August 18th at Ocean Pier

August 18th at Ocean Pier
Wildwood's fourteenth annual Baby
Carnival will be held on Thursday, Au-
gust 18th, and extensive preparations
have been made for several weeks to
make the carnival eclipse those given
in former years. The baby parade
which will be held in the afternoon
has always brought large crowds to
wildwood who have been greatly
pleased with the demonstration. Much
time and money has been spent to
make the affair this season well worth
seeing. Mrs. Roland Corson, who has
been in charge of the carnival for the
past six years, is the chairman of the
carnival committee and she and her
corps of capable assistants have pre-
pared a program that will no doubt
gain the commentator of the visitors.
On Wednesday evening, August 18th,
the Queen of the carnival will be
crowned and a ball given in her honor
1T the Ocean Pier ball room. The
queen will be the young lady who has
received the highest number of votes
in the balloting contest which closes
August 18th. The queen will receive
a diamond ring and the young ladies
receiving the second and third highest
number of votes will be her attendants
and also receive gifts. A feature of
the ball will be the in~terpretative
dances by youthful dancers. All of the
young ladies who will dance, with the
exception of the Love sisters and the
