I, the Editor Of The DvsninG World:
While bathing at South Beach,
Staten Island, the other day noticed
a very large amount OF oil and tar,
heavy enough TO cut with knife, in
the water, I think the Board of
Health should look after this and stop
bathing. instead OF finding fault with
a spot on an orangeade glass.
