POLLUTION KILLING FISH Di*a*terou* result* of sewage, ami oil pollution to fish lift in New Jersey'* salt ami fresh .water* was brought to the attention of Secretary Herliert Hoover, of the Department of Commerce, at a conftence halld- in Washington. -recently, to .ii*cu.«* this t growing menace to health an.l to' the public food supply, say* an exchange. Oil waste pumpeil from steamers off the coast ami factory pollutions poure«l into Inlan.i streams were shown to have ileadly effect upon -foo«l fish. The New Jersey Fish ami Game Commission was represented pt the conference by Congressman Amos H. Radeliffe, of Patterson, a member o ^ the commissi on hmf-Pro lector James , M. Stratton, of Long Branch. Alarming damage to tlie fishing industry front the careless operation of oil-burning steamers and tonkers was reported to the conference. In clean- . ing their tanks, many steamships dump the oil just outside the three- , mile limit, and floating, it is driven ashore by tide and wind. It frequently becomes .so offensive as to stop ; beach, bathing at North Jersey eoail resorts, while fishermen report that it is driving the big schools of fish seaward. out of reach of the shore fisheries ami anglers. Floating into! the shallow waters, the same oil kills millions^ of young fish and left! * as a deposit by the receding tide was i shown to be- destroying also clam and oyster life. A single instance of the far reaching effect of fresh-water- pollution reported by Commissioner Radeliffe, is the almost total annihilation of the shad industry in the Delaware river and bay. In other streams, such as the Maurice river, where pollution has been stopped the shad are coming back in large numbers. A MARK TWAIN GOOD ONE In his early days, Mark Twain, the author of "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Bin," was editor of a small town newspaper. One day he receiv- j ed a letter, from a superstitious subscriber. saying that he had found a ] spider in his newspaper and asking [ \ whether it meant good or bad lidc. ' \ Mark Twain wrote aa follows: "Finding a spider in your paper was neither good nor ^k#d luck for ' you. The spider was merely ldoking 1 over the paper to see which merchant was not advertising, so that he can ' go to that store, spin his web across %e door and live a life of undisturbed peace ever afterwards." Are spiders commencing to weave " their webs in your doorway ? A sure cure for cobwebs is customers — and advertising in the Sentinel will bring " them to you in increasing numbers. | This isn't theory or guff; it is asi° capable of precise proof as that a man named Harding is President of ' the Untied States. * 1 The Mark Twain story may Iw old, C but it 1s always new— it will Iw fresh * as long as this continues to Iw a wide- " awake world. f. Place an add in the Sentinel now i " and .keep the spiders away. FINING CONTRACTORS We haven't heard in several days just how well the garbage anil trash ! » this city are being collected, hot there have been many complaint* nt various times this summer regarding the attention given to these matter* by the contractors. It is reported that the garbage contractor has Iwcn fineiL or is about to he fined, for neglecting hi* work here. If this is so, and we received the information^ rem reliable sources. It Is surely a move in the proper direction. A few stiff fines on the contractors would doubtleess bring quick results, and results are wanted by the ! cottage owners whose garbage frequently ha* I wen left untouched for days by those whose.hunines* It is to collect the household refuse. NEW STATION NEEDED Most people here will agree with the petitioners to the Rending Rail

,1 road dompnny officials that the old , ' i box at 'Fourteenth street used as n I r | waiting station is totally out . of ilate I — (and inatlequutr for present-day needs i i . and it is to be hoped that the com- t ■ pany will soon comply with the retv | quest of the signer- of the petition. ... "j * That "section of the resort is le- ( building activity, and it is only- right ( -L. that the 'patrons of the' .Reading iiv- f h" ihg in That neighborhood in the sum--',, mn.lito.ns. Many of Philadelphia'- , men ^comprise considerable of the ert- , is.'tajge colony in that part of the town, _ they are commuters .hi, the Reading. and there is no doubt that the Reading, always .on the u'rrt to do the " best- possible .for Ocean City in the ^ summer seasons, will comply as j' promptly as one might reasonably ex- ' y pert with the request of these pcti- 11 ,e The county political pot i- hegine ning to simmer just a little hit. It is , ,y understood, preliminary to becoming ' r. Iioiling hot within 'a' few weeks. The j, fight of principal local intore.-t will " ,, he for the office of State Senator, for which W. Harry Bright,, of Wild wood, , and City Solicitor A. C. Boswell, of 1 I ] this resort, seek the Republican noni- ^ ^ ination. Mr. Boswell has served two „ terms in the Assembly and, accord- o I 'r'K to his friends, accomplished ir t_ j much of value to his constituents in ,f Cape May CoUnty. Therefore, they w j, j feel that he is justly entitled to high- » j er political honors from his neighbor* ti lS : and friends. Ocean City, as a muni- l' y. | d polity, should have a pride in lack- a n i ing one of its own residents for this > i office. It is said by "Andy's" friands pi down the county that he will Iw a s winner. it j 0 rr MANY of those who last spring or j T ,-jearty in the summer planned to spend Jthis season in Ocean City, but failed il ! to rent a cottage or apartment, have I j found on coming here .within the s | lust few weeks that there was noth,1 ing available for their purposes. "The old order changeth," and some , of the older visitors do not seem yet n to realize the new conditions. Time fl i, was, not so many years ago, when e one did not have to rent in Ocean " i- City early in the spring in order to , « secure the kind of summer hpme , wanted, and at the price the renter r was willing to pay. This has not * been the ease, however, for at least three or four years. Those times may return, but those who claim to 1 , know say it is doubtful. ! "HOPE springs eternal." The j presence of one of the members a of 4 the State highwray commission and * the State engineer in this resort on * Thursday, for the purpose of getting 4 : a line on the details of the auto 5 bridge ami roadway between this eitv 6 and Somers' Point, makes the avercitizen and automobile owner sit ® and endeavor to take a little no- - tice. It was stated that these gentle- 7 with the engineer* with them, 7 ' were here to make a preliminary in- ® -pection of the bridge, and that the gj j engineers from the State department 62 ! will be here a little later to make a | -= complete survey, prepatory to the State buying the bridge and thui removing the present toll charges. | "Oh! let it be soon," cry automobile Bn : ouners- cm n sti 1 THE men with motor boats among — the members of the Ocean City Yacht ! feel much more exuberant and h taking more interest in life since CL 1 racing has been resumed over the club course.
