( VOLUME XXi NO. 44 ‘The Mount Joy Bulletin Mount Joy, Penna., March 29, 1922 $1.50 a Year in Advance ALL BULLETIN ADVERTISERS ARE ALWAYS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MEN MAIN STREET WILL" BE MACADAMIZED THE WORK WILL BE DONE THE COMING SUMMER AT AN EX. PENDITURE OF ABOUT $12,000. There was a special meeting of Mount Joy Boro Council on Monday evening at which time the necessary steps were taken to macadamize Main street from one end of the town to the other, the approximate cost of which will be about $12,000. Everyone will agree that this much traveled thoroughfare needs repair- ing—even the State Highway De- partment. Recently officials of the department made a trip of inspection over this street and then made the following suggestion. The state will macadamize the street, to a width of eighteen feet and make all ordinary repairs that will be required in con- junction with the work, which is es- timated to cost $12,000, if the boro will pay ten percent. of said cost or $1,200. The matter was taken up with So- licitor Jno. A. Coyle, who stated that when the State took over the turn- pike, it did not take that portion of | the pike in Mount Joy Boro, therefore it is up to the boro to see that it is kept in shape. Burgess Bachman and all the Coun- | cilmen present, Messrs. Fellenbaum, Zeller, Ream and Hauer unanimously agreed that the State’s proposition was a good one and the resolution offered to that effect passed unani- mously. The portion of Main street to be repaired is one and two-tenths of a mile in length. The surface will be removed and a good base with a modern macadam surface will take its place. The cost to the boro will be a trifle more than it would cost to give this street a good coat of oil and tr rock ene tl~)- CR—eeee MT.

FLAMES DAMAGE WELL KNOWN CHICKIES PARK A serious forest fire raged on Chickies Hill Sunday afternoon and caused considerable damage before it was brought under control. The flames had their origin in the hollow on the south side of the park, where the dry grass was ignited from some unknown cause. The flames leaped rapidly up the side of the hill into the park. Many chestnut trees that had been killed by the blight fell an easy prey to the flames and were consumed while other live trees were badly damaged by the flames. The fire ate its way into the park, where the tall grass was consumated like paper. The flames communicated with the small round observatory building that stood at the point of the park just over the rock. This building was entirely consumed also a num- ber of tables and”benches that were in the path of the flames. Word was sent to Columbia of the fire and Tuf- The remains were interred at Deo- date.
