AT the recent "booster banquet" in Philadelphia, a remark was made at ] •one of the tables that there were a; hundred men in the room who were boys at Ocean City and have grown up with the town. That may or may not , have been true, but there is no question that Ocean City's most prosper- 1, ous citizens have grown up with the resort. Some of them, like William E. , ■ Manner, have lived here practically j all their lives. He was an Ocean City 1 school boy. Others, like B. W. Ed- ; dr aws^ame here when young men and for the last thirty years havei been identified with every movement ' 1 of a public nature. *Q ;i WHERE DO OUR SCHOOLS STAND There is something deplorable In'! the report that in 20,000 papers returned br student* of high schools. ( colleges and normal schools six out of j ' ten questions about men, places and problems of current public importance^ art answere«l wrong or omitted. : Taking 1,000 of this year's high school graduating classes in countrydistricts, small towns and cities, the Institute for Public Service to which ; the 20,000 papers were turned over by j j the Review of Reviews for analysis. I finds that 40 did not recognize Presi- ' dent Harding's picture; 30 did not know who Pershing was; 630 did not ; ; know the meaning of "open shop"; 250 : ; could not mention an item of current interest connected with Washington where the disarmament conference jj was in session, not to mention con- ■ ] great; 800 could not remember the , J much advertised Budget Director ] Dawes; 500 did not know that Mellon j is Secretary' of the Treasury: 970 j could not recognize the picture of the ' United States Commissioner of Education, and 710 did not even know the name of their own State school executive. The only hopeful sign was that fewer senior boys failed on De Valera, j Leonard Wood and Lloyd George than on who won the world series or the star actor in The Three Musketeers, and in the fact that more girl seniors i knew about Sinn Fein and the soldier bonus than knew about Susan Lengien ard Ruth Law. it is rather alarming to note that; 686 normal students who will nextyear teach 635 classes averaged only i 25 per cent., only one student averageing more than 70 per cent TWENTY YEARS AGO Taken From the Files of the Sentinel or February 20, 1902 James M.

SALES OVER S.lOOO.OOO J Increase of 105.004 Car* and Tracks ^ Over Previous Year $. Retail sales of Ford cars, trucks and Ford son tractors have again exceeded ei the million mark for the year 1221. h according to a statement given out to- a 96 day by the Ford Motor Company. ci The Ford factory and assembly 00 plant production figures reached a '® 11 total of 1.050,740 cars, trucks ami ^ 79 tractors/for the year, with retail sales ^4 by dealers approximating 1.098.000. jq which in the United States alone sur- * passed the 1920 retail sales record f 00 by 104518. Ford cars and trucks. 00 The Ford Company says the outlook for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. In tj fact, concrete evidence already exists , in that car and truck retail sales for a, December, 1921, exceeded December, u -4 1 1920 sales by almost 25 Cr, and Ford- p son tractor retail sales for the same p periods show an increase of over. 100 ^ <* far December, 1921, as well as an j, M increase over the total tractor sales C for the month of November. S1 These facts seein to indicate that P , not only are the farmers buying more q i freely, but that th general public is h becoming more responsive and reeep64 tive. JTj Another point brought out by a i comparison of production figures for ® the past two years show that Ford ^ enclosed cars are gaining in popujg larity. as 23 per cent, of the 1921 produetion were Sedans and Coupes as 96 against a total of 18 per cent, for the rear previous. Recent reductions in Ford car and 43 truck prfces brought them to a new 1

level. The Touring car now sells for $348.. the Runabout for $319, tkr Coupe for $580, the Sedan for $643, the Chassis for $285 and the truck for all F. O. B. Detroit. Ford is giving employment at present to approximately 40,000 men In his mam plant at Detroit, the importof- which is emphasized when consideration is given to the fart that neiVly 20 per cent, of the city's popuis directly depndent upon the Motor Company. 25th ANNIVERSARY be Celebrated by Ocean City Lodge, No. 171, F. and A.
