| desire to place the streets of Greenville in a
fine condition at a nominal cost they have
an excellent opportunity now that the
macadam ON Ocean avenue is being torn
up" said a prominent property owner to a
reporter of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS yester-
day.
Il believe" he went Oh, ''that the Com
missioners will use some of the crushed stone
in macadamizing Old Bergen Road, but
other prominent t~horoughfares in first class
condition. AMONG the streets that need some
sort of pavement are Pearsall, Linden,
Hooker, Winfield, Neptune, Bay View, Wood
lawn and Bidwel avenues. There will be
enough crushed stone left after Old Bergen
Road is improved to macadamize these
thoroughfare. and the property owner will
be more than willing to pay for the improve
ment when they learn that it can be made at
a much lower figure h at any other time"
The attention of the Sixth District Citizens
Association will be called to this matter.
Ocean avenue is m-acadamized from Myrtle
avenue to Gates avenue, a distance of one
and a half miles. Old Bergen Road is less
than one-third of Il mile long, and II it is
m~acadannized with the crushed stone now o n
Ocean avenue, there will still be enough of
the material left to macadamize two-thirds
of a mile of road, allowing for all shrinkage.
Pearsall, Winfield, Hooker and Linden
avenues are all thiekly populated and sorely
in need Of improvement. Danforth avenue,
the most important ~thoroughfare crossing
Ocean avenue, is unimproved from Old Ber-
gen road to the Newark Bay shore, and if
this section was macadamized it would meet
with the appreciation of the residents of
Greenville. The property owners on this
street petltioned the old Street and Water
Board a number of times for the improve
ment, but none of the petitions were granted.

The Great High school Mysti cation

For once, we entirely agree with the
journal that the circumstances of the
High School trouble call for a thor
ough and a public investigation.
There is no other way in which justice
can be done Mr.. Sweeney, and no
other in which his can make
their motives generally respected. In
general, the less scandal there is about
schools the better. If anything is
wrong, it had best be settled quietly
in the interest of the children-that
their respect for their elders and
superiors may not be impaired. But
this is a peculiar case. There is just
enough of the murder out to make a
scandal, and the vagueness of the
talk suggests that the scandal is very
dreadful, whereas in point of fact the
more one looks into il In the ~obscurity
Of published statements the more
trivial the whole affair becomes.
So far as lon can get at it. there are
three charges against MI. Sweeney
1. That he smokes cigarettes.
2. That he drinks beer. %
3. That he fails to pay some debts.
The first of these is SO frivolous as
to be beneath consideration The
second is almost equally ridiculous,
unless the further charge turks De-

enjoying COED health. They like the
country there very well, object most
seriously to the damp weather, but
are thankful that the rains come
gently, although almost necessarily
through the winter season. They are
living in town On two lots which he
says is a pretty small ranch" for a
Kansas farmer. He says he has
planted some OF his garden, that
fruit trees are almost in bloom, and
that fruit is cOuuted a sure crop
The country is timbered one and
farms are small; good country fol-
tame grasses when cleared up. They
will remain there another season and
are not yet decided as to whether
they will return to Kansas or not.
