NEW BOAT UNE TO CAFE MAY I ■ STEAMBOAT SERVICE TO BE ESTABLISHED^ BETWEEN PHILADELPHIA. WILMINGTON AND CAPE M^Y, ALSO BETWEEN LEWES, DELAWARE, AND THIS CITY— OPTION HAS BEEN SECURED OH A LARGE BOAT WHICH IS WELL ADAPTS D FOR THIS SERVICE. The 'movement started some time ago by citizens of Cape May and else- | where t* establish a boat line between Philadelphia, Cape May and Wildwood, I and a similar line from Cape May to Lewes, JteL, has become an assured - fact and arrangements are now under way to start the steamboat serviee be- - t ween these points at the earliest possible date. | The steamboat to be used in thy service will be known as the "Cape May" and it is the intention to institute a night Use between Philadelphia and Cape May, stoppng at Wilmington, Lewes, DeL, and" other points, the trip from Philadelphi* to Cspe May being made one night and the return trip to , Philadelphia the next night. During the day S regular schedule will be es- , tablisbed between Cape May and Lewes, Del., which will continue througbout- ' the summer. h. , A company ha* been organized and incorporated under the iWs of Dela- , , ware, and already stock has been subscribed to the amquht of $5,000 by : business men of Wildwood; $5,000 at Lewes, Delaware, and a similar amount ' by citizens of Ospe May, while several interested persons of Philadelphia hare | expressed their willingness to assist in this venture. An option has been secured on a first-class steamboat, which has been in the coastwise service from Bath, Maine, to different points, and Mayor Stevens, accompanied by Judson Bennett and a U. 8. Steamboat Inspector, made 1 a trip to Providence, Rhode Island, this week to make final inspection of the vessel and will probably close the deal whereby this boat will be put into the service on the new line. The steamer under option has a length of 250 feet with 50 feet beam, and a carrying ca parity of about eight hundred passengers. There will also be an abundance of space for freight, which will it 1 available for use as an automobile ferry between the different points. The rates for this part of the service will be very reasonable, thus encouraging a class of visitors wishing to bring autoa, to come to this place, who under present I conditions would go elsewhere. ^ The establishment of this steamboat line .will mean much to Cape May, Wildwood and other nearby resorts, as it will enable visitors from Baltimore, Washington and points throughout Maryland, Delaware and Virginia a more direct and available route to these resorts. Many years ago when the steamers Queen Ann and The Virginia made Cape May their terminal, this city enjoyed f£e most prosperous times in ths history of the resort, and the establish ment of the line at the present time will afford the opportunity long desired by. many people of wealth and influence easy access to Cspe May and Southern Jersey points.

TEACHERS MEET AT OCEAN CITY The Association of Manual Training and Drawing Teachers, a recently organized body, met at Ocean City on April 1 14th with members present from Cape 1 May, Atlantic and Cumberland Counties. The organization is a tri -county one a»d takes the place of an institute with the difference that only industrial subjects are discussed. Heretofore the regular institute has held little of in- , terest ' to the vocational teachers because their subjects bave little in common with these of the grades. A constitution and by-laws were adopted and a regular meeting day set for , Wednesday and the annual, election of officers will be held in AprtP^of each yew. , Mr. Reuther, Assistant Commissioner of Industrial Education addressed the i gathering on "Manual Training sad its changing View Points," followed in the fjternqon by a talk by Mr. CRrril, Assistantfcommissioner of Education. Mr. Lowe Industrial teacher of Atlantic (Sty conducted a round table in the afternoon with "Twenty boys to a - Class" as a topic. This baby organization of the three counties marks just another step in the rapid advancement of the educational facilities of both teachers' and pupils and it is these get-to -gether meetings that make toward the ideal and eliminates the barriers between the little Old Red Schoolhouse and the modern City and Central Township public schools, both grammar and high. Industrial training in South Jersey where the interests are so divertifled and the industries so peculiar to the coast is doubly difficult to conduct to an advantage but this fusion of ideas and interests is a decisive step in the proper directoa.
