The Mosquito Must Go 31 



LEONARD D. ALGAR 



I most heartily endorse the good work of exterminating the mosquito. 

 Don't let anyone whose hide is so tough that the mosquito cannot penetrate 

 it interfere with this wonderful work. 



Respectfully yours, 

 Leonard D. Algar.

Replying to your inquiry as to ray feelings and sentiments in regard to 

 the mosquito extermination appropriation, would say : 



In my opinion, to> refuse to make this appropriation for this purpose at 

 this time would be almost criminal, as I don't think that; any person will deny 

 but that the Mosquito Extermination Board has done wonderful work and 

 made great strides in this matter in the last couple, of years and now to lose 

 the benefit of all this work and the waste of the money, to say the least, is 

 poor business policy.

WALTER T. REED & CO. 



In reference to the mosquito commission of Atlantic County, I beg to 

 say that if the counties in the state of New Jersey would take up the ditching 

 of the meadows and swamps as Atlantic County has done, I believe we would 

 soon exterminate the mosquitoes, and I understand that the other counties 

 are taking the, matter up and expect to follow the steps of Atlantic County. 



If this is the case, I would say, keep up the good work, as it would 

 certainly benefit our community to have less mosquitoes. 



Yours very truly, 



Walter T.' Reed. 



THEO. W. SCHIMPF, ESQ. 



I am heartily in favor of continuing the Mosquito Extermination Com- 

 mission in Atlantic County, particularly now that other counties to the west 

 of us are beginning to co-operate in the extermination of this pest. 



Yours very truly, 



Theo. W. Schimpf. 



"COUNT ON OUR HELP," SAYS OCEAN CITY BOARD 



Chamber of Commerce, 

 Atlantic City: 

 Replying to your letter of February 23, will say that we can not recom- 

 mend too strongly the largest possible appropriation for the extermination of 

 mosquitoes in our county. In fact, we consider that the extermination of thi -> 

 pest would come next in importance to our bathing beach, which is, of course, 

 the reason for our existence and the thing on which we depend solely for the 

 entertainment of our guests. 



We shall be glad to co-operate with you in this matter in any way that 

 we possibly can. Thanking you for calling it to our attention, we are, 



Yours very truly, 

 The Ocean City Board of Trade, 

 Otis M. Townsend, 

 Secretary. 



STONE HARBOR BOARD STRONG FOR ACTION 



Chamber of Commerce, 



Atlantic City : 

 Dear Sirs : 



At the last meeting of the Stone Harbor Board of Trade your communi- 

 cation regarding the elimination of mosquitoes was read and favorably re- 

 ceived.
