these difficulties can be overcome.
When such time has arrived that we
are in position to pave a street, see
that the sewer pipes, water, gas, etc.,
have beer laid sufficiently in advOnce
of said paving to allow the settling of
the disturbed ground, because when
a street is paved directly following
the laying of condults of any nature,
the ground has not had time to resume
lis normal solidity, and the result is
there are hollow spots under the pave
menf which remove its proper SUP
port; and in this connection | would
suggest that sewer and water pipes be
laid Of sufficient calibre to not only
supply the present demand but the
probable demand on them in the
future. Lack of ~forethought in this
matter results in increased expense in
long run as also dissatisfaction to
the pubic.
Parks are Needed,
| wish to draw your attention to a
matter which [ think at least three
quarters of the citizens of Perth Am
boy would approve. Our city is taking
on a steady normal growth, and with
her natural advantages and facilities,
in time is bound to become II of the
leading cities of our State. Is it not
well TO look forward to the time when
we will need q place Of recreation for
youug and old, in other words, a
public park of sufficient size? When
you erect q new reservoir for our
water supply, why not purchase nd
%iacont lands TO meet this Issue, if not
other lands which you may deem fit.
And in this line, / would like to sug-
gest to your honorable hoard that you
cause to be erected or allowed to be
erected u band stand in our present
public park, ana | have no doubt our
local celebrities would gladly furnish
music at suitable intervals during the
summer, and give many of our citizens
pleasure which they otherwise cou d
not afford. The said bandstand would
prove useful in many other ways, such
as public addresses, out-of.door
church and hospital affairs, etc.

lands administr 4tion bonds issued
almost to the limit, and the exohequer
depleted. The bonds that have been
issued must be met, and to do so, the
taxes at present cannot be reduced;
but 1t is our duty, gentlemen, by close
economy and by taking advantage of
every opportunity, to save or make
money for the city. BY so doing, you
will be able to lift the heavy burden
Of taxation from rhe shoulders Of our
people. In this connection, | believe
the establishment Of a sinking fund
with a sinking fluid commissioner in
charge be established, because the
sinking fund and city's accounts
should be separate and distinct, and 1t
would give better prestige in the sale
of our bonds,
