Allentown the Beautiful And Fountain Park is typical of all the parks in our city. They are all the perfect example of the perfect city park. The recently beautified and modernized Jordan Park and the equally lovely and modern River Front Park have become two of the most popular recreation centers in town If she turns a blt to the west she sees Trexler Park another lovely tretch of color flowers trees lakes green grass every where a forest frlnge and more bright flowers its wlndlng roads and lakes and its snowy swans its acres of lawn and clumps of trees To the south of this park and over the hill IS Lehigh Parkway with ltS winding roads and equally bright flowers It boasts its miles too of a long shaded bridle path that follows the graceful roundabout turns of a wide sparkling stream lt winds in and out among trees and bushes and over bridges always near the sparkling stream that seems somehow to make the surrounding territory Neither Columbia on her pedestal nor Allentown has yet been able to decide which of her parks or her parkways is most lovely She looks far over the hills to the Trexler Trout Hatchery and far over other hills mto the valleys at the Game Preserve perhaps the only place in the Lehigh Valley where buffalo and elk and deer are to be found As she looks out across great blossoming orchards that stretch over the hills and afar away her glance comes back to rest on hundreds of beautiful well kept yards and gardens many of them rock gardens from whose smooth gray surfaces flowers of all hues and shades peep out more of them just pleasant home yards And she cherishes ln her heart all these pretty and lnterestmg scenes that belong to her and she IS proud as we are proud Nowhere else in Pennsylvanla are there so many lovely spots nowhere else IS there so beautiful a countryside as in our lmmedxate neighborhood within easv reach Truly Allentown rightly deserves the title the garden spot of the East Yes, we may well be proud of our home town' . , S ! !
