Will Of Tomlin Aids Charities COURT HOUSE—In the wfll of Bard*tt« Tomlin, wBob* (26,000 'tontribntbm last year launched an intensive drive for funds for a county hospital, a large number of bequests were made to charitable institutions, churches, business associates and relatives. The will was probated at Cape May Court House last week. n Ocea opera! plant at Millville for many years, left (600 each to all the churches of Millville, and like amount^ to churches at Petersburg, Seaville and Beesley’s Point, as well as to a number of organizations and several former clerks.

The lucrative sand business was left to those regularly employed in it for more than two years. Cape Theatre Review By the Observer The Cape Theatre made a hit Tuesday evening when it presented the new farce-comedy “It’s High Time” by David Carey. The play is uproariously funny and proceeds at a hectic pace from one hysterical situation to another. Everyone who grew up with a large family will have memories evoked by the characters and the plot of "It's High Time”. There is a spontaneity and freshness about the play and the production that will appeal everyone. The cast was as follows: Margaret Williams, Hene Damur; ( Bessie Adams, Frederica Going; Elizabeth Ann, Florence McGee; Uncle Ben, James Bedell; Alan Sprague, Philip Earle; Joe Bates, Jack Lynda; Ted Adams, MacGregor Gibb; Jeremiah Davis, John Byers; Jimmie Adams, PhilS Field; Virginia Saunders, Maryn Lush. The cast as a whole caught the

different this week in a very different role and was sweet and attractive. Mr. Earle plays with brilliant success as Alan Sprague, the romantic lead. John Byers did his best work to date in this production. And from two young members of the company—Miss Lush and Mr. Field—came work that shows great promise. Miss McGee was also extremely good in the part of the daughter and maintained her standing with the Cape Theatre audience. Mr. Lynds was very amusing and Miss Going waa satisfactory in a most difficult part. | But the real hit of the evening Tuesday was Mr. Bedell, who brought down the house with his superlative reading of his many “gag” lines. The part is perhaps actor-proof, but it is ' consensus in this corner that actor anywhere could have done better than Mr. Bedell. The play was staged by Lynds, and the sets were by Mr. Gibb. For the coming week Director T. C. Uphara has chosen another amusing and very real new comedy entitled “Three Days to Wait”

Kem-Tone Featured As New Type Paint A brand new kind of paint, which can be used directly ovei old wallpaper to produce a beautiful flat painted surface, has been introduced in Cape May by Swain’s Hardware Store. Known as Kem-Tone, this, new interior finish has been developed in the laboratories of the Sherwin-Wil-

liams Company.

According to Charles A. Swain, the new paint is thinned with water, needs no other mixing ingredient and covers practically every known interior surface with a single coat. It is entirely free from any objectionable paint odor during and after painting and dries to a beautiful flat, matte finish. Kem-Tone is said to be easy to apply and dries in as

Public To Rubber An appeal to every man, woman and child in New Jersey-to accept and fulfill a quota of at least five pounds of scrap rubber to be turned into a gasoline service station before the end of the 10-day time extension in the Petroleum Industry Scrap Rubber Drive was made today by W. J. Gaffney, secretary of the New Jersey Petroleum Industries Committee. President Roosevelt last week extended for 10 days the drive to round up scrap rubber, and all indications were that New

You can take home a gallon of Kem-Tone, add a half-gallon of water to it, and apply it right over wallpaper without removing the paper.
