S at the Poet Office, Sea Isle City, N. J, aa aecond-claa* matter. FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1915. (SSED TO BE THE OTHER WAY ABOUT. “In glancing-over the Philadelphia news papers from day today, e that Sea Isle City, Ocean City and Stone Harbor appeal picatottsly'araong the New Jersey new*, and it is seldom tint r is airythiirv from Cape May City or Wildwood. What's tlu r with the two latter resorts anyhow? Have they been wiped e Philadelphia newspaper map? It looks that way.”—Wiu*S SCN.

will cut cornets, gradually wearing down plots of grass, and gi /• the town an unfinished and run-down tir. No matter how much money [a town spends to keep its pnblic ways in good shape, it will I never have a neat and tidy appearance unless its citizens co-operate' People should feel a positive sense of shame in throwing away ything that w.iuld make their streets look unattractive. In some places boys aud girls are trained to pick np waste paper that is flying about the streets! With a lot of ydnugsters active in that way, not merely to remove evidences of oilier people's disorder, hut not to make any of their own, it is astonishing how a

town's appearance can be transformed.

Allowing public streets to remain in a disorderly condition must hurt the reputation of a town. In these days of automobiles a town receives visitots constantly from far and near. Residents of other cities come in a critical spirit. They are quick to see e deuces of public disorder, and they bear away tha news that this or

that town is dirty.

Spring is the time for cleaning up. Let us all resolve to keep lie streets neat this season !

SPRING HOUSE CLEANING. e cleaning is a stock subject fer the newspapers' funny From their point of view it is an annual craze, irrational and ring, that in spring takes poscession of the women. They 1 their homes topsy-turvy, upset all cf the old man’s comt- lurking places, disarrange his desks rid his closets, so he

1 nothing tor a week.

Xt is of course not wholly joyful to come home and find r.ll the r out iu the ya>d. But judging by the looks of the average air, it is easy to see why he docs not care for houseIt sometimes seems as if order was distinctly unpleasant 0 the newspaper mind. Certainly two oni of three of the men it if profession maintain working placo in which the broom and it brush have only the most partial sway. The " dogjW sweeps dowu the centre of the room every week. - and around the edges, there are heaps of truck, rded material that are never disturbed, and Twhicfc dost and dirt accumulate. The average editors desk 1 similarly a mess of pigeon holes stuffed with ancicut papers, ipings and circulars of no present use to his business, but wtiich

e to assemble grime.

But at home cleanliness is still 'one of the ideals of houscThe womenwnay neglect to learn to cook, they may turn • off these housewifely cares on ignorant aud blundering servants. But t women do have all of th: old antipathy to dirt. The humit home may be inside “ ueat at wax,” as the old saying goes, e paint worn off the boards by the periodical scrubbing. One sus- • that the persistence of this feeling is one of the greatest safeUos against the spread of disease.

S'E of the chief perils ( modern society is what I call the private divorce—the di-

vorce that t* unrecorded in any hu-

court. but that exists today in

thousand* of American families. It i» the more or lw# ailent estrangement between husband and wife, the disintegration of lore, friendship or even trust between them. And I do feel that the red signal of danger should be shown to the voung wife. IN MOST INSTANCES THE HAPPINESS OF HEB MARRIED LIFE DEPENDS

UPON HER. -

Let the wife think of her hushsnd’s happimss rather than shat the neighliors aay. No man estrauu himself or conquers temptation through fear of his wife, but through lore of her. IF A WOMAN nows HER TRUST IN THE MAN SHE MARRIES THE PRINCIPLE OF 'NOBLE6SE OBLIGE" WILL FORCE HIM TO RESPOND.
