Kids and family entertainment: the town's share at pointer

The exact page text, read by your browser's voice.

Inside the town: nothing, tested. No amusement park, trolley park, kiddie park, rink, arcade, miniature-golf course, playground, or Saturday-matinee house stands in Indian Village in any era on any record reached — the town has no park and no commercial building of any kind inside its line, on the whole institution record of this build, and a family-entertainment ground is an institution. The town's family record is therefore the county's, at pointer, as this section's boundary rule directs: the county's trolley-park and amusement era — Playland Park at South Bend (the Springbrook ground, home of the Interstate Fair until 1925 on the fair's own history) — is South Bend's to own whole; the county fair and the zoo, in the articles beside this one, are the family's standing grounds; and the township's own historic family institutions — the Brethren Sunday School and the congregation's social course of 1881–1921 — stand in the religion file at their strength. What the town's children did for fun inside the town, in the decades of the houses' building, no carrier reached records — back yards and seven small streets leave no archive — and the leg prints that as a gap of the ordinary kind, not as an absence of childhood.
