Since the wholesale death of trees by gas polsoning a few years ago the appearance of several of the streets have suffered greatly.

A swat-the-fly movement has also ‘been suggest and it will probably be incorporated in the list of campaigns proposed tor the assoclation’s activities during the vear.
