By A. Elten Newrhirh. ,, Never In the history of Ocean Cityhas this (treat, family seaside resort j l«-«-n as prosperous _B4h Is al this v present llnie. j IP has steadily but : nrely grown, "-bo Ihat now It deserves .< the highest tribute that should be J at corded n, City -founded and built on ' - uch principles, which has made Its tultffe sncrrhs a reality. Situated on- J ly a short distance from Atlantic City, t villi electric train service requiring 3 l.-ss than forty-five mhwites to arrive ' 'there, adds itreitly to Its popularity. , The ••Chamber of Commerce" and . iln- "Boosters' Club" Imic adveillsed 1 .Menslvcly. so that now the iieople , outside of the City have awakened r I rum their lethargy, to the advantages t • n'rlrnl front a-<lslt to the resort, not 1 only trom a sot l.il or a religious stand- - point, but from the possibilities that 1 abound from a sinaifcial point of view. , tor there Is no better place to Invest i jour capital. They realiie that Ocean • i'ity Is all that It claims to be. and. more. Consequently thru- are Ihous- i parts ol the United States every year. This Is largely due lo the fact that lire route trom Snnu-rs I'olnt across , the drawbridge, invites many a tourist i alto" otherwise might not catch a , glimpse of Hie place, although there i .ids leading into Ocean City. on entering Ocean City now the dmwbridge Is "City Hall", a "modern structure ot artistic design and work manship. which also accommodates one of the b"»- equipped Fire Compa nies in the State, and an efficient Police Department, under whose pro-1 lection the people of Hie City are sell guarded day and night. Church es of all the -leading denominations arc represented. The publlr schools and sumtn»r 'schools are under the -management of Protestors anil teachers fully competent lo ar.-ume the at .(nous tasks assigned to litem. There is everything in the place ' that one could desire. The Campers and Clubs who t-onie annually lo Im tier than the finest bench along the, < nasi, tor the City boasls ol lis sate! bathing grounds and Its spacious and shops. It also excels in boating md Ashing, ot which (here is not a better spot in South Jersey. It has la-en properly named "Flsherman'.I'araJIse". On-- ot the finest yacht Clubs In New Je»ey graces "Great Egg Harbor" bay.' - There's a magnesium about the resort that draws r.nd appeals, especially lo the youngi i s« t The first rime they spend their vacation In the place they invariably wish lo come ug{iln. A vast numLt-i ot people dethe year round in Ocean City, nnd ot late years many liave done so, while the men comnint". a-- the Railroad accommodations are such that any one desiring to do »o. can reach their place of business in good lime. The majority are content to spend their time during the summer months In a place where there is to be found ; plenty of recreation pnd pleasure. When anyone goes on a vacation he or she needs a rest, and above all Ocean City Is a testrul place. The older generation rppreclate this fact. There Is not the clamor and noUe of other cities to b» found In tl» resort, and aside front its restful quallflca- » tions It is -i sufe-place for children at any hour of the day or night. This alone appeals lo the many home loving and borne t.bldlng rlt liens, and iroiu a sanitary point ot view unexcelled" for Its cleanliness and healthfulness. which t.iakts II all the more desirable. Recently during the Influents epidemic, hundreds of summer < onagers remained for several months later, cognltant ol the Tact that they were jverfectly safe in a place where there was no danger ot contracting a disease of such a malignant character, for Ocean City Is an Island, bounded by the Atlantic Oct an and Great Egg Harbor Bay, so then-lore It stands a •mall chance at anything like an epidemic ever reaching Its shores. One ot the principal attractions of I he resort Is Its wide spacious streets which the City takes great pride In keeping clean, lor Cleanliness Is next to Godliness, and last but by no means least. Ocean City Is a Godlyplace. adhering strongly toward a conservative Sabbath, and before prohibition weal Into eftrct no saloons marred the sacredncss of the highways. It has been lounded on principles which have proven as strong as the "Rock of Gibraltar", notwithstanding the desire ot a groat number. ot opposing factions in swerve It from those ideals, which the City's forefathers had cemented into the minds of their offsprings, establishing a covenant to be carried out as Its population grew from year to year The old traditions still cling to it. and have • been kept alive by Christian men and women, who have had only the Interest ot the place nt heart, working with a tenacity of purpose born and Instilled into them. This accounts forrits great popularity with the old as well as the young, so if you have never had the pleasure ol beholding this Ideal resort, yon are Invited to pay Ocean City a visit, for each year that you delay, robs you of s rare treat indeed. Tbe abolition of toll charges over the drawbridge will encourage automoblUsts who otherwise might not come. No doubt a test number of tourists will avail themselves of this opportunity afford-i-d them, as soon as this becomes a teallty. It Is expected that it will go Into effect not biter than July 1st.
