W a We consider the Most Attractive Ocean Front offtr that has been made in years is our figure of only $19,500.00 for the Corner oi I Seventh Street and Boardwalk, measuring about 115 feet along the walk by 300 feet deep. It cannot be matched in location and price and there is urgent need at the present moment for * the improvements that can be placed upon it, such as Theatre, Stores, Apartments, Apartment Houses on Seventh street front, etc. No investment in Ocean City today can be found so attractive to individual, company or syndicate. Favorable terms. Massey Edwards Have you noticed that attractive two-family A partment H ouse on Seventh street ? The upper apartment 9 rooms and bath, the lower 6 rooms and bath and large pantry. Rental of upper apartment will produce a net 6 per cent, return on the entire investment The lower apartment can be comfortably used the year round, $8,500. Thirteen foot driveway along ocean side lor garage purposes. A fine opportunity for home and investment combined. Massey <$£ Edwards •

CITY MAKES MOVE TO A0AIN OPERATE ELECTRIC LINE

BOSYYELL WAS ON THE ALERT City Solicitor Insisted on Gas Co. Keeping: to Original Proposition When City Solicitor Boswell, at Trenton last week, found that Messrs. Mayer and Ritchie, of the City Gas Light Company, had changed the read ing of the petition of the Company that waa lo be presented to the State Public Utility Commiaslon, he at once entered decided objeetiona and mad<them change the petition as be claimed ii waa originally intended. As prepared by the gaa company, the one paragraph to which Solicitor Boswell offered objections read as follows: "Pursuant to public notice, meetings have been held at the city hall in Ocean City, at which officers of your petitioner, city officials and civic organizations were present, when the financial condition of the company and the cost and character of improvements demanded were thoroughly discussed; and as a result of these meetings resolutions were adopted by the Young Men's Progressive League, the Ocean City Taxpayers' Association, ihe Real Estate Board and the Chamber of Commerce, approving of an increase in gas rates In order to obtain extensions and improvements neces | nary to give adequate and satisfactory I gas service." Mr. Boswell required them lo change | this to the following: "Whereac. the Young Men's Pro- | greaaive League, the Taxpayer*' | League, the Real Estate Board and | the Chamber of Commerce, and also a | meeting held by represents! Ivea of the | various organisations, concluded by I resolutions that from figures submitted | by the City Gas Light Company's offlc- | ers It would be necessary for an in | crease of rate to carry on and take | care of improvements to supply the [inhabitants with adequate gas ser- | vice." As will he observed, the change [makes quite a little difference in the [presentation of the case. RESEARCH CLUB I Mriubrr* Will Ksjsz Nsslcsl Tbta Kteslsc.
