Public Library Under Way

The activities of the Wildwood Civic
club toward the establishment of a
public library for the communities OF
the Five Mile Beach are already meet
ing with decided success. Many books
have been received from members and
their friends, here and elsewhere.
The first response from out of town
came from N. ~Snellenburg & Co. in
the form Of a check for a substantial
sum, while the distinction of being the
first local contributors belongs to
Messrs. Wainer & Fox. The contribu-
tons of these gentlemen consist of
three sets of historical works, each set
of over ten volumes. These books will
constitute a splendid nucleus of the
reference department of the new
library. ~

AVOID FATIGUE.
Why Keep on Going Till You Actu.
ally Drop?
YOUR REST AND RECREATION.

The Human Mechanism Needs Oiiing,
Just as Do All Machines-Ordef
Your Hours and Have Time Left For
Play as Well as Work.
Fatigue of mind and fatigue of body
are the two great causes of the house
keepers u~nhappiness, and you cannot
say that mind or body is sound if the
energy has departed.
Now, 1t does not go all at once, and
it Is your own fault Ii you do not lay
a OBTAINING hand upon it long before
the final exit. r e
First we must realize that you are a
machine which must be well oiled If 1t
is to run smoothly. OF course a ma
chine will go on running If you don't
oil it-experiment, If you dare, on your
sewing machine-but what happens?
Instead of running smoothly and
silently, 1t makes a grating. jarring
noise, and then-it stops altogether.
The woman who goes on without oil
does exactly the same. And it Is her
own fault, protest she ever so loudly.
The oil, you will understand, is any
thing which makes the wheels go
easily, and the woman who doesn't
avail herself of such is guilty of false
economy. Every day a little Oil is
needed, and two kinds are necessary,
for two sorts of machinery are in use
the structure of the body and the
mechanism of the mind. The oil for the
first is rest; for the second, recreation.
Then order is the first means to this
end.
The woman who maps out her day
gets everything done in time and has
a little over.
Efficiency is the next-eficient work
ers and efficient tools. Don't keep
a little maid about you who "makes
more work than she does" And IL you
are not up to the mark yourself make
haste and become so. There are always
free cookery lectures to be had, and
friends are usually ready to give tips,
while the papers-they are just burst
ing with household wisdom.
Last, but not least, saw every penny
toward buying labor saving appliances.
A carpet sweeper. knife cleaner and
sewing machine will cover their cost
in a few months, while rugs instead
of carpets will save hours Of work.
Lnoleum on the kitchen foor-no need
to sing its praises.
And so on, and SO on-convenience
makes labor light and Is a real saving.
Thus, working by order, efficiency
and time, there is no worry, for every
thing goes smoothly; there are no mis-
cries, for everybody has recreation.
and there are no breakdowns, for the
worker is fit foc her work.

out boys and girls for pupils and a few
men and women for teachers, With
crayons and paints they will color
these nicely and fasten them to
empty spools with fat sticks so that
they will stand upright The picture
is first pasted to the stick and the
stick is wedged into the hole in the
center Of the spool. In this way the
figures Will stand or sit on the spool.

Interesting Hearing
in the Mayors Court

sylvania railroad station, stated that
he had seen Topham accost arrivals
carrying suit cases and women with
babes 10 arms and that his name was
Extensively persistent. L.. h. Boyer,
proprietor of the Hotel Fenwick, testi-
fed that he had seen defendant ap-
proach people and lay his hand upon
their arms while presenting his line Of
argument. A. N. Gill, of Altoona, wilt
ness for the defense stated that he ar
rived at Wild wood, July Z. He saw
Topham standing near the railroad
station who approached him and po-
litely asked il he had hotel accommoda-
tions, then presented the good points of
the Plaza, which impressed him and
he walked with Topham to the Plaza
and has been a satisfied guest there.
Mrs. Bertha Swerger, of Philadelphia,
stated for the defense that she had been
solicited by Topham on her arrival at
Wildwood and that when she told him
she had reservations at the Plaza, he
had nothing further to say. Mrs. Hen
rietta Edica, of Philadelphia, also q
guest at the Plaza, said she was courte-
ously approached by the defendant on
her arrival. She to had made previ-
GUS reservations. Arthur Strohner, of
Philadelphia, stopping at the Plaza,
considered that Topham was courteous
in his name of approach.
Frederick w. Topham, of Philadel-
phia, the defendant, was called to the
stand. He denied that he was dis
courteous or aggressive In his manner
of soliciting and that he never grabbed
suit cases, as he was in bad health and
physically unable to carry them and
that il he could he would not do 30 be-
cause he considered it was undignified.
The defendant stated that Mrs. Miller
paid him a weekly salary of eighteen
dollars and board. He said he had
gotten about twenty-five guests for the
Plaza In two days; these were his best
days. He claimed that he never gave
out cards only when people asked for
them and that he did not forcibly take
hold of the prospects arms. He en-
phatically denied that previous to bis
arrest he had been warned by Chief OF
Police Smith not to solicit. AT this
point Clerk Whitesell consulted with
the mayor and City Solicitor Hand and
was rebuked by counsel Pancoast.
Witnesses in rebuttal were about to be
called when Lawyer, Pancoast raised
the question as to whether the proceed
ings had been brought under the state
statute or a city ordinance; the mayor
replied by saying: 81 tried this man
under the city ordinance that prohibits
the distribution of cards upon the
streets.n City Solicitor Hand appar-
emily was surprised to- know that the
case had evdf been before the mayor be-
fore. Witnesses in rebuttal were not
called, as Mayor Smith dismissed the
case, RENTED the fine and warned Top
ham to discontinue his solicitation on
the public streets.

When baking oatmeal cookies call
ing for raw rolled oats, either with or
without nuts or raisins, if the rolled
oats are run through a meat grinder
(using the nut plate) the favor of the
cookies Is greatly improved and they
bake evenly. When using raisins and
nuts mix with oats and then grind all
together and put with your other In
gradients.
