PHILOxSOPHY AUTOCASIbW f| — F TO ALLY oar charming folk have bowed to the inevitable and given the gate to the short skirt. Soon sight of a tapered ankle will be spoken of as something that existed in "the good old days." existed in toe good oia nays. s

Women of course will be chided t for their weakness. They have pro- a tested that the short skirt is healthy s and comfortable, and tried to keep J it in the mode, but what are the ^ poor things to do when the whole- • sale dret. makers just won't mate j short skirts. The girts must buy t what they are offered or nothing. ,, And Where's the harm? The change f means more doth used, more mill j hands at work, more business in f . the stores. 'The much tler-Irtert j changing mood of our women folk ( r has kept the wheel* 1-istry ( , snoring many a y«" 1 i RESTAURANTS AND HOTELS 1 I Has the hotel and restaurant man " ever thought, we opine, what an im- , t portant place he occupies ih the com- t ) munity? It is he upon whom a par- , ticular public depends for the com- , ' pletion of an otherwise perfect day- | ) However satisfactory a day may have | , been, it may be utterly marred by , ' poor dinner — the last meal. , ! A repast should be as near perfect , , throughout as possible. And it must , ' not be forgotten that it is the last , t taste that lingers. However good j j may be the food and however well j ^ cooked and served, yet that same cui- » sine and service will be placed forever J i in the discard if the final articles be , ^ beneath the standard expected. . * Unusual care should therefore be ' ) exercised' in the choice of the last arti- j L cles for consumption. They may be , C called upon to redeem some unsatis- , > factory dish that has gone before. » Desserts "usually give uniform satis- . [ faction, so it behoves the hotel ami ( » restaurant man to observe caution in : * buying both his cheese and coffee. ( [ In this regard it must be remember- , i ed that advertised brands are usually , the best The firm that advertises its ( products shows that it has faith in it; . that good mone- is spent to make it j known as a brand and that the manu- , facturer stands hack of it with his own | good nameWe repeat, the restaurant man ; should look well to his contribution i "to the end of a perfect day." — New < Jersey Hotel Pilot. ^ x , RESULT OF CORN CONTEST The following is a list of the varieties or strains of corn given in terms of bushels of shelled corn per acre.

HAVE ORGANIZED LEGION MILIARY MRS- JESSE LUDLAM OF COURT HOUSE, PRESIDENT OF COUNTY AMERICAN LEGION AUXILIARY. Members of the Ocean City, Wildwood and Cape May Court House American Legion Auxiliaries met at Ludlam's Office, at Cape May Court House on Thursday evening, October 26 and formed a County organization. Mrs. Morris of Ocean Citv took the chair as temporary chairwoman until the permanent chair was electedMr- Trout of Ocean City gave a talk endeavoring to explain how the Legion conducts its county work. After deciding time of meetings and place, the secretary was instructed to write to the State Executive for in- 1 | formation relative to county work. The officers elected for the ensuing year are: County Chairman, Mrs. Jesse Ludlam, C. M- C. H.; County vice-chairman. Miss Foulde, of Ocean City; County sjeretarv. Miss Lang, of Cape May Court House: County treasI urer. Miss Beatrice Maxwell, Wildwood; Legislative chairman. Mrs. Trout, Ocean Citv; Hospitilization, Mrs. Florence Smith, _Wildwood. RUNYON'S EXPERIENCE Twice since the race track days of . i the early nineties, has the Legislature been Democratic. The next Legislature will be no exception to the rule of Republican predominance, according I to the expectation even among Demo- , cratic "insiders " The Senate is all ready certain to retains its Republi- > can hue. Progress then, it is selfl evident, can only be obtained at TrenP ton by having an Executive Departj in en t in political tune with the legisk lative branch. Republican legislatures have shown a readiness to come to the rescue of Democratic governors when the latter were right and not actuated by political motives, but political history nevertheless proves that a difference in political affiliations between the Executive and the legislature leads inevitably to an impaSS?; whereby the interests and the welfare of the State suffers. Chaos frequently envelopes the affaris of " the State while such a condition con- , tinues. The Republican party is fortunate in having as its candidate for Governor, a man who has long legisy. lative experience, who has been a par!e ticipant in the recent sessions, who ■t knows what he wants0 for the State e and how to get itMr. Runyon was Republican floor » leader in his very first year in the As- . sembly, way back in 1915. Through senioiy, way uac* in ui o. mruugii h

the years of 1916 and 1917 he serfred mt also as a member of the House, and since then, has been a Senator. He was president of that body in 1918, and. served tbe.greater ^>art of Abe year as Acting Governor. Familiarity with the peculiarities and the prejeudices of most of those legislawith whom the next Governor will have to contend, as well as a personal friendship with them, equips Mr. Runyon as few men have been to step into the Governor's office without valuable time in becoming acquainted with its intricacies. Tho difficulties that beset a Governor in to maintain working relations with the Legislature do not threaten emharass Mr. Runyon. HOW CAN IT BE DONE? The Constitution prohibits intoxicating beverages, beers and wines, in the accepted meaning of those words, unquestionably are intoxicating. How, then, are they to be legally restored general use through a simple modification of the Volstead act? The question has been raised repeatedly in the last month or two and a clearcut. answer would be both interesting and ; enlightening. It is not mere partisan- [ shi p or an indication of prohibition 1 sympathies to seek more elucidation from the Democratic campaign managers, than they have yet given- Governor Edwards has not been clamor1 ing for a repeal of the eighteenth amendment. Judge Silzer has stopped shorter of the Governor in his appeals to the "wet" vote. As to what the 1 Governor of New Jersey can accomplish in the direction of bringing back • beer and wines no one has attempted to demonstrate, so Judge Silzer's oc ' casional discussion of the subject may 1 dismissed as largely academic. Governor Edwards, however, seeking election to the United States Senate as an ' avowed anti- prohibition candidate 1 clearly has a duty to perform if he is ; sincere with those voters who want ; beer and wines- The Governor must _ convince them that their goal is possible of attainment despite the inhibition contained in the eighteenth amendment. He must meet the issue i as Senator Frelinghuysen presents it, r or stand convicted of insincerity and a willingness to accept election to an : office of great influence by misrepresentation- If the Governor does not answer now, and if perchance he should be successful in November, he • may be certain that he will be held to ; a strict accountability in the future by . those trusting souls who are willing i to take a chance now. No less than Governor Edwards, must Judge Silzer, too, make his position clear. . Does the Judge consider he is treating the electorate with candor when he makes promises a great ' section of the electorate deems »m- - possible of fulfillment? Does he per- • sist in suggesting to the gullible that the Governor of New Jersey can bylawful means permit the manufacture ' and sale of beers and wines? If so, b it is time for him to submit a set ol specifications. _ _ fl r
