i SOME NEWS ' ; t j ANDCOMMENT : BREEZY OPINIONS AND NEWS ; Items Gathered bj Star aid 1 1 Ware Reporters aid Conmeit J oi Cirreit Events r Speaking of the Board of Trade and ' 1 its work, here'* an instance. Last season County Prosecutor E. W. Lloyd, ' as chairman of the base ball commit- ^ ■ tee, gave more time to furnishing base ball and attending to its details than to his own business. Ever try anything of the kind? Well, you ought to Just once. It would do you good. f Lloyd worked for nothing, found bim- ' self, paid $60 out of his own roll and 1 EARNED the'glory of having kept tne c Oape May ball team afoot for the en- ? tire season, .but— he didn't get even ^ that. The average man merely concluded that it all just happened with- ' out trouble to anybody. This season Lloyd is sticking to it again, but bas . c attached Charles Brownmiller, secre- j j tary of the Board of Trade, with him, I and Brownmiller is full of determina- 1 J tion when^he attempts thingB. Though jc the work has been divided this year | 1 - there has been plenty of it for both men and both are EARNING the glory !•> of keeping base ball going and may re- | 1 ceive due credit The prospects are ' some what better for avoiding a deficit 1 this year and a 'great article of ball, ' with more numerous games, is being c served up. The attitude of Lloyd and c Brownmiller in their .self sacrificing ' efforts to help the resort is the attitude c of the members of the Board of Trade 1 , in all matters which it has taken up. 1 i If all business men and property owners { | would unite in this spirit as members of the J Board of Trade nothing could hinder Cape May's rapid advancement, (•(•w Dr. Alexander Marcy's suggestion * before the State Medical Society, at r Cape May, that in manv cases very | 1 small children are being sent ;to school by parents to be nd of their care for i several hours each day, and that these < children would much better be in the i playground than in I be school room \ subjected .to mental strain, is worth i considering by pedagogues and boards i of education. The doctor emphasizes 1 1 f the need of fresh air and out door ex- 1 1 r ercise for these little ones. It subject to instruction, it should be on the lines j of kindergarten work, he says. Nature requires that these little ones j ' . shall have the unrestrained use of their I i limbs and that they be permitted to < romp and play at their heart's desire. This is necessary for the natural and healthful development of their bodies. I It is a question whether. we are not ' developing the brain at the expense of, ' ■ the body in our primary grades, turn- 1 I ing out precocious but physically weakened boys and girls. . by the public school forcing system. Dr. Marcy has , sounded a timely warning. —Camden , Post Telegram. , The Doctor also suggested that vacs- j | tions should he longer, beginning June ] 1st, and ending September 1st. | " » • I] The Atlantic City Press advises that the All an tier County Board of Free- ' holders -should carefully "consider 1 the project before taking action one ' way or the other," referring to a pro- 1 posed bridge from Somer's Point to | Beesley's Point, spanning the Great ' Egg Harbor River and linking Atlantic and Oape May Counties. Reading ' "between the lines" in an article pub- 1 lisbed by the "Press" concerning this 1 matter, it seen s to fear "that such a j bridge would divert considerable New York and Philadelphia automobile * travel from Atlantic City into Cape May and other southern resorts besides c attracting many Atlantic City people , to vurburan homes in the unimproved wastes of Oape May County." The * Bridge in question would be nec£Moa£r r

to the carrying out of the proposed Ocean Boulevard projectCfor a grand from Bay Head to Oape May. admission practically made by the "Press" that Atlantic Oit> fears the attractions ot Oape May and the southern resorts so much that she would like to maintain a barrier to prevent .automobiles from reaching them, is interesting and amusing. The other admission that Atlantic .Oity people can be held at home and prevented from settling in the alleged "unimproved wastes" of Cape May County, only by the maintenance of this barrier is'illuminative. ^Fear is alan element in every failure and Atlantic must be on the toboggan for fair to give expression to such senti- « « • The pessimistic newspapers are re • gating their readers with dire stories of expensive living, and one Philadelphia reporter has figured it out that million dollars a week has been added to the cost of living in that city in a year. A comparative table for three years past is printed, which show increases in prices for staple articles that might warrant the statement of a million dollars a week addition to | cost, Dut the quotations are not reliaj ble. The prices given for meats are probably exacted from wealthy purchasers on the plea that the beef and mutton are choice, but the fact is the same may be purchased from the aver- , age retail dealer at the prices that j prevailed a year ago. The advertise- ' menta of the energetic and enterprising dealers in food supplies of all kinds will make clear that the fancy prices demanded of those who pay without question in "high toned" markets do not generally prevail. There is no denying that the cost of living for the past two or three years has been high, and tne responsibility for it is largely due to the storage system and the ac tion of the middlemen. Where the consumer is in touch with the producer the prices of butter, eggs and vegetables are reasonable, and nothing like figures demanded in the fancy marketa. —Camden Courier « m 9 Still more summons have been issued under the mercantile tax ordinance to delinquents in the matter of paying mercantile license'and other certiorari, will be asked for, to restrain .the city the matter of applying compulsory to collect the fees until the court has passed upon the legality of the ordinance.

In this regatta the Sea Iale City boats will be eligible. Here again the same classes of boats will race, and once again The Inquirer will be there with p'izea for the winners aod second hosts in all the races. Then will come the grand finale— the regatta for the boats |whir.h won first and second places in the three different regattas as above described. Still another set of prizes is given by The Inquirer for the boat getting first an second places in these final races. The time and place for the holding of this final event will be decided upon at a meeting of commodores to be held at The Inquirer office next Monday morning, at 11 o'clock.
