Those- *ho were advocating t the small board insisted that it was time for a change in the whole sys- s tern, and urged the adoption of the t law, trusting to the future to produce . . the kind of candidates that everybody c agretd ought to be elected. That they E were sound in their judgment is shown p b- the announcement in another col- tJ umn that -Hon. Robert J. Kay, one of South Jersey's strongest financiers, a now a member of the legislature and n honored citizen of Wild wood; Captain

Charles P. Vanaman, acknowledged to be one of the keenest and shrewdest business men in the county, and ia honest as they make them, and Hon. Joseph Champion, mayor of Ocean City and a builder of more than ordinary judgment and skill, have consented to the use of their names as candidates for the small board. The announcement of their decision will doubtless cause more rejoicing amon the thoughtful voters, men and women alike, than any political news that has appeared in many a long day. With these three men in office the success of the new nlan of county government would be assured beyond cavil. In consenting to run all of these men are making a personal sacrifice and they ought to be nominated and elected without -leaving their homes for a day. THREE GOOD MEN AND TRUE Extract from Cape May County Times, September 8, 1922: Soon the people of Cape May County will be called upon, at the Primary Election on September 26th, to decide uuon the three men who are to conduct the affairs of Cape May County for the next one, two or three year.There are nine candidates, on the Republican ticket, and from these nine three must be selected. Three will < be nominated in the Democratic oarty. • and at the November election the six ' will fight it out- 1 Never have the Republicans of 1 Cape May County faced a greater re- 1 aponsibility than when they go to the 1 polls this month.. The three men * then selected will have the "absolute t control of the County affairs, and will be called upon to carry on what, in private business, would amount to a forty -one million dollar cortiorat'r S lending annually'" upwards of a , f-million dollars. " The voters are the stockholders in this Countv corporation, and the men n thev select will administer the business economically, fairly and fearless- p Jy, and save the taxoavers money; or administer it extravagantly, unfai-1 s and to serve special interests— and the „ -axpayers will PAY.

;| CAPE MAY POINT A very interesting meeting was i. 'held Tuesday evening September 5th |at the home of Mrs. Richard Seltzer. The object of the meeting was to discuss plans for the work of the "winter bunch" at the Point. This work being entirely non-sectarion so that everyone attending this meeting felt - that he or she had a oart in it. The Rev. Dr. Zachman very earnestly emphasized the point that the chur#i should have a resident winter minister who would always be available and who would be interested in ; every family in Point and its vicinity. I It was therefore suggested that the ! Rev. Frank Sheppard who for seven- i teen years had labored so faithfully amongst the Point folk be called to 1 take charge- This suggestion was most unanimously received and Dr. i and Mr. Schuebel called cm Sheppard who most willingly 1 agreed to take up the work again. We feel that Mr. Sheppard needs no in- r traduction and that the Point folks will endeavor to assist and build up < the work here, especially amongst v the young people- Let us all look forward not backward and lend a J hand may God's blessing rest upon ( the % ork. 1; Miss Supplee has as her guest her sister, Mrs. Dunn, who will remain « October.

,d TO THE PEOPLE OF CAPE 2. MAY COUNTY-: s- I have consented to be a candidate for the Republican nomination for the House of Assembly solely and entire . ly for the purpose of serving m\ county to the best of my ability if p' nominated and elected- The office is • one which is not attractive to "met whose time is required by their business, because the salary paid is more .. than absorbed in necessary expenses as is well-known-I am offering my services because I have the leisure time to attend to the duties involved without detriment to personal responsibilities. I have no desire whatever to enter . for political preferment as such and ask our voters, both men and women, to regard my candidacy as merely an , I offer of mv time and services for my [county. If my opponent is preferred, shall give him my support in the election most cheerfully. | I do not desire the nomination unless it comes clean as the deliberate | choice of the Republican voters of this ' | county.
