Only Effort Win Win Prizes

Understand that effort and pcr- - j -ulenoe alone will win in this cam- - paign and the big prizes attends ajil thereto. Hicre is no chance, 0 ; luck or "pull'" about it. The best n workers will win the biggest pri- - zes. Every safeguard possible has y been made to insure absolute faire iicks and impartiality. y Those who have entered the - campaign and not started active work as yet, are overlooking the s best opportunity of the campaign, c | Early work means fire times as :- much as the same amount of efi fort later on. Every subscription - order you get while others sleep n means just that many less to get II later on — and just a few more ors ! ilers than the others may mean the g ownership of that lovely Buick Six. It takes pep and energy to put i- campaign over and win In a i- ] iiig way. But who says that YOU " have not as much ability and nmk'bition as your neighbor? Potenti- | ally, you are a winner until you ! show that you have not the qualid ties necessary to win. You can ded i velop winning qualities if you only h ] think so. e The campaign is short— after :e . this week but five weeks remain, k j so unless you get started very- soon e the active club members will get o I so far ahead of you that it will be ; y i almost impossible for you to catch u up. Such is not the case as yet. e but every day you lose now is it ; making it doubly hard to keep M I pace with whoever the leaders may a I be. d] Positively Closes September 26 i- 1 The campaign will positively E: close on Wednesday, September 26 r. ; no matter who is ahead or behind J in the race and irrespective of how i- many subscriptions have been n turned in up to that time. The remaining days will fly rapidly, i- They will go before you know it. g With the first announcement of y club members this week the race i- is on in real earnest They are h "off at the post" and already the pace is growing hot > Who can finish victorious in the d face of keen competition? If we I- know character at ail we opine i- that no such misery as a quitter 'r will appear among those who have •- entered the Salesmanship Club. Certainly the winner of first honors will be entitled to admiration il for defeating a field, and us cerh lain I v will commendation lie due •o those who fight the battle and "Hie ie game." n: Get into the race with a shout, ic for you are off in a bunch, and MAY THE BEST CLUB MEMit BKR WIN!

Miss] ; Hawkins brought Miss Thomas to' Ocean City, and offered to give j the proceeds of the recital to the; ' Ocean City Seashore Home for Ba- : hies, an offer that was gratefully ! acceptcil by the organization, as j i Miss Thomas is an artist of rare ubility and great personal charm. But it seems that the hotel man-, 1 agement is lieing criticised for the ! kind of a luncheon served, which j ' had been advertised as a "buffet j i luncheon." .. Mr. ..Slocum .said,] "There was 110 luncheon. Wo serv- ! cd just what was ordered, and we^ want this fact publicly announc- 1 |ed." j Upon referring this matter to. ! Miss Hawkins she said "a buffet luncheon consists of a fruit punch with crackers and cakes, ami it is! frequently served at musicals and r- other high class affairs." 1- In reference to the cards— they I- were un uftcrthought, and were ine, eluded to promote the sale of the *t tickets for which the Golden Rule i- Society was in no way responsi- « hie. r- JULIA R.

Many a veteran of the field was heard to i.; remark it will be many years s hence before the record will again lie equalled, if ever. The tournament will remain hisc. toric moreover from the fact that n a second team, representing the Ocean City Fishing Club also broke .all previous records, ranking scci- ] end in the contest. ^ Rivalry ran high and the comJr i petition extremely keen. Although r. ! there was an entire absence of ir | demonstration, and the applause ! was evenly distributed, each man of ^ ' the several teams encouraged to 15 ] do his best by his rivals, in the i- j very best spirit of true sporfannnj ship, there were moments of tense excitement. As the event proil ] ceedcd its course towards tho cli8. j max, irnd a member of the victorious team toed the line, the specta- ^ I tors were held in breathless wism | pence. All realized that only a at series of breaks could prevent the A glers' from retaining the trophy ^ j for another year. "j A more formidable aggregation

Who will have the honor of be- 1 ing proclaimed and crowned Queen ] of Ocean City's Great Bay Carni- ] val ? Who will occupy the throne 1 on the royal barge ? Whom of the ] i city's beautiful maidens will re- i j ceive the homage of admiring: spectators as she rides the water ! ; triumphantly, the central figure m ] a scene of splendor and magnifi- ! cence, the equal of which has never been seen on the coast? This appears to be the question | exercising the minds of many days. Already there are in- ! ilications that there will be a long { list of beautiful young ladies asI piring for the honor and there is ; reason to anticipate the riv- | airy will become very keen. Voting for the queen of the carnival begins forthwith. It is anticipated that by the end of the week a booth will be erected at a convenient place on the Boardwalk charge of a young lady. Ballot slips may be obtained from any member of the committee,, or from te offices of the local press — The Sentinel, the Ledger, the Booster and the Beach Comber votes must be deposited in the official booth, and accompanied by ten cents for each vote. A person may register one or a thousand votes for a particular candidate for royal honors: but each vote must lie accompanied by ten cens, or will not be counted. In fact the young lady in charge of the booth will receive no votes unless accompanied by the dine. booth will he open daily, with the exception of Sunday from 10 to 1 o'clock, and from 3 to 11 o'clock. Here is an opportunity unrivalled for amorous swains to show their regard for the idol of their dreams by canvassing votes in her Every day witnesses some new added to the program of ■ events. During the afternoon in the immediate vicinity of the Germ an town Boys' Club, a series of aquatic sports will be held to Include swimming races, fancy diving and aquaplaning. There the , young lady securing the highest number of votes will be p rod aim - 1 ed queen of the carnival. The pro- • damation ceremony will be a spec tacular and dramatic scene, conducted in perfect keeping with the andent customs of royalty. Night 1 Bay will be a glimpse of fairy- : land.

PRESBYTERIAN GHDIR RENDER ROSSINI'S STABAT MATER >i SUMMER QUARTETTE WILL / BE ASSISTED BY CHORUS OF LOCAL VOICES Each season the Summer Quar--jtctte of the First Presbyterian c t! Church has made it the custom to f , present some musical work of v ' ] classical merit of an ambitious t 5 character. t Last year they gave a memor- I - 1 able rendition of excerpts from the e ( Elijah. Sunday evening, August g , 1 26th, with the assistance of an au- f ' cinented chorus, they propose to f ri render Gloachinio Rossini's immoral tal "Stabat Mater." I The performance will be given c under the direction of Bernard Po- « land, who will also sing the tenor 1 „ role, with Miss Louisa T. Corson ; as soprano, Mrs. Ida Taylor Bolte 1 : as contralto, and Paul Towner as « " bUM. - ' 4 The male augmentation to the 1 e chorus will consist of the following j well known local vocalists, Russell r H. Nnlty, IW. H. Collisson, Jr., H. Luff, Scott Adams, Clinton D. Low . den, Edwani Hogan, Walter Scott d Sherman, Dr. Chas. H. Vail and E. r M.

While remaining r. true to the traditions of the Palesi, trina School in the general format, : tr the Stabat Mater is regarded as , one of the pioneer works which inlr augurated the new school of rtwr. the tics of which Sir Edward Elga j is probably the greatest of living in exponents. The solo work in particular lends itself itself to varied interoretat; tion, giving each artist ample opId portunity to demonstrate his or U her powers of dramatic insight. The choruses are replete with

The local press will anil nounce weekly, the names of the . candidates and their prospects. - The voting doses at the hour of r i noon on September 5th. | The purposes in view by the promoters of the carnival are three of supreme importance, which Mr. IL r W. Edwards, chairman of the finance committee explains in the n following message: >' The Carnival of Sept. 8th. !~ In appealing to the business and K property interests ' of Oeean City for their financial support of the s September Bay Carnival with its '■ revival of the beautiful "Night in Venice" of years ago, it Is our de- > seire that (hey fully appreciate the i- purpose of this great dvie event ic and what it means to the resort at lare and each of them in partik eular. Last winter the Chamber of Com d meree decided that Ocean Oty t- should provide an annual event of tl a character pecularly her own r, without fear of imitation or corner petition by other resorts, an event ie that should be to us what the Atiy lantic City Pageant is to that rein sort, the Baby Parade to Asbury id Park, the Mardi Gras to New Orir leans, the Rose Carnival to Pasast dena, etc. It was agreed that the ill one great exclusive asset of the resort was our bay, and that as re this was reeonized years ago and es made the center of a series of e. water events that bid fair alone to th make Ocean Citv famous, so we 10 would exploit this again and eon1 1 tinue each year adding to and developing the idea until its fame II- should become state and even naw tion wide. ir The next point was the date. It er must carry out the thought of lengthening the season. It must w be in September and beyond LaDf bor Day. Atlantic City was carein ful to schedule its Pageant 5th, r- 6th and 7th of September. We of must not encroach- on these dates j n- for our relations are too inornate v- and friendly, and we enter telo the he spirit of that pageant with as st much enthusiasm as Atlantic City ! n- itself. We would like to have set o- the date in the following week but ee on Monday the 10th. schools open n- and many owners of boats necrotic sary for the parade could not be ht here, and as the future reputation y- of the carnival depends upon Its n- success this year, we dare not ill make the date later than Septemht ber 8th. though we are looking :h, ahead to a possible later date in he 1924. There Is the story and realizing ill that it is your carnival, that Its he purpose is three fold: Entertain e- the Public. Advertise the Resort, is. Lengthen the Season; 1* liberal re when you are approached by an n- appeal for the necessary funds, n- FINANCE COMMITTEE, ,e R. W. Edwards.
