HARSHM ALLOW ROAST After the regular Epworth League meeting Monday evening, the members present, numbering about thirty, took their lance like prongs and started for the beach, where they found everything ' in readiness as some members had sufficient forethought to gather the wood < and other fuel that morning. On reaching the selected place, which by the way, was just to the right of the tressel bridge on ine Cape May Point trolley road, the fire was immediately kindled < and the punishment of the marshmal- I lows began. After their appetites were 1 somewhat appeased the story teBing function was then in order. Mr. Dobbine started by unloosing several' side- I splitters which kept the crowd in a gay f mood for the rest of the evening. Miss i A. L. Smith, the celebrated palmist, was < there to tell the fortunes. t Popping corn proved to be the next i fad. Following this Miss Myra Dobbins come out dressed ss a ghost and made a great hit. All expresaed themselves as •n excellent time. Ralph Speace, one of Cape May's pop ' ular young men, has recently been app pointed lance corporal in the regular . army and is stationed at Fort William ' McKinley, Rizal, Philippine Islands. ( , BASE BALL SATURDAY AFTERNOON The Cape May Reserves will play the Cape May C6urt Hoilse team' at Colum bia avenue park on Saturday afternoon. Game called at three o'clock. f THE "GANG" WAS ALL THERE l The funniest thing about that band episode was that the banners said, • Down With The Gang" or something like that while the band which they t followed joyfully played, "De Gang's All ^ Here, What the h — 1 do We Care." ( THERE WAS MUSIC IN THE AIR A feature of the primary election was ( the employment of the Cape May Band ini the Interest of Stille, Republican for Assembly, and Schellenger, Republican, for Sheriff. The band was accompanied 2 pickaninnies bearing banners with inscriptions as follows: "We are Insurgents," referring to the pickaninnies of coarse; "Down with Bosses,' 'Vote j for Stille and Schellenger" and so on. The people managing the affair made one f mistake. They should have come out and marched behinu the banners and the t people would then have enjoyed the thing thoroughly. g f I NOTICE Harry Callahan is no longer in | my employ. Charles A.
