at home with his wife. Mr.. Nuss has
been engaged in war work for the past

Some years ago, 1918 perhaps, when
Aviator Reid got in trouble here with
his flying machine in a fall to the
ground, someone said that possibly
Bill Nuss could fix the machine. Bill
Nuss did fix the machine, and his
knowledge comes in handy now for the
Government. Sometime ago during

Mr.. Nuss was SEM for and came to

City Hall ~
Accounts of the Last Two Meetings OF the City Com
missioners. The Pay Roll of the City Reaches
Almost $50, 900 Annually
New Boardwalk Amusements Under Consideration

Austin appeared before the commits
sioners to protest the payment OF a
year.old water bill against Hunt and
Austin's Avenue theatre In b sum
of $14.33. The leakage occurred while
the theatre was not in use by the ten
ants. Some public meetings were held
In it, however, and the water in dispute
got through the meters somehow, as
Mr.. Hendee said 'meters wont lie"
Action on this protest was deferred,
pending the return Of MI. Ryan, when
the thing will be rehashed once more.
A communication from Mrs. Carrie
Haughey was next read, asking that
the war saving stamp booth which
stood on the boardwalk at the Arcade
approach during the summer be taken
to Burk and Pacific q for use in
the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign.
The request was granted and it has
been hanled by the city team to the
place designated. John Taylor, who
had many years. experience in legisla-
tive proceedings at Anglesea, was a
silent but interested spectator at the
meeting. City Engineer Harry Weir
dropped into to say ''howdy" to every
body and gave notice of his transfer
from Camp Meade to a camp in Okla
homa where he will fill the position of
an instructor in engineering tactics I'M
der the title of captain. When ad-
journment was had at 2.25-preciseIy
"on the dot"-the mayor felicitated all
present on the celebrity with which the
business of the afternoon was dispatch
ed. So rapidly did one event tread on
another's heels that the reporter was
compelled to acqIiesce in the state
ment that "matters had been expedi-
ted in record-bresking time" 1t was
in truth the shortest session ofthe year.
Complaint having been made to Com
missioner Hendee thatCity Clerk White
sell manifested a di~sinclination to per-
NIT citizens to see the minute book,
which is the peoples property and
which they have a right TO see and
examine at any time, the former re-
manned long enough yesterday after
the meeting to insist on the city clerk
producing the information desired by
the citizens and taxpayers Of Wildwood
regarding salaries paid to their public
servants. The people have q right &c
know what these sums are; and
right to see every letter, bill and item
that may be presented to the commits
sioners from time to time. Once when
the city clerk was asked to show the
minute book, he failed to do SO, giving
us an excuse that the minutes of q pre-
vious meeting had not yet been posted
And that seeker for knowledge still
thirsteth so see the book. Polite and
obliging service is expected from pub
lie officials, and it should not be neces'
sary for anyone to be made to feel that
he is intrnding If he asks to see the
city minute book or seeks for informa'
ton on any point concerning the pub
lie veal. As fast as Mr.. Hendee and
his clerk picked out the salary items
from off the leaves Of the minute book,
the reporter scrawled them down and
then "beat it." @OA@

mn TO the big oak table and leaning

yana cigar. He said he "wanted to
smoke one on the mayor" And ne
did; and was soon contributing his am-
pie share to the encircling wreaths of
tobacco smoke which float thickly thru
the chamber at almost every weekly
meeting. Joe Sweet called, not to
.'scrapu as some feared, but to receive
instead from city commissioners the
credentials asked for at a previous
meeting, and were "signed, sealed n
deliveredn to him. Some Wildwood
inhabitants are Of the opinion that
Joe Sweet has about as much chance
of recovering possession of that $500
