READING TUGS ]r ESCAPE STORM RAPID FALLING OF GLASS PROMPTS CAPTAINS TO SEEK REFUGE IN CAPE MAY HARBOR FROM APPROACHING STORM Two large Reading Coal Company | attached to coal laden barges put the Cape May Harbor ahead of last storm, where they rested in peace and comfort while a southaster prevailed along the coastIt is a frequent occurrence for boats of all descriptions to dodge storms in wonderful land-locked harbor. The time is now ripe for our progressive citizens to lay the advantages of this harbor before shipping men with the idea of making this an important shipping point and a port of entry. The Reading Coal Mines are connected direct by rail from the coal breakers to the breakers of the old Atlantic. During the winter months these coal barges are pounded and bumped I heavy ice for a distance of 105 miles with the waste of valuable time and much wear and tear on the hulls of these expensive boats. The coal could be shipped from the mines to the Cape May pockets and thence via chute to the barges and then to the clear open sea and to Boston ar any other port without the hundred miles I of ice floes. J This method would ease the overcrowded condition of the Philadelphia I docks and sidings. Board of Trade Endorses Theatre Project. ' The people of Cape May are anxi- ' ously awaiting favorable action on the ' part of our Commissioners on the pro- ' position presented to them for a new • opera house adjacent to Convention • Hall, on the beach front The sentiment seems to be about 880 in favor of same to two against it The Board of Trade at their meet- , ing Thursday evening unanimously ] passed a resolution recommending the i immediate adoption of the proposition; so that it will be in readiness for - ' this summer season. 1 ' With the Hotel Cape May to be open . ' again, and Congress Hall, we cannot i afford to pass the opportunity of securing an amusement feature of this ' high order, which is so badly needed. e CAPE MAY MUST GO AHEAD. s We cannot afford to let a few individt uals stand in the way of progre9s and advancement- . Our Commission should especially be active, wide-awake, progressive business men; men who have their coats off working for Cape May all the time. This is the only way - that we can keep up with the many •\ other competing seaside resorts.

ANNOUNCEMENT I lake this opportunity of announcing to the I public that I have bought out the Battery Service Station formerly conducted by W. - Steppacher, and wifl be pleased to take care of all Battery troubles. WALTER P. HUGHES i|jf j ^07^ I THE UNIVERSAL CAR Ifll The Ford One-Ton Truck ||j As a matter of fact we might almost as well call Ijfil it a Three-Ton Truck, for it very rarely carries a ||| smaller sized load. The owners of the Ford trade take Iffl advantage of the high qualities of materials whid. are III known to be put in the Ford car, take advantage of the ||| high quality of Ford workmanship which characterizes HI . Ford cars and they overload to the limiL. Well, the Ford truck haa never broken down with any of these overloads. It delivers expectations and double expectations, so far as carrying capacity is concerned, and while that is not fair to the truck, Btill the owners are satisfied. But the Ford one-ton truck, with its aluminum • f bronze worm drive, its greater weight and strength of frame and its incomparable power plant, is without a reasonable competitor in price, in service, in coat of operation. It is the lowest priced truck on the market, of equal capacity. No other truck on the market operates so economically and we believe there is no other truck that will give hs satisfactory and profitable re- . I suits. Our allotment is limited. Better leave your order without delay. FOCER AND MECRAY CAPE MAY NEW JERSEY 3 28% Price Reduction 1
