CITY COMMISSIONERS STILL COMMENDED ON SUNOAYOBSERVANCE TWO MORK PUBLIC BODIES ^INDORSE ACTION OF CITY SOLONS "

"l (,IF" Every day should convince the" Boardwalk merchants they arc run- j ning full tilt against the consensus i of public opinion in Ocean City, rel- j ative to th6 question of Sunday; trailing, in the agitation they are. fomenting by their refusal to recognize and respect the city laws, • appertaining to the matter. | On the other hand, the city au- | | thorities have the satisfaction of, knowing atf overwhelming majority \ j of tho, citizens of the municipality ■ .lea i ll I phalanx of •oi|ip<« 1*. ! hind them. it is not frequently that public ' officials can lie certain they are pleasing the public they sc/.-e, which distinctly and emphatically 1 c , demonstrates to all and sundry, j 1 1 that the people of Ocean City are;' , in no -doubt concerning theirview, | anent the problem of Sundav ob- 1 " servanee. ■ The spirit of the city is 'dead 1 set against Sunday trading. The c ^city was founded, and in the main 1 i- peopled and supported by those who came here to escape the open v Sunday. o Nearly every public and civic 'i organization in tho city has gone « on record, loudly commending the » city autlinrities u|>on the stand 1 tltey have adopted. At tR> regular meeting of the 1 s Board of City Commissioners, held I r on Monday at the City Hall, two s communications were read, bpth '■ from organizations of first rank!" and influence in the civic life of!" the community, joining in the uni- |P versal chorus of approbation. 1 The first communication read 1 ' was from the CImmhcr of Com- 11 merer. At the last meeting of that | ' body held in the Ocean City Yacht j P Club, the company present express- ,r ed their approval of the City Com- l* missioncrs, with an unanimous vote; and instructed the secretary o: to convey the sentiments of the a. meeting to Mayor Joseph G. ci Champion. nThe sccgnii. letter came from the if. Ocean City Tahernacle Association, vl unquestionably the oldest orgayiza- hi tion in the city, and perhaps the oldest of its kind in the State. tl The letter o^nl as follows: si To His Honor, tylayor Champion, ' 01 and his officers: We ,thc members of the Ocean City Tabernacle Association and dt the larfce congregation of visiting ei strangers, assembled in the Audi- ! P' torium yesterilay, with entire unanimity, by request of the of- ar firiating clergyman, the Rev. Cary Bi S. Thomas, pastor of the Belmont cii Baptist Church of Philadelphia, are communicating to you their i Al

S, mos^ hearty commendation your ; stremiout and well-directed efforts M1 to preserve _ to the God-loving : people of Ocean City their legal and God-given rights to one day of E sanctity and quiet, praying that you may prove more and mure successful each Sabbath unto the end of the season. S JAMES E. LAKE, President. II. Si BURKETT, Superintendent. _ Ocean City, N. J., Aug. C. 1022.; 1 Two' other communications were: " j read, anil placed on file, one again : "'front the Chamber oT Commerce, ■. " i advocating the erection at an early j y date, of a High School anil Edu- , Pj rational plant, "capable of coping ■ i with the giving need s of the city, : anil worthy of the city. , The need of a new High School - and facilities for the increasing re- 1 f quirements of the Staate Summer, ' | School, is unquestionable, i Several civic bodies have endors- j j ed the idea, since the Kiwanis Club J i went record to that effect at ! ; i a recent noon-day luncheon. — i i The erection of a suitable, edu- j' ' j cntiffnnl plant, will inevitably meet'1 j wiuLsomc opposition from the tax- j j It Rs^hereforc highly satisfac- 1 . tory, that vuriouX public bodies are 1 1 j interesting them selves in the mat- j 1 ter, for by so doing they will edu- 1 1 catc public sentiment up to th& i The fourth communication read j ' was from a member of the faculty of the Stat* Summer School, thanking Mayor', Champion, and his colin 'the administration, for . all the courtesy anil kindness shown . them during their stay in the city. i The meeting throughout, on ( was exceptional in many - respects, as was remarked. Not a ( single complaint was received by , I letter, or by a personal appearance , , at the session. Everything ran j smoothly on cushiomtires, and only , ' praises were heard. 1 , A fifth communication was read, \ the committee in charge of ; arrangements for .the Atlantic City Pageant, desiring to know what , ; patt the city would take in the ( , monster parade, scheduled for Sep- | 1 tcmbcr Tth. ' j Mayor Joseph G. Champion was,t of opinion the publicity would be advantageous to the city, and the j t should participate. Finally the j e matter was left hi the hands of the-. who intimated he would in- i) vite the co-operation of the Cham- i v l»,WCo.™™ , City Engineer Collisson reported j • all contracts were progressing j * satisfactorily, several of them j, nearing completion. j,| : jC Mr. and Mrs. Kellerman gave a j sailin* party on Monday : C evening.

COMPACT TO BOOST s OCEAN CITY DOWN : IN ST PETERSBURG |t PROMINENT OFFICIAL OF CHAMBER OWFOMMERCE t. VISITS CITY 2.1 : rc 41 uite recently U. a. Lawrence, in : Jr., Vice-President of the Executive p, 'Board of the St. Petersburg Cham-, y her of Commerce, paid a visit to 1 i- Ocean City and called at the offices j g , of F. Leroy Howe, It transpired that the St. Peters- j I' burg Chamber of Commerce are carrying on an extensive scheme of enquiry and investigation for. the r | purpose of discovering a prosper"us resort in the East with which , they might enter into a reciprocity : I, campaign of advertising. t Mr. Lawrence gave unqualified j preference to Ocean City over all ; ' other resorts. Mr. Lawrence des1 1 covered in Ocean City, according 1 . j to his statement, a closer affinity i of espirit with St. Petersburg, a i . i closer resemblance in their general , | moral and social tone of the com- _ j munity, tlft&pn any other place on i . j the coas^. ] i j "You "-have precisely the same, j quality of people here as we havf," I is reported to have said. "Of all 1 , ; resorts in the East which I have ■ visited, Ocean City appeals to me \ most strongly. I find in Ocean . City, what we pride in most highly I St. Petersburg: a population j , ' composed of the good, solid j ; middle class, representing the high- , 1 est type of pure Americanism, j 1 is mi reason why the twoj' ■ cities should not co-operate V o J reciprocity plan of advertising for!' 1 tho equal benefit of both. j 1 As an outcome of the. visit, ar- ' ' rangements have been made be- i tween Mr. Lawrence and Mr. Howe, J > whereby both cities may be mutu- < j ally lienoflted. \ Mr. Howe, at his offices will have • ■ hand a large assortment of lit- i erature appertaining to St. Peters- * burg" for free distribution to all i persons who may be interested in [ , the Florida resort. i In like mtuiner, Mr. I-awrence * j will be kept supplied with all lit- J erature advertising Ocean City. ■ The arrangement includes that a , large sign will be placed on a con- 1 ■ venient place near the Boanlwalk, ■ ; proclaiming the more salient viri of St. Petersburg, with the added information that all enquirrelative to the city may be ad- , dressed to the secretary of theiu I Ocean City Chamber of Commerce. J A similar sign,- boosting. Ocean j will be erected on Central , | Avenue, St. Petersburg. The value of the scheme cannot : lightly' estimated. There is no 1 why Ocean City should not , a large dientile from that . : section of tWicountry. ' , Similar arrangements might be perfected with other cities of simi- E

, lar character, w hich wauhl prove ' profitable to all concerneils— The erection of the new Ocean U Front Hotel should prove an inn r active to greater publicity than Gthe city has so far attempted. During his visit to Ocean City, Mr. Lawrence is reported to have called upon Hulph Chester, C. H. p Kelk, and E. A. Corson, with whom he had previously made acquainti ancP- ( 0 . 1 ARRIVALS AT THE" c, COMMUNITY HOUSE ' e Among the late arrivuls at The i- 1 Community .

AS TEDDY JR SEES IT Editor's Note: The recent triumph of progressive Republican candidates in various states and up»et of- other Old Guard leader! brought forth the following comment from Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.. Assistant ..Secretary of the Navy. when, approached by the Washington representative of this newspaper: I AM delighted with Gifford Pinchot s victory in Pennsylvania. It indicates a general trend toward progressive ideals. In this connection, however, it is necessary to bear in mind that since 1912 lines ate Marred coosideriUy on progressive policies I For example, a very large part of the 1912 progretaive platform has- already become the law of the land. In thia, woman suffrage is a specific incident. «w /€»X^V«*-<^L
