CARS ON THE new
BRIDGE next Week

Court Difficulty With
Railroad Co.iS Adjusted
WHO HAS USE
FOR OLD BRIDGE

John F. Neary appeared before the
Levy Court today in answer to a de-
mand that he explain why the cars of
the Wilmington and Philadelphia
Traction Company are not being
operated on the new River Front
bridge.
Mr.. Neary explained that the trou-
BILE between the traction company
and the railroad company over the
laying of a cross-over at Fourth and
Church streets had been settled, that
the railroad company would do the
work at once and that cars will be
operated permanently on the bridge
inside OF a week Mr.. Neary said the
railroad company did not want to
agree to let the traction company
operate its line over its tracks at
grade, but had finally consented TO
the plan.
Mr.. Neary said the traction COM
pany will remove the bridge over the
Brandywine at Sixteenth street and
will give the structure to the county,
city or any body who wants it. The

wise for it to accept the bridge.

BOOST LIVING COST
At SUMMIT CAMP
Tax Rate of SIS on Cottages
and So on Garages is
Announced
MANY CAMPERS
IN THE GROVE

At a recent meeting Of the board of
trustees OF Brandywine Summit Camp
it was decided to set the tax rate on
each cottage and bungalow at the
camp at S5 and on each stable and
garage 50. This decision was found
necessary by the trustees owing to the
fact that so many Improvements have
been made to the camp grounds, etc,
and il is pointed out how cottagers
get the benefit of these improvements
along with janitor service, water
rents, garbage collected. pumps kept
in order. etc. from July until
September 1.
In view of the fact that the rates at
Chester Heights camp are triple those
imposed by Brandywine Summit camp
and owning to the fact that more
families move out to the camp earlier
each year, thus making the demands
upon the trustees greater, the recent
change in the tax rate is considered
q necessity.
Services are conducted at the camp
each Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
Last Sunday the service was conduct
ed by the Rev. e. H. Collins. pastor
of Madeley Church. About SO voices
constituted the choir. Mrs. Howard
Boyer, Of Philadelphia, sang solo
Harry j. Guthrie conducted the music.
Service on next Sunday afternoon will
be conducted by the Rev. Vaughan S.
Collins. pastor Of S. Paul's church.
Members of St. Paurs choir will as
sist the camp choir.
