ATLANTIC CITY. n. j.. July %. 1911.
Moonlight sailing parties are the rage
at this season in Atlantic City. and
nightly great numbers of yachts sail out
from the Inlet and Longport laden with
happy humanity. Many visitors bring
musical instruments, and the tinkle of
the mandolin or thump-thump OF the
banjo can be heard for long distances
across the moonlit waves.
Words of wisdom Are often found in
unlooked-for places. The saloon men OF
Atlantic City have contracted the habit
of placarding terse and timely bits OF
philosophy behind their back bars. One
such runs: 1.-The man who makes one
success is tempted to let it go at that
and depend upon the applause for future
rations. BY that formula dead ones are
compounded If at first you do sue
ceed-forget it. Tackle what some bet
ter man than you failed at. If you have
gotten into class A keep fit. Never for
get you are the making OF a fine has
been" The authors name was in small
letters and the man asked the barkeep.
That functionary peered closely at the
placard and answered: "Soak-ra-tus."
Anglers are meeting with so much
luck during the present season that a
number of recent visitors have made ar
engagements to have their catches salted
down and shipped inland to their homes
for winter breakfasts. Not In years have
so many fish been caught. Strings Of
fifty, seventy-five and a hundred and
more are everyday occurrences and the
yachts running out from the Inlet and
from Longport are crowded daily with
men and women from everywhere who
are taking advantage of the best fishing
in years.
