Island has ever known. An interest
ing program of exercises and ente
tainments for the week could easily
be arranged and mailed to former resi-
dents of the county | claim no orig
inality for this idea. but only suggest
that we do what others have so sue
cessfully done.
Permit one other suggestion. The
beautiful boulevard on Seventh avenue
must soon be named. Would it not
meet with the approval of our citizens
generally to name it in honor of gen
tleman who has done more than am
other person to develop and beautif:
the parks of our city? We all know
that the Transformation of Spencer
square from an unsightly dumpin
ground to the most beautiful block il
the city was brought about through
The tireless efforts of William Jack
son. And We further know that NJ :.
Jackson is now ungrudgingly giving
his time and money to the develop
ment of Long View park. 1t seems to
me that the least our city could dc
in recognition of such valuable se"-
vices would be to call some public
place by his name He does not ask
it. but certainly the common judgment
of the people would approve it. Let
us call it Jackson Boulevard
