TWO BRIDGES THE ISSUE CAPE MAY COUNTY CHAMBER 3- OF COMMERCE MEETS AT ; r- CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE AND < s- MAIN TOPIC IS THE OCEAN I ,e CITY TOLL BRIDGE AND THE I ie PROPOSED BRIDGE BETWEEN t rt SOMERS' AND BEEZELEY'S r POINTS i — — i j, The Oape May County Chamber of | e n Commerce met at Oape May Court . j. House last Thursday evening in the j ^ High School building. t y The meeting was presided over by f President Luther C Ogden and upon ^ roll call all mentoers were found to ^ y be present. v Hon- Lewis T- Stevens reported for y the legislative committee that the j committee had disposed of three mat- t 5. tere- The first being the question of ( freeing the toll bridge at Ocean City. The committee having taken c t. the matter up with the Legislators. j The seoond matter was the salaries ? " of the incoming freeholders, which the chairman stated would be in Oape * May county $1,000. d The third matter was that of the ^ Oape May-Lewes ferry bill which had 6 passed the Senate and -would go be- f e fore the Assembly on Monday, Feb- * ruary 27th, in all probability. n The transportation committee re- F ported that the matter of night light- 11 ^ ing of railroad crossings had been taken up with the expectations that a r* crossings would be better lighted this 0 T season- And also, that the matter of j1 h j train connections with N#v "fork * trains at Winslow Junction had been ® ^ successfully negotiated and that connections can now be made on the e e 12^8 train. ^ The publicity committee reported that they would meet with the Free-J® holders in a few days and take the j * r' matter of advertising up with tj-at body- 'I Mayor Joseph Champion, of Ocean jn . City, reported that the majors of all | v the resorts, with the exception of ! n Wildwoo<l, -which had been represent j° ,. ed by H- Foster Goslin, president of c e the Board of Trade, had met at Oape " ( May Court House and taken up the J" y details -of a bus line between Cape ^ l_ May ju»d Ocean City and intermediate ' v , points, and that a committee, headed 1 g by City Solicitor Stevens, of Cape * . May, was now drafting an ordinance ~ for the resorts- It being the desire 1 to have a uniform ordinance for all 0 and to eliminate unfair competition ° ^ so^ that a big line could be expected 8 to give year round service- * 1 Mayor Smith, of Wildwood, stated that, while Waldwood had already 8 passed an amended ordinance intended to meet the bus -question that the f city would co-operate with the others : to fonvaixl the movement to get real * » bus line serviceA special committee appoint ed to ® investigate the by-laws and ascertain ^ if the County Board of Agriculture could be admitted into the Chamber reported favorably and President Og- e den extended an invitation for the ^ Board to present its application for membership. a Under new business Samuel Lan- * ning of the Wildwood delegateer-pre-sented a resolution for adoption re- p questing the State legislature to re- 9 peal the full crew law. This matter being one of the most important now w before the State officials. The reso- n lution was passed unanimously. Delegate Lan ning Myers, of Wildwood next requested an expression from the chamber as to whether the county favored the adoption of day- j, light saving time this summer or not. L Mayor W. Court right Smith explained that Mr. Dice, of the Reading „ Railroad had asked the city of Wild- y wood if daylight time would be adopt- , ed here on the same date as Phila- « delphia and lW York made the change- , * Mayor Joseph Champion, of Ocean g (Sty, stated that his resort bad found jj, little merit in the adoption of the new - tune schedule- p Mayor Fitch, of Sea Isle City, stat- - ed that $bey had an ordinance in *| 1 favor of adopting the daylight earing I ; time but were awaiting the action of ' | the rest of the county through the - Chamber of Commercei Hon.

Thelli»ytf|7pj«E SEEDBOOKrlvLt swaassaem a wm nm»T quest to the Atlantic county assemasking them to support the when it cames up- The motion was carried. Delegate Samuel Lanning, of Wildwood, presented a resolution for adoption that the charriber go on record as favoring the building of the Somers' Point to Beezriejds Point bridge- The resolution was amended read "and that the State bear the expense." A battle of oratory followed chiefly between the Ocean Oity and Wildwood delegationsOcean CSty wanted the resolution on the table at least until the . bill for the taking over of the Ocear. ; Toll bridge has gone throughThe Wildwood delegation took the • stand that the toll bridge mast be freed anyway and the newer propo- , sition will not interfer at all, but will ] give a direct access from Atlantic ; county without the necessity of a detour through Ocean City, and over a ] section of toad now well nigh im- < passable- 1 After a long debate the resolution was laid on the table and in all ] probability will again appear at the , next meeting of the chamber- , It appears from conversation with , all the delegates that the upper part | of the county is very much in favor of the Somers' Point to Beezeley's g Point bridge and the only dissenting ] section being the Ocean City group. This, of course, is not to be wonder- , ed ait because of the fact that all south bound traffic from up-state and g New York must go thro'tgh that re- ( I sort to reach this county unless the < -j Slavs Landing route be taken. Travle! from Atlantic City is growing t } heavier each year and all this must j [now go through Ocean City and it g 'would be strange if that resort did I not favor a free bridge and no other ^ |one. The remainder of the county well see that Ocean CSty is look- j ' ing to her own interests and no one t blames her for that attitude but it is j. I likely that the county as a j whole will at last prevail and that t the new project will eventually go c to completion. A resolution requesting the State j Legislature to take action to prevent ( oil dumping into the waters off the j owelty resorts was presented and $ adopted- All the resorts are equally ( affected by this oil nuisance and President Ogden stated that he had j letter from the officials of Miami t Beach asking what the resorts in this j section were doing about it. So that j it is evident all the Atlantic seaboard ' v will eventually be forced to push through some form of legislation ! restraining the ships from ruining 'j the beaches and killing food fish in j their waters. After the business session of the | j evening was over an entertainment^ given which was pleasing- Mrs- 1 Jesse Ludlam, of Court House, sang|t number of popular airs, musical 1 1 selections were rendered by the "Court House Orchestra and motion ( j pictures depicting scenes on the fam- [ j Seal) rook farms, were shown- j j The evening was brought to a close j p with a bountiful luncheon in the base- L, ment of the schoolNEW JERSEY PRIMARY ,*!

SCHOOL CONCERT WELL ATTENDED Those residents of Gape May who were fortunate enough to hear the " concert presented by the combined 1 High School and Grammar Schools in (the High School building last Thure ' day night, were well repaid for their | efforts, as the performance of the [children was remarkable in many respects. Owing to the necessary postponement of the event, very few of the ) High School students were able to be present; great credit is due those who oouid come, both for their interest and the excellence of their singing. The program opened with a com-. Lined chorus of boyq' and girls' voices [ in selections from various operas, among them II Trovatore and Aida These beautiful melodies, always favorites, were especially well sung, and received much applause from the audience. Miss Jean Walters, of the Freshclass, sang very pleasantly, "Why Don't You?" and "The Last after which the High School program was ended with the tinging of several familiar songs by the entire chores- These well known airs sounded with new life and \}gor, and though not so difficult as the first of songs, proved just as popular. The second pant of the program, nn ' operetta by the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh , and Eighth Grades of the Grammar School, was preceded by music from the High School Orchertia- This organization, new this year, has made rapid strides in the past few months and now boasts of the following members: Violinists, Weaver Howard, Howard True) and, Kenneth Miller, George banjo-ma. Win, Harold clarinet, Albert Johnson. Great credit is due Miss Ball, instructor in music, for her work in building up the ©rchertra, which plays every morning for the assembly exercises. The Grammar School operetta, Lsle of Jewels," was. excellent. music was very sprightly and pirating, and the entire program in charge of Miss Ball, who deserves great commendation for the excellence of the singingWEST CAPE MAY The ladies of the American Legion witii to thank the people for helping them with the sock social.
