ATLANTIC CITY
The Boardwalk Has It's First
Electric Rolling Chair.

AnpIving electricity to the Boardwalk
rolling chairs seems to be the latest out
let for the twentieth century electrical
engineer. A young couple who had been
wintering at Palm Beach introduced the
novelty to the Atlantic city Wooden way
recentIv and the novelty has attracted
attention. The new chair does not per-
spire and make one feel sad on warm
day. and it's breath smells only OF eX-
hailed electricity--and that is an improve
mont upon certain motors" heretofore
in vogue down here by the ttmbling
waves.
A beautiful and touching marine cere-
mony was held off the end of Young
Million Dollar Pier Tuesday at high noon
when the John Jacob Astor Camp Oh
Spanish War Veterans placed wreath
In memory of Colonel Astor upon the
Atlantic's pillows. 1t was the day that
marked the passing Of a year since the
Titanic horror, and the veterans met u
honor the memory of the man VINO hau
bravely acquiesccd in 'women frst.
The service opened with prayer oy 'he
chaplain and was followed by explanatory
remarks by the chairman of the memorid'
committee. Then came the Grafton or the
day. which was followed Immediately pS
the casting of the floral wreath upon 'n'
waters. The assembled veterans then
united in singing Nearer, MY Co., u
Thee" after which three volleys "er'
fired above the waves by the ! ui "'
tachment. The service concluded "hei
taps" were sounded.
The new and much talked about hit%'
Carlton Hotel is not to be feature o'
Atlantic Citys skyline, at least i'll '"'
Immediate future, If current reports ar
we'll founded. The site wherein the ne"
hostlery was to have been built has peer
leased to the promoters Of an immense
aerodrome An aerodrome is, in thes'
modern days of the photo-play' ia' b
outdoor arena where moving pictures a.
exhibited. and It is To this purpose tha'
the famous site Of the old-time Nifdsoi

place will seat i've thousand persons
/ The Boardwalk is on the qui vive, aho
with reason, for the announcement mas
gone forth that one hundred young anu
winning maidens from girls seminary
