The contract for the erection of]h !' <• new High School and educa-jo to- ml plant, were awarded at a ! meeting of the Board of Education ! S held Friday evening. I * The Vice-President, Dr. J.

' The contract for the work of gen- ' * •-•ral construction was awarded to Messrs. J. S. Rodgers, of Phila.lelPhia, for the sum of $338,000. The Guarantee Electrical ComPuny, of Atlantic City, were thesuccessful bidders for the electric/I ' work, the alternative bid being accepted for the sum of $19,000. Four tenders were read for the lieating and ventilation of the new •chool, of which the bid of R. H. Johnson, of Ocean City, for the sum of $68,560 was accepted. K- H. Johnson proved also to bo the lowest bidder for the plumbing and sanitation contract, and to

| him it was awarded to the amount .of $328,650. I The building of the new High School was the subject of much ! speculation and discussion in local j circles, when it became known that ' the tenders for the work aggre1 gated over $100,000- above the ap- ; propriation made. The consensus of opinion howappears to have been that the plans drawn by Architect , Smith should be adhered to as far j as it was possible. Few were heard to favor reduc- 1 lug the size of the building, with the possibility of in a few years, i having to face the problem of ad1 j ding greater room to the structure, j This phase of the situation was ; freely discussed at the adjourned Continued on Page Five ....

GRAPHIC STORY OF iGLASSBLOWlNUSTl , TOLD 10 LEAGUERS 1 - _ i •j WILLIAM R. HUGHES RELATES , THE EXPERIENCES. OF FIFTY YEARS AT CRAFT , •; The art of glass blowing was , : graphically explained and illus , ■ trated, on Monday evening, before , Abe members of tlie Young Men's ( j Progressive League by William i! ' j Hughes, associated with his son | jDr. J. Thornley Hughes in the i ' 1 Cent f at Pharmacy. , To say the address was both in- i

teresting and instructive is a fee- p hie expression. Ml. Hughes pro- „ veil himself a master of the sub-' s : jeet, and has a very lucid manner ,of expressing himself before apurblic audience. Having worked j,. ' j himself for practically half a een-J R tury at the craft of glass blowing i ! he is familiar with the work in | , i all its stage.-. L Mr. Hughes reminded his audi- s ence that the art of glass blow- j ,. 'ing was of greatest antiquity. Re-]., jeent excavations in Egypt have! furnished evidence that the art was practiced in the days of the '

| Phamahs, as toilay, and in much j ithe same manner, at the end of a! | M| is presumed, tlie speaker sta- j tod that glass was first discovered as a result of lightning striking \ upon silica sand or stone, and in ' j the intense beat vitrifying it. 1 By means of an irontuW, Mi." 1 then tlemonstrated how 1 the glass blower picked up a qu- ! 1 iir/fity of the molten glass at the 1 end of the blow-pipe. This part of the work ilemamled great prac- I o i iw wuik immaniteii givai prac- -

tice and precision, because tlie j ■- blower was expected to pick up ; 1 just the quantity of glass requir- ; I etl to make the bottle of the size 1 1 equired. Prhaps. the mos If interesting j < of Mr. Hughes address t the manner in which be trac| | ;ed the ilevelopn^nt made in the t .art of glass blowing. Beginning t with the crudest forms, he related ^ t the story of advancement, until:' the first automatic blowing ma- 1 1 chine was introduceil. Tlie machine was rapidly re- j I iplacing the blower. Mr. Hughes : state- 1. One machine usurps the I > place of eighteen blowers, and the : j indications are that in a very short period of time, glass blowing bymouth will be a lost art. Mr. Hughes' -lescnptlon of the | method un-ler which what is kno- - 1 wn as the Homeopathic VAIL is made was particularly instructive, j The speaker was very minute in detail, and sueeeeiled admirably in conveying to his hearers a veryclear conception of the various processes. At the close of his address, Mr. Hughes invited questions, and in , answer to several queries, described how glass stoppers are made, graduated bottles and vessels, and

glass canes. 1 The glass blower was paid only for the work which passed the te1 st It was therefore necessary / J that he should apply himself dili. f ently, and frequently - it oeeured , that a blower would work for an entire day and earn practically j > nothing, through no fault of his' own. f In the days when Mr. Hughes to ' entered the glass house, the sys- . tern of apprenticeship was in vo- ; | r ] gue. A boy was made to serve for j fire years in the glass house, re-jj j" ' turning half of what he earned s during the perks I to the company j . * j for the privilege of learning the j | craft At the conclusion, the i members of the League expressed j ; * j their appreciation in a rising vote ! ^ : of thanks. Miss Margaret g. Smith, of,, Warren, Pa., is visiting at the he- j , j nie of her cousin Raymond h. Gar- 1 diner and family, it R. R. Bringhurst of Philadelphia, ' a and a summer cottager, was among , - | the week's visitors.

No qualifications of a stringent | character is reciuireil. except that , ! the instrumentalists should have ; . a fair knowledge of his or her in- J , r strument, and above all lie in er- : The first requirement is sinceri-|j ty of purpose. The members now j composing the Society, have band- ! | ed themselves together for the sole i j . purpose of mutual development, and of foxlerin g love for good ! i Common courtesy demands there- | Tore that all meinlicrij should be ' faithful at rehearsal, and apply ' themselves to their parts. Clansic music cannot lie mastered in one practice. No band or orchescan give a creditable performance, Tf one instrument betrays 1 a lack of acquaintance with the ' ' work, and regular rehearsals to- ' gether.

The promoters of the Ocean City 1 Orchestral Societ y proposes to nd- , method of acquainting the general 1 1 pubic with the history and pecu- . qualities of the various inI struments composing a classical ' orchestra. Some instruments co- - .ne down to us from the immemorj ial past, not the igpst interesting | ami important of which is the Oboe. I _ The Olioe, known in French asIthe Haul hoi*, or In German, ax the j Holme, -ir the Hochbolz, is a wooden instrument of conical bore i played, with a double iced, ami of ;| treble pitch, unless otherwise qtiajlifiied by some addition. ' j The double reed is prehistoric, ! and the Oboe, in its crudest form • I is of the greatest antiquity. An ; assortment of the early models i lie seen in the British, Vic- - toria anil Albert, museums. >' By the beginning of tlie Sixteenf th Century, the two chief families " of the double reed instruments, ■ were well established, the Oboe bef ; the aristocratic descendant of . I the Knimmhorns family, which toil | dudes among its members, the Sch- - almey.-, or Shawms pommers. 1'hr little Schalmry with Aas its I I lowest note, being little used, Qie Ijdiscant Schalmey with p as its loL west note has been developed into the modem Oboe. The Bassoon is a . j near relative speaking in A lowet

,jteY- J , The orchestral Oboe, as now . made sounds D, and strictly speak- 1 ing the instrument is in D, hue as; ty the notes sound as written, it j is spoken of as being to C. I The Oboe tube is conical enlar- : . i ging from the reed to the bell. It ( therefore cverblows to the octave, 1 , consisting of three positions, the! . top joint, lower joint, ami the bell. , In addition 'it has a small metal ( ' tube, to which the blades of canej j ' forming the double reed are se- j j ■ cured. ' , The Oboe has been made in B j . flat, and a smaller instrument in i flat. The modern family of the I , ; Oboe consists of tihe Oboe in C, j , ; the Oboe D'Amore in A. the Cor-j | ' anglais in F, and the Baritone in 1 ' C. 1 1 These have a peculiar and iHs- ( - tinctive tone, penatrating and pl- - ending, used extensively in the pe- j , s rioii preceding Handel, to give ( - other instruments the tuning tone. t The Ocean City Orchestral So- \ 1 ciety has lieen fortunate .in secur- - ing the scrrijtjjaf ai/ eminent ( - player of this most-w»rtient and intricate of double-reed instruments. The Oboe will be used at tfoe ( first public concert. Watch for r the date.

Local Kiwanis Club Lunch At Northfield Country Club the Guests of Pleasantville n DISTRICT GOVERNOR GEORGE GEIGEIi OF NEWARK. DEI PUTY DISTRICT GOVERNOR W. F!. EMLEY ATLANTIC ATTEND AND DELIVER ENTHUSIASTIC ADDRESSES

I Ocean City Kitvanls Club lunch- , ci ui the Northfield Country Club 1 u" Tuesday, the honoreil guests of the Pleuxautville branch of the , fraternity. In this manner the local club returned the compliment paid to them, when last Wednesday. the hosts of the present occasion visited Ocean City. The visitation to Northfield was made memorable by the presence ■ of District Governor George Gei- ' gel , of Newark, and Deputy District Governor William E. Emley, of Atluntie City. President Robert L. Race, of Pleasantville, officially welcomed the visitors, expressing the hope that they would as thoroughly enjoy themselves, as they had in visiting Ocean City, to which President Stannard responded with all his customary ability. 1 The members of the entertain- ' ing Club, had evidently determin- : cd to give the visitors, a specimen of their singing. Truth to tell, : they did remurkaMy well, but I ah well, nuff sed! Ocean City Ki- ' " wantons stand alone as songsters. 1 The chief address of the hour, ] was delivered by District Gover- j ' nor George Geiger. A more masterly and impressive interpreta- ! tion of tlie spirit of Kiwanis, could not lie delivered. Prefacing his remarks by compli- 1 menting the two clubs, upon the sp- 1 lendid fraterliaism existing bet- ; 1 ween them, Governor Geiger took 1 1 the word co-operation, as the the- 1 me of his address. The co-opera- i I tive spirit was the genius^of Ki-1 1 wanis, he said. It was moreover j 1

- one of the fundamental laws of '' the universe. Birds" "survived best ' living in flocks, fish swam through 9 the waters in schools. t Co-operation was the spirit of - the age in commerce. The inili- - viduol trailer became merged in a company, companies united to fo- , rm corporations and tursts, these e again combined themselves into . unions ami organizations. The peril which confronted the . age at the present time however, Mr. Geiger continued, was that of ■ submerging all the finer instincts I of the human heart, in hopeless. c sordid Materialism. Kiwanis had - proved the necessary safeguard . against this peril. Coping prind- . pies applied successfully in other | departments of life, under the aegis of Kiwanis, men co-operated to- * . gether to foster a finer spirit of . friendship, one with another, and to , the advantage of others. Kiwanis International hail lent its sup- . port to the building of hospitals, . for the aged and the orphaned. Last year Kiwanis carried to a successful consummation, 5,- ' 000 enterprises for the benefit of mankind, ami was now interesting Itself in tlie onder-prlviledged { child. Deputy Governor Emley follow- . ed in a brief address, in which he . appealed to the two clubs present . ! for their undivided support to the t Governor and the District Officer*. Following the luncheon a numof the members of both clubs - repaired out to the links, there to i- ! test their skill in a game ofgolf.

High School Fourth Annual ; Wrestling and Boxing Tilt Held Thursday and Friday r j ' — _____ '

In- , j previous years, two or three weeks , i been allowed to elapse be- 1 ( tween the two tournaments. jj Owing to the vast amount of , ' work entailed in enlarging the : stage, erecting the ring, and in- ' stalling additional lights, it was , thought advisable to arrange this . ' year that the two events should : ! ' take place in succession. The object of the tournament, ; ; si to determine the individual championships for the various we- , r ights, listed by the Amateur Ath- 1 letic Union. The boys who wrestle and box are the best of each

weight in the public schools of ) Ocean City. They have eliminated all others in their weights and challenges. With a few exceptions the Amateur Athletic Rules , will govern the contests. For the past three weeks the pupils of the public schools, un- j der the direction of Physical Di- J rector Unger, and his pupil assistants George Gardiner and Wm. ' Keller, have been receiving in- ' st ruction in the art of boxing and , wrestling. The pupils are enthusiastic over the work, and turn : out in large numbers for practice after school hours. The stage will be enlarged, and , mats ami a regular 12-foot ring; t properly roped, will be placed up- , no the stage for the contestants. | The stage will be illuminated by ! strong electric lights so that spec- 1 8 tators may see fYom all parts of i het auditorium.
