BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES On Sunday morning at the First Bap-, list Church Pastor McCurdy will spcalT from the text "The Stranger within Our Oaten," dealing with the problem of the Immigrant. There are many phases of this problem that will be a revelation to most people, even to the most ardent Christian workers. At night he will •peak on "Christ's Call to the Children, hocemr the Junior Society is to be present and to sing one of their Junior hymns. Juniors 2. P. M. Bible School »3>0 P. M. At the regular mid-week service on Wednesday night at 7^-^He~paator.will I wive an' illustrated talk on the Life of Judson. On February 19, 1812, Adoniram Judson and his wife sailed from Salem, Mass. On September 6, of the year they were baptized in India. On January 19, 1803, letters arrived in Boston which brought to America the news that Judson had become a Baptist. On May 21, 1814, the General Missionary Convention of the Baptist denomination in the United States of America was organized— this is now the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society. Ihc period beginning with January 1, 1914, and continuing until Easter, has been designated for a Judson Centennial Educational Campaign in Baptist churches. This illustrated talk is part of that Chi luriday night at 7 AO, the regular Young People's meeting. To most of the residents of Cape May, Camden is merely the point at which we Ukc the ferry for Philadelphia OX where we find.the train ready to bring __-t(a home. But those who heard Miss Elizabeth' M. Snagg at the First Baptist Church on last Tuesday night will here- j after think of iier and of her work j amongst the Italiaus when that name Of Camden is mentioned. Ten thousand | Italian residents oof Camden have but one Protestant church, home or mission'. The seating capacity is only 175 and Often it happens at the Sunday services that these are all occupied and many art willing to staud through the services. The mission is day nursery, sewing school, house of refuge, industrial home, ; manual training school, social center ami everything else that is wholesome and that suggests itself to the active . minds and busy hands of Miss Snagg and the other workers among these people. Miss Snagg spoke under the auspices Of the Woman's Missionary Society of ■ the Baptist Church and her pictures and descriptions were the more greatly en- , loyed by the large group of Juniors who j heard her because they had sent a bar- . rel and a box of Christmas toys to ( give the Italian children Christmas cheer. 1 | At the annual mctting of the First ( Baptist Church Sunday School held Sun- j ! day afternoon, January 4th, 1913, the j ( following cflicers were elected: i ( Everett J. Jerrell, superintendent. 1 ( Charles B. Perkins, ass't superintend- ( 8. Irwin Stevens, secretary. Robert Hand, Jr., ass't. secretory. j John T. Hewitt, treasurer. Franklyn BL Morris, librarian.

The attendance for the first week has been good and the earnest spirit of co-operation most encouraging. J All members are expected to help and j the public is cordially welcomed. j The individual communion set was ( used again last Sunday and with perfect , satisfaction. This set is different from | all others and is especially adapted for , Use at an altar communion service. The' ( head does not have to be thrown back t when the wine is token, but the top of the cup is so pointed that the cup . alone can be tilted without capsing in- , convenience. A heavy sparkling glass t specially pressed reduces breakage to a minimum, while ordinary glass cups were , Broken at every service. This set also j can also be sterilized and cleansed all j at once, the cups being so shaped that , they may all be thrown into a wire cage f and will drain automatically after be- : ing submerged in a tub of boiling water. , This is especially appreciated by those , who take cars of the service. We are especially indebted to the following peo- ( pie who clubbed together and donated • this beautiful and practical set to the church: Mrs. L. C. Ogden, Mrs.New- j i 1 ■tats of Ohio, city of Toledo, l_ ' Lucas County. f "■ 1 Frank J. Cheney makes oath thai ha la ■ senior partner of the firm of F. j.

B Once there, one feels that the sun I should shine forever, and the waters re1 tain their smiling countenances for an i equal period, and that the exhilarating | . i influences of speckless sky, bright sun-"j r j light, the bright, stimulating, restless j I ! waters, and the myriad sights and scenes , : which make a fishing trip on the sea j j ; so delightful, should never be left, ex- j I ] cepting for short intervals, unenjoyed. j ; Passing over the bridge in a carriage . i at Schellenger's Landing on a day simi- , j lar, in flawless beauty, to the one we s have attempted to describe, we saw an _ I old friend and gave him greeting. He .' was standing near the rail, looking tof | w ard the harbor and the scene under hie _ ; eye was as charming as could be imagin- ; .' ed; white-sailed cat boats and motor | , boats flitting here and there, the shining j . w aters dancing. As we reached him he j . • said. "What do you think of it, Mr. X !" j , "Pretty as^ picture, Bill," said we.- And j ' I with a deepsighing, inhalation, remark- | i j ed "This is heaven enough for me." . i Without accepting this doctrine in its j entirety, we w ill admit it will answer as [ j somewhat deicriptive of our sentiments on the day of which we speak. . | "Where shall we anchor," shouted the , | "?-et's go along farther out, I want j to see the First Mate there get sea'- ' j sick," said the Doc. "Bet you couldnjt I cure me. if I did," said he who had been ; j dubbed First Mate. . "This is far enough," said the skipper. ' "The wind is breezing up and there may . j be a big sea. Let go the anchor." * 1 I I Splash ! "Give her plenty of "rope." [ I A boat is wiser than a man. No matter how much rope you give it. it will i 1 1 not hang itself. Now the lines are over ■ l two of the fishermen playing with rods i and reels, the other one fishing. What ! inau with an ounce of sentiment in him , would call it fishing when you have to , i get your sensations through" a long pole | 11 '"1 jigger the poor fish in by machinery. ! | It may do for menhaden steamers or I market, fishermen, but not for your true | Isaak Walton. If you have no aenti- | nicnt about you, ypu had better take a ( j While we've been divertin', the chaps 1 ! have been busy and suddenly the skip- I [ per says, "Get your lines in boys, and , j avoid a tangle. I've got a whale." Sure enough, the way the thing swishes that 1 j and bends that pole and rushes first ' j seaward arid then downward, until it I ; threatens to exhaust the liberal supply | jol line provided, it is surely something I Pretty soon the pressure slackens j bit and the monster comes toward the surface, only to dive into the depths ■ again in the next instant, and then ' dart toward the boat, which he apparently circumnavigates the skilful fisherman following him closely, and he is off to sea as though he wanted to make Henlopen in a very few minutes. Then he is again rounded to and so goes the fight for at least a half hour, until fin- ' ally he is brought into sight and the 1 | remark made by the skilful fisherman ' when he saw what he had caught, really cannot be printed in a family paper. - But do you blame him T It was a sting- ( ray, a huge one, weighing about forty ' pounds, and capable of putting the ' whole party hors du combat if it could 1 but whack each with the barbed and poisonous section of its toil. "Fore- 1 warned is forearmed," however, and the varmint was kyarved up a bit and set afloat again. The first mate's turn next and Ae 1 proudly displayed two flying fish, sea robins, one on each hook. "Do they fly," did you ask! Sure, they've got wings, capable of sustaining them in the air for a short time, and it is part of their fun to practice firing leaps into the air aided by their wings. ■ Come to think of it, it may not be all fun, it may be when the voracious bluefish chases them and they have to get out of the way quick. "Eat 'em?" "Oh, yes, some people. Wo haven't got to it yet. They are strikingly beau- ' tiful, however, brownish in color and « speckled somewhat like a lake trout, i six or eight inches long, usually. t Next Doc gets busy and he says noth- . ing, but the way he's a-working would 1 something big. If he wants ' action, he's getting it. Darting, diving, < jumping, doing all sorts of capers, fifteen i minutes to find what 'tis which has signalled and when he saw it, Doc was disgruntled enough to take one of his 1 pills. It was a shark, about five 1 feet long and weighing about fifty pounda. Doe simply reached for the boat hook and soaked him on the pro- ! and he broke away. His open ' mouth showed two rows of vicious- f teeth. Between or ""Tg these < startling episodes, each of the party had . catching weakfish, toritog, flounder 1 f an occasional hake, so that In a 1 comparatively short time they had a big string of beauties, weighing from , one to six pounds each. The mate had , taken his attention from his ttU far a moment and saw Ma field gtaaaea. He 1 fat > "■? rz , -There's a Boat Bottom '■* -Mid the dripper. rijU-i*- n- .

' i- ) The skipper took the glasses and gaz- ■ ed intently at the dai k object three or h | lour miles to toe "nuitberd and east e '• erd," and shoved soaie excitement when d 1 he shouted, Oimuiam La,, sure as o 1 you live. " Get up that anchor.

They've seen it too." The y object was closely scanned but could I not be made out dcpriy: It seemed . very much like a boat and there were '- | certainly objects clinging to it. After a >e • few minutes Doc remarked, "Do jrou r ' smell those infernal Delaware fish fac- :- lories. It is worse than I ever noticed r "Bad enough," said the skipper, "and it is getting worse. It is almost suffoThc mate had raised his glasses again and after a close scrutiny, he laughingly ' said, "Boya^ that s a aead whale, as r sure as shooting' and those things on the side are fish, I believe." A little closer and toe stench was in- - tolerable, because, not only was it a dead whale but a very dead oDe and it would be^a smart fish factory which ' could make the smell he produced. The fish -at his side were discovered to be n sharks, perhaps, a dozen to twenty of ; them, and they were biting into him and taking out great chunks just like Black s j Pete eats a watermelon. They were apb ' parently upright in the water and dug t tb,eir under jaws into the carcass with . j precision and efficiency. About this time the life-savers came * up and hailed us between gasps, and af- . ter a short inspection hastened back t to the beach out of range of the awful ; j smell of tlie dead, very dead, whale. s Our party had about all it wanted of ' fish, but anyhow that awful smell s knocked fiBhing sentiment and desire for catching 'em higher than Haman. [ LOOK AFTER THE DOGS 1 ' Steps should be token without delay '• | to regulate the dog situation in this | I ; city. Dogs which have owners who will take proper care of them and conform . to requirements of city ordinances are. s perhaps, all right, even in a city. Dogs , not properly cared for should oc elirn- . imi ted and an omcial ylog catcher should be installed for the purpose of accom- . plisliing this. A resort could do without dogs altogether, if it were compelled, to , do so, but it should certainly see to it ; that those within it should not be permitted to become a nuisance.
