i 1777— FLAG DAY— 1922 |l - "Attention" | I Wednesday, June 14th, is our national Flag Day, and it is con I fidently expected that all loyal citi- " zens will show and display on that day an American flag — "Old Glory" — ] for this day in the year 1777, marked . the adoption of the Stars and Stripes > our national emblem. One hundred and forty-four years | has been flung to the breeze as the symbol of Liberty and the oppressed of every nation have found . shelter under its folds- Today 100,000,000 < people claim it as their flag and , would rally unitedly to its defense if ( it were assailed- The few occasions which stand out consnicuouslv because - of indignities which our flag has suf- 1 fered have been induced by a spirit < so un-American, so foreign to our con- , stitution and traditions as to be onlv such exceptions as to prove the general, rule, yet by them we are admonished that we can not too careful- • | ly guard our precious emblem. ! There arc many things upon which we should pride ourselves about our I flag. It is the oldest flf" in the ' \ world. Nearly $11 nations of the ■ earth have been made over since the ' | United States flag was born and usually the flag representing them have , have undergone many changes. The - flags of Japan and China, nations j that were old when Christ was born, | have been changed in the last few , ' | years. • The United States' flags fly over' j nearly one-tenth of the earth's drv : land, and nearly one-twentieth of all I the -eople of the world owe it al- . legiance. It is the only real national . : flag in the world. Our flag is the one , j.of a nation that never was defeated •on land or seaTherefore, all native born Amerir cans, as well as those naturalize*' i citizens that have sworn allegiance to . ! the United States, see to it that ou" I I starry banner is floated to the breez* [Ion next Wednesday, the 14th day f I j June.

In addition, he' is reputed to | r ! the the luckiest of screen stars. "Bill | Farnum luck!" is a common express ' | sion to characterize any unusual ''stroke of good fortune. While "Perjury," the 'William Fox i special super-picture which comes to r I the Palace Theatre . Wednesday, the ■ 14th, was being filmed, William Farnum needed all his energy, endurance ' and good luck; for not only was he " creating the most exacting, role of his ' screen career as Bob Moore in "Peri jury," but he was involved in several • separate enterprises besides. °|* One day when the almost indefa- • ! tigable star was weary and worried, ' i walking with head down, his eyes ® I caught a tiny gleam of light.

"Farnum luck!" chorused 'his friends and associates "William Farnum made a success of every enterprise he has undertaken,, besides creating a role which promises rank with his Jean Valjean in Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables"; but luck had little to do with it- Farnum, beginning his stage career at the age of 11, has been a hard and conscientious worker throughout his career. i~< , at, „ iv nrrn cnxnni

W. Maroney, of Atlantic City, and j; Mr. William Porter, president of the <• local Board of Education- Mr. Bwia-Y j yate, superintendent of school, was> the" master of ceremonies. |t f As the curtain raised, it presented • a a beautiful spectacle of a large num- : w ber of the attractive students of the t ' High. School, which made up the chor- a us, and banks of flowers. As the n music began the senior procession moved to the seats on the stage in a v stately and di~iified manner, after c which the beautiful setting was com- t plete and the exercises began- a The salutatorian of the class of fc 1922, Miss Harriet Mecray, p*senied fc x her well written essay, "Recognizing fc r Opportunities," in a most pleasing, fc - deliberate and distinct manner. The fc o | valedictory then was presented by fc |] 'James Cavalcante, who also delivered t ,, his essay, "The Spirit of Service." : J This he did in a morst forceful and ] confident manner and indeed, waxed t x eloquent as he closed his essay with o an appeal to the people of Cape May , e for a greater interest in their com- i .. munity and the spirit to serve it- H:s ] e farewell words were well chosep, 1 e meaningful and to the point- The is class can well be proud to have had . p. the two speakers mentioned above to i j represent them . at their commencement- i k. The diplomas were presented by ■ j Mr. William Porter, president of the , i. Board of Education, who followed the ie presentation by a very short but - [j pointed address.

This well known shaker held his audience at the ton-notch }f of attention from start to finish b" n_ both his humor and his splendid adap;gltion of humorous incidents to real p. practical lessons of life. As a speakJt er, Dr. Maronev has few equals in the State, as many who heard him will ^ agree and the Board of Education were most fortunate in securing his services. The music of the occasion was well - hiubil U1 U1C IHU1B1UI1 was wen

It is most encouraging to the teachers to see the interest on the part of the parents as manifested by their willingness to come out. on such an inclement night The public schools closed on Thursday, June 8th, for the current year and will re-open in September.

CAPE MAV WILL NIWE BIG 4TH : ST ' G PREPARATIONS ARE UNDER f: WAY TO MAKE THE FOURTH " OF JULY OF 1922 A DAY LONG f TO BE REMEMBERED Jj Cape May is assured of a real Independence Day, according to the s plans of the Fourth of Jul*- Celebra- J, •ion Organization, announced on Wed- t nesday night. An extensive and in- t; •cresting program has been arranged, n and it is assured that it will be car- b ried out to the smallest detail. s The organization is .composed of v representatives ftpm the various j municipal betterment societies of the j, including the Progressive League, the Board" of Trade, the j. Woman's Community Club, Veterans of Foreign Wars. American Legion, r various lodges, and other organiza- b •ions, and under the leadership of ! Hal oh H. Spring, has been working g i weeks to nrepare a schedule of £ i festivities which will rival anything I the Atlantic coast. The committee ; >been nulling together in a wr ■ which snells success and the result is exported to surpass any program and e fexecirted since the war. Owing to the capability and energy I of Mr. William Porter, chairman of t ithe music division, four complete „ hands will be in line, who will dis- - tribute enough martial music to satis- e ; the most patriotic citizen in town. The events of the day will be intro- . dived by a salute to the flag, a very a imnressive ceremony, which will be j conducted -under the auspices of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the . ^American Legion- At 10 00 A.

" Cape May and Cape May Point are 1 in Cape Mav county, just the same as e Ocean City,' Sea Isle City, Wild wood, I Stone Harbor and several* other places. " These other places have been benefitted by the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars of the counII ty's money in their development, „ while Cape May and Cape May Point have had very little aid of this kind although paying large sums regularly ,. in county tax. Why should they be so persistently ignored? Why does the Board of Freehalders hesitate to '■ grant the small boon of a right of „ way across the turnpike to Cape Ala Point, when it is absolutely needed „ for the development of Cape May „ Point, that there shall be railroad facilities? Afso, the extension of the Pennsylvania railroad to the Point, n will save to the extent of some thousn,', ands of dollars, the wear and tear on I the county roads' by trucks which are now being used to hauj immense quantities of sand and gravel. Play '" fair, gentlemen. "FASCINATION" e Spanish fire and Y'ankee "pep" are 5, a strong combination. It explains i- why Dolores went through a series I- of vivid adventures., which almost y ended tragicallv for her. Her own II father's reputation was at stake unit- ti! a last-minute confession cleared 3 "JD a base falsehood- The cause of it n all is pictured by Mae Murray in g "Fascination," coming to the Liberty n Theatre. d • ■ ■ n NEW JEWELRY STORE TO OPEN A first class jewelry store will soon i- be opened in the building formerly r known as the Lyric Theatre, on Beach avenue.

FARMERS WILL MEET WITH I COUNTY CHAMBER f The Cape May County Chamber of Commerce will meet at South Searille on Friday, June 16th, in the , Hall, at eight o'clock, daylight saving time- The Chamber will be f the guest of the South Searille Grange. This will be the final meetting of the season and no further meetings will be held until the annual meeting in September. Arrangements are being made to one, or probably two, «romi- ® nent State speakers, and a very in- *■ teresting meeting is promised. Fur- c reports will be heard on the ^ membership drive campaign, which is • held to secure 5 thousand as- 1 sociate members, to create an ad- c vertising -fund, and to cause the Cape 1 County Chamber to have -£he s individual membership roll of ' any commercial or civic organization |. in the country. j At the meeting in Avalon 'ast ' month almost one hundred new men- j ' were voted upon. '1 J A luncheon will follow the business session, prepared by the ladies of \ South Searille. * ABOUND TOWN Washington street is much improved since scraping; Grass and weeds are running wild on manv properties and disfiguring 1 the a-pearance of the sidewalks and 1 lots. ' Summer schedules will soon be in effect on both railroads. • The Fourth of July committee has got down to business and formulated ' a program for the day which appears another column.The Women's Community Club has 1 petitioned the commiss:ori to aid in the -expen e of retaining the Hygienic 1 Nurse and to aopoint a woman on the ' of Health. | ■ The summer nolice have been elect- '• ed and one is cn dut'" a* the C-onven- 1 tion Hall already. The whole force 1 will be complete by July 1st This to mind the feet that nothirmore important -o the we'l-being ■ and imn-ess of a city than the appearcf its police. -One of the first : impressions made upon a stranger of observing habits is that made by a smart, active, well dressed, intelligent ■ police force, and the manner in which the officer wears his uniform and personally conducts himself. School is over until fall and the and girls are smiling. The front of the city hall is improved by flowers and a clean grass plot. The Hoard of Health regular meet- ; ing on 5th hist. Regular business conducted. USING THE TELEPHONE ' In most respects the telephone is . such an easy instrument to use that i we are very likely to overlook a few siqiple and really obvious practices that ought to be observed in its useFor instance, the number of people .' who not talk directly into the mouthpiece of the transmitter but speak across the mouthpiece, and often with ' their lips several inches away, is really surprising. Let the telephone user observe his own practice in this respect and bear in mind thgt the . correct position is with the lips but ' a fraction of an inch in front of the mouthpiece. To talk with the mouth six inches away fiom the transmitter cuts down the volume of sound which . enters the mouthpiece thirty to forty ' times- It is as unsatisfactory as con- . versing with a person when he is ' thirty feet away rather than when he j is but three or four feet away. In case either natty to a telephone conversation has any difficulty in understanding, a marked improvement will result from talking slowly and distinctly. In fact, at no time when using the telephone is anything gained by rapid speaking. As an aid to understanding a tele- 1 e ohone message when one's surround- 1 ° ings are noisy, the transmitter mouthpiece may be covered with the hand " while listogftg. .This shuts out the extranegHs noise from the transmits t^r and prevents the reproduction of " this noise in the receiver which the ' listener holds to his ear, where it would tend to confuse the distant speaker's voice. y These three practices, although exc tremely simple, if consistently ob15 served, will be found to yield results ° amply justifying the slight attention they require. ^ | y RECEIVE LEGAL DEGREES Three Cape May boys were gradu- . ated with the Class of 1922, Dicldn- ' sop School of Law, at the Commencement Exercises, which occurred last „ Tuesday at Carlisle, Pa- Those who received the degree of Bachelor of 56 Law, were George M. Stevens, Harry J Tenenbaum and T. Millet HandThe Commencement Exercises were attended by Mr. and Mrs. Tenenbaum. Mr. Lewis T. Stevens and Mr- and * Mrs- Albert R- Hand and Mr. and is Mrs. A W. Hand-^ ^ it SETTING AN EXAMPLE i- A local merchant recently stated d that he would be triad to have his 'J shed come down, to coincide with the n general improvement scheme, if y someone' would take it down for himSomeone had enough civil pride to ' take the merchant up on his proposiN tion and entirely afiis own expense, n removed the shed- That someone was y Albert little. h He deserves the congratulations and the emulation of everybody.

OF WAY FOR P. R. REASSURED MAY COUNTY FREEHOLDERS HEAR YEAS AND NAYS ON CAPE MAY POINT LINE. NO OPPOSITION At their regular meeting on Tuesday at Cape May Court House the Cape May County Freeholders discussed the application of the Pennsylvania railroad for a right of way to run their tracks to Cape May Point The anticipated road when completed will run from the Grant street station to the old power house ' and then switch off to the south side of the turnpike and run parallel with Ithe pike to Cape May Point It's object will be mainly to carry freight, I but the application specifies the carj rying of passengers and freight Latjer when the Cape May- Lewes ferry (becomes a reality it will carry paswhich arrive by boat to Cape May at a nominal fare, doing away with excess 'itney rates which Have been such a detriment to Cape May in the past The proposition was opposed by a few of the property owners in South Cape May on the grounds that it . would be a nuisance, but the arguments were not thought substantial enough to consider. Resolutions were received and read from the Cape May City Board of ; Commissioners, the Cape May Prorigressiye League and the Boron : 'Council of West Cape May requesting the Board of Freeholders to look up- ; on it favorably. i A delegation of about thirty -(five : members of the Cape May Progresi sive League, including the president rice president, were in attendand several of them addressed . the board giving good reasons why i the right of way should be grantedThe board as a whole seemed to ■ thinnk it a good thing as they in- ; structed their solicitor, Palmer M. ■ Way, to procure the right of way : from the different municipalities r through which the road will run and i to take what legal steps are neces- • sary and report at their next regular i meeting. FREEHOLEDRS' DOINGS At the Tuesdav meeting of the . Board of Freeholders, the solicitor was instructed to secure the permission of the municipalities through 1 which the West Cape May-Cape May Point railroad tracks are to be run. This action was taken because of protests from some of the property owners along the right of way. s The county engineer was authoriz- ' t ed to have borings made for the Grassy Sound bridge and to expend a s sum not to exceed $1,000 for the pur- , pose- The engineer was also instruct-^*" " ed to proceed with plans for a bridge to be 24 feet wide and that will susIj tain a minimum load of 20 tons, h Craythorne & Nickerson were s awarded the contract to replank the e Richardson's1 Channel bridge.
