MIA TRIBE PAY FRATERNAL GALL ON RED CLOUD TRIBE: . j IXK Al. RED MEN INVITED TO 1 SEAVILLE FOR POT-PIE ( HICKEN SUPPER j — , A number of Red "Men, con- 1 jtituling the Kalmia Tribe of Ocean City, paid 'a fraternal visit 1 . u> Ki-il Cloud TrjLe of South Sea- t vjHe, on Monday evening. The •' unit was of course purely infor- ' mat. and bore none of the ornate i ceremonialism, associated with the fraternity, when summoned to an c suspicious pow-wow. October 23, the entire aggre- ' tion of the Kalraia Tribe, are in- ' vite-l to the same place, as the ' honored guests of Red Cloud. c That a large delegation will attend the function, is a foregone 1 conclusion; for the information ' is given forth that upon the occas- j ion. the members of the Red Cloud Trit>c. will serve their guests, one 1 of their celebrated Chicken Pot-Pie * Suppers. Ited Men from the days of primitive history, had. more than a 1 sneaking fondness for chicken; ' and civilization has not destroyed ' the fondness, to any noticeable degree. c If the Red Men of today, are as f wise as their ancestors of the r prairies, tbeyfll be on hand when t the pot is opened. t On the same occasion, the Kal- f mia Tribe will demonstrate their prowess with the tomahawk, by ( scalping a party of palefaces, or £ In the less picturesque language { of white men, the local degree team, will confer upon a number l of candidates, the degree of adop- j tion. " . , At their regular meeting held , Wednesday last, the Kalmia t Tribe conferred the same honors upon three novitiates. I The information is given that s the Degree team of the local t trllxs, are to be clad in new uni- ] forms. 1 The order has been given for a 1 superb set of the requisite uni- i forms, and the hope Is entertained, ' that the same will be on hand for i the visit to Red Cloud Tribe of I SeavUle. 1 The knowledge is by this time ] common property, that the Kalmia ' Tribe of Red Men, have purchased a large tract of land at the corner < of Eighth Street and Haven Ave- < nue, measuring 260 feet by 115 I feet. Upon this site the tribe proposes ; to erect a large and commodious i hall and auditorium. i The upper floor will be adapted 1 for the purpose# of a lodge room, anil splendidly equipped with the best appointments procurable. Unless some unforseen circumstance arises to prevent it , the work will be undertaken in the very near future. Advertise In the Sentinel.

A very gratifying thing, is the S ; co-operation manifested By the merchants on Asbury Avenue, i of whom propose to Intro- A . duce unique features on the occas- p Some criticism hasNeen expressi ed, by those who were the active m directors of past carnivals, and therefore highly qualified to speak j, experience, that the route of F , the march was upon previous oc- g, casions, far too long. The concentration of all efforts w , a reconstructed area, was p deemed advisable, and to that end & the parade committee this year, I has decided that the route of the Cc , parade, will be limited between i C , Sixth Street and Twelfth Street,! with the counter march. :ji The question of registration j Cf , this year also will be very much a , simplified.

YE PLYMOUTH INN TO OPENALL WINTER STARTING OCT. 16, POPULAR ' f HOSTELRY WILL HAVE * ROOM FOR FEW GUESTS Ye Plymouth Inn, enjoyed a season of increasing popularity and I success, through the summer. i The House and the manner in I p which it was conducted, was distinctly an experiment as far as t Ocean City is concerned, and a not- 1 able departure from the average 0 hotel. J While the Plymouth Inn Contains s all the appointments, and the con- t veniences of a hotel, faultless ser- n vice, and an excellent cuisine, it p had all the privacy and selective- „ ness of a private home. e ! The guests met en famille, as B | members of one household, around ® a common hearth. None of the j, ? formalism inevitably associated sj j with a public hofel, was in evi- , dcncc. 0 The. popular hostess, Mrs. Eva- ^ '' lyn Fisher Nulty, is in receipt of a sheaf of flattering letters, from ndelighted patrons, who are antiei- ti pating the pleasure of enjoying I the comforts of Ye Plymouth Inn, ; another season. ! The success which attended the j | experiment the past summer, and o| I nt the solicitation of guests who ei ' | desire to remain, Mrs. Nulty wiH y _ | remain open all the winter. There C will he accommodations available ^ for a few guests. During the winter, the samel" | standard of excellence, with re- Vi cards to the appointments, service ! tl ' and table will be maintained. ! pi Mrs. Nulty aspires, to surround , 1 her guests with all the comforts j°' ' of a home, and feel themselves aa)(|j ' members of the family.

" REEPRESENTATIVE OF ELEC* PHONE COMPANIES APPEAR VICE. CHAMBER TO H. ) A topic which commanded clo* Ii attention, and provoked some disj cussion at the meeting of the I Chamber of Commerce, held in the Commissioners Room in the City k ; Hall, Tuesday evening, was the I bill before the legislature, for the ! floating of n '$40,000,000 bond ia-j A letter was read, emanating; r : from the New Jersey Legislative i ' Advisory Committee, bearing the . i signature of the chairman J. H. j ' solidting the active support ! , ; of the Chamber of Commerce, co- 1 i operating with other dvic bodies, i support of the bill. At the outset President E. M. Sutton expressed a desire to exhis views upon the matter, and it should be added, presented a very lucid, and instructive explanation of the problems involved. Mr. Sutton declared that ir,his ' j-'dgment, t'-» bill was one of the most impor.ant. and the most j statesmanlike aef s of legislature, presented before an electorate. He. entertained no doubt upon the matter ,that all present desired good and negotiable roads. Upon condition o its roads, depended very largely the prosperity of ony State. The floating of the proposed bond Mode? to the value of $40,000,000, was the most comprehenand constructive program con eel - able. At the present time as it has teen for long post, the State HighCommission, has had absono money at its command, to provide good and improved roads. Consequently the Commission has driven to the very unsatisexpediency ,of inducing the various counties In the State, provide the money for ; road purpoMo, by the issue of with the promise that fhe same should be refunded at various intervals, ranging through ■ the yearafrom 1923 to 1926. If the bill did not become law, nnd the $40,000,000 worth of bonds Issued as proposed, for th^ of its roads Cape" May County would be placed under the necessity of furnishing approx$450,000. The County would be compelled to do the ' bonding, with the understanding . that the money would be refunded, in the year 1928 or later. This expedient. President Sutton : regarded, as very unsatisfactory.! The more statesmanlike proced- j

The $40,0000.000 provided le i in the bond issue, would be sofflc- . le j ient to provide all the road rely quirements of the State for many >6 years, and also repeal the one mil >e ; tax now in force.

The $40,000,000 provided roads, but also reduce the tnxag tion. i: j •e In the comprehensive program ,e of road developement, that would I. : follow the bond issue, Ocean City -t would materially benefit. m President Sutton then referred », ;to the Warrenite imbroglio ,ocI copying so much attention at the [ present time in the public press., . The Republican party had pledged itself in favor of open spedflcaj tions, and lie had been led to . understand, Mr. Sutton added, that I the leaders cf the Democratic s Party favored the same. e The proposed bill would be one t of the vital questions, before the electorate, at the forthcoming elee^ tion, and, irrespective of party afa filiation, he, Presideni Sutton j thought, the Chamber of Commerce should go on record as favoring the proposal, and endeavor to f secure the co-operation of the newspapers, in creating public sentiment favorable to the bilL _ _ Several members joined In the discussion, and eventually the meeting agreed unanimously, to 'a resolution according to President i 5 Sutton's suggestion. Another matter of particular importance to Ocean City, arose } following the reading of a letter bythe Secretary, bearing upon the a rebuilding of the bridge over Cedar Swamp. " The Secretary stated that at the J wish of several persona, he had ' written the authorities, protesting r. againt the rebuilding of the bridge b , as merely a one way atcommoda : - .-3^ . tion.

President Sutton strongly advocated another alternative, as being far more serviceable to Ocean CityWith the co-operation of the 9 1 people of Atlantic County, Mr. t Sutton felt confident that the powers, that be, could be influenced to undertake the improvement, I I of a direct route from Mays Landding to Somers Point, an alterContinued on Page Eight
