bolts large delivery trucks happened
to be passing at the time, aud the in
jured man was taken in this to Mace's

SERVICE FOR
IN NEED

Do you know what the present day
Home Service of the American Red
Cross is?
Many people do moi know that, be-
sides completing the work for ex-sery-
ice men, especially the disabled, 1t pro-
vides the same neighborly service to
families in general that it formerly
gave families of soldiers, sailors and
marines.
Home Service covers a wide and
varied field" says Frederick G. Mum
roe, general manager Of the American
Red Cross. 'It gives aid to families
In solving such problems as budget
planning, marketing, tiding over times
of financial stress, keeping children in
school, helping crippled children, wild
owed and deserted mothers, children
backward in school and children In
conflict with the laws. 1t renders serv-
ice to the homeless and transient, to
the illiterate, to tenement jewellers. to
the unemployed, and gives friendly as
sistance and advice to foreign speak
ing groups"
In addition to helping families in
the solution of their own problems,
Home Service helps in Strengthening
the weak spots -ip the social life Of
communities. 1t Joins hands with 9TH
ers to make communities safer,
healthier and happier.
Organizing action along lines In
which the community is already inter-
ested is one Of the objects of Home
Service. 1t has established community
meetings, patriotic celebrations, pag-
eants and picnics. Rest rooms, recre-
alton facilities, play supervisors and
moving pictures have been provided.
Through Home Service other agencies
are Influenced to bring about improved
commercial amusements and better
| school facilities and 10 promote travel
ing libraries as well as TO secure coun-
ty agricultural and home demonstra-
ton agents.
If you need assistance at any time,

Resolution

Be it resolved, By the Board Of Com
missioners of the City of Wildwood, in
the county of Cape May, ia the State
of New Jersey, that in the death Of
Hon. Philip p, Baker, our esteemed
respected fellow citizen and neighbor
and a member of the famous Baker
family, this community has met with
a severe loss. Our local newspapers at
the time of his death published sn
epitome of his successful career as a
business man in the different walks Of
life which he so admirably filed, In
character be was democratic, of alb.
solute integrity, generous, and public
spirited; he won for himself the entire
confidence of all with whom he came
in contact, and was held in the highest
respect. His interests were many and
varied. In all of the positions which
he held he was always very active, and
he brought to each a deep interest and
marked ability. His acts of charity
and philanthropy were very many, but
he was SO inherently modest that these
were accomplished uuostentatiously
and with the least publicity possible.
Gifts of mind he possessed which were
quite uncommon. He thought deeply
and honestly, with a love for the truth,
and which tolerated no sham or n.y.
pocricies. His clear and straight
thinking made him a man of sound
and wise judgment in the practical
affairs OF life, and that judgment was
sought and priced by many who were
accustomed to turn to him for counsel.
In disposition he was mild aud gentle.
In heart be was humane and kindly.
His life is typical of the successful
American. He made the most of
natures gifts, and by arduous, almost
constant labor, he worked his way by
successive steps from a humble begin
ming to the position of N Of the fore
most citizens of this community, in
which he lived for a long period of
years, respected for his attachments
and his unusual personal qualities.
After a life filled with activity and
numerous creditable accomplishments,
he passed from this world to that be-
yond.
This city has lost a substantial
citizen, whose place will not be readily
filled.
Therefore, be it resol we'd, That this
Board of Commissioners wish to go on
record in loving memory of the de
ceased, who was a friend and a adviser
to all of us.
And be it further resolved, That a
copy of this resolution be spres1 upon
the minutes of this body, published in
our local papers, and mailed to the
family ofithe.deceased.
