Strolling gypsy fortune-tellers, immodest and saljcious performances ,and gambling devices ad infinitum, generally constitute the stock in trade of a traveling carnival. It cannot be too clearly stated therefore, that Ocean City's Hallowe'en Carnival is strictly home-made, and home-grown. It is not in the remotest degree a money-making scheme. Whatever ulterior Motive may M attributed to the promoters of the carnival, the visitor will be 'privileged to see and hear all .and participate freely in the feast of fun and frolic, and be under the obligation of spending no more than the cost of transportation here and home. Finally it should be stated that Ocean City's Hallowe'en Carnival, : wffl be conducted this year, as hitherto, in a manner perfectly in keeping with the restrictions of the dty. It will logically be of a more ambitious character than hitherfore, in conformity with the spirit of progressiveness which appears to have taken complete possession of the city; nevertheless nothinrwHlW permitted which will detract from the enviable character, which Ocean aty bears in the estimation of those whore respect and favor U worth preserving. | Ocean City is a family resort, and the Hallowe'en Carnival is a family affair. Far and distant be the day, when Ocean City will give sanction to any form of amusement, in which all members of the family .irrespective of age or rex, cannot with perfect freedom participate. . and run no risk ..f meeting with anything of an objectionable andj dubious character. H»e Hallowe'en Carnival is in a very real sen*, the offspring of the Young Men's Progressive League. The Carnival had its genises hi the League. Other organisations, civic and fraternal, lend their most loyal support. At a recent noon luncheon of the Kiwanis Club, the members of that organisation went on record, pledging themselves in a big spirited way. to support the movement, "in any way the Young Men's Progressive League desired." Financial support will be expected this year as in the past, from the merchants and business bouses in the riiy. Notwithstanding the unspeakably great amount of work and worry, entailed in promoting the carnival, is borne by the members of the Young Men's Progressive League. This year the .Morgan-Ran ek Post of the American legion, has; undertaken to make all arrangements for the trap-shooting contest, to be held In the morning of Hie day, nevertheless, it remains true that the League are the prwoelurs of the carnival. In pioneering the Hallowe'en Carnival, it may be said of the Young Men's Progressive League, that "they built better than they knew." The carnival was promoted originally, so we Wave been informed, for the sole purpose of diverting the exuberent spirits of young folk, into channels less harmful than the pranks, which for some un accountable reason, have become associated with an ecclesiastical festival — that! of All-Saints. All-Hallow's Eve has many times, especially in country districts, been attended by considerable damage to property. For the purpose of giving the young folks some form of innocent amusement, the Young Men's Progressive Lfcague in the first place, established their Hallowe'en Carnival. To all seeming the results of the experiment have been all that was desired; and the League has wrought valuable service to the community, in so doing. The Hallowe'en Carnival however, seems destined to become, and cold be made to become, with proper and wise administration, an ' asset of inestimable value to the eity. J The Young Men's Progressive League claims ^hat the season does /not end in Ocean City, with Labor Day, but rather with the Hallowe'en) Carnival. Certain factors' seem to Justify the assumption; for we are Informed that three or four hotel proprietors, have made arrangements to keep their houses open, until after the occasion, for the entertainment of visitors who may come for the week end. Furthermore there is a probability that both the Pennsylvania and the Reading Railroad Companiej, will run special trains, from points within a certain radius, tor the occasion. The Shore Fast Line, hare definitely stated they will extend their service for the afternoon and evening of the day. The mere fact that these respective corporations, are considering even the advisability of supplying additional transportation facilities, indicates two things of importance. It indicates their' willingness to cooperate in any scheme the city may adopt, to extend- the season; and it furthermore indicates that in their judgment, the Hallowe'en Carnival could be made an annual event of such magnitude and attraction, that vision may be induced almost 'automatically, to remain over! until after Hallowe'en, while others may be induced to make a week; end visit for the occasion. (There is no reason why it should 'be assumed that the season I closes on Labor Day, The season does not closetn Atlantic Ctty with' Labor Day. The enterprising people who have made that reaoH the a playground of the world, claim their Autumn season attracts a clien: 1 tele, even more desirable than that of the summer. The season has closed In Ocean aty in the past on Labor Day,; 1 because we have arbitrarily closed it then. As soon as Labor Day is j come and gone, practically all forms of recreation and amusement I i

have ceased, and with consummate politeness we have told visitors, lo ■ 'clear out that we may go into winter hibernation. With our delightfully equabble climate, we could by providing entertainment and amusement for our visitors, extend the vacation season proper until winter sets in. A prominent member of the Atlantic City Chamber of Commerce, - interviewing the secretary of a fraternal organization, with the view of inducing thrt body to hold it* next convention there, was asked: "When the^season close in Atlantic City?" j "Just when we say it shall dose," came the reply. "If. we decided _ ! it shall close on Christmas Day, it will not close a day earlier. Atlantic aty is America's great playground, and as long as we provide the toys, the playing season need never end." The same might be made true of Ocean City, If we are so minded. Neither Rome nor Atlantic City were built in a day. It is by developt ing to the highest degree, all its recreational resources, that Atlantic , aty has become the nation's playground. The Young Men's Progressive League, have in their Hallowe'en j Carnival, formed the neucleus of an event which might lie develop*' into unlimited possibilities. It cannot be done however without money. n The program outlined for the Hallowe'en Carnival, will t entail an expenditure of approximately $1,500, with the exercise oi i strict economy, and the voluntary labors of the members of the . league. One of two alternatives is therefore open to choice. Either we 'may allow the Hallowe'en Carnival to drag out an existence, merely as a little frolic for ourselves; or we can, by cooperating, and by supn ' porting it financially, turn it into a medium of publicity and adrer- ^ tisement of far-reaching influence, and into one of the chief attractions of the Autumn seasdti. In fact it could be used as a means ol creating an Autumn season. B I 't 1* evident the Young Men's Progressive J-eague, cannot do thi> 1 1 of their own resources It should be mada a community affair, foi a whatever gain might accrue from it, would be a gain to the eommun |ity as a whole. _ i Lost year, so we are informed, delegations attended from severs f neighboring resort* and communities, and actively participated in the festivities of the occasion. I_ On a smaller and less ambitious scale, at least to begin, we migh' n adopt some of the methods employed by Atlantic aty in advert! sin; ir their celebrated pageant. The probaliliility is that the Inst pagean ir brought thousands into the city who were never there before, but wh< a | will return next year to spend their vacation. 0 ' The pageant carried the name of Atlantic aty into every Stab in the Union, and secured a measure of free publicity to the valui j | at ordinary rates, of millions of dollars. Someone has said tha ^ i America has forgotten the wsy to play. Granting this may be true America has not lost her interest in play, and even those who, in thi e ' stress and strain of the active life the average American* leads, hsv, ^ forgotten how to play, love to hear and read of others at play, f. | Newspapers like grocers, must cater to the wishes of the public n ' and carry in stork the most saleable goods. An enterprising news h ' paper, and likewise a grocer,' may display in the window occasionally | an article with the object of educating the public, and cultivating i a taste for something more nutritious and wholesome than its ordinar; v diet; nevertheless, inasmuch a»T neither newspapers, nor grocery stores are run ,-is philanthkophies, both must devote the larger space upoi e> their shelves, to the things in greatest demand. 1(lj For thi reason, sport and amusement, frolic oad fun, pageant and carnivals, are given greater free publicity than any other fom jf of human endeavor, and the town or dty which eaters most to surl ^ enterprises, occupies the spot-light on the newspaper stage. jt With stronger financial backing, the Hallowe'en Carnival couli ^ be developed, to include certain features, which would attract largi in delegations much further afield than H has, and at little or no cost secure a large amount of advertisement in territories where the nam. ^ and vitues of Ocean aty as a resort, are practically unknown. lt The ""me of Ocean City would appear alone on the screen for a far as we have been able to learn, no resort in this section of the con d tinerft, is making any special effort as late as Hallowe'en. n Ocean aty was first upon the field and has therefore first dsin upon public patronage. u Other resort* might in due season think it advisable tb organix. ^ some form of Hallowe'en celebration; but having once established i it tXmt t0T "* C*""v*1' no riv"1 ">b Ocean City of its Autumna j glory. ^ Most respectfully we say it, and with all deference to the siste y resort, just as it would be useless for Ocean City,, or any ndghborin, resort to attempt to stage a rival pageant, to that of Alantic City ii d the early days of September, so would it be useless for Atlantic at; ^ or any other resort, to engineer a rival Hallowe'en Carnival, provid ^ ing we make the celebration of sufficient importance, to attract mon than local interest. In brief the possibilities lies within our reach as a community, o Zt "Paring: the Young Men's Progressive League's OmdraL into ai ' advertisement medium, and a means of extending the season until th. ^ end of October, which no amount of money could buy. f It is to be devoutly hoped therefore, that this year's Carnival ' will have the hearty support of the entire communiy. ^ If a sucrss, the ultimate gain will be to the dty, not to th. '-"Pte- The fact that the members of the Lesgue are undertakin; the entire work of organizing the celebration, as a patriotic duty (d without the remotest hope of reaping any reward individually or col lectively, establishes for them a moral claim upon every man, womai and child for cooperation. Why not make this year's carnival such a triumph of civic com munal endeavor, that we may the coming Spring advertise it abroa. as one of the recreational attractions of the resort, and offer it as ai ™ inducement to visitors to extend their stay until the event V Sunday, 1 October 22 in m Philadelphia 'd Ml Returning, leaves Philadelphia (Market St. Whf) 7J0 A.
