It is hoped that the ef- ! ' fects of these meetings will be mani- 1 " j.fcst in the coming weeks and in' the r other chifrches.

Nations With High Degree of Cultlvntlep That Are NowiOnly Memory I Jn Hletory*a Pages.'* Thousands of years ago — long before • the great western nations of today, - long before even Greek aud Roman ■ were heard of— there were more or - less advanced civilizations on both sides of the Pacific. China, for example. had grown Into a stable Mongol- | Ian kingdom perhaps 4,000 years before the beginning of our era. A ! Chinese author writes: "There Is no existing nation la the world that has . a larger past than China. She has . seen the rise and fall of the ancient Egyptian dynasties; the extension of the Persian empire; the conquests of Alexander; the Irresistible advance of the Roman legions ; the deluge of tho ■ Teutonic hordes from the north, and the birth of all the nations of modern Europe." The Japanese also, a people com- . pounded of varldus elements, but chiefly Mongolian olid Malayan, stood stood at the beginning of our era on a high plane of civilization, and even | then exhibited the tendencies and the I adapttveness which distinguish them 1 tothu-. : / Tlk-n away to the east In Centrnl -j I and South America, civilizations waxed and waned, reaching their high- | est development In the Aztec and In- j can empires, the latter of which was ] an extremely interesting example of despotic socialism. r.!!CKIE SAYS

THOMAS DORR SENSOR a Thomas Dorr Sensor, secretary of J the State Board of Examiners, who had been ill for several months, died i i at his home in Trenton on Monday night. I He was the chief of the Bureau of y | Credentials of the State Department . of Public Instruction and its organizI er. Largely through his influence the 1 whole state system of the certifies- •; tion of teachers was completely ! changed and the requirements made ) much more exacting. County certrfi- r i cates were abolished and all certifi- v I cates issued were state certificates, c validvin any part of the state. He be- j ' gan his career as a state official in 0 1905, and' has -continued in office y since. In earlier life he was princi- i . pal of the Millville schools and some- £ , what later occupied, an important position as principal hi Pittsburgh. He f was born in Ohio, but resi&ed in New j . Jersey the greater part of his life. t His greatest achievement was the £ . establishment of the summer school t . system of this state which has done ( . | more than any other single angency to t . | asfu.e good teacheis to all of the t ! , schools of the state, for here were £ , I made obtainable essential training in t . ! school management ^nd methods .of • . ; teaching and for several years, the t , ' only way a new entrant t6 the pro- ( , ; fessidn could obtain a New Jersey t i certificate was by taking one or- two t . summers at one of the summer , schools. The' summer school project f . whs first proposed to a selected com- j I pany of Cape May men in 19<>7 and . enthusiastically "adopted. For the ex- t penses of its first sessions, money j ■ was raised by subscription in this city t i and the school was established here as . a private enterprise and continued un- i . til 1913. r ■ i . It was successful almost from the t start and attracted each year a larger student body. In 1913 the idea was { adopted by the state and . made a . function of the-Department of Public t ' Instruction and removed from this ; ■ city to Ocean City for some mysteri- c ! ous reason which has never been di- { : vulged." At the same time four other i summer schools were ' established in c ■ other parts of the state under the ' Auspices of the State Board of Edu- j . cation and have continued since. t Mr. Sensor was father of the sum- { mer school idea and its earnest pro- ( moter. He. is entitled to ail of the t credit for its growth and for its effi- , ciency and value to the schools of this j . state, ( He bad a number of friends in this j locality and was well-known through- , out the state, as one of the ablest, j most energetic and most earnest and j enthusias'tie school men of the state. . The funeral, occurred at 3 o'clock , Thursday afternoon from his late i residence in Trenton. ( « STRAWBERRY CULTURE j After growing them more than 30 years, I feel assured no mistake has been made as to it being one of the, suVest money crops if grown proper- . ly. In my judgment, Cape May County is one of the best locations to grow 1 this fruit — taking the summer resort ! as a market for the fruit. From Gape May to Atlantic City the people could 1 come and get^them fresh picked. One f of the most discouraging features I for new beginners is length of time . 1 before the crop; expense of growing , I and, use of land. While this is objec- | ti6nable it is what keeps business i good, keeping the market bare com- ° I puratively. There is always a market % for this fruit if propeijy handled at a j fair price. , As to growing this crop, the land a should be in good state cultivation, following March or April. Enough g plants can be sold to defray expense^ of purchasing plants, fertilizer and ^ labor, so it is lrot a year of actual lay { out of monej:. Should farmers grow ^ ! enough to warrant buyers,1 they would come from Boston, New York and c Philadelphia, making a market here as , has bepn at Port Noms, and other i places^ also making/available fruit for | the home market. yt ^ I One of Yhe objections farmers^ make ' j is the harvesting of this crop. This is j easily overcome- if enough are grown . to get Italian labor to .do the picking. , } The. -\yriter had from 45 to 60 pickers, and -had personal charge for thirteen years on 18 to 20 acres of 1 berry land. It is very important to 1 know the variety best suited. Since the Gandy Prize Rave been crossed so as to' spoil ^s shipping qualities', the E best berry today is the Late Lipton, c and the Campbell Early, the two van- 1 eties making "a long season for the r crop. The farnfer should consider this enterprise nouyas'it means $300 an acre, which calrbe safely pared for ' to net you at, low prices the above r amount. Three acres, two of Lipton and one of Campbell, need ten or * twelve pickers. Much more might^be said on tKi# suject of interest to prospective growers. .John W.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE Advertising Accomplished in Modern Business and Why Business Men Should Advertise Now — Commercial Prosperity and Progress Depends Upon Advertising As a general principal every business man admits that it pays to advertise, but some times a business executive has doubts whether advertising is. effective in his own business whether he should advertise now When all the facts arq considered it absolutely certain that it pays to advertise NOW. Recently there was a meeting ,of one hundred national advertisers at Lake wood, N. J. These advertisers spend almost one-half a billion dollars year in advertising their names and their products. These advertisers decided that it pays to advertise NOW. Sixty-nine of these men stated that they would increase their advertising appropriation for 11)21, seventeen declared that their- advertising appropriation for this year would remain the same as last year, six were uncertain and only thirteen had decided reduce, slightly, their appropriations. In other words, these big success- - national advertisers know tha^rit i pays to advertise NOW. Here are some reasons why their 1 decision is correct and why if is good , business for you^nerchants to adverONE — Advertising searches out the ! respective customer. Two — Advertising makes possible ] the standardization or-prodgcts. I Three — Advertising stabilizes . sales and builds good wIlL Four — Advertising disseminates trade facts, announces new discoveries and consequently makes for increased efficiency and speeds up production. In other words, advertising is consumption insurance. The sale of any product depends upon three factors. upon general business conditions that are beyond the control of one manufacturer or dealer. Second, on the "ability of buyers to adopt their business to fundamental economic conditions. Third, upon the abilof the sales organization through advertising of every description and ffersonal soliditation by salesmen to create a desire for the particular product. The first two factors are beyond the control of a sales organization, particularly in a period of reorganization as at present. All the reason therefore why every organization - should put every ounce of energy and thought advertising NOW. "A GOOD PROVIDER" When it comes to being a "good provider," no man would pride himself on furnishing trash liberally for his family.

Roofing Economy Asbestos shingles are-called the lost forever shingle, because of the fact . that being made of asbestos and hydraulic cement, they are absolutely Indestructible by the elements, they are ' tough, and elastic. Thay can be ap- ! plied- over your old wooden shingles. ■ They stand today unappro'ached in the I line of roofings. They will last for1 'ever. ■ Ordinary cedar, cypress or redwood shingles -have at best, only an ephemeral life, and at the .seashore the usual process of decay sets in with the most startling rapidity, on account of their becoming saturated with_the saline air, in consequence of the hygroscopic character of which they remain damp. In contradiction of this, asbestos shingles being com- ' posed of those two indestructible ma1 terials, aAestos and cement, may be exposed to the action of the sea air or sea water without even undergoing ' the slightest deterioration or change, j They never require anjA paint, upon this account these shingles are by far t the cheapest roofing. „ I For prices and information write Hubert Joseph' ' BOX 254 !
