The season for cleaning up and re-
moving the accumulation of leaves has
come and it is to be hoped that this
work this spring may be more general
than for the past several years. The
Association, residents and non-residents
and owners of vacant lots should all,
early in the season, attend to this work
which contributes so much to the at
Effectiveness of the Park. MANY resi-
dents are forced to remove the leaves
from their premises several times every
spring on account of the neglect of
others who allow the leaves to remain
on their lots and are carried by every
gust of wind onto the premises of their
neighbors.
