ANOTHER LIABILITY The hookworm of modern civilian- I Hon is about as apparent and insidi- I cub in our fair city as in any other. | The excesaant barnacles of the incubus of our moderndsfm stand out prom- [ inently upon all the avenues of en- 1 trance. The first impression created 4X the introduction to them is not | likely to be favorable. Nor are the j blots in the internals of our city overshadowed by its many beauties and attractions. Political economists have not yet agreed upon the application of a practical solution of the "nth dimension" of "the dismal science." Consequently we are enjoying all the experiences j of preceding civilizations and are con- j fronted by the same conditions which j ultimately destroyed them. Until the common, every -day voter] and citizen absorbs the method of ob- ] Ifteration, conditions will remain as they are. Consider the vista presented at the western entrance of our beloved city. How imposing are the objects called boroes! How fascinating the appearance of the smithies and stables ! The Shoe Emporium near the bridge greets you with open arms, an object at once poetic, esthetic and artistic. Contemplate the East end. The artistic might possibly make a good picture but a sight at the realities would acarcely invite a second visit. Cogitate upon the beauties of Gas«iUe, St. John street, Goat Alley, Rotten Row, Osbora street, Barnsboro. Ebnira street, and Shaw avenue.. Only the pen of Dickens could describe tfce ramshackle, highly-ventilated j •hacks and cabins called residences, dear to the heart of the people of j color. St. Giles, and the Easts ide are j much superior. It is scarcely understandable that landlords deKght to hold such property mad have the nerve to collect fron. them. la it not time that such cancerous pores were removed from our midst and replaced by modern and respectable houses? The landlords can do ft if they are inclined. It certainly would be worth while to furnish ac- _ eommodatinos wherein the pariahs and peons of our modern civilization may ( have a chance to become good, clean and inviting citizens.

Id. Onner Locklear i. Hie Man who Gave the World its 4 Grenteet Thrill in t "The Sky wayman" E. The Greatest Airman the World Has s. Ever Known in a Drama of Life in and Thrills Above the deads *' Nobody but Lt Onner TodrUnr ® could have made "The Skywayman." ' Ever since he first won fameby leap- *" ing. From one airplane to ftrother in mid-air— a feat he performed more B than 300 times— he has held first 0 place among daring airmen. In "The Skywayman," which is a William Foot e Special Production, he shows that this n exploit by no means exhausted his | n capacity for devising new and spec- i tacuktr feats. g Ten per cent of the profits from the ' s exhibition of '"Hie Skywayman" e throughout America will be given by | , Fox Film Corporation to the families 1 1 of LA. Locklear and his pilot, Lt. j h Milton Elliott — who acted as his pilot \ r ip the filming of "The Skywayman." . f Hie picture stands as a record of g Lock] ear's great achievements as an j e explorer of the air. This great darma of the air will I r> stand as a record of the courage of ! ; two American aviators who faced . danger willingly for the cause of sci- ) ■ ence. Locklear took long odds, not j for the applause of the crowd or even for the love of the game alone, but because what he learned in the air was to be useful for all mankind. 1 Locklear himself would have been [ j sufficient to make this picture a sue- j cess. A splendid cast is thrown in - for good measure. This includes j Louise Lovely, formerly William Farnum's-leading woman in Fox plays i t and now a William Fox star in her 3 own right. This picture will be shown at the - Palace Theatre on Wednesday and Thursday, December 8 and 9. A CHRISTMAS SUGGESTION i4 ? Give her a year's subscription to her ; favorite magazine.

If there U any i) 11 1 H la it has been wall concealed for thereat few years. Cape May could and would have a splendid, representative basket ball '' team this season, if the project could be assured of the citizen's support, is But this support will probably not be forthcoming; and it follows that oar basket ball season will be about like our baBeball season, which, as it is ^ well known, wasn't. The good people who are opposed to these ^jorts, were probably opposed n to the new high school and the Oon- ^ vention Pier, are now opposed to the * proposed new theatre, and will in all e likelihood, fight tooth and "»'l a prox position to build a city hall .which will s ! arise Aortly. s The High School will have a good " season. If the Legion arranges a j schedule, it will probably result in a e 1 long string of victories. " But nine- •. j tenths of the people in Cape May will y 1 neither know nor care. s 1 Let's get our shoulders under the _ j spoke of every wheel that will move t Cape May even a little bit forward. f FIRE AT CAPE MAY , , COURT HOUSE I : The bakery at Cape May Court f House owned by Robert Elmer was I I practically destroyed by fire Wednes- - 1 day morning.
