At this season of the year Jessfield Park is exceptionally beautiful, with its flower beds a mass of colour, its lawns a carpet of green, and its fine old trees in full leaf. There are always visitors in the Park, but it is on holidays when real activity is seen ana Shanghai residents flock there in thousands. One of the favourite spots is the Pond, which is the scene of keen miniature yacht racing. The Zoo, also, has its many visitors, children especially finding a never-ending delight in the menagerie.
