COUNTY FAIR AT WILDWOOD IN SEPTEMBER COUNTY AGRICULTURISTS ACCEPT PROPOSAL OF LIPKIN TO USE OCEAN PIER AND LAND NEARBY FOR FAIR REVIVAL. Cape May County is again to have a county fair. The proposal to revive this event has been successful and the fair will be held on September 16, 16 and 17 in Wildwood and North Wildwood. , The Fair will lyave two distinctive features, one of which is that it will be a "County fair without a fence," while the other is that it will concentrate its efforts mainly on^ the agricultural features of a fair. The revival of the fair was made possible by an offer made by Wil'iam Lipkin of Wildwood to the Cape May County Board of Agriculture. At a special meeting of the Board held in the office of the County Agricultural Agent at Court House last Saturday, Mr Lipkin appeared and outlined his proposal, which, later, he embodied in the form of a confirmatory letter addressed to the Board. The offer made by Mr. Lipkin was accepted after consideration by the Board and at a meeting held in Wildwood on Tuesday of this week details were arranged.

Joseph Gamp is the President of the revived Cape May County Fair and Courtwrighrt Smith, former Mayor of Wildwood is the Secretary. Dr. Julius Way has been asked to act as Treasurer. Committees were appointed at

• the Wildwood meeting ^ in charge of the various events of the fair. A list of the committee chairman follows: Poultry Committee, A. S. Walker of Cold Spring. Dairy Committee, Frank Corson, Rio Grande. Farm Crops Committee, Melvin Abbott, Goshen. Truck Crops Committee, Harry Mackie, Eldora. Fruit Committee, William Powell, Swainton. Animal Races Committee, Robert Warwick, Gape May Court House. Auto Races, Norman T. Smith, Cape May Court House. Part of the text of the Lipkin communication explaining this offer to the County Board of Agriculture is as follows: "This confirms the conversation held with your honorable body this day at the office of the county demonstrator at Cape May Court House when and where it was i greed to revive the annual Cape May County Fair. The same was i greed to be held in Wildwood and North Wildwood on the last three lavs of the week following labor Day, this September. "I offer you free the use of the Ocean Pier Ball Rooom, during the fair, for the display of agricultural and other farm products raised or nroduced by the farmers. In addition I offer' Ihe use of my lots located in North Wildwood and "los« to ihe Ocean Pier for the variorift exhibits possible to get and necessary to have to make the fair attractive to the farmer, poultryman, grange, dairyman and stock breeder and their wives and families. "On the electric advertising sign on the Ocean Pier I will advertise the Cape May County Fair for the balance of the season to the thousands of persons who patronize this spacious boardwalk in Wildwood. MIn addition to the above T will underwrite the fair to insure it against loss to the extent of *1,000.00. "It was agreed at the meeting that your organization will take over the task of arranging the program, the farm exhibits and other details of that character and that 1 shall look after this eiuT of the arrangements. "During the fair the Fun Chase Pier will be open as will most of the other shops and concessions on the boardwalk of Wildwood." • a * THE COOLTDGE8 ARE ENJOYING "COOL CAPE MAY" Altho President and Mrs. Calvin CooWdge prefer to "Keep Cool" In the Black Hills other members of the Coolfdge family, (cousins to be exact), the Palmer Coolidges, of New York City a*rp "keeping cool" in "Cool Cape May — twenty miles at sea."

FINING SQUIRE IS EXAMINED MOTORIST APPEALS SEA ISLE CITY DECISION, CHARGING HIGH HANDED AND 1LLEG AL PROCEDURE. Flagrant violation *> of procedure in Small Cause Courts was charged last Wednesday, in a case heard before Judge H. H. Eld red ge, sitting in the new Court House. The hearing at Court House was the result of an appeal from a hearing held last May before Magistnate Steelman, in Sea Isle City. The Appellant was James Gibson, of Atlantic City, who was fined $76 and costs for reckless driving by the Sea Isle City Squire. Gibson claimed that at the hearing, no complaint was produced or read, that he was not informed of the nature of the charge against him, that Mayor M. M. Sofroney, of Sea Isle City, tried the case in place off Judge St eel man, and that he was not given an opportunity to be heard. He further claimed, and his evidence tended to show, that there had beep no proof of reckless driving offered jn the Court below, and that the whole procedure was in effect, an effort to adjust a civil matter in a criminal proceeding. T. Millet Hand, of Cape May, represented Gibson on the appeal. He charged that the proceedings were illegal1 in almost every particular roin start to finish. In taking that matter under adv i semen t. Judge Eldredge intimated that many magistrate's courts were bp* ng operated in an unlawful and high handed manner, and that iie intended to make a thorough investigation of the case. CAPE MAY POINT (E. B. D.)

The Community Center has bee*n the camping ground, of numerous automobile tourists from all parts of the country. This beautiful grove is a most attractive spot. Cottagers are being supplied with fresh fish by Master Wallace Rockwell who goes out on the bay in his boat each day, bringing in good catches of bass and weakfish.

BAYMEN FEAR MIINflSH RON FISH NOT EDIBLE, BUT DESTROY OYSTERS, SAY THE TUGKERTON PLANTERS. NO DYNAMITE SAY LOCAL ANGLERS. From Tuckerton comes the news that drum fish, are again invading Tuckerton Bay,mnd oyster planterand fishermen are disturbed. The&e monster fish are not edible, but do great damage, the bayipen arc quoted as saying. Already they have destroyed many hundreds of dollars' worth of oysters. Thes" fish likewise cause the smaller fish j to leave the bay, and with firii biting as they have since early Spring this is considered a grave danger. About 20 years ago, Tuckerton bay was visited with drum f^sh, resulting in a big loss of money to oyster planters, and at that time dynamite was used to destroy them. Nearly every' day .during the past week fishing parties have been landing one or more of them. Local sportsmen scoff at their neighbors, the baymen, and state that dynamite will not be used this season, l*ecause state officials will not permit. Locally drum are not considered a high class food fish, but the lowly big fish is eaten in season and is considered a food fish of no mean calibre, and in addition anglers find the sport, of catching it, worthwhile defending.

o CONGRATULATIONS Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Wilson, o Cold Spring are receiving congrat ulations upon the birth of a son born early Thursday hiorning. 1 o Chauffeur (to slightly deaf farm er): "Can you tell me where I can get some gas." Farmer: "Hey " Chauffeur: "No, gas, This ain't a horse; it's an automobile."

HAWAIIAN BOAT BUILT HERE IS CJUOSITY PHILADELPHIA!^ FORMER RESIDENT OF THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS BUILDS OUTRJC ! GER CANOE AND FRIENDh HAVE FUN IN SURF. G. S. Rorbach, of Wtadelphia, who with Mrs. Rorbach ia staying at 629 Columbia avenue this aeasoti, during 1918 nnd '19 lived in the Hawaiian Inlands. While there he was interested in watching the natives with their out-rigger canoes shooting the breakers and maneuvering in the roughest seas with absolute safety The Hawaiian canoes are built of logs dug out in the Indian fashion, very narrow and some times as much as thirty feet in length. The outrigger is another smaller log or ; section *>f bamboo fastened to the ] dugout by two poles. It is almost ; impossible to capsize one of these ! curious craft. Mr. Rorbach decided that some : day he would have one of the j boats when he could take time- from his work as an artist to build one. This season during the past three weeks he began building his craft in the yard on Columhia Avenue and this week he launched it with the help of friends who are staying at the same address. Needless to j say the funny looking contrivance attracted a lot of attention ana j comment, and hundreds of batherand beach front strollers were surprised to see the boat ride the i roughest breakers with ease. It U j twenty feet long and but 26 iache> i wide, is painted a light green and j is named "Maile" which is Hawaii- j an for Mary Mr Barbae h, after j noting the behavior of his boat, de- i c-ded to raise the rides five more « inches to keep it from taking in j water when riding the surf, ami j when that is done he believes hf S has the safest craft in local waters, j Mr. Rorbach is an artist ami ha* i sold many of his creations. He ha- | exhibited in the Academy of Fine : Arts frequently. Mrs. Rorbach h : an interested helper in his work s and has won a number of friend* J here this sumfer with her charming j personality. "I have wanted to have one of jj the boats," said the builder, "since jj I was fourteen years old, and now £ I'm enjoying R very much."
