Communications will not be considered unles* signed. Troth well told" is the one beet advertising motto. Will your advertisement sound like the voice of a peddler. shooting his wares, or the voice of a friend, telling the news? The fine art of professional advertising is to attract the public without shouting. SMALL BOARD FREEHOLDERS Shall we substitute in this county' • small boai-d of freeholders for the present system of representation from each of the cities and townships? .This is one or thei questions which is to be decided at the coming elections and it requires attention and thought from" all legal voters. The small board idea is the popular one and would be the most business like, system but voters must realize that its success will depend absolutely upon the character of the men selected to hold the positions. 'It is not a question of politics but one of business and to ge the best results it will be essential that men be selected with particular reference to .their ability and character. The right men will be able to materially reduce expenditures and to secure greater value for the' money expended- Our voters murttn^aken to the fact that ho have thfe proper public service ye must have men who will consider the public interest above all other considerations. If they do not adopt this point of view there is no hope of amending present conditions in the public service. The mere substitution of three men for fourteeh will mean nothing, unless there are radical changes in methods and management. The socalled politics which -has aflicted Cape May County so long, must be eliminated and unselfish business organibation effected- After voting for the smaller board there must a fol; tow-jiV in interest on the part of the responsible voters to see that the . change sfyill mean something mores than a mere change of form- The complacent "Let George do it," will not answer. There should be a grejt upheaval of public sentiment in opposition to abuses whenever they occur, not once in a lifetime only. CITY AFFAIRS At the regular meeting of the City Commission held Tuesday, October 16, it-was reported that thd^ire hydrants which were out of- order in West Cape May had been put in good condition.

^ SCHOOL ATTEND A NCR If office and factory workers were permitted to absent themselves when they felt like it from their places of employment business would run very inefficiently and probably go' to smash. People who do not work * regularly and are not reliable in their .occupations are usually disK charged- In the schools regular attendance and punctuality are just as l" necessary as in business. The work r* is thrown into confusion for time ^ must be taken to explain" things ewer J arid over again for the benefit of trie absentees If you were to visit a 11 class the day after a pupil has been ' absent you would find the teacher devoting "at least half the time to exH plainiilg to the absent one the same things she explained" to the whole class the iiay before. This ...cans retardation, of the entire ^i*s who shoulti at that time be receiving new instruction- W srie does not give the absentee extra time it is impossible fpr him to grasp the new work and his reward is failureYet if school authoroiies of a com-munity-attempted to run the schools on a strictly -business basis and expelled thofee who did not' attend regularly the parents would revftt. On many occasions parents have said, "Do not send" the truant officer after my boy or girl,, if they are absent it is my business." A certain amount y- of tardiness -and absence cannot be e helped but even that does great dam- „ age. Man^- parents- keep they' children s out of school on the most trivial ex- ? cuse such as going on a pleasure trip, n I going gunning, visiting friends, or j. doing an errand. This does great ihr jury to the, morale and interest in the B school beside retarding progress. If. 13 the school could secure the same regy ular attendance, subject of course to - the absence i.ri case of illness, that 1 business concerns get, the ordinary . courses .would be better taught and t more qu'icki>> completed in our 1 schools. /- r School is a busjriess, an enterprise, , in fact the most valuable enterprise . to any community and it is the busL r ness of every pupil to do the regular ,. work of, the school and if that is int terrupted the results of education ; are not secured just as the same in- , terniption destroys the work , of a . business concern. . 1406 PHEASANTS Pheasants to the number of 1406 • were set free late this summer and wood cock 'Shooters report having seen a number this week, in and. about Cape May and Atlantic Counies. .

Sir: — It certainly seems a pity - r tha^ husbands and fathers should be held up to the ridicule and dis1 respect shown in "The Truth About Husbands." Were the al1 leged "truths" confined to the one purticiular man in the picture it would not be So bad, but the statements are of a general and sweeping nature. For in5 stance: "A male* animal has I learned the lesson of lift before f he becomes a husband and al. '• ways SOMEBODY pays for the experience-" Such a statement can only come I from one who has spent a disc si pa ted bachelorhood and thinks, . , everyone else has done the j same- To iaiy that all men have before marriage entered into - some liaison with a woman is' too i libellous and too false to be al1 ' lowed to pass unchallenged!
