SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE
Large Crowds and Excellent
Fishing Contribute Towards
Making the Most Prosper
BUS Season In History

Five Mile Beach is certainly a favored
place in weather; while inland and
even some seashore places have been
visited by violent thunder storms and
gales u neighborhood has Teen spared.
This summer has surely been an enjoy
able one; comparatively few of the pests
of the insect world, with cooling breezes
and bright sunshine, it is no wonder
that great numbers of visitors come to
this spot, and their only regret is that
their stay is not longer. Now the days
are coming when a s~ojourn here is spe-
cially delightful, both as to fishing and
strolling along the beach and roads and
into the woods. Many have expressed
themselves that they will come in Sep
tember every time that they a spare
a day or more and enjoy this beautiful
shore.
The yacht Barbara with a goodly
number of passengers was unfortunate
in being prevented from taking them
fishing by being stuck near the bar.
Life Saving Captain Ludlam and his
men promptly came to the rescue and
brought the passengers to dry land,
and when the tide was favorable the
vessel soon was able to float without
any special damage. Several boats
had trouble, but were soon relieved.
The Ocean City towed one into the
landing at Grassy Sound.
The Theo. F. Lore had a mishap last
week in striking M of the broken SUBJ
merged poles of a fishing pound. One
of the fianges of her propeller wheel
was bent and other damage caused, but
she was promptly repaired and on
Sunday took out a goodly number of
visitors. These dangerous distractions
should be removed.

Automobiles are frequently seen on
the roads of Five Mile Beach. An au-
tomobilist seeing a man at work with
a moving machine drove his vehicle
close up to him. "How are you, +" says
he. "Hard at work" says the mower.
"What do you call that machine there?"
''That,u said he, automobile" "What
do you call your machine?" "That,"
said the other, "oughtomow hay, but
it don't worth a cent"

The number of visitors last Sunday
broke the record, exceeding even the
number of the previous Sunday. The
day was an ideal one, bright and breezy,
and it did not take long to fill every
boat at the landing, and the results of
the catches of fish were certainly highly
satisfactory. No II expected on Sat
urday that the next day would turn out
SO favorably to outdoor sport and en-
joyment. Everywhere parties were seen
on the move. About 2300 was the num-
Der that came on the excursion trains.
Did you ever enjoy the sight OF the ar
rival of an excursion train at Anglesea
and see the men with their baskets and
packages leaping from the cars and
racing for the boats, fearing that they
might not arrive in time to be taken
aboard. What a moving picture.

The rush of Sunday visitors to this
resort was enormous. AS the speclal
trains arrived anglers jumped OIL and
ran several blocks to the pier to be the
first on the boats. Many OF them
jumped fences and crossed lots Ill order
to get on the first outgoing boat. 1t is
estimated that $500 sportsmen spent
the day in fishing and sailing and
angling from the pier.
