The operating department of the
city's water system reported that "a
more consumers had been added to the
list in the past few weeks, taps of
mains having been made all over the
island. Where these taps were made
will be disclosed later.
In the past week the operating de-
partment turned on at the curbS the
flow of pure, clear artesian for 25
consumers. This, the chief of the field
department must consider a sur in
dex of the safe arrival of spring and
that the possibility of any further
freeze-ups has been reduced to an in
finitesimal minimum. From this date
on the turn-on requests will come
trooping in not as single file, but in
battalions.
The report of the chief of police for
the preceding week gave the city a
clean bill of civic health. No arrests
had been made for any cause, and it
must have been gratifying to the Com
missioners to know that "all was quiet
along the Potomac" The most the
police force has to contend with just
at present, it was learned on the side,
is the resistance offered by inoffensive
and inanimate piles of gravel, which
obstruct the sides of the street in va
rious localities. Failure of contrac-
tors sometimes to display danger sig
nails on these mounds of raw mate
rial has given the chief and his aides
much concern; but it is believed the
difficulty has been largely overcome
now, and all contractors notified to
observe the traffic ordinance to the
letter. Incidents like these referred to
are almost unavoidable, at times, ow-
ing tt the tremendous building activity
in evidence here at every turn.

nearly two dozen more permits the

ations and alterations and additions:

Notes From
Wildwood City Hall
By A. F. LEIBY

G&8A8A8&&&8G&8 &&aaA3&A&A&
The fourth and last meeting of the
Wildwood City Commissioners in the
month of March was called to order at
ten minutes after 2 o'clock last Tues
day afternoon, the 2Sth. Owing to a
variety of circumstances, the session
was long and tedious. Correspondence
was unusually heavy this week, and
in addition the opening and reading of
three sets of sealed proposals, covering
as many contracts for street improve
ments, consumed a very considerable
portion of the time devoted to the
meeting. 1t was nearly 4.30 before adj
journment was effected, and a sigh of
relief was in order when the Mayors
rudy gavel tapped the close of that
days business.
At the opening of the meeting, as is
always customary, the minutes of the
prior regular session were read and
approved. Then the %ponderous minute
book is passed along the legislative
table so that each Commissioner may
afix his signature to the record. This
formality complied with last Tuesday,
the Mayor announced that reports
would be the next order of business.
The revenue report invariably takes
precedence over all others, and is gen
orally looked forward to with feelings
of curiosity. When the financial tide
runs high the director of that depart
ment must feel buoyant, and when it
runs low Cor ebbs), he naturally would
be inclined to be somewhat depressed.
AS the receipts for the week previous
ran nearly up to the $4,000 mark, the
financial head could do naught else
but smile.

CLEAN UP BOAT
AS SPRING
NEARING

The coming fine days will suggest
one thing to many motorists-and that
lis to clean up the ''old boat both
inside and out. Right now seems to
bC the logical time to do this "re-new-
ing" stunt, before you will want to
use the car a lot.
When asked for suggestions the
sales manager of the Western Auto
Supply company here said:
1.-The one part of the body of your
car that suffers great deal during the
rainy season is the top. 1t looks shah
by or faded or is perhaps torn or
stretched in many places.
''In such cases where the cloth or
material is so delapidated that a neat
repair job is impossible, whole new
top recover would be the proper solu-
tion. These top receivers are not at
all expensive, and can be put on very
easily in few minutes.
"And in other cases a coat of good
top-dressing will turn the trick and the
result will be top that looks and is al
most as good as new. Top dressing, in
addition to improving the appearance
of the car, preserves the material and
renders it waterproof.
''Then, there is the body of the car.
Perhaps a good washing and subsequent
application of a polish will get the de-
sired result. But, in many cases a coat
or two of paint is needed. Painting
vOur auto is not such a complicated
procedure and can be accomplished by

MOVE IS STARTED
TO CLEAN
ROADS OF
GLASS

Motorists who have suffered with
"puncturtis' on Southern California
highways can now cheer up, for their
troubles may soon be over.
A movement instigated by the Auto
mobile Club of Southern California is
spreading rapidly throughout the coun-
ties to have roads and streets cleared
of bits of glass, nails and even thorns.
Leading in the activity of clearing
the highways of puncture material are
the Boy Scouts, ably seconded by the
school children of the state. In Pasa
dena the Boy Scouts have gathered up
IL, ,622 pieces of things which are liza
bic to pmcture tires. The group col
lecting the greatest number of bits will
be awarded a trophy by the club.
Numerous smash-ups of motor ears
have been strewing the roads with
glass from broken headlights and wind
shields. This is Il common cause of
punctures, and wherever such wrecks
occur the boys get out and sweep up
the glass.
This is in line with the general
"Safety'' work of the auto club
throughout the southern part of the
state. The movement is gaining head
way from San Diego and Imperial
counties on the south to San Luis Obs
20 county on the, north.
Every town in this part of the state
will eventually be asked to cooperate
in making the highways safe for auto
lists. Any evidence of the development
of the "puncture weed' menace will
be stamped out at once by those en-
uoUa1 in the work
