OUR BANKS ( Sound, safe, solid, well conducted financial institutions constitute an undeniable asset to any community, whether private or national in form, the tried and tested bank stands as a firm rode of confidence to any municipality. Cape May has been particularly fortunate in this direction. The Security Trust Co., from its < inception inhoused in the old bride : • building, now the chemical engine 1 house on Bank street, up to this present, has-grown and established itself in the confidence of our citizens as an I institution at once and altogether stedfast and beyond reproach. Dignity, stability, pure undefiled and aristrocratic standing is the impression upon entering and fully verified when contact is made to courteous and obliging staff of executives. The visitor leaves the premises with a satisfied gratification and permanent confidence. Nor is there anything lacking in the i same qualifications as attached to the , Merchants National Bank. Starting in business at a tune when : - the older financial institution had become thoroughly established, it has risen from a small beginning to the . enviable position of equality with its predecessor. Practising upon tactful, careful, business principles, it has become a paying concern and is looked upon as a model for others to follow. Cape May can point with eminent i satisfaction, pleasure and pride to its | banks and declare them to be ameng | its best assets.

CAPE MAY'S CRYING NEED Several of the live wires of the business world in this City in talking to needs of the city over the other day, were all of the same mind on the fact that Cape May needs a first-class all-the-year-a round hotel where folk who •njoy the Fall and Winter month sal- - ^ the shore could live in comfort. . An- \ other thing that the citizens jA Cape — May should cry out against is the fact that the morning express goes into Wildwood instead of coming to this city as it always has for time out of mind up until last winter. It seems that the railroads are trying to give Cape May the worst of it. The Observer. See Frymire's Adv. on Page Eight. WHAT THEY STAND FOR Senator Harding's party is for American nationalism with peace; Governor Cox's party ie for an internationalism that would involve America in every European or Asiatic broil. The choice between the men and the policies should not be difficult. See Frymire's adv. on Page Eight.
