HOTEL CAPE i AY [ BOWOWfi IS VERY POPULAR Pool, Billiard and Tennis Have Many Devotees and Skilful 1 Players Develop The management of Hotel Cape May : have made a regular colony around the ot the hotel to seek the luxury of summer pastime. Everything that is 1 necessary for the enjoyment of 'he gueate and the passing of a number of pleasant hours has been arranged. From morning till night every desire may be satiated within the hotel's grounds. The bowling alieys which have Just been fitted out -are not only new but smooth, tree, and level. perfect ball sent down one of these al-T j leys' is sure to bring down a strike or spare, which ever the case may be. . The gue6ts of the hotel und many outsiders have found these alleys a great source of healthful pleasure and etnusei merit and at all times keep the balls : re?. unking with the thunderlike roll of • j the play. In the mornihg before a j bath the lovers of the sport roll a ; game to get themselves in trim for ! i he vigors of the morning surf and : *un 1 here are many skillful bowlers | j wh j take advantage of the alley s and I the scores which are made are excepj tionaliy goodgame and high. Every j game known to the devotees of this st ort can be seeu expertly rolled by | the Cape May enthusiasts. Spares, i strikes, tens arc made with unusual | frequency in duck pins, candlcjnns, j ten pins and cocked bat. The men are j not the. only ones who indulge in this j sport as ladies atd children are Lecom- | ing as adept as the gentlemen. The | children and ladies usually confine tnemselves to the light weight balls and small pins of the game of I ' duhks." This is not true with all, I however, as many of them seem to enjoy the greater physical exertion which cornea from the handling of the ten pin bells. This may account to some | extent for the muscular build pf some I of our youngsters. j Another adjunct to the lovers of ! high class sport is the pool and ; billiard room. This room is always filled with experts who" can cut, English. draw ,and masse a ball with the skill of a professional. One of the lady guests of the hotel who is beco^il good pool player, is Miss Perry. I This young lady is becoming very skii[ full under the proficient teaching of Professor Gordohu. j Dr. R. Walter Starr every- evening takes a rest and a little enjovment by playing a little friendly game of pool I with other gentlemen who are interi ested in this game. A quartette who i l e seen playing pool [with great , determination is Mr. S. A. McFetridge, F. Lucas Mr. S. H. Hackett I and Mr. B. S. Bunn. These gentlemen j take a great deal of pleasure and excitement out of it. These games I b een going on regularly for over | a month and in that time players have | develop td quite a proficiency with the . ! Mr. Frank Nirudlinger is another I ; i cottager who regularly takes a shot at | j the ivory balls. In fact he may be i j seen almost any afternoon knocking I the balls abound the table. Beside all j these iDdoor sports the Hotel Cape 1 j have marked out, rolled down : and made two of the finest tennis;1 courts in Cape May. These courts have | - j become so popular that it has become j ] for the management to add a j more. The new courts have been ' I out and will very soon be ready ' 1 ; use. This will eliminate the neces- 1 sity of waiting until a court is idle. [ ! j The number of young ladies and gee- ' ' j tlewen who every day use these Is i very lar„.; and a great deal of enjoy- t : ment is received from them. Some of i the young people who at all times en- • j joy a s-t at this exhilarating exercise j Cyral H>pburn,.Earl Viana, Frauk DeSilver, "E die" Barrett and fcarl Hepburn. Miss Dorothy Buck, Miss I Mildred Buck. Miss Ethel Manie Halai d Miss Bertinia Halloweil. : I are about tne most graceful players !« ' on these courts. 1 c Tom Gay, James Gay, Walter Starr jr and Miss Marie Starr often make a | J set of interesting doubles. 1 Frank Beeboter, E. Edwards and E. 1 , Griffith are about the n u-t profi- ' , cient players on the courts. Beside | c ] legulars. many others of the N I folks try- their skill at this fas- ) | cinating game. After a day spent in tne athletic I pursuits the guests find relief for/ their tired muscles and echi-ig backs' the delightful concerts which are i given by the hotel orchestra. Sitting c on the veranda, this colony, after a C day's amusement, in the cool evening ( listening to jfie strains of music j wafted through the windows, one is •wholly captivated by the hotel and the ' clean healthful life and atmosphere of c Cape May. t — 1 jj»,

! A final Newspaper Discusses Present Coaditieas ltd Bake Safgestiens ' The New York Tribune says : ® " Educate. a and parents are renewthe high school curriculum, having 8 for their guiding maxim: "A place ® for everything and everything in ita place." An exoellent principle it is, , • especially deserving of application to B the task of high school education in 8 these ijay a. when impulsive apostlei of "liberal education" are trying to find y a place tor everything in a high school ortalogue without concerning them - selve8"very seriously overt the vexar tious problem of ^putting I courses in prqper places. The appeal must be " heeded, not simply for the sake of the young people wtio are seeking an eduj cation, but also in order to check the 1 ' wholesale desertion of city high ' schools, which is disquieting teachers 1 and school boards all over tbe coflntry. * Plainly written on the face of enrellj ment statistics is the warning that un- 1 i less misfit courses are dropped the j J I magnificent establishments adorning ] the high school systems of a hundred large American .municipalities may 1 aoon be tenanted only by the relatively ' few pupils who wish to prepare for 1 college For the fact is that the orj dinary high school, as now ordered, is ' nothing more than a preparatory school 1 ^ for children' of parents in [modestlcir- ' " cumstances. and hence can neither attract nor benefit the vast majority of ' city children, who are compelled to get ] [jail their secondary education v^ithin the briel span between graduauou 1 j, from the grammar school and the hour when they must "hustle for a job." Profesor David Bnedden, of Teachers i College, Columbia University, -bring# j i together some facts in the current ■ ; "Charities and the Commons" which i ; show that these fears and criticisms ] are not empty. Of tbe 742,000 pupils in the public high schools ol Amernan i cities about 43 per cent are in the first year and 26 per cent in the second ; in ! short, there are less than half as many ; pupils in the two upper grades as in ! ! the two lower ones. In New York city ; J tbe situation is still worse. Last June there were 26,221 pupils jn our high [ schools, one-half of whom were in the ' first year and more than one-quarter in ' the second. .Out of a total enrolment ' of 33,387 during [the same school year ' only 1,713 pupils were graduated. The 1 ' testimony of parents and pupils alike 1 I explains this desertion by the charac ^ ■ ter of the studies and the pupils' ur- r > gent call -to become wage earners after - the sixteenth birthday. What a pity 1 j that the public schools in general have ( ; j nothing to offer children from fourI teen to sixteen years ol ages save ^ j course's required, and ofteu mapped out I in detail, by college professors bent ' | wholly upon improving tbe breed of 1 j college freshmen ! Greek. Latin, al1 gebra, botany and other required preparatory courses are doubtless well < suited to the needs of young people i j wishing to go to.college and having the i | means to gratify that wish, but the : boy who has made up his mind to en- 1 ter a business office, factory or shop as i soon as he can find an employer will- | ing to pay him a living wage, wants ■ ! and need something radically different. ' And the sooner school boards recognize this the better for pupils whose price- i | less years are being flittered away in t sorting tag ends of intellectual tinsel ; I the better, too, for taxpayers, who are maintaining at enormous expense schools whose lavish equipment benei fits only the favored few. 1 At this season, when plans for the j next school year are being drawn, I E might not something be done for the j ordinary h'Kh school pupils? SEARING THE CENTURY MARK ; ! f Cape May boasts of having within * ! borders, several persons who are « I on the last lap of years toward the t 1 century mark. Some resident, rme 6 ' non-resident. Carroll Villa is enter- s taining two of them. Miss Eliza F ' Lafferty, of Philadelphia, in her ninety- I ■j fifth year and George S. Mot ton. a <1 , retired business man of Baltimore, : who reached his 90th birthday Mon- a day, 13th inst. "Yesr-uinety years is a good long journey," he said, "and I feel pretty good, except that my feet" ] are not quite so active as my head." c j Tne mother of Dr. A. L. Leach, Col. d | Granville Leacb, and Frank Willing •' j Leach, is nearing her 91st birthday. . y j Mrs. Cummings, mothei of W. L. Cummings, the builder and of E.

"It lookedjike old times." was tl* popular way of expressing it. but, aa a matter of fact the "old"* times" were Thot one) two. thr-'e, in cmnparttoft with it. There are seidobi larger crowds here than were in evidence Sat- * urday evening and yesterday;. Every , place of entertainment was crowded ' j Saturday evening and tbe boardwalk and streets were full of people. i. One of the most brilliant ball room scenes ever seen- here was visible at the Hotel Cape May, at the full dress dance given Saturday evening. Many rich and rare gems adorned rich gowna and the music was of a character to to cans- tbe nu mere us dances to float dreamily on the waves of melody, forgetfol of mundane^ things, forGordohn's orchestra is one of the finest which ever came to Cape May At the Stockton the ball room Was crowded and the scene a very inspiring one. The delightful barn dance "was""" given and participated in by a large number. The apparently careless and rhythmic swing in this dance is fascinatingly interesting to spectators as well to dancers. The Stockton was-a scene of life and gaiety every where. The Lafayette also had its ball and ita crowd and there was lots of movement the gay crowd on its porches and in the lobby and ball room. The city's music pavilion was Crowded ell the evening with those who deliglit in Wheelock's band music. Whatever, may be occurring at other resorts Cape May is in the fuR, swing of a big season..

Mrs. Kennedy with 'her friend, Mrs^ Sarah Hood, who is a fellow guest at the Carrol Villa, had started for the Hotel Cape May to visit some friends. On arriving at the hotel the ladies started to walk from the car to the pavement, when Mrs. Kennedy stepping in some soft sand was thrown heavily to the ground, causing a compound fracture of the semur. She was taken to her where Dr. James Mecray and Dr. Neilsou made her as comfortable us possible, until Sunday when she was taken to Cooper's Hospital, Camden. Mrs. Kennedy is a very noble and altogether charming woman, who has a host of friends who will be orry to hear of her misfortune. A DISTINGUISHED SCIENTIST.
