"OUILMETTE PARK" v Editor, The Lake Shore News; *«> I want to thank you for the splendid picture of the beautiful wooded tract proposed for a "Ouilmette Park," and the descriptive story by Mr. Duncan- 9?.r!F ,w.hik:h yo« also published, is delightful. %-Wwfr, â- :S1 C- -kkW^"^&t I can hearfiiy endorse what Mr. Duncan-Clark says concerning the delightful "first impression" that one gets coming from the city as one first glimpses these beautiful trees,â€""now we're in Wilmette."
