Educational Meeting Al Court
House

On Saturday last one of the most In
structive educational meetings ever
held in Cape May County convened
in the Court House at the county seat
with DR.. Abbott, of Tuckahoe, presid-
ing. Assistant State Superintendent
Sensor gave an address in the morn
ing on the new provisions relating to
Medical Inspection and impressed
very forcibly upon the minds of his
hearers the fact that physical educa-
ton is as much the right Of every child
as is the training of his intellect and
emotions. He showed that il is the
duty of every parent and of every tax
payer, as a matter of simple business,
to see that sickness-espeeially contag-
ion-and u~ncleanliness be combated in
the public schools. In the afternoon
Mr.. Sensor spoke on Manual Training
in the grades and laid great stress
upon the wish of the state department
of public instruction that the child
should be taught to work with its
hands.
Following Mr.. Sensor, Professor
Hayes, Manual training instructor at
Ocean City, and Supervising Principal
Meyer, of Cape May, spoke on the ex-
hibits of Manual training done in their
schools. These two schools and Holly
Beach are the only centres in the Coun-
ty where a systematic manual training
is pursued, the course In manual train
ing at Holly Beach having been APP
proved by the State Board of Educa-
ton about three weeks ago.
Five Mile Beach was represented as
follows:
Wildwood, G. H. Huppert and Lam
ming Myers; Holly Beach, Supervisor
Chalmers; North Wildwood, PrincI-
pal Schlichting and Freezing Hewitt.

The FIvino Idea.

The first nan who got the theory of
the flying machine right was nc less a
Vinci. He pictured it as heavier than
air. provided with wings and uplifted,
in spite Of its weight. by the rapid
revolutions of a propeller. Leonardo
had an idea that the propeller might
be turned by clockwork or by setting
a number of laboring men to turn a
handle. but in that respect he was mis-
taken.-Pan Mali Gazette.

Amid the lace bargains In one of the
large department stores the other day
q shopper e~ngrossed in thought set her
little japanese spaniel on the counter.
One of the salesgirls. not seeing the
little dog. threw a remnant of reduced
lace over him and entirely submerged
him. When the woman went to look
for her pet be vas not to be found, but
several shrill yelps. accompanied by an.
%upheaval of the lace, betrayed his pres
ence. He was quickly rescued from
his predicament, and the woman,
showering kisses upon his moist, up
turned nose. said, did they cover
mammals precious with cheap fifty
cent lace?"
The salesgirl, who evidently had cul-
tivated diplomacy, assured the dogs
mistress that the lace had been re-
duced from 81 to 80 cents. and the wo-

Paying Tax Bills

There is an old saying about being
just before being generous. One should
pay his debts before making gifts.
There are many Camden property
owners whose ready cash at this time
of the year has to be devoted to the
payment of taxes and whose Christ
mas giving is thereby curtailed. A
frank explanation to relatives and
friends should dispel any suspicion of
Discrimination to respond to the Christ
mas spirit by the bestowal of gifts.
The heavy payments of taxes in the
last days before the delinquency limit
was reached-the total amount receiv-
ed being consid erably in excess of
any former years. record-shows that
property owners have the wherewithal
to extinguish their debt to the city and
insures a considerable balance in the
nifty treasury for some months to come.
II the comparatively few delinquents
will weigh the matter or imnfediate
payment in their minds, they must in
evitabiy come to the conclusion that
they alone will be the losers by delay
ing payment of taxes, the city being
the gamer through the accumulation
of interest and costs. Prompt pay
ment of taxes shows good business
judgment.-Cdmden Post Telegram.

DREAM INSPIRATION.
intellectual Achievements Born of
Visions In Sleep.


Visions In Sleep.
1t is we'll known. says H.. Addington
Bruce in Success Magazine, that
dreams have stimulated men to re-
markable intellectual achievements
and have even supplied the material
for these achievements. Thus Cole
ridge composed "Kublai Khan" in a
dream. Tartini got his Devils So
nata'' from a dream In which the devil
appeared and challenged him TO a mu-
steal competition. 1t was a dream that
gave voltaire the first canto of his
"Henriade." and Dante's "Divina Com
media is likewise said to have been
inspired by a dream.
Many novelists on their W admis-
sion have obtained the plots for some
of their best works from materials
provided in dreams. A particularly
impressive instance is that of Robert
Louis Stevenson, whose "Chapter on
Dreams in his book Across the
Plains should be read by all who
would learn what dreams can do for a
man intellectually. The solution of
battling mathematical problems. the
ideas necessary to complete some In
vention. have been supplied by dreams.
Occasionally the dreamer has been
known to rise in his sleep and jot
down the information thus acquired.
In such cases he usually forgets all
about the helpful dream and on awak-
ing is greatly surprised at finding the
record he has made of it. which shows
that-as with the visions so potently
influencing health-it is possible for
dreams TO aid a man in an intellectual
way without his being consciously
aware of them.

IDAHo's BEST FRUIT LAND.
Medbury VIII BE Fine Fruit Country
Says Judge White.

THAT Medbury is to become in the
near future one of the very choicest
fruit and residential esctions of all
the attractive spots in southern Ida
no there can be no doubt" is the
opinion expressed by Judge Willard
White after visit there. THE very
successful sale of acreage tracts and
Carey segregations, together with
the large number of preference Gains
sold by the original settlers since
the drawing are positive guarantees
that it's going to be a great town
without delay. The following rea-
sons demonstrate that fact:
1T is on the main line of the
Orego nShort Line. It's elevation and
surrounding country makes it the
ideal fruit country of Idaho, and it
will be to Idaho what Hood River
is to Oregon. It's water supply is
most ample, and the cry is, Give us
more land to irrigate.' The Med
bury enterprise is in the hands of
skillful, honest, progressive men of
large business experience, who are
seeing to it that the best interests
of every investor are safe guarded
and advanced. The new station OF
the Short Line, the new hotel, post
Office, bank building an da number
of stores and business blocks already
planned, several of which are already
under construction, more than con
firm that every promise made by the
promoters of the Medbury enterprise
will be realized. Some of the besi
Judges of fruit culture in our state
predict that within seven years every
acre of irrigated land within five
miles of Medbury viii be considered
cheap at Capital News.

which arose, the irrigated states per-
