Ready To Begin Road work

United States Senator John Walter
Smith, Mr.. E. II. Taylor. president of
the Board of Commissioners of Worces-
ter County, and Messrs. ]. Edward
White, Samuel X. Dennis and Frank
NJ. Wilson appeared before the State
Roads Commission Friday in regard
to the construction of the State road
between Snow Hill and Pocomoke City.
The commission authorized the county
Commissioners to go ahead with the
work under its supervision. Arrange
ments will be made for the purchase of
the supplies for building the road and
work will be begun as soon as the
weather permits.
The work will be started at Pocomoke
city, which is the largest town in the
county. The commission also informed
the delegation that work would be
pushed this year on the Snow Hill-Berlin
road.
Senator John Walter Smith made such
convincing argument in favor of
allowing the County Commissioners to
go ahead with the Pocomoke road that
he won them unanimously to his way of
thinking. Messrs. Taylor, Wilson Dem
mis- and White also impressed the Com
mission with the Importance of ordering
the work to be commenced at once.
Mr.. White submitted some figures
showing that on several roads con-
structed under the supervision of the
County Commissioners, the cost per
mile was $1,000 less per mile than the
lowest bid entered.
He said the lowest bid submitted on
the road between Pocomoke City and
Snow Hill was $4,000, and declared
that this was several thousand dollars
more than the work was worth.

Big Improvements For
Ocean City.

Preparations are now going on to
make some rapid and permanent improve
ments in Ocean City. The company
which owns the Atlantic and Seaside
Hotels appealed to the Baltimore, Chesa-
apeake & Atlantic Railway Company to
assist in the development of Ocean City
and upon the recommendation of Capt.
Willard Thomson, the company made a
purchase of 200 lots from the Hotel
Company. This land is above the ATTAIN
tic Hotel and will be used to develop the
company's plans for an uptown station
and the rest of the lots are below the
hotel where the fish are shipped. On this
property additional switches and a new
freight station will be erected so as to
make the handling of the big shipments
of fish much easier.
1t was part of the contract between
the railroad company and the Hotel peo-
pie that five thousand dollars of the pur-
chase money for the 200 lots, which
amounted around Sl5. 100000 should be
expended in making the necessary i'm
provements and additions to the Allan
tic Hotel so as to make it more up-to-
date hotel. These improvements will
be started at once so as to be completed
before the season opens this year.
When these improvements are made the
Atlantic Hotel will be very much more
comfortable and be in position to accom-
modate more people than ever before.
The fish business at Ocean City has
grown to such a large extent the COM
pany has been handicapped in properly
handling the output, but when the inn
provements are made as contemplated
the output can be handled with great
ease and the service will be much better
for the shippers than at present.
The building of an uptown station
will be great convenience to the cot
tagers at Ocean City. As it is now, the
walk is long one from the cottages up
the beach down to the station, and es-
pecially so in rainy weather. When the
new passenger station is built passen-
gers can land almost at their cottage
doors and it will be big incentive for
persons to build summer homes futher
up the beach. 1t is the intention of the
railroad people to do everything in their
power to develop Ocean City and better
train service will be given. The rail-
road company recognizes that Ocean
City is one of the best points for sum-
mer travel and that the investment of
a few thousand dollars at this popular
resort will be more than repaid in in
creased travel.
Besides these improvements many
new cottages are now being built at
Ocean City and everything points to a
better season than for several years
past. The boardwalks are being rebuilt
and the hotels renovated preparatory to
opening up the season about the middle
of June. -Wicomico News.
