ROAD ADVOCATES
MEET WEDNESDAY
Joint Chamber of Commerce to
Hold Session in City Hall to
Further Discuss Plan.
NoRTHFIELo AND LINwooo JOIN

Representatives from Mortified and
Linwood will join members of the
Absecon, Pleasantville and Somers
Point Chambers of Commerce at the
joint meeting to be held this Wednes-
day night at the City Hall, at eight
o'clock, when plans for a new boule-
ward eastward of the Shore Road,
from Absecon to Somers Point, will be
further discussed. Several commit
tees will make reports that will be OF
interest, and it is expected that a ten
tatiye survey of the proposed route
will be on hand. Such a survey vas
made some time ago and a committee
was named at the last meeting to Sc
cure the blue prints from the engineer
who made the survey.
Since the last meeting it has been
announced that owners of property in
the Launch Haven section of Somers
Point have agreed to construct a high
way from the Linwood Borough line
to the upper end of Bay venue. II
this is done it will mean another com
pleted link in the proposed bayside
highway.
With signs of additional highway
building on all sides, those advocating
the new boulevard believe their oh
ject will be accomplished in the neal
future. Atlantic City is preparing to
widen the approach to the Absecon
Boulevard, which is to be widened and
the State Highway Commission is an
ticipating another road to parallel the
White Horse Pike. All these extern
sions simply mean more traffic to fur
Their eongest the Shore road and max
ing another parallel road imperative,
The matter is fast reaching the stage
where it will be in shape to present
to the Board of Freeholders for action
in the very near future.
Another important feature to be
reekoned with is the building of the
Delaware River Bridge, which viii
bring an added number of automobiles
in this direction. Those fayoring the
new boulevard believe it is not a min
ute too soon now to consider the ques-
ton, which is sure to prove perpleX-
ing if not given attention at this time

County c. E. Union
Holds Windy Social
Scenes of Gaiety Witnessed at
Gathering of Endeavorers in
Mt. Pleasant Church.

A social, under the auspices of the
County Christian Fndeayor Union,
was held last Thursday evening, in
the social hall of Mount Pleasant
Methodist Protestant Church. Mrs.
James Price, Superintendent of the
County C. E. Social Committee, was
in charge, assisted by Miss Ida K.
Somers. 1t was designated as a windy
social.
As they entered the hall, a blast
from an electric fan greeted all. Then
each was given something to blow on,
tin horns, whistles, harmonious, ETC.,
and told to make a noise. The noise
was made all right. Pieces of crepe
paper were then handed to all the
men, and a sheet of newspaper to all
the ladies, and they were told to make
paper hats and wear them through
the evening. This was done at once,
| and there were some wonderful cos
tunes soon in evidence.
Conundrums were then given, and
| all tried their hand at guessing the
answers. Windy" games were then
| played, and a lot of fun was had by
all as they entered heartily into them.
There vas "egg foot ball" An empty
egg shell was placed in the centre OF
a table, and sides lined up. You could
not touch it with your hand, but had
to try to blow it off of your oppo-
nent's side. Clay pipes were passed
out, and a bubble blowing contest
ensued.- Paper bags being then pro-
duced, all were told to blow them up
and break them. The result sounded
like an attack of infantry. The last
game played was termed the "Whirl-
wind. A circle of chairs was placed,
and all filled except one. Then a per-
son stood in the centre, and would try
to sit in the vacant chair, the Others
trying to prevent, by moving 10 II.
1t was very amusing, as sometimes
the whole circle would be on a move.
Ice cream and cake were served III
ing the evening.
Miss Draper, of Absecon, recited.
Rev. Clarence B. Roberts, of Egg
Harbor City, President of the County
C. f. Union, gave an address, outlln-
ing the work. He also mentioned the
fact that the Annual County Conyen-
ton will be held on Friday, May nth,
in the Chelsea Presbyterian Church.
The new State Secretary, Mr.. Mon
dell, expects TO be present at that
meeting.
The social closed with the singing
of God be with you till we meet
again" and the Mizpah benedictton.
All had a very enjoyable time. The
Mt. Pleasant Church was given a vote
OF thanks for the use Of the hall. II

Linwood Club Hears
Details OF Cooking
Mrs. Edith Norman Demonstrates
Proper Method of Preparing
Fowl and Eggs.

Don't serve fried, boiled or poach-
ed eggs every morning" Mrs. Edith
Norman, home demonstration agent,
told members of the Linwood Poultry
Association at a meeting of that or
g%anization in the borough hall last
Thursday evening. Mrs. Norman then
told of the numerous ways in which
eggs can be served.
Mrs. Norman showed bow eggs can
be preserved by water glass, and the
advantage OF saving eggs in this man
ner. She said that eggs to be pre-
served must be perfectly fresh.
A pressure cooker, in which a six
pound fowl was cooked, was demon
strated, and the speaker told of the
advantages of this type of kitchen
utensil. She said that foods cooked
in the pressure cooker are better than
those cooked by other means, because
the flavor is not allowed to escape
through the steam.
Following the business meeting, and
Mrs. Norman's talk and demonstra-
ton, the chicken that had been pre-
pared in the cooker was served.

Daylight Saving Is
Effective April %
Pleasantville VIII Adopt Measure
Along With Atlantic City
And Philadelphia.

Daylight Saving Time will likely
come again this year in PleasantYille,
and the clocks will have to be set
ahead one hour on Sunday morning,
April 29th, at two o'clock, as in pre-
vious years. It is practically eompul-
sorry here because of the action OF
Philadelphia in adopting the measure
again. and with Atlantic City having
an ordinance which makes the day
light saving time effective there. The
relations of Pleasantville are so close
to those Of the larger cities that il
must follow their actions in this re
spect.
There is a possibility. however. that
the new time may not be put into
effect. In Pennsylvania there is a bill
pending before their legislature to
prohibit daylight saving time this
year. If this bill becomes a law il will
supersede the Philadelphia Councils
action. It is understood that the far
mers and railroad interests are back
ing the bill. With less than two weeks
Intervening it is of great interest to
see how the legal battle will termi-
