Our efforts have been met with , nothing. No defense, no acquies- ' cence. It has been said, "But there ; nre few accidents " This can be said • no longer. There have been four accidents , within the last two weeks, some serious ones- There has been a number of accidents in the same period ' but narrowly averted by the skill of ] driversWashington street, and streets in , " the business section adjoining Washington street, are narrow, and con- ! etantly crowded. There are no traffic policemen at corners. Everyone "jay walks," that is, crosses the street between the street intersections- This condition makes driving difficult and dangerous and walking fraught with peril. The traffic problem would not be , solved by prohibited parking on Washington street, but it would be <*reatly simplified. Those driving in Wildwood recently will recognize the tfuth of the statement that driving on Pacific avenue (Wildwood's main street) is as easy as driving on Madison avenue here, since Wildwood's recent regulation of parking. Is convenience to outweigh safety, , or shall we have prohibited parking? , A few self-imposed regulations on pedestrians, too, would not be out of place. It is probably safe to say that 75 of accidents are due to negligence on the part of pedestrians. After years of training ihe rail- : Toads 'have taught all but fools to stop, look and listen- But the streets . have far more traffic than railroads, ®nd are productive of far more acci- ' dents- Should we not stop, look and listen before crossing the street? CLEAN THE BEACH Cape May's matchless strand, the boast of generations, is still worthy of all the praise aocorded it. It has been, and is so "ood, and Cape May is so famously fine, that a prominent » French shore resort is proud to be known as the "Cape May of Europe " That is worth while remembering. A beach so excellent, a reputation - so strong, should not be impaired by ! neglect. But the beach is being neg- \ leeted, as witness the litter of large rocks, piles of shells, driftwood, pa pers, bottles, and "other articles too ! numerous- te'ihention," which mar it. It makes little diffbreribe whose du- ! ty it is to keep the beach in orderIn some sections, it may be up to~~ri«^ parian owners. But the final responsibility rests on the city. The department of streets is «ffi«ent. The streets are kept scru- . pulously clean and are well watered.' Public buildings are well conditioned. ) The condition of them is an asset. : The condition of the beach is a lia- ! fcOity. We would not tolerate a col- • lection of rubbish on the Convention I Hall- Why should we allow it on the | bathing beach? Let's clean the beach! There are hundreds of people in Cape May who see the harbor but infrequently. These would be surprised St its business-like aspectThe harbor of today, once a natural landlocked waterway used only by fish, is now the scene of bustle and activity. A Cape May-Wildwood Ferry put-puts back and forth, giving hourly service and naval boats are nearly always in evidence. Pleasure and commercial fishing boats ply t<r and from the famous banks; fishing excursions load and unload; hun- — dreds of barrels of fish are packed and freighted, and on regular schedule the S- S. "Seattle" steams majestically in to discharge its cargo of passengers and freight As a resort feature the harbor is unique and imoortant, commercially it is our best bet. Everything must be done to encourage and develop haibor activities, and to put the harbor in its proper place. President Harding's stand on the mine and railroad strike is more than pleasino- It has been received with enthusiasm as incontrovertible evidence of the executive's strength and initiative"Go back and run your mines," he said, implying United States nrotection and backing. This is tffFAhithat has been hoped for during the turbulent weeks just passed; it is gratifyingly reminiscent of veltThe right to strike is still recognized, but the right to picket is not- The ruination of private business by industrial tie-ups, perhaps cannot be always avoided. The stoppage of public utilities, as coal and railroads, can, must and will be prevented. Conditions have brought about a show down between President Gomp ers and President Harding. We believe Harding holds the cards1 1

CONSTANCE TALMADGE IN "THE PRIMITIVE LOVER" ! Constance Talmadge in her latest j First National attraction, "The Primitive Lover," will be the feature at the City Pier Theatre, Wednesday and Thursday, July 26 and 27. This is i from an original story by Edgar wynThe star plays the role of a ro- g • mance-stricken wife who abhors the g I idea of domesticity and household {5 routine. Her thoughts run to the gal- | ; lant romance of bygone days -which 3 • she absorbs from all the best sellers b : that the library shelf holds. At this ■ g 1 opportune time a former lover, who . g i had supposedly perished during an 0 ' expedition to South America, returns, e I His ideas of romance and his cave- i g man methods appeal to the girl who g. builds air castles of men of his type j a! and stands in striking contrast to the I 5 , practical every day sameness of her j 5? i husband. From this unique situation the pic- j f| . ture develops a plot that revolves ar- S • ound an interesting story at the same •= time that it bristles with comedy and ) • humorous situations. Miss Tal- V i madge's talent at interpreting comedy C ■ scenes in such previous productions f ■ as "Wedding Bells" and "Polly of the g Follies" has been amply demonstrated > and "The Primitive Lover" offering / < as it does an entirely new outlet for V i her ability to depict humor, promises n, i to be rare entertainment. v Harrison Ford, who was recently / ; seen as leading man in Norma Tal- j i madge's hit, "Smilin' Through," has J the part of the husband, while Ken- J , neth Harlan is cast as the novelist- J > Unusual scenic settings in the Sierra S 1 mountains and a raging blizzard . blend with a story of provejuppeal c to provide splendid attraction- 1 MASTER DINO pORTESE ) ' The wonderful boy violinist, who S - made his appearance last week at the S f Liberty Theatre is indeed a prodigy. C ' This young lad is but 12 years of age, r ' and without question made a very J : good impression as a violinist and al- ) ' so pianist, Veing very well received } by the audience. S This boy prodigy has had his ■» father as his teacher at 2 years of £ age, incredible but true, knqw all the «• musical notes, and at 3 years received J ' his first violin. J " The young Dino recently appeared J as soloist at the Plaza, City Hall, ^ Philadelphia, and at a recent pupils' . recital at the Temple University was J ^ considered one of the best amongst < . twenty-four pupils from the various J studios of Philadelphia. j ' AT THE LIBERTY < Next Friday and Saturday, July 29 ?
