WHAT THE WILD WAVES SAY
 ALONG THE MILFORD SHORE
People Throwing Refuse on Beaches More Oil Needed on Broadway
 Prize Waltz Held Last Evening.
Special to The Farner)

l regard to the throwing of refuse along 1 the beaches and in the water where | it proves very objectionable to people | in bathing. Banana peels, tin cans, packing boxes, old paper. and refuse and garbage of all descriptions is i thrown into the water and when the l tide comes in is tossed up upon the shore in front of the waterfront cot | tages.
 | The Walnut Beach Improvement as- 1 sociation has taken steps to stop this practice and has had regulations post ed up at different places instruct 1 ing the cottagers to burn all refuse in | a wire refuse-burner that it will not be scattered along the shore. As is always the case, some people disregard regulations and continue to | dispose of their refuse in the easiest | way-by throwing it into the water. l The members of the Improvement as- sociation and others interested in the welfare and development of the beach | will take steps to see that the offend CTS are given their just desserts if it can be found out just who it is that Is throwing the stuff into the water.
 OIL ON BROADWAY There is an old proverb which says, 1 a half a loaf is better than none. Some of the residents of the beach especi- ally those living along Broadway at WalnINe beach do not agree with the proverb as it is applied to the condition of this principal thoroughfare at the resort.
 At the beginning of the season Broad way was treated to a coat of road oil to settle the dust. The oil was all right as far as it went but the trouble is that it did not go far enough.
 The oil has practically all dried up now and the result is that the dust is nearly as thick as it ever was. Any one who was on the street when the l thunder storm with its accompanying heavy wind came up suddenly Tues day afternoon will swear to this fact The dust is not only there but it is mixed in with the road oil and the re- suit is that when a high wind blows up the dust is scattered around and being carried into the cottages, ruins curtains, furniture and clothes What the street needs is another treatment of the oil which will lay the dust until the season closes in Sep tember
