The NEWS DOWN
IN HOLLY BEACH
The BOrough's New Municipal
Book Large Enough to Record
10000 Assessments
REGENT INTERESTING HAPPENINGS

A fine specimen of book binding and
paper ruling from the Philadelphia
factory of Henry j. Bartle was placed
on the Mayors desk last Saturday for
the Borough. This municipal book of
assessments was originally designed by
d. w. Garrigues, expert accountant,
for the Borough of North Wildwood,
and when the officials of Holly Beach
saw the many advantages of the copy
righted book, also ordered one large
enough to record 10000 assessments.
This is evidence of better public records
on Five Mile Beach and argues for a
better system of bookkeeping. If each
borough would adopt the block system
in assessing taxes it would be another
advance step found. Mr.. Garrigues is
designing a system of cash records for
Anglesea.
