Commenting on railroad and bus service to seashore resorts, Director Henderson said that while special excursions and aight-secing trips are ruled out; the lines arc limited on regular service only to what they nor-

Kally gave a year ago.

He told the seashore officials that with the tremendous extra demand for troop transportation and war industrial needs on the railroads, the seashore should be

’Phone Directory Is Issued Here A -new issue of the AtlanticCape May Counties telephone directory is now being distributed hy the New Jersey Bell Telephone Company. It is set in a new type face, and in four columns instead •f three to the page, to effect an Important saving in paper of the aewsprint variety used in direc-

tories.

The new type, known as “Bell Gothic", was designed by Bell System engineers working with type designers and manufacturers and allows more white space within and around the letters and ■umbers, creating an effect that is more pleasing to the eye. The four-column treatment, now in nse in northen New Jersey directories as well as in most of the principal directories throughout the United States and Cana4a, will effect a saving of approximately 20 tons of newsprint paper stock in a single issue of the southern New Jersey directories, the company estimates, and its adoption here at this time represents one of many ways by which the company is seeking to I Vnserve materials essential to I be war effort. Approximately 41,450 copies of flie new book are being distributed, containing about 3,800 new listings. A total of some 19,000 changes have been made, the company aaid.

Miss Murray Author Of McCall Article ATLANTIC CITY—Miss Elizabeth Murray, home service director of the Atlantic City Electric Company, has collaborated with Miss Kathleen Robertson, home appliance editor of MdCall's Magazine on a feature article “Seven Dinners for Seven Days" whiqh will appear in McCall' July issue. As home service director of the Atlantic City Electric Company, Miss Murray has established hersek. as an outstanding authority in her field. In the new article, she gives special attention to the problems of cooking in war-time. “You can save time and money by cooking a whole meal at one-time,” she advises. She then outlines seven meals that will help housewives to do this through the week. In each of them, all main dishes can be cooked at the same time. By selecting foods carefully that those which require the same treatment and using fully the facilities of the modern kitchen range, the process is very simple, she added. The resulta save the housewife time and conserve valuable electricity. Miss Murray previously received the McCall’s Magazine first prize in the Laura McCall Awards for the advancement of electrical living in the home. Miss Murray is well known here :here she conducted a cooking school in 1940 sponsored jointly by The Star and Wave and the Atlantic City Electric Co.

MARK 50TH ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs. Finley C. Morrow, of 240 Windsor avenue, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary Tuesday evening at their home. The celebration was attended by Miss Rebecca C. Morrow, Mrs. Martha B. Wagner, Miss Annie Whitlamb and Mr. and Mrs. J. William Morrow and their son. Mr. and Mrs. Morrow have resided in Cape May since 1938.

Cape Theatre Review y the Observer The Cape Theatre presented on Tuesday evening the first performance on any stage of a new and delightful comedy entitled “The Major Had a Daughter”, written by Lina Kane The cast was as follows: Fran, Frederica Going; Delia, Connie DQks; Major, MacGregor Gibb; Michael, John Byers; Betey, Florence McGee; Owen, Philip Earle; Cynthia, Betty Claire Schmf " Jennifer, Marie Louise Jones. The play is written in splendid dialogue that crackles brightly from line to line. There is the grumpy but not angry father played well by Mr. Gibb. There is the always fluttery mother done excellently by Miss Going. There are the middle-aged couple and the young couple and their intertwined lives. The outstanding acting was by Miss McGee, closely followed by Mr. Earle. But both Mra. Jones and Mr. Byers held up their important parts very satisfactorily. Miss McGee’s stature as an actress was never better revealed than in this long role of 70 “sides". She was alert, charming, forceful, sweet, intriguing—a real comedienne. Mr. Earle was quiet, restrained, even, thoroughly enjoyable. And on top of his acting he had the task of bringing a new script into shape, a difficult job indeed in one week. There is exciting news, according to T. C. Upham, the general director, for the week to come. In the first place, Jack Lynds has recovered from his recent illness and is returning in time to play in "The First Mrs. Fraser”, which is next week's show. He will play an important part. Also in the cast next week is W. James Bedell. But of great interest to Cape May and Philadelphia people is che coming of two strong theatre personalities. Miss Hene Demur js one, an actress still well remembered for her starring role in “Personal Appearance", which was Mr. Upham’s first production at the Cape Theatre in 1939. Since then she has appeared in good parts in many professional shows, plus radio. Philadelphia people saw her not long ago with Eddie Dowling in “Time of Your Life". The other is Miss Rosalind Ivan, who will play the lead in "The First Mrs. Fraser”. Miss Ivan was a star for years in England and has been in numerous plays in New York, the latest being "The Corn Is Green”, with Ethel Barrymore. She also followed Mary Boland in “The Rivals” and in Boston was starred beside Walter Hampden and by Clark. The junior members of the Cape Theatre company gave their first Sunday and Monday evening entertainment the past weekend. The bill consisted of three oneact plays, “The Purple Doorknob", "Sparkin’ ” and "The Gaol Gate”, the authors being Walter Pritchard Eaton, E. P.. Conkle, and Lady Gregory. Those taking part were Connie Dilka, Betty Claire Schmidt, Jinny La Salle, Winkie Van Lennep, and Philip Field. Perhaps the most successful of the three little plays was "The Gaol Gate”, a strong poetic tragedy, in which Miss La Salle’s fine work helped strongly to establish an atmosphere that maintained throughout.

Don't waste anything, for that means wasted money. Wasted money is wasted lives in .wartime. Every dollar you can save should go toward War Bonds to help • state meet its quota.

It was not until 1899 that the Office of Naval Intelligence was established by Act of Congress.
