Everything 1» moving swiftly to this end. Get in - • to the front auto and do everything possible to help in the boosting. We have the finest resort along the Ne» Jersey coast. We all know this, but it's up to all of us to spread this truth broadcast. Do your part. o ■■ — There will be an election for City Commissioner here next Tuesday, bat there is not much surface indication of this important event. Perhaps the exdtement will irrow within the next few days. There are only two candidates for the office former Commissioner George O.. Adams and K. A. Corson, both well known business men here for many years. o THE Grand Jury of Cape May County is still in session and work ing upon the investigation into the | former activities of the Board of Freehoblers. The number of witnesses that are being called and tinmanner in which they are going about their duties would indicate that the Grand Jury's investigation will be a thorough one and result in much good to the county. A FIRST-CLASS amateur baseball team jn Ocean City, such as dreds of visitors. Mr. Mackenzie Phia. a well known summer cottager, promises to have here, should prove an attraction for many hunreds of visitors. Mr. Mackenzie had a team of gentlemanly* young collegians in Ocean City last season. They played good ball and made many friends. Practically the same boys will be here this season, with some additions, all of the same high calibre. o AN ENLARGED PAPER. THE SENTINEL has installed a typesetting machine of the latest pattern in its composing rooms, and the inconvenience" and annoyances experienced both by ourselves and our subscribers during the last few weeks are now of the past. Along the line of other improvements, it is now purposed to enlarge the SENTINEL this change effective the first week in June. We then expect to be in a position to give all of the important news of the city, with other features that will appeal to our readers. o Since the SENTINEL came into the hands of the Ocean City Printing and Publishing Company, the new owners have not lost sight of

their objective to make the SENTINEL a bigger and better paper, independent in principle end pulling herd for the best interests of Ocean City. They have encountered difficulty In shaping up their organisation, adding more adequate machinery and getting reliable and sufficient help, ell of which took time. They have, however, made material progress. The latest model typesetting machine obtainable has been installed and used In preparing this Usue. This enables one person to do in one day what once required a week. We feel safe in telling our readers that THE NEW SENTINEL" may be expected within the very near future. The price will remain the same. o GAS COMPANY HALTED When the dty officials and hiost of the civic organisations here agreed to the gas company's plea for a raise of nearly ten per cent, a thousand fee t in the company's price for gas, in order, as claimed, that the corporation could be In a position to make essential Improvements for the betterment of the service, the general thought was that this municipality had acted very generously indeed in thus assisting the company. One can, therefore, appreciate the feelings of member* of the Ocean City Real Estate Board when they learned, the latter part of last week, that the gas company had arbitrarily raised the deposit sum required from cottagers from $10 to $15. Naturally, efforts were marie to . —LSI tain just how this came about, and the matter was brought to the attention of the Bute Public Utility Promptly cam* an answer from the Commission to U* effect that the gNf uempany Increase tide charge, and that If the company is not satfefted with this

| ruling, aad desires to be hoard upo ! a proposition to change its rules *<» that the amount of deposit demanded ' may be increased, opportunity will bo given. Meantime, tire old rule hhouid remain in effect. One of the Commissioners aabl , •luring the progress of a recent cambefore the board, that the Commit* - sion will endeavor to see to H that corporations receive sufficient for j operating expenses, but the board is not interested In the returns to stockholders. There is hope for the publk. o AVIATORS HAVE SIXTH SENSE .Proof That tho Human tody Is More Highly Endowed Than Has Hlthorto Bsan Supposed. The London I.anret asks which of the fire senses could have played s predominant share In the iron "top transatlantic flight of Alcorii sod 1 Broun. -Sight, even when the moon was visible, was |»ractl<*ally nullified by the roustsnt cloud and storm* of sleet or hall; hearing must gradually have lost Its acuteuess In the course of 18 hour* of eii>o*urs to the treinendou* din of engines and propeller — It is recorded that both officers were deaf on dismounting; the vestibular sense scetn* to hare been no trusty guide !tm«iuuch as tho pilot admitted invol uutsry indulgence In stunting *°d seeius to have looped the loop without being aware that his vertical dl rection was changing. -On the other hand, the aviators' horizontal direction mu*t have been marveiously precise throughout, as. with no landmarks to guide them, their destination was reached without a hitch, when a swerve of a slngdo degree to one aide or the other of the direct line would have lost them their objective. -Presumably the Imperfect sense records supplemented each other in nervous system* loog trained to rapid and Impromptu adjustment." It aectr.s that the human body la en dnwed with a sense of stability and balance that depaods not u|*»n any one of the "Ave senses" and cannot be localized entirely, in the labyrinth of the ear. Some men possess this sense In greater degree than others. NOT IMPRESSED BY SPHINX Modern Reporter Refutes to So# Anything Wondorful In the Lady's £ Apposrancs. Admitting lhat "a mouth feet wide Is not a rosebud, nor an ear 4Vi feet high a naatisli." a modem reporter In Egypt l« Impressed by the fact that the Sphinx does not seem nearly so Impressive as he had expected. After all, the creature Is only IfW feet long and Its face only 14 feet wide! Perhapa the environment made a difference, for the Bphlnx, as she today reats In the aanda of the desert, has a Tery different stage setting from , that of a few years ago. The black tents of the Bedouin have gone, and their place taken by the white and khaki tenia of the British, pitched north and weet of the Pyramids. Trolley care run to within some hundred yards of the Sphinx, and automObllas travel the motoring road to the base of the Great Pyramid; from the ape* of the Pyramid of Cheops four long antennae ef a British wireless apparatus stretch down to the ground. For a short time during the troubles In Egypt the neighborhood of the 8phlnx saw a reversion to lawlessness, and Bedouins only the other day swooped In from the desert and attacked a par ty of tight-seeing British at the Pyramids. Dwarfed by the Pyramids, the latest visitor who has recorded his Impression found the Bphlnx "disappointing" and decided that so far from having a "cryptic expression." her stone countenance has ne sxpres , sloo whatever. — Christian Bclsoce • Monitor.

Red Hslr. A perturbed correspondent of the Indianapolis News raises an interesting question. Do women, be wishes to know, shtin red-beaded man and. if so. whyT His own hair Is of the hue sometimes thoughtlessly end Insccur ■tely described as carrot colored. Hence fbs qoery Is of vital personal importance. He has given the matrimonial question "serious consideration." but each tiros has been met with discouragement doe. ha believes, solely to the tinge of bis hair. The matter !s one calling for the tbooghtfnl attention of the philosopher and the sociologist. If women generally are frowning on the matrimonial offers of red-haired men. tho future of the race 1s threatened. Was It not a redhaired man who flred the fire I ehot In the American war against the Hun? Society cannot afford to lose the redhead temperament because of the per plexlng perreraltf of marriageable women. Tho red-head will be needed for the next war, or If tbsre Is no next war, when arm- and wherever trouble Is brewing. Red iandetone.

FIVE KNOWN KINDS OF ICE Application at Pressure Causes Changes of Movement of Which the Importance Will Be been. There are. It appears, no fewer than Ave distinct kinds of Ire. First, there la the coiuiuuu Ire. which is malar f re ten at ordinary attn«»»pUerle pre* sure. This is called Ire L It Is from 10 to 15 0 per cent lee* drnw thai' water. If this is placed under a pressure ut about 1,000 kilograms the Ice uh-n* to water. If ike pressure I* SutviumM to about 4 k I log i mu* the liquid water freetes again to another kind of Ice relied Ire 6, which Is about 0 pel relit denser than water. Increasing the pressure to about • 0.6OU kilograms we get Ice 4 the ' volumetric presnure and the density becoming from 5 to P p*-r t ent greater than water. If we freeze water at atmospheric pressure, but with a tem|HTiiture of 80 degrees C„ ordinary 'lev <l*e 11 l» change,! Into Ire 8. which Is on lh»avsrsgs 3 per cent dri»*w than witiai and 20 per cent denser than Ire 1. Further Increasing the pressure, ire 3 turn* into Ire 2. which I* abuut 22 per rent denser than Ire 1 On further Increasing the prc*-ure, Ice 2 chungo to ire 5 and then to Ire 4. Sometimes these changes take place so quickly that a dick Is heard The lower the temperature the more slowly 1* the change effected. This discovery has a practical application. When water freezes In a closed vessel iwineuse pressure Is developed. The bursting of boilers and uat«-r pipes la a familiar example of this. The water expands in freezing to Ice 2, but If the pressure ou the Ice durlug freezing exceeds shout 2.000 kilograms, corresponding to 30.000 pounds per square inch, ire 8 1s formed. As this la about I per rent denser thnn water and lias less volume. It shrtuks ralbor than extends. TURNED FROM GRAVE TO GAY Humorous Incidents That Havs Marked the Presentation of Soma ef Shakespeare's Tragedies. Shakespeare's tragedies have at times provided much mirth. A cannle Scot went to see "Romeo aud Juliet" in the Henry Irving classic days of ths Lyceum. It was all new to him When ltomeo enters the toinb and finds Juliet apparently dead Jock cried out over the front of the gallery "She's only fozlug, ma mnnnle. (lie ber a dig I' the ribs. That'll wauketi her!" Another North Britisher went to see "Otheilo." When lago had trcarher ously wounded Caaaio frem behind, the latter's exclamations were drowned by an anguished voire from the gallery: "He's atlcklt htm! Ms gosh: He's stlrklt him n' the leg! lie's the verrs de'll!" One evening "Hamlet" was put on the Mil In a country theater as the concluding feature of a lengthy repertoire. Owing to the lateness of the hour It was determined to reduce the play to three acta. Even this condensation found the graveyard scene oniy half through when ths town clock •truck twelvo. At that moment the manager strolled ou to the stage and remarked to the first clown: "Come ap out o* t* grave. Gsorgs. It's high time we were al in I ted wT ©or neetrepa on." — London Tll-Bita Novel Bookbindings Among the exhibits at the Ruhleben exhibition. Westminster, England, ware hundreds of books which were bound In the csrap school at Rubleban.

Other books are bound In portions of brown boots, trouserings, velveteen, and cor duroy.

ON TRACK OF VAST TREASURE Circumetancse Indicate Probability That Vast Hoards of the Mengols Has Been Dlecovcred. Whether Asia's moat famou* treaau re hoard, the concealed valuably* of the Mongols, has been found. 1* still a mystery to those who have dreamed of finding the precious relics of kings and emperors hidden somewhere In the ruins of the cities of central Asia. Iterant reports that some of the Jewel* and goldwork ef the Mongol* have reached India confirm the ttellef lhat the treasure-hoard has been ransacked at last. Five hundred year* ago the desert was green and temples and luxurious palace* adorned central ant! southern Aria, often callsd th* "tomb Of lost millions." The Mongols, the most formidable of the tribes at that time, rav aged eastern and central Europe In the thirteenth century, and carried their loot with them. With the pa*nage of the tribe the great secret to explorers has been the place of their hidden treasure. Some years ago two men In Yarkand sold some relics of ancient Asian workmanship, and it la believed they had come upon the tomb of the treasures. It was then that an adventurous Englishman. H. Spautdtng. called them to him and sst out to further explore the treasure region. It was reported that he had penetrated the region. hut that he had been *latn* on making hi* getaway. The apix-aranre of some of the ancient relic* In India recently Is believed to indicate that Spsuldlng was robbed and that tb« treasures are slowly being sold by his n«*a Hants. Cloth Frem Tree Bark. The famous "taps" cloth of Polynesia la mad# from the Inner bark of the paper mulberry. When of the finest quality It Is bleached to snowy whiteness and fine as mosltn. In tropical Africa the inner hark of a leguminous tree la utilized In the same way. Indeed, it la surprlring to learn how widely tree l»ark* are employed a* material for clothing the world over. And In the West Indlea grows the "lace-bark tree," which yield* a delicate tissue so like lace that many articles of feminine adornment are made from It 1 I
