I took him for a drivethrough our parks, from Boston toFranklin Park and around ChestnutHill Reservoir. He acknowledged thatin his judgment Boston had the mostbeautiful park system in the world.

Some landscape gardenershould present a plan for the develop-ment of Charles River Basin, so thatthe water-ways may rival our park in and make the most of this and Iam sure a change, and for the better, willcome in time.
