RED AND WHITE CHAIN STORES The neii children's plat ground ivan officinfiy opened on hVed- nesday afternoon by Reeve Vin- son, ivho in his address, which was mailily directed to the ninny chil&i(ion present, tokl them he hoped they woulil show their ap- piieciation of «hnt hnd lieen clone for them by using the apparatus in 0 proper manner. Other places harl been provided ivith such playgroumls through the generosity of service clubs, but in West Vancouver the same had been provideil solely through the indefatigable efforts of the committee in charge and the gen- erosity of the many citizens who had sut&scribed to the fund. He called for three cheers for the committee, which were given in no uncertain mnnner by the children and grown ups who ivere present. Rev. A. Harding Priest comiucted the dedication service by reading n portion of the Bible referring to chililren and the recitation of a short prayer. Councillor Ray, chair- man of the playground commit- tee, spoke of thc work of his committee, and stated that this was only the first playground. It was their hope and intention to establish at a future date similar playgrounds at Houyburn an&i Dundarave, and a third in Whytecliff. Friday and Saturday Specials 6 BARS P. 6( G.

IVith such an understanding the assessment becomes immediately divested of the sting of imposed obligation, and in place of a sense of burden or re- sentment, one may find himself quite properly indulging in satisfaction. Another illustration:--one man is successful; he acquires a business, a home, then possibly additional property and later a variety of stocks, bonds and other assets, and of course he is taxed accordingly. Another man may seem to be not so successful. Let us assume that he has neither home, business nor assets, and so is free from taxation. Who, in choosing for himself one of these two conditions, would not select the first, and woukl not be grateful that he had enough of this world' goods so that he could take his place, and do his part, beside other men of success? The thought of gratitude for the priv- ilege of being able to pay taxes may arouse a sense of derision within some, but for many others the merits of this attitude will be seen and they will be happy to join the ranks of the grateful. They will see that duty imbued with gratitude ex- pands into joyful accomplishment, which, in turn, tends to develop into,and attract greater success. Practicauy everyone loves little children, and au who do love them take great pleasure in providing for the general welfare, education and happiness, not only of their own, but of as many others as possible. To these the school tax is no burden. They take pride in the public school of today and rejoice at the provision of every improved method and facility whereby the children may receive additional advantages. Thus love and generosity join hands with duty, the tax becomes a gift, and aH concerned--the child, the taxpayer, and the com- munity at large--are benefited beyond estimation. On the other hand there may be a few who think they &lo not like children, and who regard most of the expemlitures required in their behalf as burdensome. However, even these will admit that when children must be about they prefer them to be order- ly, obedient and capable. And is this not something of an admission on their part for the necessity of training and edu- cating children? Even the most reluctant taxpayer must in au fairness concede that he gets returns from his school tax in spite of his opposition to them. Even He To consider this more or less unwilling taxpayer a little further, could the inmost secrets of his heart be revealed we might afi be surprised to learn how much this very one desires to be kinder and longs for that freedom and spontaneity which his neighbor, who has acquired the habit of kindness, possess- es, and who consequently is able to face his tax obligations with good grace. A few people in the «orld today understand, aml more are constantly arriving at the conclusion, that there is power inright thinking. Therefore is it so unreasonable to hope for the day when so much appreciation, satisfaction, gratitude, love,generosity and joy shall be put into the paying of our taxesthat it will be impossible for resentment, hatred and cunningto manifest itself. And upon considering how much more the taxpayer has tobe thankful for than he han to bemoan, may we not also lookforward to that happy state of tax reformation upon the partof the public whereby the politician may honestly gain votes by his assurances of certain additir&nal improvements to l&eprovided from public funds, rather than by having to longertread the well-worn platform of tax reduction.
