CAPE MAY POINT BOROUGH HMD WORK BY OFFICIALS Judicious, Vigorous and Wise Governmeut brings About Excellent Results Oape May Point has always been more or leas annoyed by mosquitoes and until the recent reincorporation of the borough, apparently no one interested in the place ever thought of doing more than grinning or scowling and Dearing it Mayor Springer, of tne newly incorporated borough is a hustler, however, and he and other officials ooncludetl to try out some of the theories for getting rid of the pests. They interested the borough government and some summer residents "and dosed every low place which held water apt to stagnate and form a good breeding place for mosquitoes, with crude oil During the winter ^the growths on unoocupied iota were re- 1 moved in most cases, to destroy such places for shelter of mosquitoes as these migbt form. The result has surprised the most sanguine expectations They say there are no mosquitoes in Oape stay Point to-day and they have been conspicuous by their absence all the season. Another incident gives the impression that the borough if in vigorous and wise hands. The Oape May Improvement Company, a syndicate which controls much property at the Point, owns the water works and sewage disposal plant. They announced this i spring that these plants had not been ; paying and that they therefore would 1 not operate them this summer. Mayor i Springer, representing the borough, called upon the proper officer and pro- j posed to lease the works for the bor- j ough and that the borough would j operate them. The Company would not j agree to this and reiterated their determination not to operate the plants, j They desired to sell and the borough < was not in a position to buy especially J at the price demanded. Guided by the I advice of counsel the boroughjhas taken possession of the water works, has installed such machinery as is neoesssry and is running it in better shape than it has been run in several years. It

I ! is noteworthy that the streets are in < fine shape, the schools are kept strictly 1 j up to standard and every other munici- I Ipal activity shows good management A I I fire department has been organized and . • apparatus purchased and the finances ' are handled with great skill and care. I s I Collector of Taxes John J. Kromer . I being a most methodical and painstak- 1 „ | ing official. The Board of Health will 1 I see that the sewer plant is properly 1 operated if any difficulty should arise. 1 For the more uniform assessment of 1 taxes Collector Kromer, assisted by I n Mayor Springer. Borough Clerk J. W. 1 Corson and other officials have pre- . f pared a system of maps on a large < scale, placing the names of owners and ' ( values of property on the map in each . ^ case Uniformity is thus assured. It is 1 e also noteworthy tnat there has been 1 sold several lots upon which cottage or 1 g bungalows have been erected and the 1 e number of property ownerslis increas- " ing at an encouraging rate. 1 " BIRDS AND THEIR J ECONOMICAL VALUE" 1 ^ We are told by men who have made < h \llfe study of employment and en- I e vironment, that occupation leaves its £ marks on the human race. J ^ One who listened to the delightful ( 8 lecture given by Miss Laura Wood- " ward, at tne Oape May Summer School, 1 on Friday morning, could easily under; J ^ stand the scientific theory. As the < B lecturer held the specimens representing ' j the different types of familiar birds, the grace and freedom possessed by ' the original birds, seemed for the time I - transmitted to the lady, herself. Ens grossed in her subject Miss Woodward ' - carried her audience over field and a mountain, valley and dale into the ^ , depth of the woodland, familiar haunts • of all sorts and conditions of birds. I * b A comparison was made of the atti- | I I tude toward birds at the present time j s i j with that ot a generation ago. Miss j* r i Woodward showed that the enactment j * , j of laws on the part of .State Legisla- ! - tures and the interest taken in the sub- j C - j ject by the United States .Department I i | of Agriculture meant that the birds j I I must have a great economic impor- - j tance. and hence their protection. The I ^ . | necessary value of the living birds was i ^ i j explained as being fourfold, as insect f j destroyers, as weed seed destroyers, ' * 2 1 as scavengers and as destroyers of i harmful rodents. ® Miss Woodward stated that tbe r young of song birds were fed almost J i entirely upon insects, while insects as t caterpillars or winged adults furnish " J

the food of moat of our summer birds. Mounted specimens of different birds were shown to illustrate the points under consideration. The value of our winter birds as weed seed destroyers vaariwelt upon and in this connection the use of the wood sparrow in reference to tbe English sparrow usually referred to by the term was differentiated from the family of of birds called tbe sparrow which consists of many useful species. The turkey buzzard and his relatives tbe Southern Vultures, were placed in a class, useful because of their preventing contamination of the atmosphere by means of their devouring dead animal matter found in fields or in the neighborhood of habitation. The experience ofJtheJState of Pennsylvania some yean ago in setting a bounty upon the beads of hawks and owls was told in order to illustrate the value of these birds I to man The 1 088 to tbe farmers of that state in consequence of the destruction of these birds which are tbe natural ' enemies of rata and mice has been estimated to be about four million dollars.

Tbe problem is not entirely solved yet because so many ' of tbe plsyfrg are playing better than i ever before, some of Jthe clasnest are i very modi off their game and the uni certainty as to the kind of game visi- > tors can play on this moot deceptive ' course.
