LADIES' NIGHT AT CO.JEETING COUNTY CHAMBER OP COM- j MERGE HOLDS LADIES' NIGHT , AT COURT HOUSE — LITTLE , BUSINESS BUT LONG ENTER- . TAINMBNT. The regular monthly meeting of the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce was held at Gape May Ceurt , House last Thursday evening mth a packed house attending. It was Lad- , ies' Night and many women helped to make up the audience i« the Higu • School Auditorium. President Luther C- Ogdea called the meeting to order at 8:30 after , waiting in vain for the appearance of the Ocean City delegation. Rev. Haynes of Court House, made the opening prayer which was followed by the reading of the minutes of the last meeting by Secretary Haff«rt The outstanding feature of the minutes was the letter fram W. Courtright Smith, aa Managing Secretary oF the Wildwood Hoard of Trado in answer to a number of questions and a request for suggestions which were contained in the Secretary's notice of that meeting. Mayor Smith's letter was the only answer to that appeal at the October meeting and it waa held over for discussion at the November meeting. Upon roll call Wildwood, Sea Isle, Cape May, Stone Harbor and the Grange delegations answered but the voices of Strathmere and of Ocean City were not heardCn call for committee reports, the Legislation and Transportation committees made no report. The Publicity committee made no report but President Ogden stated that the chairman, Gilbert C. Hughes, had tn'.d him that there were some advertising sub-

scriptions still unpaid from last Year- < Secretary Haffert was next called i upon to again read the letter of Mayor Smith of Wildwood so that other < ' ideas and discuaions could be taken up. i I Commenting upon the suggestions 1 contained in the letter, Mr. Ogden de- I clarod: "I wish there were more of i ; our members who would do as much i , consecutive thinking along lines of : • county needs " He then took the let- ' ter and called attention to the suggestions one by one and asked for discussion from the floorSecretary Haffert's Questions as ] propounded , in his notice to every - member were: 1 What as Cape May County's rreat- ' est need today? ' How should the county advertising 1 be handled next season? What legislation, if any, could be ' advocated • by the Chamber foT the [ county's good. Are you satisfied with the condition of the county roads? ! How could they be improved? ' Continuing the Secretarv stated: r "You sure!- have, some ideas on • these matters, which are merely sug- - gestive of many which the Chamber ' exists to help solve. Bring along your r solution at this meetrin- and let's all J have the benefit of it" 1 Mayor Krause, of Stone Harbor, : stated that it was Ms understanding ' that the Jersey-Delaware fern- was included in the State Highway plans ' if the forty million bond issue went r thru and made the motion that the , ' Chamber of Commerce again endorse | the project, and that the officers of • the Chamber oonfer with the State 5 Commission. The motion was passed - all delegations votin~ excepting the 1 Grange. The silence of the Grange was not ; unexpected as it ha* been understood for some time that the grangers " would oppose the ferry because of the 1 bringing of farm products into the " county from Delaware and Maryland 1 by the ferry with the urobable result " that prices would be forced down on " produce here. This may or may not have been the reason for the silence but the fact remains the Grange did not rote. "Chummy" Smith, the next speaker, took up the matter of County control of the Fair Grounds and objected, declaring that the County Board of Agriculture outs all profits back into the grounds and the fahr and that the farmers would object to county control. Lanning Myers, principal of the Wildwood High Sdhool. called attention to the fact that the fair ground is the only place now available for the yearly school meet of the Intereeholastic League and that the grounds need a lot of things before they would be altogether suitable and .should be arranged to better accommodate the school needsMr- Stackhouse, County Farm Demonstrator, replied that the fair ground had been let to the schools practically free of charee and suggested that the schools 'and the county chamber of

, commerce might give financial ambit- I Joseph Camp, President of the I ■ County Board of Agriculture, ' next . spoke on the same subject, stating ; the Board had taken over the ground after the Trotters and Breed ' era Association had failed to make it . i its way. Upon suggestion of J President Ogden a vote of thanks was extended to the Board for the good . work. Aside from some enlightenment as to how the fairs are conducted and the ( verbal boquets nothing was aecomr plished on the fair ground question ' and the matter rests as before. 1 The Next Meeting President Ogden announced that Hie . next meeting of the Chamber will be ' held at Cape May, December 21 and ) . that the topic for the evening will be 1 . "Education. "The speakers will be Mrs. Crowell, member of the Moorestown ' . Board of Education, and Mrs. Amies- \ on. Helping Teacher of Camden Coun- ; ty. • ' Assemblyman Ralph Stevens was 1 i now called unoii to address the gath- ' . ering and stated that he was always ! r interested ip the activities of the ' r County Chamber and that he hoped 1 whatever the people of Cape May County wished hhn to do that they ! ■ would so inform him. He called at- . r tention to the "Thirteen Points" of the i Wildwood Board of Trade and deelarn ed that a foundation of that kind was t necessary for all progress as a work- ' g ing planB| Surrogate Irving Fitch was next ' f given opportunity to address the meet e ing and ne expressed sur-rise that he d should be expected to say anything ,as e it was his belief that the Chamber ' deals only with live issues while his t office deals in dead ones. He stated' a that he would have something to say 8 on the matters brought up by Mayor e Smith's letter at the next meeting. a The business meeting was now ada journed to give way to the entertain - t ment program- The entertainment d was given by Court House people and t was interesting thniout, continuing e until after 11 o'clock. At the close of a the program the meeting was asked to repair to the basement of the school . where a luncheon was served. ,' The entertainment program was as foil owes: _ Orchestra, Selection.

FALL MEETING WELL MENDED HELD IN MIDDLE TOWNSHIP H. S. BUILDING LAST SATURDAY CORN AND POTATO SHOW WAS A FEATURE. Through the kindness of the Middle Township Board of Education in granting the use of the High School Building, the Cape May County Board of Agriculture was able to hold a banner Fall meeting, also the introduction of a Corruand Potato Show, which aroused Vnuch enthusiasm among the contestantsBoth morning and afternoon sessions were well attended- The morning session was given over to reports and routine business of the Board of Agriculture. President Camp called upon .the Chairmen of the various committees and received in each case an excellent response in the following [ order: Poultrv Committee. A. B. j Faure, Belleplain; Fair Poultry Show . Committee, John N. Reeve, Burleigh; , Fruit Committee, Dr. Julius Way, Court House; Tomato Committee, El- , 1 lis Thompson, Dias Creek; Horse Race Committee, i. A. Powell, Court House; !

Field Crop Committee. W. S. Thorn p- . son, Goshen. ' ... . The new by-laws of the Count> Board of Agriculture as prepared by a ■ previously appointed committee, were placed before the Board and after a considerable discussion were adopted ' after one correction was made. Upon adoption of these by-laws, the election of trustees (executive committee) was not legal until the first day of January, so the meeting for the election was adjourned until that day. In order to be ready when that time shall come, it was decided to have a Nominating Committee to recommend fifteen names for trustees, to be presented for nomination January L The Nominating Committee appointed Dr. Julius Way, Judson B. Corson, JWinfield Coombs, Norman Taylor and O. E. Lehmann. The afternoon program was one of the best ever given by Agricultural Society. The speakers, namely Howard Hancock- of Bridgeton; Elmer Wene, of Vdneland, and A. C. McLean, of Trenton, were clear and forceful in dealing with their agricultural subjects and the Double Mixed Quartette of Cape May Court House, trained carefully by Clement Foster, sang songs that were a real treat to all who love good music. The singers were Mrs- J. A. Stackhouse, Mrs. Beatrice Shields, Mrs. Wm- G. Hand. Mrs. Chas. W. Haines, Mr Clement Foster, Wm. G. Hand, Harry Mcpherson and W. H. Powell. •Mention should be made of the fine , cooperation given by the Vocational School Teachers. R- E. Reeves and S. E. Stone, in heloing put across the fine exhibits of corn, sweet potatoes and white potatoes. But for them the

- Show would have been cut in half. The first prize winners in the show r will be sent to Trenton by the Board l of Agriculture during Agricultural ? Week in Trenton, Jan. 16-19, where i they will have a wonderful oppori tunity of seeing exceptionally fine i produce and can meet many of the i progressive farmers from all parts of s Jersey. , The second arid third prize winn ners barely npsed out since they too _ showed great ability in selecting fine I specimens. Honors only, are offered . since funds are not sufficiently large . to do more. _ The winner in White Corn .class e was W. S. Thompson, Goshen; Yellow Corn Class Norman Taylor, Cold r. Spring; White Cap Class, Chas. Torad Mu» Cape May Court House; Sweet Potato Class, W- H. Powell, Swainf ton; White Skin Potato Clfcss, Frank j Swain, Swainton and Red Skin Pota- .. to Class, Joseph M. Somers, Ocean r View. , There were 69 entries in the Show, a very creditable showing. It looks j as though the interest taken this year .. will warrant running a better show j. next year, when all classes of potatoes will be arranged by varieties- The fact II that all white skinned varieties were ^ lumped together this year worked a hardship on Cobler, Spauldinf Rose l' and Peach Blow varieties. it! .
