The church has for the last few years cared for two Armenian chil- j dren with its gift ^ of S120.00 each Christmas. This year our people sur-l prised, themselves by raising $300.00 : for this worthy cause, and sending it to "The 'Near East Relief." Beginning March 6th, the Rev. Edward E. Peterson, of Brooklyn, New ^ York, a celebrated evangelist will begin a series of meetings to last two I weeks. The two cottage prayer meetings being held every Thursday night are growing in interest and spiritual power. TAKES FORMER CAPE MAY PASTOR INTO CONFIDENCE In a sermon on the topic "What's In Your Cellar?" the Rev. Dr. Wil- ; iiam Dyrp McCurdy, of Grace Bap- ; tist Temple, 'Broad and Berks streets, Philadelphia, recently narrated what happened recently when he called on a young, husband. His host took him to tne kitchen, he said, and uncorked a bottle. "Take a whiff of that before we go downstairs," he was urged. The clergvmany took a whiff and. he added, "although my olfactory nerves were not trained along that line, it smeiled like whiskey." Then his host escorted him down to the cellar and proudly displayed the still in which he made the whiskey. "He seemed proud of it," the preacher said. "He told • me everyone has a- private still in his cellar nowadays." Dr. McCurdy asserted that in these ; days the cellar has become the most j important part of the house, partly j owing to the high price of coal. 16799 DIED in New York City alone from kidney trouble last year.

SURPRISES IN BIRIRMY PARTIES (Continued from page one) the twigs with a liberal filling in of marshnwijlows making it as a whole quite attractive and it was accompanied with the following: "As this is the anniversary of the . birth of our two dear friends we extend our congratulations to this jolly , party of hens." You surely deserve much credit To attempt any sort of a lark As most of our sex after fbrty Try to keep birthdays in the dark. This bouquet of spring flowers we're ' giving , With the greatest possible love Each blossom bears its own message But believe us not from above. We hope you will enjoy their fragAs with tears your eyes do fill And live to have many more birth- , days Is our yvish to "Amy and Lil." After quite a number of games and other entertaining features were indulged in after which the party . was invited to .the dining room and there another oddity was manifest in ; a large cake with 12 candles — one for . everybody there and one for the absent one "that was one version," another was that the candles represented ten years of life and for the two (120 years) or 60 years for each, exceptions to this was taken of course and in the absence of any proof this , was abandoned too, but there was a version that seemed to be agreed to j unanimously that at was par excell- ' ent in flavor especially with the oth- . er side dishes intended to be served with it. After which the clocks looked down and while they had the . same facial expression as usual, the ' party after wishing many more happy birthdays disbursed. Those present were: Mrs. Amy Lyle, Mrs. Lillie McGowan, hostesses, Mrs. William Porter. Mrs. Woodruff Eldredge, Mrs. Gilbert Hughes. Mrs. Alex Lyle, I Miss Carrie Douglass, Miss Helen I Porter, Mr. Woodruff Eldredge and Mr. Alexander Lyle. J SUNSHINE CIRCLE • A very successful tea was given on ! Wednesday afternoon in the base- j ment of the First Baptist Church, ' j by the members of the "Sunshine | Circle" which was well attended by;all denominations. Mrs. E. J. Jer- ) j roll, Teacher of the class was a de- 1 lightful hostess and provided en- 1 ^foyable amusements for the enter- 1 j lainment of the guests. MRS. MECRAY ENTERTAINS Mrs. Frank B.

Eldredge and Elizabeth ; • Edmunds Johnson, were united in the ' . holy bonds of matrimony, and on Saturday evening last, January 30th, j several members of their immediate . , family and a few friends gathered at : ' : their home on York avenue. West Cape May, to celebrate the sixty-first , ■ anniversary of this omportant event. We consider this a very extraordi- i nary event for a couple to have spent j I sixty-one years together, each help- j ! iog the other over life's pathway and i exercising a watchful care for each { • | other's welfare and safety. Capt. i I Eldredge, as he is familiarly known, i • : spent fifty-three years of his life In • active sen-ice as a Delaware Bay/and ■ • . River Pilot and can relate many in- | teresting stories concerning these ! ! years, which are both humbrous and ' ; j otherwise, for a number of years he was treasurer of the Pilots' AssociaI tion, a position of honor and trust, i . J which he very" ably filled. Capt. EldredgeTs a man of sterling qualities, hewing to the line every respect, never deviating from the path of right and truth, and a devout Christian gentleman. Mrs. Eldredge ttias .kept pace with him in her activities 1 and though an invalid and a sufferer for a number of years, she has been a devoted wife and mother, looking i well to the performance of her household duties and ever extending a hearty welcome to all who come into her home and though taken some- . what unawares on this anniversary, she_arose to the occasion and lent a helping hand in the preparation of the supper for the suddenly enlarged family. This dear couple who have passed the sixty-first milestone of wedded life are more than eighty years young and still able to enjoy the humorous side of life. --cr— -

Three sons were born to this couple, namely: Loring B. Eldredge, Joseph J. Eldredge and F. Goodell Eldredge. Joseph the second son, ■ passed away six years ago. Loring B. at present resides on Turnpike Road, Cape May, and F. Goodell, in Trenton, N. J. We sincerely wish that the lives of ; this dear couple may be spared for i some time to come and by their ex- I emplary living may be an inspiration I for good to many younger ones. — — 1 SILVER WEDDING i ANNIVERSARY HELD I Mr. and Mrs. J.
