THE ETERNAL WOMAN She's an angel in truth, a demon in fiction — a woman's the greatest ^ of all contradiction. She's a friend of the cock-roach and shell scream at a mouse but she'll tackle a man that's as big as a house. She'll take him for better, she'll take him for worse — she'll split his .head open ami then be his nurse. * And when he's well and can get out of bed, she'll pick up a tea-pot to throw at his head. She is faithful and deceitful, keen-sighted aui blind; she's crafty, she's simple, she's cruel, and she's kind. She will lift a .man up, she will cast a man down, she will take him apart and make him a clown. You fancy she^ this and you'll find that she's that. She will play like a kitten and fight like a cat. In the morning she will and at evening she wont.

RESURVEY AND HARBOR WORK IS PUNNED GOVERNMENT SENDS SHIPS AND ENGINEERS HERETO MAKE EXHAUSTIVE RE SEARCH IN HARBOR AND NEARBY WATERS. MAY RESULT IN PORT HERE. The coast survey steamer "Ranger", under command of G. C. Mattison, has been ordered to proceed , to Cape May Harbor and is hourly expected to arrive here to begin a j resurvey of this great land-locked refuge with a view of creating and j maintaining a channel 300 feet wide and 25 feet deep in the harbor. Ln addition Army engineers will also make a new survey, it has been announced. Authority for the survey was provided in a bill introduced in last Congress by Representative Isaac Bacharach, of this district. < The Ranger is now at Norfolk having recently docked there after a two season's work at San Juan, Porto Rico. Orders are that this vessel proceed to Cape May Harbor and begin topographic, hydrographic, tidal and magnetic observations therin and in adjacent waters. It is stated that the plan is to make the harbor and the entrance Cape May Inlet a port and harbor of refuge for larger craft bound up the Delaware. It is hoped that the harbor can be dev- j , eloped into a port of call, repair ' ; and supply, and also serve as a base for the inland waterway system along the Jersey coast. In time of war it would serve as « naval base as it did during the past World War, only on a greater scale, and so eliminate the necessity of the h>rtg run up the Delaware river. *
flhe harbor project at completed ten years age at an estimated cost of $1*311,000, and with an . annual appropriation for Ha mail) tenance of $10,000,. provided for a channel 25 feet deep at mean Low water and 400 feet wide thru the inlet, for the distance of u mile and protected by the two stone jetties 700 feet apart. Since its beginning Cape May Harbor has never been exploited as it might have been, and as it should have been. The harbor has been and still is, possibly the grea1. est asset Cape May has, and is an opportunity that has been largely j overlooked and undeveloped. Only ; partially overlooked, however for with the Eak Cape May tract I thrown into a receiver's hands j those who would have gladly in-, vested their money in this great ' development, both on the harbor's <*dge and farther back, were shut j out. It has long been patent that; there are many men of means who , desire to purchase lots on the bank of the harbor, so that they may erect sumnjer homes with a dock ! for their yachts. On the Cape May i side of the harbor is locked up mil- ; lions of dollars in real estate, temporarily. Could the lots adjoining the harbor be released for sale one of the greatest developments on the coast would spring up here, and nowhere on the coast can the site be duplicated for a resort of that character. Stagnation of this great traoT'to the East has held Cape May back as a resort — a stone wall against whicW all efforts seem of no avail. On this tract the Cape May Hotel stands, a monument to what might have been and a pointer to what may yet be, when this section is released by the courts, and becomes available to the in-, vestor and cottage builder. The Naval base and C. G. Section Base 9 lying between Yale avenue • and the harbor entrance, and containing barracks for a considerable garrison, a huge dirigible hangar, airplane and seaplane hangars, an ideal landing field for land plans and a water landing field that compares favorably with any other in the United States, is another great asset. Here can be established a Coast Guard training station for a thousand men. -Here is the nucleus for a trans-Atlantic or trans-Continental terminus for |
I for itinerant flyers, mmd MMcial planes. Part of tSu* may be accomplished with little effort when outside men of efficient calibre, capital and vision aee fit to take hold to promote Cape May and it's opportunities. At Schellengers landing, where the Clarence Schebenger and Company and the Cape May Fisherieis docks provide every facility for j fueling, and provisioning, with the additional service of a marine railway for smaller craft, the harbor has more nearly reached it's goal. Here comes annually the great combined fleet of Boston and Gloucester for the mackerel fishing season. Here also is the terminus of the Reading railroad that affordI shipping facilities of the first •7lass. Here, too, is the headquarters for the largest number of the largest size passenger fishing boats whidi carry thousands of anglers to the ocean fishing grounds annually, and .this industry is constantly expanding with passenger boatheld in reserve for use on a few days notice. Nearby on the south - j em bank the city has long desired a site to establish a municipal wharf which will afford much adlitional service as is needed by the kind of shipping it is hoped will eventually put in here. At Two Mile Beach on the northeastern section, just off the Inland Waterway the Pennsylvania Railroad has established wharves and shipping facilities with every posibility of' expansion to meet any needs that may develop. Between Schellengers Landing on the extreme western end of harbor and Two Mile Beach lies a vast stretch <»f meadow land that can be readily filled in from the bottom of the harbor, to the ever lasting benefit <»f the harbor and of the land. In this section alone, should be developed a great industrial or resort center that would compare with the other ports along the coast in a favorable way. Much has been done in years past to put Cape May <>n the map from the harbor standpoint, but the surface has merely l»een stroked — what can and may be done Is limited only by the vision and foresight of those in whose hands the matter must, perforce, ^ j
