CITY WILL MAKE — MANY IMPROVEMEXNTS THIS WINTERPROGRESSIVE SPIRIT GROW. NScaaiIIF) ( UBU CONVINCE "PULL-BACKS® — OF — CITY8 NEEDS-PREPARE NEW AD VERTISING BOOKLET. According to the present outlook there is an active improvement program scheduled for Cape May, The County Freeholders are; being urged to take over Beach avenne oud Broadway to Yale avenue and hard surface the drive: ‘Then agitation for a new boardwalk -or a new section of boardwalk at least, from the City Pier to the old Tron Pier is gaining headway. Numerous new buildings are being erected. . Others will follow before the commencement of the next season. In last weeks issue was a para graph urging that the citizens keep their premises clean and attractive. One, of the most — important statestatement that "this is not an ordiary city, it is a resort." At all times this should be considered. KEEP THE CITY CLEAN ALWAYS ® I heard a recent visitor to Cape May the unkempt condition of the resort at this time of year. He had seen the city at its best. the past summer and the few months that have elapsed have made changes in the city. Clean and attractive methods should be in farce at all times of the year. To have the city in perfect condition all the year round should tend to convert the pull-backs of this city to the probus cause, — Everyone would feel re vigorous in the work on city improvements and nothing «could stop Cape May from attaining its just po<ition in the ranks of the American seashBre resorts. I have just received a copy of a booklet put out by the Chamber of Tian « Flo. This broke Hently iMustrated and secme the right size. To read it would not bore a person. . With most of the washore — advertising . the talks are too lengthy and for that reason not

ead. This city needs a new booklet ind — photograph and. copy for it hould be commenced now. .. In tht ast several booklets the sume illus rations have been . used for years, Why not spend a little more money he cost of new cut« would be small in comparison to the difference in thee wults-and put out a real live book et. NEED MORE ADVERTISING In speaking of advertising I might mention the new work in Wildwood. In the daily papers of Philadelphia there is now appating advertising of that resort telling of the advantages of the Island as a winter resort. We might be able to learn something from the citizens of the island on the subject of advertising. Cape Ma: has always been well suited for a and early spring resort in addition to its qualifications in the summer time. Did you ever see it advertised in the city newspapers? Why not a movement to have this done and to make some attraction for the visitors next spring. . . Various kinds of amusements could be held here during the winter and early spring to induce the v come here. These amusements would also prove valuable to the Cape May» o o a the city und its activities and there would be more real things that they could talk about and take pride in. CONVINCE KNOCKERS To have Cape May advance as it should the old time knockers should be convinced as to the meed of improvements here, . The necessity of proper | advertising . should also be proved to them. If nothing can convince the "pull-backs" of Cape Maj then the only thing this City can have | to wake it up is to have a number of | this last statement of mine will seem a little harsh and will not be in keeping with the editorial policy of the "Star and Wave"- but if other methods fail how will the resort advance until the knockers have left us. ind --mmoa --- " notice To cunxERs All persons are forbidden to trespass with dog or gun on any of the |property of the late Emlen Physic either in Cape May City or in Lower | Township.

Lole) 5 1.5 CEJ OS U th dF :3 50 : A14 (04 5 There is much unrest all over the world and the United States is not entirely immune from Bolsheviam. What is needed to avert qne of the most dreadful of all calamities is the Amerfcanization of all foreign born within our borders and to reseue those fortunate enough to be born in this country from the slough of despond, to improve their surroundings and give them a more hopeful and cheerful view of the future. To impress upon the foreign born the fecessity of being good citl. zens is one of the greatest objects of Community Service, There is room in every community for earnest work ] in this direction and there seems no questioning the statement that Community Service is the hest equipped organization to accomplish this tremendous task. | It has the machinery and the leaders and it already has proved its worth in a number of cities. Neighborhood ; and community works are not new in this country, but ; there is a new promise of force through national organization in the nation-wide plans. of Community Service. Roosevelt said that "no man could be part American and part something else" and truer words were never uttered. | The citizens of this country must be all American or nothing, The program of Community Service calls for a great movement to make thorough-§OINF Americans of all of our foreign born population. Amer!- $ canization is the common term but higher ‘and better $ citizenship are better words. Through various methods i Community Service plans to instill into the alien bort M the ideals that will counteract unrest and place the di#ciple of unrest in the background,
