SHORTER AND MORE ATTRACTIVE Taken by -the Premier ran in June and Passe? Through Flourishing Towns J And Country. One of the most important things jwhich have oocourred during 19J0 is the! development of a new automobile route ! " to Cape May, through the investigations and energy of President A. T. Haynes, 1 of the Board of Trade, and Manager J. j P. Doyle of the Hotel Cape May. The : new route carries direct from Camden j to Cape May by way of Vineland and ; the bavside and leads through a flourinking country side and numerous pie- ' turesijue towns whereas the route by j way of May's Landing for most of the distance is unattractive. Another advantage is that the distance is about ten | miles less. The route is illustrated in the diagram published herewith and was ; " used in the great Premier auto ran to ; Cape May in June which was taken by; on?" hundred and ten autos. The above illustration is the true route a shuter route ) laving been mapped since the larg- , er map published a few days ago was This route passes through a beautiful : country and numerous quaint villages. 1

COMMUNICATED. Dear Margaret: — This is just- the grandest place fot . a vacation that one could wish for. | Frank says that I am falling in love with it and I guess I am. There isn't any ferris wheels, scenic railways or any such up-to-date amusements here to spoil the natural beauties of the place or to detract ones attention from the things really worth while. The beach here is just perfect, there can be none better anywhere in the world — broad and flat itstrciches for miles above and below the ba*hing grounds, a beautiful white strand. To the north is Sewells point and the mouth i of the harbor, with the huge- stone 1 jetties putting out into the sea, a pretty! sight when the waves dash into spray | To the south is the little borough of 1 f -South -Gape May with a pretty back f ground of green meadows. Further on to where the bay and ocean meet is the picturesque hamlet of Cape May Point.' or as many call it '"Sea Grove." Everyone goes in bathing at about 1 I 11.30 and at that honr the bath houses I are the ceuter of attraction and beryi J of girls just budding into young woman- , hood mingle their happy cluitter with | buzz of fond motliers and as fond, though not so demonstrative fathers. Such a busy laughing time you can't scarce imagine unless you could sec the crowd as eyei-yone tries to get dressed for bathing before some one else. And the suits are just perfect, not a _ and such a host of fine figures* is hard ' to imagine. The beach" between the highwater mark and the boardwalk is crowded with private tents where those who wish to watch the bathers can sit in the shade. The dry warm beaches always filled w-ith circles of friends, always remind one of a picnic as they chat the morning away, and lots of people pass from one group to another greeting their friends. Down near the edge of the water the beach chairs are always lined up and visitors who have no tent and wish to be in the shade hire a chair by the hour and spend the time reading and watching the rest. About 12 o'clock when everyone is on the beach the scene reminds me of a busy bee hive. Friends gather in • groups and each little gathering is a I picture in itself, morning gowns, outing I dresses and bathing suits which adorn | their fair owners mingled in one grand J way. Blight paroaols, and pretty bath1

ing caps add coloring to the scene. , Out in the surf "the shouts of the men . mingle with the shrill screams and gay laughter of the women, as the foaming green waves curl into snowy spray and ' dash over the bathers as thgv crowd ' together in keen enjoyment of the refreshing surf. From one part of the beach to another wander promenaders and bathers until one is dizzy with the changing scene. Just out beyond the breakers is the life boats with the alert life guards " ready to aid ' the unwary one who gets beyond his depth. From the pavilion the strains of music • from, the city band mingle delightfully . \.ilh voices of the passiug throng. '| About 1 o'clock the crowds begin to _ I uvv v:.die away by 1.30 the beach is aij most entirely deserted, j Frank and I are going to spend the j I afternoon at the golf club. I will tell you _ J about it next time. Your Loving sister, (DOROTHY.

THE CAPE MAY SUMMER SCHOOL This fourth year of the existence of the Cape May Summer School of Agriculture, Industrial At* and Science has been the most successful of its history. U made its beginning in the summer of 1907 and has steadily grown in popular favor ever wince. It now has 140 students. Its dean Mr. T. D. Sensor, of the State Department of Public Instrac-" tion is one Of the most enthusiastic of . the advocates of more practical schools' in which agriculture and industrial and domestic art may be taught, and the school here owes its success to his efforts. It is under the control of the State Board of Education and its influence is being felt all over New Jersey as well as in neighboring states. Its students are always enthusiastic over what they find in the various cour es. The faculty consists of ladies and gentlemen of the broadest experience and culture, and the school furnishes an opportunity to summer visitors to Cape May to learn some very useful things and to enjoy themselves as well with the act . A movement is on foot to secure an induatrial normal school as the natural development of the summer school and if it succeeds the school will become s ■ permanent all the year institution. New Jersey needs badly just such an institution and needs it particularly in South Jeraey. The annual reception of the faculty to t students and friends will occur on Fri0 day evening next at Congress Hall and 1 the school closes next week. It will t repay cottagers and visitors generally t to visit the high school at which the .. summer school sessions are held and see , the work which is being done. We . .. can promise them an agreeable surprise. . The dean will give visitors every attepi- tion itnd explain all the details of the The school is primarily for the pur- ,. pose of instructing t&ichcre in the elu- . ments of agriculture, drawing, various . forms of manual trainiug, domestic art, , t and allied subjects in order that these . subjects may be introduced-in all of the e schools. It was first started as a private , institution, its expenses being largely ,- met in its first year by private subscrip- , tion of the citizens of Cape May and r others interested. THE BEAUTIFUL ARCH LIGHTS The new system of lighting at the . beach front by means of arches over the , , boardwalk has gone into effect ard the . 1 effect is all that could be deRired. Everybody here ia Jelighted with the change 2. which brilliantly lights every bit of the boardwalk and makes it a more popular . promenade than ever. The arches are erected at intervals of sixty yards columns between each two arches, Ujxm 1 the arches are placed numerous Tungsten ' electric lamps and upon the columns a ■ high power light of the same kind. It ' would be difficult to conceive of a light ' ing arrangement more beautiful or effect - j A VISITOR SINCE 1854 Mr. M. Daly, of Philadelphia, whose 5 cottage is on North street, has been a 8 regular summer visitor to Cape May 8 since 1854. ' SHERIFF'S SALE.

5 COMMUNICATEE DOROTHY'S LATEST LETTER • DEAg MARGARET:-^ f want to tell you aboo our visit to i f the Cape May Golf dub last Saturday i r The chib ia on Lafayette street and ; " you can go almost there by trolley The i ' club house is fronted by a number of fine ' - trees which makes a fine place to ait in ' t be shade and read or do .fancy work > • and many of the members and their ' 1 friends spend whole afternoons chatting ! 1 under the trees and on the grass as they « ■ do embroidery and watch the golfers. e The links are as fine as any iii the • 5 country, on the rear are the meadows ' 1 and on the front is Lafayette street j sa that the entire course is visible from < : the street. Besides this there are the ^ s tennis courts, just as level aa the floor. • ' and quite as much interest is taken in ' " them as in any floor in town. Last ' 1 Saturday the regular tea was given by i ' the ladies and a game called clock golf < ; was the chief amusement. The game 1 " is played oa a huge clock face right in ' front of the porcn on the western side ' 1 which is next to the linka. ' Besides all thia, which was very inter- 1 1 esting to me, there was a match at 1 the tennis courts between several ex- - pert players from Philadelphia clubs. > Around the courts were rows of benches ' 1 for the spectators and they were closely packed, with ladies of the club gl) -dressed > in wnite, all pretty and as stylish as " a scene from a modern love story. Dur- ' ' ing the afternoon the lawn and club " ' house were handsomely decorated with ■ r Japanese lanterns which were given to ■ 1 the club by Mrs. K. J. Graves. . ' ; The pretty green background of trees ' ' and grass with the multi-colored lan- : - terns swinging to and fro in the wind < was certainly a pretty sight. Every 1 - one hurried home as soon as the tetania- 1 raent and tennis was over te get dressed 1 for the evening. 1 Frank and 1 got back a little late 5 ami nearly every one was there then. • Of course we didn't know very many of ' the ]>eople there so we sat down and ; watched the rest. It was just like a scene from a play. Pretty girls, handsome young men and fond parents set on . the veranda laughing and chatting ' as they waited for the dance te comThe ladies were dressed in splendid evening gowns, every one as beautiful and as graceful as a queen. The evening perfect. The bright full moon lighted up the entire grounds with a dreamy,

fairy land -ouw"a^r, R»A>|f»| first dreamy waltz you could I W , imagine the strolling costplre -ere MM as they slowly reterwd from U» fftfM I part of the grounds; the ladias ' showing in sharp rontraat againa*. - dsric green grass. Frank whispered, aa the aoft of music came floating on the geotk J "It make me almost wish ; were lovera #gain," just as if vs-.mI ever he nothing else. Refreshments were served during tMfl • evening by the young . ladies and i old lady you could imagiaviS : just "like one's own mother, saw i everything was right. Miaa Margaret .1 • Mrs. R. W. Starr and MqKH . Emanuel Shoemaker were the ones who M i worked the hardest to make a unrrsaa n . of the evening, but they were helped several others of the association, in fact, J r everyone must have worked hard to W i the dance go off so delightfully, 1 i for I am sure the affair was only talked : of a few daya before. Anyway it waa the finest craning we 1 spent here this summer. Your loving sister, DOROTHY. \ . MOTOR FISHING BOATS ■atAMifwp ; i A Philadelphia paper says: i A further investigation of the illrgsil overcrowded conditions of motor flahi ing boats operating from Anglesea, N. i J., to the various fishing banks along the i Jersey short, will be made next Tosnday when eight pilots of the vessels involved : in the charges preferred last week by Deputy Steamboat inspector H. T. MarI stella, of Anglesea, will be called to before the local board of United States steamboat inspectors in the" Fed- * [ eral Building, to answer charges of recknavigation. The investigation is a direct result of a hearing on July 18 of J. M. Townaend, ■ of Anglesea, master of the motorboat I J. A. Reed, who was charged "with carry - , ing more passengers than life preservers. . In the course of the hearing Deputy In- ; specter Ma retells, who testified against . Townsend, told the board of the dangerous overcrowding qf the Anglesea boats, in consequence of which the local I inspectors the following day visited the I Jersey resort to find that the charges ; were not only true, but in many cases even worse than originally stated by , Inspector Ma retells.
