SMILEY— RYAN Drew Smiley, Cape May Star Third Base- 1 man and Miss Ryan, of Washington, Married After Elopement Mr. Andrew R. Smiley, for. the past three years the third seeker on the Cape May base ball team, sad Miss Kathleen Ryan, a popular YVashington girl, and a' summer reeideut of Oape May, were married at Perth Amboy, N. J., on last Wednesday, following an elopement from i Washington. Both are very popular here i and at their respective homes, and the marriage is the culmination of a romance , that started here last summer. A Phil - adelphia paper comments as follows on j the elopement. | "With both the young persons it was a 1 ' , case of love at rfist sight. "Drew" af- I ' ter graduating from the Univeraity with i the class of 1B10, and after finishing his : 1 third season as third baseman on the , J Red and Blue nine, went to Cape May ' ! to spend the summer. He joined the ' Cape May base ball team and began to < ' ^ play as fast a game as he did against Princeton, Yale and the other universities which travel to Franklin Field. , It waa after one of the Cape May , base ball games that "Drew" met Miss ^ were always together. At the dances at Ryan. After the first meeting they t . the hotels, on the beach, out on joy ( i rides in Miss Ryan's car, or strolling ! ( along the aand by moonlight. It was : - not long before the Summer colony at ' Cape May began to whisper that the couple had become engaged, but they ' did not expect the silent engagement ' . would lead to such a romantic elopement. 1 Miss Ryan became a follower of the ' Cape May base ball team and at every 1 game she watched "Drew" slide bases, I ' crack out singlet and pick up hot 1 grounders and make marvelous running « . catches at his position at tljird base. 1 Smiley has a reputation for being able to ' 1 cover the third comer in finished style. ' For three years he held down third 1 r base on the Pennsylvania nine. He was a ' I terror to Princeton. University of Pennsylvania students know him as a consis tent ball player, but his name will go dopn in the athletic annals of the inati- - tut ion as the man who broke up the 1 Princeton game on Franklin Field in 1908. ' 1 Smiley went to bat with two men out 1 ' hit the ball so far that ne circled the 1 ' bates before the Princeton outfielders | could get to it. This was in the last in ' ning and the score was a tie. r Up at Princeton last Spring Smiley 1 made six stops of hot grounders which ^ 1 saved Pennsylvania from defeat. Ho 1 played such a wonderful game that a ' Princeton man remarked: "Where did you get that man Smiley ?'

Many smaDer cities are doing much the same kind of thing, viz, borrowing money continually and swellingthe fixed charges I of the city to ruinous amounts. There will oome a disastrous ending to it all ' some. day.

RALLY SERVICE AT CAP* MAT POINT The Rally Serirce of the Oape May Point Union Sunday school wa. held «a Sunday evening last, a large coagrepition being present. A number of plea#- | ing recitations were given by various I members of the school, also several atosical numbers, principal awn* these ■ being "Onward Christian Soldiers," by Prof. Exceil, also "Vietory,' the latter being sung by the vast Sunday schhal of Bethany Presbyterian Church, PhDa> delpliia, several years ago. The school sang with percision and s volume that was delightful to listen to. The building was beautifully and artistically decorated by the boys aud girls of the Sunday school and presented an attractive appearance. Much credit is due these young people for their warm intrest ia the matter. A Thanksgiving service will be held on Sunday evening, November 27 tfa, at 7:30 p. m. Special mnaic and sermon. All cordially invited to a tend. Mrs. Alvin Marcv has returned from a visit to friends in Chester, Pa. The Point has a very talented muaic ian in the person of Mias Helen M. Dale. Miss Dale although but seventeen years old, is an organist of ability, playing the instrument with skill and knowledge well worthy a much older person. She has asisted at St. Peter's P. £. Church, Germantown, one of the moat influential and wealthiest churches of that select suburb of Philadelphia. She is a pupil of Prof. H. M. Staton, of PhiladalThe attention of the authorities is called to the fact that there ia a break . in the sewer pipe at the foot of the Point Pike. There is a very foul, offnsive odor arising from it and during the early morning hours it is very noticeable and particularly objectionable. Ths matter should receive immediate attention. If the "Syndicate" that deelvopd tho land and built the properties at Eaat Cape May had turned their atention to Cape May Point instead, it seems fair to assume that the outcome would have beep much more encouraging. The Point, with its beautiful woods, its wealth of holly, pine and cedar, its lofty oaks and hickories, lovely Lake Lily with its pretty walks around, and charming scenery, present an opening for the promoter that will make him famous. This part of the country with its ideal climate, has the foundation laid ' for a winter resort that would have but few rivals.
