( a ■ S ==• ; FUTURE PROSPERITY We are about to come to the most im- ( I. portent time in the history of Cape May ^ I" pW* the -AH" in the New Cape May I section. The reason for this is the work ' . that is now in progress in various lines. ' One of the most important things that j is under way is the new steamboat line " L. to Philadelphia. Tfc^i w<U certainly | ■ boom Cape May as nothing else would ^ do. It wfll enable the southern visitors to arrive here quicker and also be more ^ convenient as well as not as expensive to ] S travel Another large proposition that is now ^ in progress is the mosquito extermination work. If this work Is a success, ; and it has been a success in other places much worse than here. Cape May's pO[>- ( clarity will grow by leaps and hounds. . The mosquito problem has been on our minds for many years so now that it ( i la being attended to we should all get ( r together sind help, dean up the yards I ■ and fill in low places so that no breeding (daces can be found in the city and the engineer? in charge of thd work will at- ( tend to the meadow land. After considering having two of such ( great prepositions as'the steamboat line t sad peat riddance going on at one time ( ■ we can only imagine to what extent we , 1 will value them in years to come. The boat line will bring the people here and the mosquito riddance will f i make H very pleasant for them to re- . I main here, so they really work together ( And give great promise for great proa- ( ' perity in the near future. , HIGH SCHOOL RESERVES ' .

COLLEGE MEN Because so many men in this coun- ' try have suoceeded in business and public life so grandly there has arisen a • vague nothion that a college education - is of little worth, and that the man who stood at the head of his class all too I frequently ends life aa the driver of a 1 street car. The fiction is exploded for Harvard, at - any rate, by an alumnus who has 1 searched the catalogues for bflfor lists - and compared them with the names of Harvard men in "Who's Who." Of the • eight to nine thousand graduates be- - tween 1851 and 1000 who had a chance to appean in Who's Who," 1,305 are 1 found there. But no leas than twenty-two out of • thirty of the "first scholars" are there; 1 of men among the first ten of their classes, 41.5 per cent, are "mentioned, ) and of those who took their degrees I summa cunj laude, 42.5 per cent. There lis evidently something in college standing in colleg standing, after all. The fact is that the college-bred man is ' sought for everywhere, ior this has be- ■ come an age of experts. ' The newspapers, the railroad, the I professions, the manufacturer and all ' the higher departments of industry pick their men from, the ranks of the college graduates. Of ipourse, ultimate success depends upon what is in a young • man — his character, his natural abili- ' ties, habits and ambition. : Given these men can rise without a ' - "college drill ; - but the latter would: aid • them greatly, and save them much labor ' and vexation of spirit. — Trenton State - Gazette.
