Yesterday was an off day on the j f beach, the cold northeast wind and the ! drizzling rain making it very unfavorL able to attempt bathing. At this time, as the end of the season j draws near, we feel it both fitting and proper to say something in favor of : . the Cape May Life Guards. During the j present Season they hare made in the ' 0 vicinity of 100 rescues, and qot a single fatality haa resulted, owing to their keen watchfulness over the many ; bather.. Their motto has been "Safety First.'' This is especially true of the children, they are always can-fully ' guarded over, and never allowed to pass ■ beyond the safety line. The highest state of efficiency has jbefii maintained throughout the" entire arason, and tliey deserve a reduiTn'ain-c «f praise-. Tlic economic value of a beach suit must be worth considering. Of course the mure elaborate costumes are ex- I pensive, but then, one satin suit is usually enough and fewer morning frocks are needed. To breakfast in one's buthing suit is not surprising when one is to spend the entiry morning on the sand. This custom, when in a cottage seems permissible, but we have nob' yet heard of its being au rait in any of the hotels which advertise "bathing from the house." The task of dressing /g a complicated affair, even when fashion frowns on the books in the back. A timid woman from the far weai . saw the. octan for the first time two Weeks ago. She was bewildered and stunned by the immensity of water, and by the changes from a placid limitless lake to the angry pounding billows of an unconquerable menacing sea. i Her friends were . urging her to ■ gc in bathing, a trivial everyday matter to them, but a dangerous undertaking to her. Finally she consented, but unfortunately not on the calmest of days. * She donned a bathing suit, and fearfully self conscious of what to her seemed a shocking appearance, she rushed into the friendly depths of the I • sea. By degrees, she waded out to t lie ; -line where the breakers were apt to ' play mad pranks on the uninitiated. ; She was told' to jump over them. All j went well for a while. Suddenly a ! ( huge roller came in. She saw this I , wall of water towering high and sin- 1 , felt Doomsday had come. Her feeble i 1 jump landed her in the middle of the , breaker and she was tumbled over and over, a bit of flotsam at the m< rey ; of an angry God. •• ■ Her friends picked up a half- strangled body who yet had strength to . groan, "Oh. Lord, I'm dead, I know I'm dead." Hut life was not to be lost so easily, and after conrage wag restored she tried it again. What strange things arc Inst on the Boardwalk! The cracks between the boards never seem very wide until one . suddenly drops something and it rolls . . out of Sight. The writer saw an object disappear the other day through this mysterious , opening and it seemed positively un- 1 canny. Five young girls were fluttering along the Boardwalk, in the joyous and j , free-from care manner of youtb, chat. 1 ; tcring like magpies and unconscious of the rest of the world. To give empha- < ' sis to a certain remark one of them ; waved her arm in the air, a key at- , taelied to a large brass tag flew out j; jof her iiHinl. struck the boards with j | a in tuitu- ring. and. i.s if by magic, . | (melted into thin air. She -lioiitetj. "Oh j my door key has droppi-d through a ; ' crack!"- Two newsboys rushed to the!] rescue; one. 'lined a paper down just: I where she was standing, the other ran < under the Boardwalk, and after some I search found the key. Many are less I I fortunate, as things sink into the sand 1 and defy the most careful search. | ' 11 CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
