T.. Y. j. Richmond has recently
completed building house at the
Mill road in the BarGainto~n sec

material that was thrown away
from other buildings. Even bricks

carried to the site of The buildinG
where they were later converted
into a chimney.

be unique, viii be boarded up. Mr.
Richmond and his son expect to

Mr. Richmond says the house is
one that will encourage people of
small means to construct their own
homes. The house is not one for
those who can go into the realty
market for their building, but ra-
Their for those of the laboring class
who are forced TO pay rent.

Property Owners
Seek New Street

ImprOved--COuncilmen
VIII Investigate.

A move has been started by prop
erty owners along Risley's alley
which extends from Washington
aVenue to West Jersey avenue, a
short distance from Main street,
going north, to have that route of
travel improved.
A number Of property owners, it
is claimed, have declared that they
would give enough ground to make
the alley into fifteen or eighteen
foot street. An old building, one
time the Pleasantville Livery sta
BILE, will, its owners have said, be
taken down if any action toward
making the highway a street is
taken.
At the present time the alley is
a short cut for automobile drivers
who desire to turn around without
blocking traffic on the Main street.
II is also used by many trucks and
automobiles whose drivers have
business with the coal and lumber
company or at the freight Offices

of New notwithstanding
Traffic-BOulevard Lights.

Mainland highway improvement
received much attention at the
hands of the Freeholders at their
meeting Wednesday. A very ia
| vorable price was obtained on the

progress in the face of obstacles
in obtaining rights of way for Wild
cning New road. 1t is planned to
widen New road to 60 feet between
White Horse pike and Harding
highway, and to so feet between
Harding highway and Zion road.
Some property owners are holding
out for high prices.
The Freeholders gave permit
to the Atlantic County Water Co.
to open New road and lay pipes
between Woodland avenue, Pleas
antville, and White Horse pike.
The company is required to give a
bond of $4,000 to safeguard the
public during the construction and
