In s timely end pointed ali•orial from the Philadelphia Record on the wayside market, which will be found in another column on this page, it will be seen that whatever may be the fans of the cam as concerns Cape May County wayside stands, a survey made by rW Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station shows that almost one-fourth of the produce said on wayside stands in that State is purchased from city ccrnmimion merchants, and more than wne-fourth of it is not raised by the fanners who ofier it tor sale. This is where the dishonesty cocncs in. The produce is not as ; the customer is ded, a deception which will be found out and which does tat injury’ to the honest market man who either raise* all of the produce be ofiei* for sale or elae buys it troen rearby farmers

who du raise it.

We hope Cape May County n make a better thowing than the Maryland fanners, not only *hat the dry folks may get genuine fresh fruits and vegetables, but that the reputation of our farmers for honest dealing may become so well established that it will attract buyers from all nearby dries who may be passing

rough our county.

UWDKR THE gffV The Worcester Electric Light Company, of Worcester, Maas., anno-mets that in October it will pass back to its customers exseat net profits of $136,U00 in the form of a 50 per cent. disaaiM on bills. , Nearly 45,000 bilk will bear discount and practically every family will share in what is in effect a customer's dividend. The dry of Worcester will profit about $10,300. The company's action was made by its immense profits, after paying all fixed charges and paying a 30 per cent, dividend, titowed a balance of

This looks like good business. Public utility corporations have changed tactics considerably in the last decide. No longer do they follow the “public be damned"

PRAISE ns GOOD Yanos nr youi tows Sea Isle City is a good town

in which to live.

It has many good points which are worth while considering when

home or place

of permanent residence. These have been enumerated so often in

that it is unneces-

sary to repeat them here. It is not a perfect town. There such place. It has yrt to

a number of things for which they deserve commendation and which all go to make Sea Isle a better place in which to live. Give them credit for these things. Tell them to their faces that you think they have done a number of good things and then in a constructive way present the things you think should be done, learn why they are not done, what are 1 the obstacles in the way, and if • surmountable, urge that they be overcome and the changes and improvements be made. Panning officials will accomplish little. If they arc beyond hope throw them cut of office, but if they are amenable to reason and are making an honest effort to do, words of commendation and kindly criticism will not only be welcomed but will ac-

complish much.

Attend the Commissioners' meetings occasionally, keep tabs on what they ere doing, and you will be better qualified to critidxe. It may be trite, but there is much truth in the saying that a town it what you make it. Therefore if we want Sea Isle ro be a better town, let us conrider carefully the things that are needed and go persistently after them until they are acquired, but let A remember that there' is a limit to all things human and not attempt the impossible. Instead bring forward each larger thing as we increase in papulation and financial resources. Praise the good things in Sea lale Gty and your vision will be made dearer to see rise things that are needed and your judgment made sounder on how to obtain

those things.
