the season took place there on Friday
and Saturday. In addition TO golf the
club has tennis courts, bowling alleys,
rifle range and squash courts. A
motor bus makes trips from the hotels
to the club several times in the morning
and afternoon.
The prevalent idea that Lakewood Is
an, exclusive resort is only true to the
extent that there is no other like it in
this part of the country. Like all other
places II has its exclusive cottage
colony and hotels. but with fifty-eight
hotels and boarding houses. with rates
ranging from $40 week to $40 day,
it offers attractions to persons in all
walks Of life.
Climatic conditions at Lakewood al
low outdoor life to be enjoyed during
all the winter months. The air is dry
and Classed by physicians as practically
the same as at Aiken, S. c., and Area
chon, France. Horseback riding is very
popular and the bride paths lead in
every direction. For those who do not
have their own automobile or horse
there are hundreds of well trained saddle
horses and auto bus lines to points of
interest.
Hotel life at Lakewood Is ideal. All
of the larger houses give afternoon and
evening orchestral concerts and teas In
the afternoon. Dances are held almost
every night and each house has its pro-
fessional teacher from one of the large
cities.

A SBURY PARK is enjoying "A real
n winter season. The large hotels
which had the temerity to remain
open are being repaid for their ven
lures.
For years the resort labored under
the burden of a general opinion, origi-
mating twenty or more years ago, that
1t was an excursion resort with semi
religious atmosphere and boarding
houses with one bathroom. Since the
advent of the automobile the element
that had a tendency to ignore Asbury
Park entirely have been brought to real
lie through motoring in his section
that Asbury Park is far from being
what they had pictured.
They have found a modern city in
every respect, with hundreds OF private
homes costing from 10000 to $4,000
and modern hotels able to offer compe-
tition with the best in the country,
costing from 100000 to 100000, with
every available convenience.
The only thing about Asbury Park
that savors OF a religious atmosphere
Is the restriction placed upon the liquor
traffic. There is not and probably never
will be the street corner cafe, but in
time there will probably be a compro-
mise so that this feature, attractive to
a large element Of the travelling pub
lie, will be handled by the city fathers
in an amicable manner, the same as
other problems with which they have
been confronted.
For years Asbury Park was deprived
OF a Sunday train service. During
that time no train could stop to let
off passengers within one mile Of Ocean
Grove. Visitors to Asbury Park had
to leave the train at Interlaken and
drive into the resort. To-day there is
full train schedule at both stations
on Sunday.

part in the affairs Of tho city and when
we nominate or endorse candidates for

That is to give every man a chance to
speak If possible, let US leave it even
more open for the viii of the people by
having a referendum ballot in voting
for candidates.

pose is to get the best men in office
But il is impossible for all to have Of

cepting the decisions that have been
made as we were in fighting the last
three elections through to victory. we
believe in what we stand for with all
our hearts. Let US get new members
among the strangers who are coming TO
the city and do not know what the con-
ditions were in the past. They should
be members of this club. This is great
honor that has been given me by the
club and I will do my best to make you

British Drinking Less Beer
Since War Started; Spirits
Consumption Increased

London. Eng. May 15.-Great Britain
was drinking less liquor every year
when the war broke out but since the
conflict began there has been a de-
crease in the amount of beers con-
sumed and an increase in the amount
Of spirits. The rise in the sale OF
spirits has been due principally TO the
high wages in the ship building and
other industrial areas.
Eight years ago there were 197, 900
convictions for drunkenness in EuE-
land and Wales. With the population
steadily increasing in numbers. the
number Of convictions had fallen TO
1880 in the year before the war
started.
The effect Of the war on the convic-
tons is not Obtainable in figures. but
since August /, 1914. there has been a
decrease in consumption Of 1000. 900
barrels OF beer compared with the same
period Of 1913-1914, an increase OF
II 900 gallons of spirits and a decrease
OF nearly 100000 gallons Of wine.
