one of their favorite shippers
During the past week the moving pic
xure enterprises along the Boardwalk
have been greatly benefited, as the even
inEs have been somewhat cool for open
air entertainment
A new musical feature that Is OF IN
terest TO both local residents and visitors

certs rendered by the Munlclpal band,

Boulevard to AbsecOn.
\ much discussed Improvement that
will doubtless soon be a reality will be
the construction of a new automobile
boulevard directly connecting Atlantic
City and Absecon, thus affordtng a more
iirect entry for motorists from New fork

the distance about four miles between
: these points The necessity Of crossing
several dangerous grade railroad cross
- fngs would thus be avoided. and in view
of the fact that several influential men
Of Philadelphia and Atlantic City are
interested in the construction OF this
boulevard its completion seems more than
possible within a short time
