While photographs Of girls are be-
Ing received by the Art Editor of
The Evening Journal the suggestion
is made that no good-looking girl
should neglect this opportunity
There should he shown that city
pride by every girl that will in
sure Wilmington being able to send
Its best for the tournament.
Here is good news for every one
interested in the Atlantic City pa
geant. The weather man says that
the indications are we will have
beautiful weather for the 9Th, 9TH
and sth of September. This is just
one of the many little points that
the Pageant Committee has to take
into consideration in appointing the
time for the celebration. There are
so many things that effect the stag
ing of a big event like the Pageant
that the layman never thinks OF.
The Director General of the Pa
geant has been in communication
with the Weather Bureau at Wash
ington and has learned some very
interesting facts from them about
the weather for the first week in
September.
This is indeed cheerful news, for
we would not like 10 think of Miss
Wilmington making the trip all the
way to Atlantic City with her spirits
keyed up to have one grand and
glorious time and then to have to
sit in the hotel all day and listen
TO rain patter on the roof OF course,
even II 1t did rain for one or two
days of the Pageant. Miss Whining
ton would not miss all of the fun
for the events of the days on which
Ii rained would be put forward to
another day. This. however. would
not be as good as having everything
run off to schedule, because events
are never as good If they are post
poned. for many OF the contestants
have to make their plans for a spe-
,ial day and can not wait for a post
ponement.
In any case Miss Wilmington need
not worry over rain, as far as the
evening entertainments are concern
I'd, for these are arranged for and
will be given rain or shine. and Miss
will have cars and roll
ng chairs at her disposal the en-
ire time OF her visit. Also the Sc
lection for Miss America will be
made under cover so that the main
feature OF the Pageant, and the one
IN which we of wilmington are most
in. will be sure to take
place. and we are sure that our most
beautiful girl will be declared Miss
America, and no matter what the
weather man may decide to do we
will have glory and honor on that
lay.
