The demonstration is a forerunner of the annual lifeguard ball, one of the outstanding events of the Cape May summer season. One of the oldest institutions of Cape May, the lifeguard ball was started about 1890, when four volunteers guarded bathers *1 Stockton and Shields beaches. The men depended on the good will of the public through voluntary subscriptions for their equipment. Donations boxes were placed in hotel lobbies, and the annual lifeguard ball was inaugurated as a fund raising activity. This sytem of life-saving con- 1 tinued until 1912, when the city appointed four men, Samuel Elwell, John Keenan, Sr., John Keenan, Jr., and iSteve Kelly, to serve on the two beaches. Although the volunteer lifeguard system has long since been replaced by paid guards, the annual ball has continued to raise money for the lifeguard and equipment funds.
