L L0 departure VI d fargo pOTtiOu VI Tic
midsummer crowd last week did not seem
to make much difference in the appear
ance Of things in Atlantic City. There
| was about one day in the week when the
tired chair pusher dozed over the arm OF
his roller chair and the ubiquitous bus
man dropped into cat-naps with his leg
over the dashboard of the well known At
lantio City bus; one day only for the ele-
vator boy to gossip with the bell boy. and
! then down came another avalanche of
people in attendance at the conventions OF
the Elks, the municipal electricians. the
! knights Templar, the Shriners and the
Tall Cedars Of Lebanon.
The Elks had a perfect day Tor their
athletic events and a huge clam bake, and
the water at the inlet was just right for
sailing.
The city was much enlivened by the pa
rade Of the Shriners, whose Turkish cos
tunes of yellow coats and green trou-
sers and red coats with blue trousers and
gay caps made a bright showing, and the
knights Templar with their white plumes
added another feature to the big Masonic
week at Atlantic City.
AT night the many Masonic emblems
displayed over the street burst forth In
electric lights and added to Atlantic Citys
already generous night illumination. All
the visiting organizations are enjoying
the shore life and the many entertain
ments provided for them.
Atlantic City's somewhat sensational
preacher, the Rev. Sidney Goodman OF the
Church OF the Ascension, Will be remem-
bered to many as the rector who start
ed the Mems Church, where smokers
were held. and men could go In their
shirt sleeves and smoke while the SER
/ mon was going on. Mr.. Goodman Is now
planning to next year inaugurate roof
garden church as an adjunct to his new
Mems Church on Ohio avenue. It is to be
a two-story brick building. in the rear of
the cottage now on the church land on
Ohio avenue. and services during the hot
weather will be held on the roof Mr..
Goodman says. 1--WE are getting back to
the old custom Of when people went to
the roof to say their prayers, as we read
about in the old times in the old coun-
tries. People then used to go up to the
roof to say their prayers. and why should
not we. and what is more cool and pleas
ant than for men to sit in the open air
during the services?
Another movement that goes to show
that Atlantic City takes an active interest
in the welfare Of its people and is on the
list Of the most progressive cities is that
Saturday night the hall at the corner of
Atlantic and Indiana avenues was opened
to receive all who are interested In wom-
an suffrage. An invitation was extended
to all who are interested in government,
economically and politically.
