I ] on Tuesday morning. j Probably there was no person in j ' the city more widely known, and j ' more universally liked than John Trout. For a period of 21 years j he had driven passengers to their | homes from the depot, and on shop-! ping errapefs, winning the implicit 'j confidence of all who made his ! ^ aci|uaintance. Quiet and unassum- j ing in disposition, with a fund of j dry wit and humor he had a wide ! ^ circle of friends who will sadly j miss his friendly greeting from his I customary stand. !' His knowledge of Ocean City II and the county around was incx- . haustahlc, and many times had he .[ been called upon to decide some j c point of early history. For the past year the deceased | .. had enjoyed very indifferent health, j The sickness which terminated in j n death began about two months ago. ' ,f About three or four weeks past he | i. was removed to Woodbury Hospital j for treatment, although little hopes ,1 were entertained for his recovery. j •. The end came as the result of a j s | complication' of> diseases. .

HENDERSON WARBLES i "BARNEY GOOGLE" , AT KIWANIS LUNCH ((INSTANCE FORD REVEALS GREAT SKILL AS \ TROMBONIST Apparently President Staunard .possesses a uncanny faculty for 'discovering hidden talents among the members of the Kiwnnis Club. .

"Doe- -to see in Henderson an i, :if j developed vocalist of rare ability. As a penalty for some imaginary | offence, President Stannurd insisted that Mr, .Henderson sing a ' j solo. The latter obeyed orders as ;a true and faithful Kiwanian should , I and favored the company with a , i splendid rendition of the classic I i Barney Google, his confederates at . tlie stunt table joining in the rcjfrain. With the same preternatural inI I stinct for discovering hidden powJers, Dr. Stannurd proved to all and , | sundry that Albert Oldfield posr | -esse- acrobatic skill to a degree .

It transpired that a very suspi- . jcious looking jar, liearing a still i - 1 more suspicious odor had been ; I found in Kiwanian Oldfield's car. .[The honor und goodname of Kig wanLs uas therefore at stake.. . ' i In order to test the culprit xo- | briety, Dr. Stannard made him ' stand oil tlie neck of the jar, and in " j that position write his name and B | address on a card. 5 It seems that fully forty-eight 'hours had passed since Oldfield had ' j liccn at the jar. Notwithstanding ■ j so powerful were the contents 1 1 thereof, it required three attempts '• I to balance himself on tfie vessel f!liefore he succeeded in writing his 1 i name. s j A third, to many pleasant, was j 1 j led upon Constance Ford for a tom- [ I, rone solo. Mr. Ford favored the ill company with a splendid rendition - | of Nevin's famous "Rosary." Spencer B. Swan, and Joseph a '• Shelton came in luck for the at- | D j tendance prizes. The former re- '■ i ceived a splendid assortment of " j socks and the latter a fountain pen. | A special prize, presented by H. o Brice fell to the lot of Constance d Ford.

1 | For a Greater Ocean City Announcement having been already made about the chai-gc j in ownership Jnf the Ocean City Printing and Publishing Co., publishers ofAhc "Sentinel," it is fitting that the first issue of this newspaper, under the new ownership, should contain a stateI ment of it's future ..policies. This really could be summed up in one single paragraph— | "For a Greater Ocean nCity." For that is the real goal of our The new publisher who is the sole owner comes into your city with an active exjierience of sixteen years, most of that time as an executive of the Camden Daily Courier, a newspaper that has set a new high record in the progress of daily publication. We .mention this as important, because the full weight of this valued experience will be thrown -behind the "Sentinel" and correspondingly behind the movement for a "Greater Ocean City." Even without a live, progressive newspaper— the future of Ocean City is assured. It's progress cannot be halted. But the relization of our ideals in this direction, will be seen several years hi advance of what it would be normally, with the aid of an up-to-date, independent newspaper. This has been the history of cities and towns all over the country, ami we believe newspaper and people working together will accomplish like results here. j The "Sentinel" today is a weekly newspaper. 'We're glad that it has a splendid record of accomplishments of the past. We i believe' this newspaper is already a welcome visitor into at least twenty-five hundred homes. This gives us a good start. Wc want to make the "Sentinel" so complete and interesting that the j home without it will be the exception. But there are limitations to such a high ideal. This paper cannot measure up to its greatest possible usefulness without the united' support of the people. We need the hacking of the business people, all civic organizations, the city ami county administrative heads. We want every household to I feel that they need the "Sentinel" as wc need them. It's going to be a policy of mutually woking together for one great end I and that is to tell the world that this is the "Greatest Family Resort in the World." And the accomplishment of this great ambi- i tion starts right at home. We must sell Ocean City to ourselves first. And if wo do this, the world will know the rest. Of course the possibilities of our present plant and equlpment limit to an extent what we hope to accomplish. We know ! just what is needed to make the "Sentinel" a newspaper its people j will be proud of and which will command results outside. Possibly | we will have to Tic a tittle patient in providing modern equipment I with which to carry out our program. But we don't think it will I be long. We have every confidence in the progressive spirit that j prevails here. We believe the people will back up the effort for a better newspaper that starts in this office today. ' The news and editqjjal policy of the "Sentinel" will lie to present to its readers each week everything that's news. It will be clean, well-written, concise, impart'8'- politics we propose to be absolutely independent, for we believe a newspaper should ! present to its readers all sides of a question. Above all, our greatest aim will lie to lie fair. The editorial column, will of ! course, express our tfvrn individual opinion just as any other in- ' dividual justly maintains that right. But the news columns will I tic open to the public. And it will be very gratifying to receive and publish communications upon any pending questions— just so ! they're signed by the author as an evidence o fgood faith. We propose to make every page of the "Sentinel" interesting.. You will see this spirit reflected in the advertising announce- ' ments of our varied business intereMs. Oar job printing department is going to be greatly improved. We're going to make a feature of good work in quirk time. Or in other words this plant . is going to he a real service station for the right sort of publicity of every good kind. We come into Ocean City because wc see a great future. And as the "Sentinel'' realizes that goal — the city and each j and every individual interest in the city are bound to realize the beneficial effect of an old newspaper in new hands.

Equally as much attention is given to small and apparently in- ^ significant jobs, as to one running h into several thousands of dollars, ,1 for which reason Mr. Johnson has ^ won the implicit confidence of a ,s clientele growing larger day after t- d,y- ^ l_ The work for which Mr. JljUr r_ son has contracted with the fljHPn y. of Education of Wildwood, Is h» every respect the most modern and scientific known to the trade. y I: CAPE MAY LANDS i- VICTORY AGAINST : LOCAL HIGH TEAM >y '[ SELVAIGN AND MACGREGOR g[ FEATURE, TALLY RINGS AT 13 TO 7
