CITY HALL BLOCK WILDWOOD, N. J. j ■ ; I, , I, J

WILDWOOD The contract for the building of the i boardwalk along Beach avenuo from Schellenger to Montgomery avenues, I was awarded today by the city commissioners toDber and Woolso'n, of 1 Wildwood, the lowest of three bidders for $44,425.12. The other bids submitted were Craythorn and Nickerson of Wildwood, $45,276.00 and Edward S. Graham, Philadelphia, $53,392.00. The section of the walk to be built is 2800 feet in length and 40 feet in width, connecting at Schellenger avenue with the walk in the first ward, which parallels the ocean along Beach avenue a distance of nine squares to Juniper avenue where it connects with the North Wildwood walk. The building of this new sector along Beach avenue will eliminate "the 'ong turn inland at Schellenger avenue so familiar to the thousands who traversed it during the summer time. After the building of this sector the turn inland will be at Montgomery' avenue, eight squares, south of where it origfajilly was. At each street enchdduble approaches, 10 feet in width, wiH be constructed. The decking and joists of the new walk are to be of cypress. Galvanized iron pipes' similar in .height and other dimensions will be used for the railings. ' The actual construction wodj^ on this job will not begin for at least 40 on account of court litigation. John T. Byrne and Charles L. Heinle, twef taxpayers obtained a writ of certiorari, asking the Supreme Court tojwvifw the advertisement for the bid! on this netv boardwalk. Commissioner of, Streets, F. E.J

Smith, says "he believes jt will take j at least that long for the court to re- I view the case aiul, give a decision." Public sentiment is overwhelming in favor of getting the job underway a immediately and sidestepping any | further legal entanglements. The sector of the walk to be rebuilt will replace the old boardwalk I 1 now lyiijg in a half demolished state 1 1 along Atlantic avenue, two squares i westward of the new line. The debris j , .and Riling will be Cleared away and 1 ( the avenue paved and graded when ; the jjaurts have handed down a decis- j | - jorri Early last month, Gilbert H. , Blaker, one of the -litigants in these , legal controversies between the ma- j | jority Commissions Oliver Bright and j ' Frank E. Smith and the Progressive ; , League, withdrew his case from the j Court of Errors and Appeals. • His j s action made it possible for the work 1 to proceed as far as it has. The with drawal or culmination of the other suits will . expedite the municipal building program. Thomas Cox, a laborer, employed by Frank Matters* a locijl contractor, on | a sewer job on Park Boulevard, was j 1 seriously injured yesterday when John j Lewis of .Garfield av#r.-,-.e, struck him J ■ oh the back of the head with a heavy j , maul. When Lewis was arrested he i told the officer it was an accident. I I This is partly true and the facts of \ the case' bear it out. Cox, who is a ! '. married man, -with a large family and j considered a good worker by his em- ■ ploy'er and a peaceful 'man by his. i neighbors, was digging in the ditqh, . and his employer was standing by his | * side. Lewis was outside of the ex- j , cavation, mauling Not liking his ! . Work Mattera ordered hjm to get a I shovel and come into the ditclu In- ' g stead of doing so Lewis became infur- j I jated and threw the/binui at Mattera | I who dodged it and it, struck Cox, I I I knocking him unconscious and. frac- 1 | taring his skull. Not satisfied with j 1 1 this, Lewis . seized an axe to strike I | Mattera, but fellow-workmen took it | from him. Co'x was rushed to the j 1 hospital where he how is. | Squire B. C.

ADVISES EMPLOYEES TO PROTECT THEIR LIVES Personal letters, arc being sent to " all engineers, firemen and trainmen, on the .Division of the i Pennsylvania Railroad; urging upon them stricter observance of safety : rules in the interest of -protecting their own lives. " ' • "During the past year," says a letter to the engineers, "there have been fa number of Train Service employes ' | killed and injured, included in which 1 , category are engineers and firemen. ! . The causes ascribed for the casualties : I vary, but a careful study indicates \f ' i that some of the employes were killed ! and injured due to the failure to pb- ' serve "rules promulgated for . their "" > I protection and the indulgence in un- • Nafe practices. c J ' "Employes^ particularly inexperiI enced men, should be continually warned of the necessity pf protecting I themselves. It is desired that every ftffort be made to minimize casualties - to engineers, firemen and other em- • e ployes, anil your earnest co-operation fi ' is urgently requested."(J "Success in agriculture is measur* — . ed not so very much "by tije^Tertility |. of the soil, or the kindness of Nature P or by environment, as it is . by the ideals, the training and the initiative ' ,f rf the farmer himself." i Two things about this farming job. .... that are worth thinking about— every e farmer is pretty much his own boss 5.
