A Great Population
We are naturally very much inter-
ested in the New Jersey Seashore re-
sorts and are ever seeking their well
fare and constantly endeavoring to in
crease the number Of people who an
nually visit them. We are enthusiast
tic over the New Jersey Seashore as
the great vacation and recreation
rendezvous for the people of the
United States. There are over thirty
million people within twelve hours
railroad ride of the New Jersey Sea
shore, or approximately one-third o.
the total population of the United
States, and we feel that the New Jer
sery Seashore is the natural vacation
ground for these people and believe
as the years go by there will be a con
slant increase in the number who will
seek the New Jersey Seashore resort
for their vacation outings.
Consequently, we are keeping thu

COMING TO
WILDWOOD

Letter to Chairman of the Rail-
road Committee, Outlines
What to Expect.
LAUDs THE JERSEY COAST.

A letter has been sent to D. j..
Woods, Chairman of the wildwood
Board of Trade Committee, and a
similar one to Leonard H. Davis,
Chairman of the Railroad Committee
for the Young Mems Progressive
League, of Cape May City, in which
information about train service to
these resorts, sounds like a Christmas
present to Wildwood Boosters.
Other service asked for it not forth
coming. but the Wildwood folk work
ing with their Cape May allies still
feel that all they have asked for will
be granted in time.
We quote the letter yer batim, call
ing attention to the last paragraph
which is worth cutting out and FASTING
on the calendar.
Gentlemen:
Referring to your 1928 program for
additional railroad service during the
summer season; your various sugges-
tions have been given careful and ex-
haustive consideration and am pleas
ed to advise you as follows:
/. We shall be glad to operate a
train from Wildwood to Millville and
return daily, July Is to August 26
inclusive, 1928, leaving Wildwood at
800 P. M, connecting at Millville with
electrict train No. 1910, leaving Mill

We will also operate a similar train
from Millville to Wildwood, leaving

train No. 1911 from Philadelphia, due
Millville at 11.20 P. M.
2. Your suggestion for a Sunday
afternoon train, leaving ~Philadelphla
after 5 P. NJ, has been very carefully
analyzed in view of the Sunday after
noon travel over our line to Wildwood

matter we have decided that the pub

light saving time), and we will oper-
ate such an express train on Sundays
july 8 to August 26 inclusive to Wild
wood.
8. The question of operating thru
sleeping cars from Pittsburgh to Wild
wood or Cape May in connection with
the excursions from the Pittsburgh
territory to the New Jersey Seashore
has been presented to u people al
Pittsburgh and we are prepared tc
handle such through sleeping cars tc
Cane May or Wildwood, providing
there is sufficient demand for such
cars to warrant their operation.
a. The question of through service
from Baltimore and Washington tc
Cane May and Wildwood has beer
duly considered, but it is u judgment
there is not sufficient business to JUS
tifv the operation of an additional
train, and the connections are such
that will not permit US to operate
through cars advantageously.
5. We regret we cannot see our way
clear to inaugurate the proposed
"South Jersey Flyer" a through daily
train from New York to Cape May
and Wildwood.
6. We trust you will assist us II

This is the new booster design adopted by Wildwood
using the SLOGAN "Wildwood Welcomes the World" which
first appeared in an advertising booklet issued by the Baker
Brothers in the earlier days of the resort. The slogan COM
bined with the design was the idea of the Lions Club, of
Wildwood, and is now being sent out on thousands OF letters,
on small stickers and is otherwise being used in the adver-

BOOSTER BANQUET
OFF WITH BANG

The Second Annual Booster Banquet
special got away from Wildwood at
four o'clock this afternoon with a
merry throng of Wildwood boosters
aboard and many sad faced folk left
behind. Those who couldn't "make it"
sent their thoughts along with those
more fortunate.
Photographers were on the job
early both at Wildwood and at Broad
street station when the special pull
ed in. The Fox Film Corporation met
the Wildwooders at the Philadelphia
end and we shall soon see the crowd
and the Yellow taxis flash before us
on the screen as we repose comfort
ably in Hunts Theatres and complain
of the thin upholstery of the seats.
From Broad street station the long
line of taxis proceeded to the Bel
levue Stratford to wait until the time
for the return trip back to the await
ing train.
In the car and taxi windows big
placards announced what it was all
