The principal parks, Broadway, Central Hill, Prospect Hill, Lincoln, and Tufts, have been policed by regular officers from the police department during the summer months. Trees and shrubs have been added, bulbs, plants, and flowers furnished in their seasons and skating provided during the winter.
Three ball fields, out-doors gymnasium, bicycle track, tennis courts, etc., have been kept in condition and used constantly throughout the year by various athletic teams.
The Powder House boulevard has been maintained at small expense and a number of buildings have been erected on this driveway the past year.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
The remaining portion of the field at the corner of Broadway and Cedar street should be graded and the Glen-street grounds enlarged by additional land in the rear, making a better pro- portioned playground, whenever an appropriation is available.
