STN TLANTIC CITY has become the
E4 greatest seashore resort in the
D 6world, and what has contributed
y Stewards Its sUccess as much as
anything else is its wonderful bathing
beach stretching for miles along a
shore line which is nearly level and
sloping gradually TO deep water-the
longest bathing place in the world.
Every amusement Is offered to attract
the pleasure seeker and every precau-
tion is taken to insure ease and safety
to the bather, The Atlantic City bath
ers pay a beach patrol to look ont for
this. and their beach patrol is famous
for Its efficiency and its courage has
been chiefly instrumental in creating
a feeling of safety for those who battle
with the ocean waves.
Most people give little thought TO
this patrol until they are snatched
from the Jaws Of death by these men
whose business it is during the bath
ing hour to watch like hawks for the
persons who through thoughtlessness
or bravado go out too far in the
ocean. 1t is known that the best Of
beaches have undertows and pitfalls
which even the best swimmers can
not brave.
Careful Patrol
Atlantic City has been most careful
of its patrol and those who are Of it
are appointed only after a thorough
course Of training. and then by pass
ing an examination which tests their
qualification for the most important
and dangerous work which they are

and wraps, but on the screen I am

Lack of money. however, need not

Il consider shoes and stockings the

IT have seen scores of women with
expensive and beautiful gowns who
looked like frumps because their
shoes were run down at the heels and
lacked q shine, And on the contrary
one often comes in contact with those
who gain admlration with a simple
little dress lust because they take ut
most pains in selecting suitable hose
and shoes whose perfect cut gives full

For my work on the screen I have
