The Wild wood newspapers are slo W.
Yes, every one of them. We think we
can prove the assertion. We offer as
proof the fact that Miss Sophie Meyer
was married several months agoand not
a line appeared in either of the three
eWspapers on the island announcing
the event. Thegroom is AT. Schrank, a
pros erous Philadelphia. Since their
marriage they have been living in
Holly Beach. Miss Meyer is the sister
of the late Fred G.. Meyer, the we'll
known baker aud Marine National
Bank director. Mr.. and Mrs. Schrank
will start for Florida next week TO
spend a portion of the winter. We
need a newspaper to give the news.
The Democrats of the island think so,
anyhow, for they have yearned for a
long time to own a newspaper, and a
report has boon current for many weeks
that they would start one or buy out
one in Wildwood. Come on, Demo-
