explained them. He said the cutting
Of grass had always been done by
Baker Brothers, that little had been
done on the streets the past few years
owing to war conditions, but the bor-

provements this year than eve before.
In reference to the boardwalk he ex-
planned that owing to the present
financial standing of the borough it
was impossible to build a boardwalk
this year, but he hoped that the in
creased valuation of new buildings
would allow the work to be done pos
sibly by next year, and he assured as
soon as the borough was in the proper
condition and Council passed the
proper ordinances, he would person
