,  was  not  done  by  the  Street  Department  as  part  of  the 
Strandway  construction.  An  appropriation  is  needed  for 
this  work,  also  for  the  erection  of  a  fence  on  the  loam  space 
extending  through  the  section  where  it  is  impossible  other- 
wise to  protect  the  trees  and  shrubbery. 

Filling  is  still  being  received  opposite  Newman  street.  A 
large  part  of  the  newly  filled  area  is  now  levelled  and  is  used 
as  a  playground.  This  area  could  be  somewhat  enlarged 
were  an  appropriation  made  for  the  removal  of  the  barn  and 
the  establishment  of  an  administrative  }Tard  on  a  lot  nearby, 
owned  by  your  department. 

Chestnut  Hill  Park. 

The  dwelling-house  and  barn  fronting  on  Commonwealth 
avenue  have  been  sold  and  removed,  the  cellars  filled  up,  and 
some  grading  done.  From  lack  of  an  appropriation,  no  work 
has  been  done  toward  the  development  of  the  land  last  pur- 
chased for  the  planting  of  a  screen  belt. 

Large  crowds  frequent  Chestnut  Hill  Park  on  Sundays. 
Tennis,  football  and  baseball  fields  are  furnished  on  the 
playground  and  many  enjoy  the  sports. 

Franklin  Field. 

Talbot  and  Blue  Hill  Avenues. 

(77  Acres.) 

Franklin  Field,  with  its  forty  acres  of  level  field,  offers 
great  advantages  for  sport  and  is  the  most  popular  of  the 


14 

department's  playgrounds.  It  cannot  be  termed  a  local 
playground ;  it  is  a  meeting  place  for  contestants  in  athletic 
sports  from  every  part  of  Boston  and  the  surrounding  towns. 
Eighteen  or  twenty  baseball  games  between  regularly  or- 
ganized clubs  are  frequently  played  on  a  Saturday  afternoon. 
Three  cricket  creases  and  nineteen  tennis  courts  are  also 
furnished  and  are  much  in  demand. 

The  seven  or  eight  acres  which  were  plowed,  levelled  and 
seeded  last  spring,  although  used  during  the  summer,  have  a 
fairly  good  sod  considering  the  adverse  conditions.  Another 
area,  of  about  the  same  size,  of  the  roughest  part  of  the 
ground,  was  turned  under  by  the  plow  in  the  fall  and  will  be 
levelled  and  seeded  next  spring.  An  enlargement  of  the 
levelled  ground  is  much  needed.  A  large  piece '  of  the 
nursery  will  be  cleared  next  spring.  An  appropriation, 
however,  will  be  required  to  get  it  into  suitable  condition  for 
play.  A  building,  too,  is  much  needed  to  serve  for  sanitary 
and  locker  accommodations.  At  present  the  players  have  no 
facilities  for  changing  or  for '  safe-storing  their  clothing. 
An  appropriation  for  the  above-mentioned  purposes  is  much 
needed.  The  field,  as  usual,  was  flooded  and  used  for 
skating  last  winter. 

Christopher     Gibson     Playground. 

Dorchester  Avenue  and  Park  Street. 
(5.8  Acres. ,) 

A  portion  of  this  playground  is  furnished  with  simple  ap- 
paratus for  the  use  of  the  children.  A  female  teacher  is  in 
charge,  and  the  results  have  been  very  satisfactory.  Tennis 
and  baseball  are  popular  features  of  the  playground.  In  the 
winter  a  part  of  the  ground  is  flooded  for  skating.  No  work, 
other  than  that  of  maintenance,  has  been  done  during  the 
past  season. 


15 


Savin  Hill  Beach. 

Springdale  Street,  Dorchester. 
(18.6  Acres.) 
There  is  need  of  further  extension  of  facilities  for  bathers 
at  this  popular  resort.  We  now  have  eighty-five  closets  for 
men  and  women  and  two  hundred  and  ten  clothing  lockers 
for  boys.  To  relieve  overcrowding,  plans  are  in  preparation 
by  your  department  for  the  erection  of  a  building  to  contain 
five  hundred  and  forty-eight  lockers  for  men.  This  will  en- 
able us  to  turn  over  the  old  building  of  eighty-five  closets  to 
the  exclusive  use  of  women.  The  beach  is  in  need  of  sand. 
An  appropriation  for  this  purpose  is  desirable.  Skating  was 
provided  at  this  playground  during  the  past  winter. 

Neponset  Playground. 

Neponset  Avenue. 
(18  Acres.') 
This  is  a  convenient  and  popular  playground  for  baseball 
games.  A  playground  for  children  was  established  here  two 
seasons  ago.  Swings,  teeter-boards,  tilting-ladders  and  other 
simple  apparatus  were  installed,  and  this  part  of  the  play- 
ground was  placed  in  charge  of  a  female  teacher. 

An  appropriation  is  needed  for  the  purchase  of  loam  for 
levelling  the  inequalities  of  the  marsh,  as  the  levelled  portion 
is  now  too  small  for  the  demand  for  baseball  diamonds,  and 
preparations  for  utilizing  more  of  the  marsh  should  be  made. 
A  good  area  of  ice  for  winter  skati^j  is  provided  at  this 
playground. 

Mystic  Playground. 

Chelsea  Street  and  Mystic  River. 
(2.3  Acres.) 
No  work  was  performed  on  this  playground,  except  the 
usual  care  of  the  grounds,  which  contain  a  children's  corner, 
with  apparatus,  under  the  care  of  a  teacher.     A  baseball  dia- 
mond is  also  maintained. 


16 


Rogers  Park. 

Lake  and  Foster  Streets. 
(6.9  Acres.*) 

An  appropriation  is  required  to  place  the  brook,  which 
runs  across  the  lower  end  of  Rogers  Park,  underground. 
This  will  permit  of  the  enlargement  of  the  levelled  area  for 
play,  which  is  a  work  much  needed.  It  would  also  be  desirable 
to  prepare  the  ground  and  to  plant  trees  on  the  boundaries  of 
the  playground.  A  dam  was  placed  across  the  outlet  of  the 
brook  last  fall,  and  a  skating  pond  made. 

North  Brighton  Playground. 

Western  Avenue  and  Harvard  Street. 

(14  Acres.) 

An  extension  of  the  graded  area  of  this  playground,  to 
meet  the  growing  demand  for  ball  diamonds,  is  desirable,  and 
an  appropriation  for  the  purchase  of  loam,  to  fill  up  the 
inequalities  of  the  meadow  lands,  is  required.  Trees  should 
be  planted '  on  the  boundaries  of  the  playground  without 
unnecessary  delay.  This  will  require  an  additional  appro- 
priation for  the  preparation  of  the  ground.  The  playground 
is  flooded  for  skating. 

Billings  Field. 

La  Grange  Street,  near  Centre  Street,  West  Roxbury. 

(11  Acres.) 

No  work  except  that  of  maintenance  was  done  at  this 
playground  during  the  past  season.  Another  large  sink  has 
developed  in  the  centre  of  the  playground.  This  is  caused 
by  the  shifting  of  the  boggy  subsoil,  over  which  the  original 
filling  was  placed.  Tennis,  baseball  and  football  are  the 
favorite  summer  games;  in  winter  the- ball  field  is  flooded 
for  skating.  Shelter  and  sanitary  accommodations  are 
needed.

ROSLINDALB   PLAYGROUND. 

South  Walter  and  Robert  Streets. 

(3.7  Acres.-) 

About  one  hundred  linear  feet  of  bleachers  have  been 
erected  in  this  playground.  A  shelter  and  sanitary  building 
are  needed.  The  playground  is  very  much  used,  the  summer 
games  being  tennis  and  baseball ;  in  winter  the  field  is  flooded 
for  skating. 

Columbus-avenue  Playground. 

(5  Acres.) 

Here  the  Civic  League  bears  the  expense  of  kindergarten 
and  athletic  instructors,  and  also  of  a  teacher  in  gardening 
work.  Provision  is  made  for  baseball  games,  while  for  boys 
and  small  children  separate  enclosures  are  provided,  in 
which  gymnastic  apparatus,  sand-boxes,  etc.,  are  installed  for 
their  use,  and  many  little  gardens  are  cultivated.  The 
grounds  are  flooded  for  skating  in  winter. 

Prince-street  Playground. 

Prince  and  North  Bennet  Streets. 

(0.4  Acre.) 

This  playground,  located  in  one  of  the  most  congested 
districts,  contains  teeter-boards,  swings,  tilting-ladders,  etc., 
with  a  female  teacher  in  charge.  This  all  too  little  play- 
ground is  very  much  appreciated  by  the  children  of  the  dis- 
trict in  which  it  is  located. 

First-street  Playground. 

Corner  of  M  Street,  South  Boston. 
(4.6  Acres.) 

The  frame  work  of  the  out-door  gymnasium  was  set  up 
during  the  past  season  ;  an  appropriation  is   needed  to   com- 


18 

plete  its  equipment.     The  grounds,  as  usual,  were   flooded 
in  the  winter  for  skating. 

Fellows-street  Playground. 

Fellows  and  Hunneman  Streets. 
(0.85  Acre.) 

This  playground  required  only  the  usual  work  of  main- 
tenance during  the  past  season.  It  is  equipped  with  simple 
gymnastic  apparatus  for  children,  a  female  teacher  being  in 
charge.     A  sanitary  building  is  needed. 

Cottage-street  Playground. 

Near  Maverick  Street,  East  Boston. 

(3.85  Acres.) 

This  playground  is  much  used  for  baseball,  and  is  flooded 
in  winter  for  skating.  The  pressing  needs  are  fencing  and 
sanitary  accommodations. 

Forest  Hills  and  Mt.  Hope  Playground. 

Between  Washington  and  Florence  Streets. 
(9.6  Acres.) 

The  drainage  of  this  playground  has  been  much  improved 
by  deepening  the  brook  and  running  a  series  of  tile  drains 
through  the  lowest  parts  of  the  grounds.  While  the  field  is 
in  fairly  good  condition  and  space  can  be  found  for  at  least 
three  diamonds,  an  appropriation  for  grading  would  largely  in- 
crease its  usefulness.     Sanitary  accomodations,  too,  are  needed. 

Marcella-street  Playground. 

Marcella  and  Ritchie  Streets. 
(4.5  Acres.) 

During  the  past  season  a  contract  was  made  for  the  re- 
moval of  the  old  "  Home "   building  and  the  erection  of  a 


19 

sanitary  and  locker  .building.  The  sanitaries  are  completed 
and  are  now  in  regular  use.  The  lockers,  however,  are  not 
yet  constructed.  To  overcome  the  steep  grade  of  the  play- 
ground a  retaining-wall,  with  return  wings,  was  built  at  the 
lower  end  adjoining  the  yard  of  the  City  Sanitary  Depart- 
ment, and  the  entire  playground  was  graded  to  an  average 
pitch  of  27  inches  per  100  feet.  The  grading  is  now 
nearly  completed.  The  result  is  very  satisfactory,  the  new 
grade  being  easy  and  no  obstacle  to  good  play,  while,  at  the 
same  time,  a  large  amount  of  useless  space  has  been  made 
available.  This  playground  is  in  a  populous  locality  and 
cannot  fail  to  be  of  great  benefit  to  a  large  number. 

Randolph-street  Playground. 

Albany  and  Randolph  Streets. 
(2.8  Acres.') 

This  playground  is  located  in  a  populous  district  and  con- 
tains facilities  for  ball  playing.  Children's  gardens  border  it  on 
three  sides.  These  gardens  are  protected  from  flying  balls 
by  high  expanded-metal  fencing,  and  from  wandering  dogs 
and  careless  feet,  on  the  street  side,  by  low  pipe  fences,  the 
panels  of  which  are  filled  with  woven  wire.  Sanitary  ac- 
commodations were  provided  during  the  past  season.  A 
children's  corner,  provided  with  simple  apparatus,  occupies 
one  corner  of  the  playground.  This  is  supervised  by  a  female 
teacher.     The  grounds  are  flooded  in  winter  for  skating. 

Commonwealth  Playground. 

This  playground,  the  fee  of  which  is  in  the  Commonwealth, 
recently  put  in  our  charge,  has  accommodations  for  five  base- 
ball diamonds.  It  has  also  a  corner  well  adapted  for  a 
children's  playground.  Sanitary  accommodations  for  men 
have  been  provided  during  the  past  season.  The  grounds 
are  suitable  for  arrangements  for  flooding  in  winter  for 
skating. 


20 


Sports. 

On  account  of  the  mildness  of  the  past  winter,  there  was 
not  much  opportunity  for  skating,  tobogganing  and  curling. 
There  was  a  slight  falling  off  in  golf  attendance  during  the 
season,  the  number  being  28,000  against  32,000  of  last  year. 
Tennis  was  very  popular.  Baseball,  as  usual,  took  the  lead  ; 
of  all  sports  it  seems  to  be  the  favorite  and  to  retain  its  hold 
the  longest.  The  demand  for  football  grounds  was  greater 
than  ever  before. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

J.  A.  Pettigrew, 

Superintendent.

REPORT  OF  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  THE  MASSA- 
CHUSETTS EMERGENCY  AND  HYGIENE  ASSO- 
CIATION IN  CHARGE  OF  THE  WOMEN'S  AND 
CHILDREN'S  DIVISION  AT  CHARLESBANK. 


Boston,  January  17,  1906. 
To  the  Board  of  Park  Commissioners  : 

Gentlemen, — Our  report  for  this,  the  fifteenth  year  of  our 
superintendence  at  Charlesbank,  presents  no  new  features  of 
special  value.  The  everyday  occurrences  among  the  women 
and  children,  who  pass  so  many  of  their  hours  at  the  lodge, 
on  the  green  or  in  the  gymnasium,  though  of  interest  to  us, 
have  not  sufficient  importance  for  a  public  record.  Yet  it  is 
in  the  management  of  such  trivial  incidents  that  we  find  en- 
couragement for  the  friendly  supervision  we  give. 

The  numbers  in  attendance  have  been  surprisingly  good 
when  the  inconveniences  connected  with  reaching  the  lodge 
are  remembered.  Before  another  season  it  is  expected  that 
they  will  be  done  away  with  by  the  completion  of  the  bridge 
and  the  laying  of  the  big  sewer,  when  the  place  again  will  be 
in  order. 

Miss  Cutler,  the  superintendent,  was  assisted  through  the 
summer  by  Miss  Mary  J.  Price,  who  won  the  love  of  the 
children,  interested  them  in  their  games  and  was  skilful  as 
^eacher  of  gymnastics. 

With  the  closing  of  the  autumn  work  in  October,  Miss 
Cutler's  resignation,  which  was  tendered  several  months  pre- 
viously, took  effect.  She  has  been  the  devoted,  efficient,  wise 
superintendent  for  many  years,  giving  a  personal  attention  to 
the   children  that  greatly  benefited  their   health  and  their 


22 

character.  Her  sincerity  enforced  the  value  of  her  discipline, 
while  her  cordiality  made  the  children  feel  at  ease  with  her. 
She  has  left  to  the  lodge  the  many  books  she  had  collected 
as  reading  matter  for  the  women  and  girls,  also  numerous 
games,  scrap  and  picture  books. 

Owing  to  the  difficulty  of  access,  the  evening  classes  have 
been  discontinued  for  the  winter.  The  lodge,  however,  with 
its  big  upper  plaj^room,  is  open  every  afternoon  for  several 
hours,  and  in  the  autumn  and  spring  there  is  much  time 
which  the  children  can  spend  on  the  playground.  Miss 
Emma  A.  Phelps,  who  so  often  has  acted  as  vacation  super- 
intendent, is  in  sole  charge  of  this  daily  afternoon  care  of  the 
children. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Kate  Gannett  Wells, 
Anna  Phillips  Williams. 

For  the  Committee.
