Jf Oi A. A TIMELr MESSAGE BROADCASTED FROM COMMERCE CHAMBER

LETTER EVERYWHERE FAI VORABLY RECEIVED AND HIGHLY COMMENDED A timely message lias been broadcasteil from the offices of the local Chamber of Commerce, upon which some flattering comments have been heard. In the opening paragraph, Mr. Howe, the secretary, explains the origin and source of the inspire- 1 tion- The editorial, from the pen ' of J. Harold Somers and copied ' from The Tourist News, Florida, although written primarily for the ' people of St. Petersburg, might be 1 I • ' adapted, as Mr. Howe has done for Ocean City, to every resort, shore * and inland, in the country. It has 1 an universal application and deals v with the very fundamentals of ' business relations. Written in ' terse, snappy phases, the writer goes straight to the roots of the * matter ami establishes an unan- 1 swerablc blfef for a closer cominanity of interest between the entertaining people and their visitors. e We find pleasure in reprinting a copy of the letter as sent out: **i.- ,.H : »„■

following is an editorial by J. Harold Somers, taken from the Tourist News, Florida's live wire magazine With Ocean City substituted for St Petersburg. WHAT ABOUT THIS SEASON T Will Ocean City hate a successful reason ? Now, tfiat all depends on how you are going to judge sue- < cess. Is it a question of how many i more visitors are in Ocean City ■ than last year; or how loud and i long have the merchants' cash reg- i isters jingled T Or is it this: In i what frame of mind are we send- I ing the visitors back to their i homes ? That's it! I Are rre sending them home sat- ' hefted? Have we given them a little more happiness, developed in them a love for our home town? What have we done for them that < if a bit finer, bigger and better ( than last year? Have we co-op- t crated with the climate God gave , us and reflected sunshine to them c from our hearts? i If we think we have succeeded 1 by "cleaning up" or gained certain i ends at the expense of our visitors f

we have not succeeded. We are selling happiness, contentment, clean-cut pleasure in Ocean City, and you cant sell that stuff with a lust for money or thru selfish motives. You simply have to get in line and build your business on a foundation of service— satisfactory service to your patrons — The Visitors. If a visitor leaves Ocean City contented I am assured of next yean success. If every visitor < leaving thig city goes home with i Good Will emblazoned on their 1 minds there will be seventy-five 1 1 thousand walking, breathing, boost's

Ing advertisements parading the f inland cities this next winter. I tell you to judge this seasons business according to the amount of satisfactory service, unselfish cooperation, kind deed., and pleasant words that you have passed over the counter along with honesty

O. C. YACHT CLUB PREPARING FOR A BANNER SEASON f Committee of Which Alex ColviRe. Jr„ is Chairman, Planning Unique Features ' If the coming season of activi- j ties at the Ocean City Yacht Club,1 approaches anywhere near the ex-i , pectations of its genial executive. Commodore John E. Fite, it will | prove a year of unprecedented sur- , for the club. Commodore Fite recently paid a , visit to this resort, ostensibly for | the purpose of ascertaining how , work was proceeding in preparing • the club house and it appointments for the opening on Memorial Day. Pool tables and other recreational equipment are all undergong a thorough process of renovation. The committee of which Alex. Colville, Jr., is chairman, is engag- j eil in preparing the program of social activities for the year. In ! years past this organization has never lacked for ample entertain-

y ments for its members and guests. e The coming season's activities how j ® ever will far surpass all others for novelty and variety, with someth-l ing of interest to beguile each day 1 ' and hour. The last of the winter dances. i giver, under the auspices of the - club, at the Manufacturers' Club; ,• few weeks past, proved an unf qualified success. Over one hund1 red members attended, all enthusi- - antic over the splendid arrangei ments made for , their comfort, ■ both by the committee in charge, r and by the official staff of the popular club in whose home the . dance was held. , A REAL SURPRISE ' • Mrs. John Werkneiser, who is I employed at the popular hostelry, ' the Biscayne Hotel, celebrated a • dual anniversary during the past 1 week, that of her first appearance on this earth, and that of her marriage. Her friends decided to help I honor the auspicious occasion , i tendering to her a pleasant sur- , i prise party. s The evening was spent in a most

, cntertairiing manner, with the , usual diversions befitting the oci easion. l The guests included: Mrs. Maude t Buscom, Miss Virginia Lomoreaux, i Mrs. Walter Partenheimer, Miss - Regina Kennedy, Mrs. John Kelley s and Mr. and Mrs. Blundin. Mr. and Mrs. Hanford of Vine- ' t land, spent the week end at their i r cottage in this resort. Well known i I among summer residents, Mr. and 1 Hanford have recently re- ' turned from Florida, where they t . spent the winter. *

Oao$ porp pur Khoola end oollegee mm to oaaaMjeontnt time. School is an qewtshop. It u where we get the tools with which to do our part of the world "a work. Graduation day is not a tim« to recall achievemcnts bnt to plan them. It is not s day for reflection, but of prediction, a time for looking forward, not backward. Education ia the search for truth. Truth is is a manifestation of the truth of nature. Because it ia true to the laws of nature it does -not remain a bud but unfolds into the flower. The seed laid in the clod finds its way to ;thc light 'light is truth. Be a light seeker. Truth ia . < ahead, never behind. Keep pursuing it cannot serve truth and re pone. We seek education that we may know how to progress, to serve; that in this world we may be live seed and not dead seed. It ia not what you know that gives you recognition in the world, but what you know howto do. Commencement is not accounting time — it Is investment time. The intellectual miser is of no more use in the world than the money miser. The world never honors an idle intellect. There is but one nobility that lasts and that is the nobility of useful-

new. * He who cannot USE that whlc^ he baa ac- t auired from his text books has labofed in vain for his grades. We are measured by what wo i can GIVE, not by what wo can GET. r Education ia wasted time anjj effort unless it i F inspires us to test our strength rather than our weakness, to dare the impoesiblo rather than complacently follow the line of least resistance, j The world has but little need of the man who | s can "do almost anything." But it has great s use for the man who can DO SOMETHING. Education, once looked upon as a luxury, is » now regarded as a necessity. Once its influence jj was oontemplative, now it is eontributive. a In the dark Bges people belonged to kings. r When the light of education spread, kings be- r longed to the people. Education emancipates. It ia the ivancc I guard of democracy. It demands that n., rights - of the many prevail above the rights of the few. 1 It is altruistic, not individualistic. * If you are truly educated you arc a friend of the masses. That is educated patriotism. i Education "is ft movement outward, not in- ' ward. No day on the school calendar is so well named us Commencement. It is the beginning of work, not the end; it. is the binding to duty, not the l clea.se from it.
