BEAUTIFYING SOCIETY
Sir, —As a visitor to your town I can see dozens of. places which could be beautified with not a very great deal of trouble. Why not a Beautifying Society to help hide those ugly corners at the' Hillcrest approach, the waterfront just past the Strand; the bleak foreshore at the Heads approach;, the rock backgrounds of Commerce Street. A little plot or two, the setting of some - permanent creepers andi the job isiriore or less done. II notice on my walks about your Borough that you have many excellent gardeners here. Why not enlist their interest to form this Society? lit would help the town more than I can tell you, for possibly you who live here all the time have become oblivious ito some of the ugly spots which a visitor notes immediately. May I hope that next time I visit your little town there will be a flourishing Beautifying Society established, do* ing useful and important work in all pants of the Borough. Yours etc., ADVANCEMENT.
