SOME PERSONAL ITEMS

Councilman and Mrs. j. Albert Har-
ris and son Lloyd returned from their
cruise to Florida last Saturday. They
Travelled about 5000 miles and visited
all the Atlantic coast cities between
here and the Land of Flowers. They
were highly pleased with their journey
and enjoyed the trip. They travelled in
the day time only and most every day
went on shore and in this way they
saw much of the country and the life
of the southern people. In their esti-
nation Savannah was the prettiest city
visited and St. Augustine, with its mar
row streets and ancient buildings, the
most interesting. They can tell some
good stories of the smaller towns visited
and their people. Mr.. Harris and his
wife both return we'll satisfied with
their island home and unite in saying
that there is no place like dear old
Wildwood. They are now deyoting
themselves to putting Edgeton Inn in
order for the season and will be open
for Decoration day.
Attorney Zeller was down Monday
evening attending to legal business.
Mr.. Zeller has just returned with his
wife and son from a visit to Connect
cut. He went on business for the New
jersey Training Schoolat Nineland and
visited Providence, Newport, Boston
and other cities. He represented an es-
tate which had a couple of million dol
lars on deposit in a San Francisco bank
at the time of the earthquake. a por-
ton of this sum was ~bequeathed to the
training school.

land on Wednesday of last week. Mr..
Baker is vice-president of the Mer-
chants National Bank. He called at
the Marine National Bank, our local
institution and complimented the
officers on the showing the bank has
made in the few years of its existence.
This was his first visit to Cape May
county in thirty-two years and he was
impressed with the resort and the char
acter of its improvementsan and predicted
a great future for Five Mile Beach.
The young miscreants who have been
maliciously breaking the ~incandescent
light bulbs on the board walk archways
of late had better cease that sort of
amusement. If caught in the act the
penalty for such an outrage would
probably be rather severe.

beer rented for the season by John n.
Reeve to Daniel Paret, ofPhiladelphia;
Robert Morris, of Philadelphia; DIR.
