for »lin->- coming Mr. Uncer ami Gaudy, County Health ' Teacher, are making arrangements 1 will appeal in the ascmbly room of the high school, next Saturday] after, at 2.30 o'clock. The name of the little play which they : will pre.a'iit is "Pierrot and the ! t Health Fairy." The Philadelphia i Health Fairies are employed by the] ■ Hew Jci.-ey Tuberculosis I-eugue, j to give a certain number of per- j I formal"'*-* i" the Various counties, a throughout the state, each city j f •ellim.' a certain number of Christmas seals. This is one of the ways, .- by which w e are rewarded for the 1 1 elfoits. which wc put forth in sell- f jug Sliis.00 worth of Christmas i Seals in Ocean City. a The Fairies come in the place of "Humpty Dumpty," the health f down, whom many of our pupils t will reincmlicr a year ago. The I impressions lie left behind will al- i ways remain in the minds of the r school children. He entertained t them with health facts, given in un h interesting and unique way. The c children will never forget some of is the statements and the manner in tl which he demonstrated them. For t example, "An apple a day will keep the doctor away." "Brush , your teeth up ami down, round and ( round." "Tea makes you nervous ,, and coffee makes you weak." | "Drink at least a pint of milk a *] day." "Wash hands and face lie- c fore each meal." "Take two baths „ a week." I, Supt. Stevens has given his l hourly approval of having them f here, and he tiiinks that the chil- t dren will derive a great ileal of t benefit from their visit and enter- ' / tain men L t The entertainment is principally 1 a f.n the children and the teachers, Lit if there arc any parents and a friends who desire to come, they »

' I teachers was held last Wednesday! i afternoon in the eighth grade:' room, in the high school building. p , j Since we are assured of the new ] f high school building, it is always]' ja pleasure to meet an.l hear Supt.j I tell us something about i i - "interesting features of the newi | structure. There are some things that *\o hate to heat, but have to!, One of which is the exhorb- j price charged for material! and equipment. He said thut tiicre were several j ^ plans underway by which the ! *| teachers could help in rnising suf- ! j ficient funds to equip the auditor-] with a pipe organ. After the] meeting, one of the teachers sug- ^ g* -steal that the list of the alumni j procure*! from the teacher who] compiled it, and that a letter be i " sent to each one of them, asking | 1 ] for a contribution towards j " the organ. " j-1 Supt. Stevens state*! that a few j v of tlio 700 piling had arrived and J that they wapiti start putting them 1 ( down next week. Over 1,000,000 will go into the building. ],: : building will lie located in the s center of" the block, between Fifth : ' and Sixth streets. Ocean and At- c lantic avenues, and face on Atlan- ] tic avenue. There will be 150 ft. j from each end of the building, to _ the Fifth ami Sixth . streets, and ] t there will Is* CO feet hack from r Avenue nnd 20 feet from ] ^ the rear of the huildiug to Ocean i ( avenue. j AH the teachers who had made ] I application to return next year j - elected at the last Board j i

meeting. , The total enrollment in March 1 was 1048, fully 200 more than a year ago. In the three first grade : f rooms there were over 150 pupils. The rooms are becoming so oever- ^ crowded that it is becoming a prob- ; lem with Supt. Stevens just what to do with the early comers, those coming down from Philadelphia ; ' and elsewhere, for the summer He told of the advantages and I of the disadvantages of the two I j sessions which are now in opera- I , ; tion in the sixth and eighth grade, i .] alternating: that is, the pupils who i at 8 and 12 o'clock, chang- i j ing each week w ith those who < ] come -at 10 and 2. This scheme j might lie tried out next year. It I | is being done other places. I In "ill probability the seventh I , grade and some of the- other grades i will have to be put on double ses- I sions at the beginning of next i year. This method will only be ( j temporary however, until the new i building is completed. c Supt. Stevens discussed at some I i length about forestry which was | the topic of the day, since Arbor i Day was but two days off. He said that the schools will 1 I close on June 15th and that the f commencement exercises would be i j on Thursday night, June 14. ] exercises have been held on i j evening in previous years, r _|_l_ i TEACHERS' INSTITUTE AT CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE 1 l-ast Monday the pupils enjoyed holiday, while their teachers mo|tored to Cape May Court House to | ] attend the Cape May County ' : Teachers' Institute. The meetings ' were held in the high school build- 1 i with Edwin R. Brunyate, the 1 i Superintendent presiding. ' i The teachers derived a great ] deal of benefit from the institute, ( since it gave them an opportunity to learn what is being done in , other places. The program was as follows: 9.30 A. M. — Devotional exercises , —Singing, Miss Louise Ball, direc- , ] 10.000 — Primary Grades, De- , monstration Lesson, Miss Juliette | I Ycung, Cape May Court House; , ] Grades, Demonstration : l_esson, Regional Geography, Miss . j Forbes, Boston; High School j— Address, Dr. L.

Mrs. Unger is as-:1 - sisting Prof. Unger and the teach- ] > with the Folk Dances. ■ The teachers believe that the 1 festival will be hotter and more: this year than ever be- ] i fore, owing to the fact of their be- j i more spectacular numbers on , ■ the list of events. It is planned to ] : make it an all day affair; the ex- ] ■ erdses, drills, dances etc., to take 1 place in the forenoon and an interclass track and field meet, for the i school students, and specially : : prepared events fo r the grades, ] ' the afternoon. The big problem that is con- 1*; ! the school officials is to j i a suitable place to hold the I festival. More will bo published concern-, i ing the big affair ns the time draws ' near. The date for the festival is I May 25th. . FISTIC CHAMP WINS MORE LAURELS All, the pupils are elated over , the fact that one of their like be- ' , ings is working his way gradually I , the ladder of success in the fis- : . tic world. Paul Pileggi, nick-nam- , Paul Doyle, Journeyed to Atlan- 1 tic City last Wednesday evening ami raised himself one round higher on the ladder of being crowned ] the inter-city amateur feathcr- | weight champion, by putting Jack Stanley in the land of dreams in , two rounds at the Strand Theatre. Through Pauls ability at hitting 1 and standing a hit occasionally, • cleverness of foot work and brain • work, and his shiftiness, he proved 1 himself a marvel over his heavier > opponent. i AUGUSTUS GOETZ MADE 1 MEMBER OF ROWING CREW , All the students should feel clat- ■ ed over the fact that Augustus

d j Goetz, one of our alumni, gradui aled from our school two years ' y ! ago, has been made a permanent L ' member of the rowing crew at the University of Pcnn. He ha* a ! ; cinch position, No. C on the Blue : crew. He is ul.sip.thc third from - lieing the heaviest man on the - j Coach Joe Wright has three 1, 1 crews, namely, blue, red and the ! : B j lightweight. Up to the present ' I . time the blues and. the reds have. I i shown the most consistent form : : f anil the one which has shown the ; t very licst is the blue, of which . . j Goetz is a member. .] All three crews leave this morn- i ] ing for Annapolis, to compete in i 5 the opening regatta, with the Navy , B I on the Severn river, next Satur- , . ] day. They will arrive in time to i . hold a work out this afternoon and , . ' two tomorrow. , Coach Wright savs that if the I . ] water is rough the red crew will , j be sent in against the Navy, as . they are a trifle heavier. But if i , I the is balmy and the water is | f : smooth, Coach Wright will select , the blue. ; Here's hoping that Saturday is ; . ..an ideal day ami that the blue, of , , j which Augustus is one, will be se- » lecteil to row the 4 '4 mile course. • Wc should feel proud of having * . ] one of our splendid boys go out * land make a University team. He | s I is one of the finest athletes that , j our school ever turned out. He j played football, baseball and put the shot and was one of the high3 est in his studies while of our ( r school. He has always lived a | . j clean life, never smoked, never ] f j used profanity ami was always | . ! willing to co-operate with all the i . I school activities whenever possible | . Invariably this kind of a fellow is * , selected to represent the instution ] which they are attending. , j So far as known, Augustus Goetz | is the first one ever to go out from . t our schools who has made a place ( 1 on any university team. fe!*"* 1 { A MERRY PARTY One of the most enjoyable events „ of the season was a party given il on Tuesday evening, April 10, by r Miss Arien Bailey, at her home, : 1049 Asbury avenue. The evening was nearly all taken up by games. Somebody said, 1 "What shall we play?" and a voice : - (somewhat familiar to Fred Curs rie's) answered, "postoffice." Other .

- suggestions were heard, but this sjone was carried out first. t Dainty ref reshmcnls were servtied and the boys were so hungry 1 1 they ate all the ladies' fingers, s Among those present were Ruth ) ; Pruitt, Emily Peliggi, Edith ; ] Brownmiller, Eloise Smith, Florience Mitchell, Thomas Williams, ■ j Robert Gordon, Frederick Currie ! and Doyle Huff. They all went t ] early. * -l-l-1 1 FOUR IMPORTANT ELECTIONS; s At a recent meeting of the high i school Athletic Association, Lee! Adams was elected manager of the ! ■ track team; Doyle Huff was electi ed captain of the track team, Jdar- ' cus Blackman was elected manager ■ of next year's basket ball team, * while George Gardiner was elected I captain of the base ball nine. ' NINE BOUND FOR 1 CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE Next Saturday the base ball ' will go to Cape May Court 1 to play the high school nine ; of that place. The game with Pleasantville last 1 was called off on account of wet grounds. Our boys have been practicing on ■ and Thursday evenings on : the Somers Point baseball diamond ; So far, the boys have been unabie ! to secure suitable grounds locally, ; which to play. — I — I — SIX BIRTHDAYS Never has there been a month this year which has had so few ' this- month.

The 1914 edition of the "American Red Cross 8 Text Book on Hygiene, and Home 1 n Care for the Sivk" was rejected. e The 1918 edltioif of the same text ^ book was approved. o WHAT SAID YOUR TEACHERS? n Dr. Van Dyke, of Rutgers, says r that ten days' closing of schools

• at Easter time was too long. He ■ also says that the 180-day period , ; is too short, and that we should I have school every day in the year. Well, Dr. Van Dyke should come i Ocean City some Easter. He • would find that our vacation is not .quite as long. And as to school : | all ihe year-rofind, we might say that both teachers and pupils de- ] a rest after their long stretch of Work. — 1 — I — I PAGE THE MOl'THORGAN BAND Oh boy, do you recall your Icidj hood days and how you got a real thrill from a mouth organ? Recall how you puckered your lips as you drew real harmony from from the old harmonica? Mouth organ days are coming again. A number of the cities arranging contests, to decide i the champion mouth organist. A prize and other honors will be given to the one who is judged to the best musician. In one town, not many miles Ocean City, there is a mouth > club consisting of 35 boys, i who meet once a week for practice. The leader said that the boy's are . making big headway. Tr ie, if a boy can play a mouth . correctly, it is a good bet he will be able to play some instru- . ment in a band. Since the local orchestra was - formed and the Legion Band organized, it would do well for the • kiddies to save their pin 1 money and purchase a mouth or- - gan and learn to play. The easiest ■ to learn would be "Home, Sweet Home." ! A TASK FOR LOCAL CHEMISTRY WIZARDS Now Carl and Earl, a week or ago we told how you were ber coming great chemists and about t your experience in making several , bottles of chlorine gas.
