Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-09-23

The great success of the Fair was
due to the full support by public spir-
tied organizations and individuals.
More than 5000 people attended the
Fair both days, and nearly 1000 cars
were used to transport them.
The two trophies in the trap shoot
were won by Alexander Schwartz and
O.. F. Ferree, both of the Stone Harbor
Gun Club.
In baseball, Sea Isle City won from
Ocean City Red Men, score 10. Belle
plain won from Ocean View, score
1873. South Seaville P. o. S. of A.
won from Cold Spring P. o. S. of A.,
score 2-1.
The Baby Keep Well Station was
well patronized. About rs babies were
examined and 35 received ribbons and
photos for perfection in health, as per
State Department standard.
The American Legion gave great
impetus to the Fair by their many and
varied activities.
The Ford CHANGED off by the Ameri-
can Legion found it's way to Mr.. Prit-
chard's home in Erma.
In spite of the adverse conditions
for the farmers this year, there were
300 entries of fruits and vegetables, IL
stock entries, 80 household arts and
flower entries and ITS poultry entries.
Thirty race horses and 5 mules par
ticipated in the races.
The Daughters of American Revo-
luton were very successful with their
tea room and many patrons were made
happy by it, and many patrons were
disappointed because the ladies ran
out of ice cold tea and the delicious
home made cake they served.
The Guessing Contest of the T. S.
Goslin Lumber Company, of Wildwood,
was very popular and much patron
lied. Tom Goslin said the number of
nails in the jar was 1,O54 and paid his
prizes accordingly.
Ladies-First, Mrs. NJ. A. Pyott,
Wildwood, 1,053, $40; second, Miss
Dorothy Hoffner, Millville, 1850, $500.
Gentlemen-First and second, tie,
William Arkley, Steubenville, Ohio,
stopping at wildwood, and ex-Mayor
F. E. Smith, 1850, took $3.50 each.
Collins Machinery Exhibit and Roy
Fosters Hardware Exhibit were very
creditable to their owners and to the
Fair in general.
The Vocational School Exhibit did
credit to that institution and Walter
Taylor's fine truck load of fruits and
vegetables could not be surpassed.
