( — —J — I— a ROSS FERGUSON RETURNS „ Some of his friends may be glad B to know that Ross Ferguson who , graduated from O. C. H. S., and t who has been attending Rutgers j, College this year, has returned to „ Ocean City, ami Is now employed J; in the local post office. Fergie as he is sometimes call- c ed, says that he might come buck to school, to play base ball this t spring. He says that if the tea- „ chers are good enough to keep f Phil, they should be kind enough to lake me Irack. It Is too hail that t Fergie did not return sooner, for we believe that owing to his sev- (] eral years experience, in the local L post office, that he should have had j the postmastership. It Is believed that Fergie is studying to be a j (j politician; for he was seen the other morning, coming out of Gar- L •liners Store, with every kind of a morning paper that comes into ( Ocean City. He says that he reads || them all. t A. J. F. SCHEDULE OF ACTIVI- I — TIES The A. J. F. Cllub has added to t

'I r.XVHKRS ARE POPULAR I There is one thing that is true, . that ull the teachers in our high school, are well liked by their stui dents. At least it uppears that ■ for there haven't iieen any, , on account of the tenI chers getting on the pupils nerves. This is the way that Caroline 1ma senoir in the Stevens High' School, laincaster. Pa., got rid of I teacher, because her teacher . 1 got on her nerves. She hiked <18 I miles to Philadelphia, to get out j of going to school. She was lo- ] rated at the Y. W. C. A., and was . i urged to return home, hut not to , , go luirk to school. | •ANTI-FLIRTING RULES Last week was anti-flirt week ' in Washington anil Chicago. The : women's organizations and woleaders in social work, got to-, gether, discussed facts regarding and brought them to the attention of the girls of the two , cities. It might lie well if the girls of City, stopped and meditated awhile on this subject. Flirting is not a new evil. It has been a danpastime for many genera1 lions. The suggestion of one man , • that the best way to discourage is not to notice it or think about it, probably presents as simple a remedy as any. The following non-flirting code, composed mostly of fairly sensible "don*ts," might lie considered, by the ginls of the city, and those wise enough lo heed them, may profit thereby. Don't flirt, those who flirt in has- ' often repent at leisure. Don't accept rides from flirting j motorists; they don't all invite you | in to save you a walk. Dou't use your eyes for ogling. ]■ Don't go out with fellows you jdont know. Don't wink, a flutter of one eye] may cause a tear in the other. 1 Don't smile at flirtitious stransave the smile for people you • 'j know. . Don't annex all the men you can get. by flirting with many, you may ■ out on the one. Don't let eldenly men with an eye p flirtation, pat you on the ahoul-j

On one occasion she heav- 1 ed it so hard that -it ascended high up among the rafters, ami dp- 1 cended from whence it came. 1 ! ;t Only fifteen chances to shoot ' 1 from the field during thirty min- ' utes. That looks like pretty goml 1 ■ covering up for Soulier and John- ' ' son of Cape May.

• Wrigbt "will lie just a plain spec- : Two peculiar incidents happen- \ ed on the howl court tbe other ! night. One was when Referee Jo- s In. -mi gave an exhibition of has- ' ket I will shooting, and th<' other . .me was when he gave an exhibi- I ,tion of tumbling. Millville called time, ami Roy thought thnt aMillville was for hi the lear. I that lie wouhj show 'them how to I •fiop tliem in. from the* center of > • lie floor. He certainly did dem- I . onstrale his ability well, by drop- 3 ping two through the loop perfoi.tly. It is thought that he and Mangold, should change positions | .-•nee MuiigcJd tells Roy so much J about bis decisions, and Roy without words, but with a practical cage the leather pill. Roy's tumbling exhibition was I1 enjoyed by all. It was like this. Roy tossed up the hall at center, 'and immediately he blew the whistle. for Barron had fouled by : touching the ball going up. Mur- r. the whistle, hurring with lightn- tl ing like speed to receive the hall, o came in contact with Roy. Well, w Roy turned about three sommer- 0: suults. Roy got up and started ei singing that favorite sung. "I am 2. always In the way." It Herschel. that was a pretty shot d you made in the last five seconds tl of play. That put Your name a-,Ci mong the others in helping to dent ai

Millville H. S. eliminating Atl.intic City H. S. from the South 4 Jersey tourney, certainly was a • big surprise. However it was At- ► lantic City's own fault. They started their second team men at '.he beginning of the game, think- j, 1 ing Millville would he easy pick- , ■ ing. But it Itupiiciied just the re- 1 1 verse. | Almost in any game the best . ' men' should lie put in, and later i if the game i< a run-away, put in 1 ■ nc-suhs. !i Then too, we can never tell what t n little team will do. Sometimes | unexpected happenings will come from them. , Pleasantvi'lp isn't such a poor team after all. They eliminated j Woodbury from Jthe tournament ( in great fashion 35 to 29. Earlier in the season Woodbury nearly ( toppled Atlantic City High. Fellows ! Just take off your specs and . read this. It sounds like the "tur- , , tie's whiskers." j It looks as if Ray Kite, couch ( of the Cape May High basket hall ^ • team, is a humorist of the first' order. Roy broke into print the

other afternoon, with a sensational challenge to Passaic High, for .a game to be played on a neutral court. He promised, that if ever : the game were staged, he would the champs by at least ten points! Whut are you going to : Ray, drug the Passaic quintet ? Ocean City heat Cape May City 2S to 27 and Passaic whaled tar out of O. C. H. S. 109 to 10. All those who feel Fite will not lie able to keep his promise, stand up! All right, everybody sit clown. There is one thing certain thut Plissaic accepted all the games' offered, tlie members of the team wouldn't get any more education . than un African cannibal. BOOTLEGGERS BEWARE ! The Mock Trial given by the l Senior Class on Thursday was a wonderful success. The defendant Mr. George Gardiner was accused of violating the Act, or In oilier words, . of being a bootlegger. Mr. Carl Risley the prohibition agent stated, that while walking down Asbury avenue, he detected the odor of liquor. Upon investi- . gallon he discovered a garage, . which he entered after calling the chief of police, Mr. Venable. to his assistance. He ulso stated as , they entered, Mr. Gardiner rush- , ed out, knocking both of thein Mr. 'Venable produced a bottle, , the contents of which were supposed to have Iieen captured in the raiil. He thinks that Mr. Gardiner makes pretty good stuff. Another interesting feature proI duced in favor of the State, was the small still, claimed by the prohibition agent to have beenuscd for experimental purposes. I Mr. Peter Totten, counsel for • the defense, tried to prove to the i court, that the defendant accom- , pnnied by Miss Octavene Riley, i was in Atlantic City, particlpat- > ing in a basket ball game, at tie time of the raid. Other witnesses , for the defense were: Mr. Fred.' i Currte and Miss Elizabeth Sink- . | insoo,. They stated that they had I seen Mr. Gardiner and Miss Riley: i Atlantic City. I However, Mr. Seaman, counsel; • ifor the State, proved that Mr. 'Gardiner was guilty of violating ' the Constitution of the United I

States. He «-lced that the jury convict the defendant, that it might he a warning to all other • i . Gardiner jvae found guilty, and un- sentenced by Judge Ch:i . ■ trihb to a minimum of five months tabor in the Ocean City High ffeliool. Other court officers were: Miss . Powell and Mr. Ru-sell Le- ! Tmlrneaii, tipstaffs; Miss Freda ' Steelma.i, court stenographer; Mr. Smith, county clerk, and Mr. Doyle Huff, court crier. local high lasses lose tojape mat PILEGGI FEATURES FOR LOCAL FIVE.
