Why Hibernate? | Have you heard a man asking: "How do you find • Business?" ■ This is the answer: "By going after it." ■ MR. MERCHANT ^ Cape May is a summer resort end during the summer is so overcrowded V? 3s that business is just pushed into your doors by the throng. So much so, M perhaps, that you have all that you and your clerks can do. That's when « . -Ca ' busine>o is good and > outadvertise. YOU don't find business then- It finds El 9 you. ■ But when summer is gone and the rush is over, what then? Do you ^ decide business is going to be poor, stop your advertising and hibernate? ® It Possibly you will say, "I don't need to advertise- I've been in this town for B & ten years and everybody knows me." w . 5 Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you lose JJj! B because your fellow competitor advertises, or of how much more business XC I- you would do if you did advertise? Everybody may know you and what B R business you are in, but everybody needs reminding continually that you a have something to sell that they need. vr ». - Advertising today, especially in newspapers, is the greatest business If getter there is. This is acknowledged by men who know; people read ad- XC v vertiseraents in newspapers- They have been educated to do so. Every | merchant and business man in Cape May ought to advertise It will in- ^ ■ ^ crease their business and build up the city from a summer resort to a year < I round town. r ; I You remember the story of JoHn Wanamaker. The first day he was in & business his receipts were $24.64. He kept the 64 cents and spent the $24 fdji the next day for advertising. We can't all duplicate that performance be- g I cause we can't all be John Wanamakers, but according to the best statistics v/ three per cent of gross sales should be put into advertising. f , ; Results will be sure If we all advertise in proportion to our business, ;X and advertise honestly and give service. A newspaper can bring people to lit your store or other place of' business, but it can't make people buy your |jj| goods- You or your clerks must' do that and it depends on the service yon S give as to how successful your business wjll be .and what results you will pi derive from your advertising. XC What is done in the big cities can be done right here in1 Cape May if H you will show the pep, give service and Adevrtise. g MAKE BUSINESS GOOD H Yau Can Do It Through the STAR AND WAYE ■ WE OFFER YOU the services of a trained advertising copy writer free —/ 5? of charge. f ■ WdB«WBX<BSBX(B><B)<EXB5<ID<B>«XH)<EKB5=(B)yEi<»<e

TBB" COOPER HOSPITAL , The-Cooper Hospital is just closing ! a -year of the most active work of the largeet volume in its history. The ex- 1 penditurss of the hospital for the year will amount to about $200-000 of which receipts from patients will . amount to' about $90,000, from en- . downier*, funds, about $50,000 and appropriations from city and county | of Camden, about $37-000, leaving a deficit of approximately $23,000 to be raised by indivpdal subscriptions. The work which the hospital is called upon to do is increasing very rapidly and during the last 8 months, the receipts from patients have very greatly decreased, owing to unem- I ptoyment. Extensive additions have ; been made to the hospital, which, when completed, will cost aout $250,- j 000, and which will thoroughly mod- ; ernize the various departments so t that it will be fully equipped to meet the requirements of a first-class institution. The destruction of the j laundry by fire has ' involved heavy extra expense, amounting to about $1,000 a month, which will be reduc- : ed after the completion of the new laundry, sometime in January. Of course the great volume of pa- ! tients treated in the hospital are residents of Camden and nearby counties, but a surprising volume of work has been done in behalf of residents of : Cape May comity. A careful analysis of patients discharged from the hospital Between January 1st, 1921, and December • 10th 1921, imkding about 80 per cent, of the work done during the year 1921, shows that 28 patients , Cape May county were treated in the public wards of the hospital, who were under its care 933 days These patients paid at ward rates their treatment $1,064, and free treatment was given amounting to : $851-80. 4j Ward rates are usually $1.50 per day, with some extra charges for opr. crating rooms, 'X-Ray, Obstetrical 1 and insurance cases. At the average 1 oost per patient in the hospital, treatment "was given to these patients, amounting to $1,866 in excess of ward rates, making a total service 1 measured in dollars, of $2,717-80, for " which no reTirejat-ion was made to 4 the hospital, wether by appropriation ^ of the county or municipalities. "Hie hospital acknowledges liberal . donations of supplies from the Reu y Cross Chapter and branches, needle- ■ vvork guilds, etc., of Cape May coun-

ity. J r In addition to the ward patients J above referred to, 31 perso..; were 8 treated in the private and semi-pri-I irate rooms of the hospital, remain- ? jfig 336 days and paid $1,466.20R EDWARD L FARR, - President. 1 : LOCATION OF FIRE ALARM J TELEGRAPH STATIONS; i 1 leys Can Be Obtained in Vicinity oi k Alarm Boxes ■ i 25^— Washington Street, near Schelf j anger's Landing. £ 32 — Washington Street, nea>- Union I ! 47 — Washington Street and Madi- % | son Avenue. £ I 54 — Lafayette and Bank Streets. ■ 58 — Broad and Elmira Streets. 65 — Pittsburgh and New Jersey % Avenues. | 69 — Stockton Avenue, between Jef- ( ferson and Queen Streets. £ 73 — Franklin and Washington f Streets. ■ 75 — Howard Street, opposite Stock5 ton Avenue.
