    The winter collection of ashes andrubbi sh wil l be d is cont inued on May29, ac co rd ing to an announcementmade t hi s week by George B. Suplee,Superintendent of PUblic Works.

    Th e summer collections o f t ra sh willt ake place during the following weeksand will be made on the same daysfor e ach s tr ee t as the winter schedule:

    Week of June 8 and 22, week 0' July6 and 20, week o f August 3 and 17,week of September 7 and 21. The1931-32 winter schedule will c ~ m m e n c e011 October 5 and cont inue each weekthereafter.

    A pet i tion was presented at the public heari ng last Fri day n igh t on therevised Narberth Zoning Ordinancer eque st in g t he in cl usi on o f WindsorAvenue f rom Narbe rt h to Essex andthe sections of Essex, Forest andNarberth Avenues now in a res ident ialzone, in a husiness district .

    Signaturcs representing the greatmaj or it y of ,the p roper ti es in theaffec ted sec tion were attached to thepetition. It was signed by the following: Dr . and Mrs. E. C. Town, Narh er th a nd Windsor ; F lo ra I. Mueller,117 Forest Avenue; Mr. and Mrs.C.\V. Munroe , 114 Forest Avenue; Dr.and Mrs . Romaine C. Hoffman, 201Forest Avenue; Mr. and Mrs. JohnB. Brooks, 134 North Narberth Avenue. and Mrs . Ida Merkl e, 119 Essex,Av.e.nue, and 144 North Narberth Avenue.

    I f this pet it ion is considered favorably by Counc il it w il l mean the ext ensi on of t he c en tr al bus ines s districtto and across Windsor Avenue and150 to 200 feet across Ess ex and Nar berth Avenues.

    The question o f p ro pe rt y valuesseems to be the motivating force in thencw pet it ion, one o f t he signers point-:ing out,that her home is now unsuitedfor residential purposes because' of thegrowth of the business section on the .s ide ' st re et s. \Vh il e some of the p ~ t it ione rs do not havc the idea of sell,i ng t hei r p roper ti es immedi at el y f orbusiness, they do not wish to havethei r hal lcb t icd in case they have t h ~ ,opportunity to dispose o f them advan tageonsly.
