ATLANTIC CITY. July 10. 1909.
The splendid Boarth witch the weather
man vouched to Atlantic City put every
body In a good fui1nor for the rest of the
week To be sure. the day after 1t rain
ed but that only chimed in with the
usual after the Fourth" feeling. and
the general average of the weather
for the week has been sunny The fire.
works have stopped. but the skylarks on
the beach have not. The continual cffer-
vescence of fun down by the surf shows
that the celebration of Independence day
did not sufficiently work OFF all the high
spirits. The yacht clubs have been very
busy over the Fourth, g1aintaining an
open house and holding r:A.es. The great
number OF automobile parties are a fea-
flire of this years July season. An auto
mobile seems to whizz By every secDud Of
the day. All were gayIy decorated with
f,es. and although the pace at which
thtV whiZz through the long thorough
far,S OF Atlantic and Pacific avenues
was simply reprehensible and resulted In
several accidents still their arrival add
ed to the excitement and gayety of indie
pendence day. Many people who come
down ior ''over the Fourth" are finding
the sh,re too attractive to leave, and
doubtless August will fnd some of them
waiting to see the opening of the great
midsummer season.
At night the Boardwalk looks like
foreign arrival. for the nights have
seen so c,Ol that the girls; have to pull
UP the ensIpouding hood at. ached to their
rose, pink auld lavender bro adcloth capes.
which give Them the appearance OF wear
ing masquer;Sde domtnos.
Atlantic CitV escaped an Y very serious
accidents on N:count OF fireworks. more
speed of the automobile pc ople. who drove
through the town absolutely regardless
Of the fact tha4. there were some 100000
extra people in 1t and the streets very
congested.
There is no city in the world which
should be more iiaterestsd In the steadily
growing ag1tation for az. safe and nd sane an
great problem of the rare of thousands
and thousands Of vis1 tors from every
part OF the United State g. many Of whom
come on here in the spirit OF don't care"
and reckless freedom from home con-
ventions.
Atlantic City is the great summer play
ground and it cannot afford to turn It
self into solemn. rig i'd and unattrac-
tive place, but peoples ideas as to what
makes an attractive Fourth of July are
changing. .... .-
One Of the most suggestive movements
is that of having historical pageants.
which will allow of all the small folks
participating. and the fun Of dressing
up and marching 70 the music of good
bands would amply repay any American
youngster for the lack OF the senaeless
exploding of sunpowder.
