The invention. as they all find out. is laughing gas that makes them laugh and forget their arguments over the flowers, trees. and colors of the benches. The play ends of course with the town getting its park and Tommy finding his way back into the good graces of his family and friends, The Characters w'ere: Tommy Prentlss, Joe Streamerg Mrs. Prentiss, Rose Formicag Mr. Prentiss, Leo Ciarlone: Mack.
