The Summer at Atlantic City.
THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROADS GREAT
FACILITIES.

The prospects for brilliant summer
season at Atlantic City were never so
bright as al the present Time. The
extraordinarily liberal patronage which
1t has gained during the winter and
spring season, largely due to the mag
nificent transportation facilities maiu-
tanned by the Pennsylva mia Railroad,
is still manifestng itself in the we'll
filed hotels, which bid fair to hold
their visitors well through the early
summer season. The city by the sea
is in better condition to entertain ard
amuse lis friends than ever before.
New hotels have been built, and older
ones remodeled and enlarged. The
great ocean boulevard has heen com.
pleted, so that Atlantic City now pos
sesses the handsomest and most attrac.
tive ocean front of any seaside resort
in America. All indications point to
the largest summer season in the his
tory of the place.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany has kept well In line with the
spirit Of improvement which has per-
vaded the seashore. Its facilities for
promptly and comfortably handling
large numbers of people have been in.
creased 30 as to supply any possible
demand; the road-bed of its double line
has been improved greatly, and the
terminal facilities both at Philadelphia
and Atlantic City have been enlarged
and improved. The betterment of the
tracks will enable the management to
materially reduce the time between the
Delaware River and the sea, and the
summer schedule will present the
quickest, best equipped, safest, and
most satisfactory service of trains for
everybody ever enjoyed by the hosts
of Atlantic City's summer patrons.
The comprehensive system of excursion
tickets leading from all points on the
Pennsylvania System will be available
as In the past years, at the exception
ally low rates that have heretofore
prevailed. 1t would be well for read
ers to remember that a summer trip
that does not include Atlantic City
lacks the spice that would make 1t
memorable.
