Clean streets, clean side ^ . walks, clean beach, clean dwellings, f( clean hotels, clean people, this latter u in every sense, and last but not least, C| clean progressive government. w The responsibility for attaining this g e condition rests upon all and cannot be ; ^ put up, excepting in part, to the city | - government. i p h Furthermore, a condition of this I v kind should be made a matter of com- , g pulsion. People should be penalized ! g for throwing paper or rubbish on side , ; walks, streets or vacant lots. Owners 1 1 of vacant lots should be required to i j. keep them in proper condition — have , j. I no moral or legal right to do other- j j » wise. They should be. required to L I keep sidewalks in order and clean. 1 1 | They have no moral or legal right to j ( I i ney nave m> uiviiu ui rega, — j

I n^lect them. They are arrogating to j I themselves special privileges when j , ■ they neglect these duties. I Most of the vacant lots in the heart | ■ of the city would have been sold and : I built upon years ago if they had been j , I offered for sale at fair prices. Own- j ' 1 ers should t$t be permitted to neglect | them to- the detriment of other prop- 1 ^ ■ erties- merely because they hold them ■ I for exhorbitnat prices. | , - -Wf— | -PARTY FACE8 DISASTER" — GORE ft Senator Thomas Gore, Democrat, of ' 1 Oklahoma, who was defeated for re2 nomination through the Influence of I the White House because of his oppo- ~ gltloc to the League of Nations, plaln3 ly Indicates thai he proposes to conI tlnne his flgbt open the league.

GRANGE GATHERING 1 ■ The autumn meeting of the Cape 1 ; May Pomona or County Grange is this j Saturday (16tb) and with the Subordinate Grange at Rio Grande, "with . afternoon and evening sessions. The date was named by the Rio Grande grange a month ago, the Worthy ' Master, Miss Hildreth, says, and, in ' answer to her phone inquiry last Mon- : day, the Pomona secretary, Mrs. Herbert, at Stone Harbor, said- all , ; subordinate granges had been notified 1 but, as late' as Monday afternoon, Harry Errickson, secretary of the Dias e Creek grange knew nothing whatever s about it. The first inkling given the 1 county press was last Thursday afternoon when the forms for all had d closed. From this and similar instances and when lack of information | ^ has prevented attendance, it would " ] seem desirable for the entertaining I grange to name at least the week of 1 the meeting at the time of extending e i invitation, when it could have been l. I .... .. J T> U1C UltlWUVU, ..

placedin the minutes, and the Secretary thus be on the lookout for , and, members could make plans for attending, and the Wktrthy Master could call his Executive Committee together and plan for a program. The hope of members of the Rio Grande grange has been to have the fifth degree conferred in full form in their own hall (one j two in the county constructed it) and to have the class consist of all eligible in the I county and elsewhere and those also who had been admitted only by obligation. Mrs. R. P. Risley, Grace of | j degree, has promised tfcwttend for , ! it and the Worthy State Master ex- , ! pects to be present and 'to arrange the Pomona to have the demon stration precede that of the sixth de- - gree at the annual meeting of the State Grange. The degree is on<?" of ithe most beautiful in the irder ami encouragements to pe vsevere are : helpful. The afternoon session is for j business and limited to these ' | having the fifth degree "word, ", but ! the Lecturer's hour in the evening is 1 to &I1.

; BUSINESS MEN TO ORGANIZE « t I A meeting will be called in the very c near future to organize a Business I | Men's League. The new organizaI tion will be composed of only the live j wires of the city, and the fellows who j 1 I don't want to sec Cape May grow will • not be invited to become members. ■ j purpose of the League will be to r I see that the city gets better publicity j 1 than it has in the past, also that the city Commissioners see that the city's 1 advertising is placed in the best newspapers in the United States, and that it is placed early in each year, and ah effort will be made to try and raise funds to send a man of good talka- , tive powers and is a good mixer to the ' "Sunny South" with an up-to-the-min- i ! ute booklet of Cape May. This and other things will be taken | up at the first meeting of the new | | organization. r It is high time that Cape Maj j j should come into its own and the only , way to do this will be to keep awake s j the whole year round, and not just in < 5 summer, but all the time. The new | s i slogan of the new organization will t . be : t j Cape May's Boosters, I- Cape May's Boys Not Cape May's Drones, But Cape May's Joys! ATLANTIC CITY RAILROAD COMPANY f d r.wwUw, N.
