CAPE MAY IS LAUDED NORTH AMERICAN'S LETTER Some Deooted Friend of Cape May describes its numerous chances nf nil seasons The Philadelphia North American published the following interesting article last Sunday evidently from the pen of an earnest friend of Oape May : "The delightful Indian summer weather of the past week or two has attracted visitors to Oape May who never before have visited tbia famous old resort dunng the fall and winter months. And they have found much to please and luterest them. Rejoicing in a climate which is remarkable the year around, Cape Mas is fast— being recognized, not only as one of the coolest of the seaside resorts during the summer season, but as one cf the warmest places on the New Jersey coast during the winter months. Cjreful weather observers who have watched climatic changes during the past ten or fifteen years are of the opinion that the course of the gulf stream has altered during that period ia now closer to Cape May. than to any other resort on the Atiantic seaboard north of Florida. Its tropic warmed current gives to Cape May a winter temperature which, in bright weather, j approaches that of the California coast- The weather today has been balmy, and one felt almost like don- j uing summer flannels. Even the severe ■ northeaster has altered the tempera- j : tur , but little, and the winter months . bid fair to bring to this favored spot a j most delightful atmosphere wherein | 1 visitors raay enjoy the varied pleasures afforded by Cape May's many- < aided life 1 i HAS WONDERFUL BEACH. j It brings pew life to stroll on Cape 1 1 May's wonderful beach, the widest and j hardest on thp Atlantic coast, which i ' stretches in front of the city for nearly ; ' six mnes, from Cold Spring Inlet, ' _ where the government is constructing I * a system of jetties, in connection [ i with the harbor of refuge, to Cape j 1 May Point, marking th* entrance to I the Delaware River. I

The geographical position of Cape I May, at the southernmost extremity ' of New Jerset. facing southwest and ' washed by the waves of the ocean and I the currents of the Delaware, causes a < constant making of oeach front, shelv- I ing geiJy from "the shore line to deep ' water. This insures absolutely safe ' bathing, which, in summertime, is one ' ■of the chief pleasures of the resort ! ' One may walk, drive, motor or ride ' upon this atrrnd almost from one end j ' of it in the other, as upon a nard, 1 well made roadway, ihe resilient sand i insuring pleasure to pedestrian and ! rider alike. ' A wise provision of the ! city government has limited the ex- 1 tent to which piers may be built, so ' that the beach is practically unobstructed. Then, too, one finds some of the finest driving and motoring roads ' in tHp state radiating on the landward aide of Cape May island. These well made and well kept highways extend 1 through prosperous farm lands, which c here encroach closely upon the city ' limits, to the shore resorts abbve ; the 1 little townB which dot the banks of * Delaware Bay and the Delaware River, 1 and further oaward up to Philadelphia ' and the north. The close proximity of the agricul- ' tural sections of South Jersey to Cape * May insures to the visitor to that re- * aort an abundanee of fresh vegetables c in season, for in Oape May the trucker, 8 whose fields lie just a stone's throw beyond the city, finds a ready market J for his entire crop, which is delivered t almost to the table within a few hours b after it has been picked. DEVELOPED FROM VILLAGE * What was once, in the early daya, «

I a mere fishermen's village, baa, t through improvement, "been developed into a modern city, with a permanent . (population of- close to 3000, housed in ! comfortable homes. Hundreds of residents of Philadelphia, Baltimore, i Washington, New Tork, Pittsburg and i ( other cities have built in Oape May i cottages, which are model b of comfort i a and elegance, and which they occupy „ from early spring to late fall ; indeed, ' some of them linger until the Christmas holidays, and some stay the year around, the heads of the families com- ( muting daily between^heir seaside 1 i homes and the city. ! The building of the the Cape ( e May, which has heen in progress for j : several years, is taking on new life t r just now , as evidenced by the recent I s letting of a contract to build fifty cot- ( ) tages on the new site, all to be ready c s for occupancy with the opening of next ( r season. The pleasant weather of the ( i past three or four weeks has served to keep the activities of one of Cape - May's best known institutions, the golt club, in public mind. The fine ninei hole course, which only this fall hss - neen greatly improved under the su t pervision of Samuel Bispham, of the i Philadelphia Country Club, has been ■ the scene during the fine days of a a Eun.ber of well fought cout sts To I be golfer who is fond of a "sporty' I : game, the course at Cape May presents ■ a fine' field for his prowess. Owing to f the contour of the land and, the proxI imity of the salt meadows, the course ■ is laid out upon a strip of farm lano 1 J bordering one of the principal thor- 8 I I oughfares of t' e city, Lafayette St. ' ■I COURSE LOuKS EASY UnSer Mr. Bispham's hand the nine j® i j holes have been laid out on this nar- | row strip of rolling' meadow, w>.ose j natural pitfalls have been augmented i by the conduction of bunker hazzar If. The course looks easy, but woe f i j betide him who "slices" or "nulls. '" a , The first and second holes, extending f. outwardly from the commodious club a ■ house, which is within easy walking e j distance of all the hotel and cottages, e j are fairly easy to negotiate, provided one plays "straight," although they j I are rather long holes, j "Three" lies along the salt meadow ^ i to a green which, for the sake n! 0 j economy of space, has been doubled up with "six," and ia one of the short gl I holes. "Four"' and "five" are easy, g, I and so is "six" but - "seven" has a Bl triple set of bunkers. 4, I "Eight" and "nine" extend along the inner or street side of the course a

back to the clubhouse, on' the spacious veranda, on which one may sit and watch the course of a match from start to finish. The whole course is in fine condition. Today the grass on the putting greens was as green as emerald velvet, and playing the "Royal Game" was indeed a pleasure. With a mild winter, such as the last three or four ! been. Cape May should, and undoubtedly will, be the Mecca of golfer-, j from all parts, vgho need experience j difficulty in playing over the course j in winter that they would not find in The golf club, during the I season is the scene of a num- j of tournaments, boilT"with other | clubs and atnotyi the membership. These attract widespread attention. The annual series with Atlantic^ City one of the events of the season. GOLF CLUB POPULAR The tennis counts, constructed at cost, have proved a welcome addition to the summer pleasures, and the Saturday afternoon teas, with music by a fine orchestra, have made Golf Club a remarkably popular meeting place for Oape May residents hnd visitors. Only in very recent years has Oape been able to entertain winter I visitors Its hotels closed their doors with the advent of cool weather, and cottagers alone represented the transient population. Butgthe increase in winter patronage tbia year caused two of the many good hotels in Oape May to keep open house the year around. One on tinfront, the other a stone's throw from the beach, offer accommodations . which are homelike and inviting. Sevreal small boarding bouses also have winter gueata this year.
