PLEASANTVnLE, GATEWAY TO ATLANTIC CITY"

The Hard Surface Meadow Boulevard, which thousands
of automobiles from practically every State in the Union
and many foreign countries, traverse every summer season,
is entered at Pleasantvile. This Boulevard, maintained at
an annual expense of thousands of dollars to the county, is
approximately five miles in length, and crosses the meadow
lands that separate Pleasantville and Atlantic City.
The White Horse Pike, the main boulevard from Phila-
delphia to Atlantic City, passing through Pleasantvile, is
paved with concrete, and a Warrenite surface boulevard is
completed through Pleasantvile to Mays Landing, the two
main highways to Philadelphia.
A frst-class Hotel and several ~upto-date boarding
houses are to be found here, the rates at which are much
lower than for like accommodations in Atlantic City.

Care of Timepieces.

The intelligent housekeeper knows
the Importance of keeping her house
hold clocks in such a condition that
they will tell time accurately. This
takes not only care. but a certain
amount of clock knowledge.
The three great rules to follow, in
caring for timepieceS, are these: l.
Protect them as much as possible
?. Keep them busted. g. Wind them
regularly.
Yet these three rules DO not cover
the case entirely. For often the
housekeeper finds herself a. "A loss to
know how to move a clock, set it or
regulate 1t. The usual clocks found
in the home may be divided into two
classes-the mantel or wall clock,
which has a pendulum, and the COM
mon alarm clock, in which the move
ment is controlled by the vibrations,
as in watch. This second type will
run in any position.
This type of timepiece has q very
delicate mechanism and must be
treated with great care. Its pendu-
lum is usually suspended by a thin.
fat spring. which is easily broken
II the clock is moved from one wall
pendulum's being secured tightly to
the clock case, so that it cannot
swing. A still better way to avoid
breaking this spring in moving such
a clock Is to unhook the bob from
the pendulum rod temporarily. SO
that swinging Is impossible.
Starting the Pendulum Clock After
Moving.-After changing the position
of your clock it will be necessary to
put the clock back 'in beat" BY
this I mean making the successive
vibrations of the pendulum, or the
time between successive ticks, Of
equal length. This is done by care

pert, although some pendulum clocks
are provided with adjusting thumb
screws for this purpose, placed at
the top of the pendulum. By turning
these thumbscrews one way or the
other you can make the beats uni

Setting a Pendulum Clock.-Turn

revolutions IL necessary. till the
hour hand points to the right hour.
