CAN TELL COMING WEATHER
Almost Universal Belief That Tabby
Has Foreknowledoe Of Any
Approaching Changes.

."Cats have the reputation" says
Dunwoody, according to the Detroit
News, "Of being especially weather
wise, an old notion which has given
rise to a most extensive folklore. n
is almost universally believed that
good weather may be expected when
the cat washes herself, but bad when
she ticks her coat against the grain,
or washes herself over the ears, or
sits with her tail TO the fire.
"As, too. the cat is supposed not
only to have knowledge of the state
Of the weather, but a certain share in
the arrangement Of 1t, 1t is consid-
cred by sailors most unwise TO pro-
woke a cat. Hence they do not much
like TO have a cat on board at all, and
when one happens to be more frisky
than usual they quote a saying that
the cat has q gale of wind in her tall.
A charm often resorted TO for rails
ing storm is to throw a cat over
board; but, according TO the Hunga
rian prOverb, as a cat does not die
in the water, its paws disturb the
surface-hence the flaws on the sur
face Of the water are called cats
paws In the same way, also, large
furry in the water is called a cats
skin; and In some parts Of England
a popular name for the stormy north
west wind is the cats nose"

EXCELLENT MOTTO TO ADOPT
Sure You're Right, Then Go
Ahead" Always Good.

David Crockett was the author Of
the famous motto, BE sure you are
right, then go ahead" 1t is said to
have first appeared in print in Crock
ett's Autobiography" published in
1S34-appearing on the title page in
the following form, says the Detroit
News:
Il leave this rule for others when I'm
dead
Be always sure you're risht-then go
ahead"
The statement has been made that
Crockett wrote this highly entertain
ing history Of his own life
full Of blunders In grammar and mis-
spelled words" although 1t had been
revised and corrected by his more
scholarly friends, "but the Britannica
speaks Of 1t as a so-called autobi-
ography, which he very probably die
tated or at least authorized published
in 1884. A work purporting to be a
continuation Of this autobiography
and entitled Colonel Crockett's Ex-
ploits and Adventures in Texas is un-
doubtedly spurious"
John Bartlett, In his Familiar Quo
tations," describes BE sure you are
right, then go ahead" as "tbA ito
Of David Crockett in tn" War Of 1872"

Wns@@ Mammoths Roamed the Land.
Mastodons and woolly mammoths
were once as thick in New York as
bison were on the western plains a
century ago, according to DR.. Sherman
c. Bishop, zoologist Of the state mu-
scum. Although the mammoths were
more closely related to the elephants,
the only surviving members Of the fam
lily, they were the first to become ex-
tinct and probably passed off the scene
while the mastodons were still thriv-
ing. Skeletons OF mastodons, more or
less complete and some of them suit
able for museum mounting, have been
found in about 100 localities In the
state, the last one at Temple hill.
Orange county, in 1921. The Arst was
found in Columbia county, not far
from Albany, in 1705. These huge NAM
mails are believed to have fiourished
about the end of the last glacial period
some 10000 years ago. Their skels-
tons are found generally In the marsh
lands Of those early days.

Many people are looking forward to
this evenings Novelty Dance to be
given by st. AIMS c. G. in their au-
ditorium. The music will be furnished

that three novelty numbers will be in

admission. There will be II dance
numbers on the program and for those
who don't care to dance seats will be
arranged so that they can enjoy the

BELLEPLAIN WANTS ATTENTION
FROM THE BOARD OF FREE
HOLDERS

Perhaps our Board of Chosen Free
holders have not observed the 'impor-
lance attached to the fact that IL
best road from Belleplain to the head
of the rived is in a deplorable condi-
ton. Conspicuous by their absence
are loads upon loads of gravel and in
Vulnerable tons of cinders, which have
not been spread upon it's dilapidated
surface. The road could be made
level, but it still continues to slope in
about seven different directions. With
out a doubt, it is a troublesome factor
to those poor unfortunates who must
laboriously travel this way. We sym
pathize with them from the bottom of
our hearts-needless to say, they are
to be pitied. Mark Twain was a stu
dent of human nature and once upon
a time he was heard to say: eff a man
does not blow his wv horn it will not
be blown" So we Belleplainers are
blowing our horns about u road,
and sincerely hope the Honorable
Board will hear them down in Cape
May Court House and eventually
Brighten the Corner" in our COM
munity by giving the necessary and
much needed attention to the road
above mentioned.

"LIFE" AND CHIEF STRONG WOLF
AGREE

Attire hearing Chief Strong VOLTS
talk at the Board of Trade meeting last
week we came across the following
article printed in Life" magazine, and
the idea set forth in this article and
in the Chiefs talk correspond so nearly
that n could almost imagine Strong
Wolf as the writer. The article reads:
Who Killed Last American?
81" said the Budget. 81 did it with
my financial wheedle. ! was the one
who killed the last American"
"'Twas l." said the Bolshevist. 81
killed the last American. I permeated
his social structure with my virous;
I did it with my little Trotzky."
81 was the one who killed the last
American" said immigration. with
hordes I overcame him; 1 over
whelmed him utterly and completely
I, with my steamship graft was the
one who did it,"
And all the bells tolled for the last
American, who, when they had fin
ished, gasped to himself and groaned
with his dying breath:
"'Twas 1 who did it! I let myself
be killed. And all because 1 didn't
know how to save myself"

CULTIVATE ADAPTABHITY IN CHILDREN
By Edith LOchridge Reid

A characteristic too often over
looked, or at least unemphasized in
the training of children, is that of
a~daptability. How does your child
respond to adverse conditions or new
contacts? When you take him visiting
does he make a roar because he can't
sleep in his own bed or eat with his
own spoon or ride in the front seat of
the car as he does at home? If he
responds unfavorably to new condi-
tons, then his training in conforming
to circumstances has been neglected.
A child that cannot comply with the
routine of the home in which he is a
guest can upset plans and create fric-
ton until the pleasure of the visit is
spoiled for mother and hostess; and
to prepare him so that this u~npleas-
antness may be avoided cannot be
done in the two or three days that
precede a visit.
To be sure, a child should have his
own things and should be held to a
system of conduct at home-else how
can he form any habits of regularity?
Not for a moment can this theory be
discounted. And it is very we'll to add
that small children should be left at
home as much as possible and not
subjected to a change of living condi-
tions-but every mother knows that
there are exceptions to this rule. We
cannot all have nurse girls and
housekeepers, and we cannot always
stay at home; so while we are train
ing the children in good habits let us
not give them the idea that these
habits are not adjustable.
Well, how shall we do it? The fun
damental point in adjustability is I'M
~selfishness. In fact when you stop
to think of it, doesn't un~selfshness al
most always solve the problem of
friction in social and business life?
One little mother helped her chill
dren by having a guest day at home.
On this day the whole family pre-
tended they were dining some place
else. Bobbie, instead of having his
high chair, sat On two books and a
cushion as he has to do at Aunt
Ellen's when he visits there. And
Esther had to eat with a big knife and
fork and drink from a "grown-up"
glass, and there wasn't any milk so
they drank water and were very polite
about it.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1923-02-09

You get the ideal The family are
lifted out of the rut-boosted up as
it were to peek over the high board
fence to see what is in the neighbours
yard. And the change of scene is
inspiring rather than annoying.
In social life the happiest individual
and the most popular is the one COM
monty known as a good mixer, the
qualifications for which are simply
adaptability to circumstances and re-
spect for the interests and ideas of
others. So the sooner and the more
thoroughly u children cultivate these
traits the easier will everyday living
be for them and their associates, but
only by the careful, patient guidance
of the mother can these requirements
be attained.
"The grown-up men and women of
today are, in a sense, past saving. The
best work of the Republic is to save
the children" David Starr Jordan has
said. The kindergarten is a moral as
well as a mental and manual school.
If we wish to change the course of a
river it is to the source, not to the
mouth, that we direct our efforts.
Ki~ndergartens should be provided for
all of our children instead of only one
in nine. If there is none in your COM
munity ask the National Kindergarten
Association, 8 West 4Oth street, New
York, how to obtain one.

NORTH WILDWOOD NOTES

The H. Middleton family, of Cam
den, have moved into their new home
on 18th avenue, which has been re-
Gently completed by Contractor H. H.
Ottens.
Miss Mabel Shivers spent Sunday
with her mother at the Hazelhurst.
Walter Griffith, who is studying at
the University of Pennsylvania, is
home here for a short rest period fol-
lowing examinations.
Miss Marion Hunter and friend
spent Sunday at the home of her par
ents on East 18th avenue.
Mrs. Feister is spending a few days
this week in Philadelphia at the home
of relatives.
Russell Young was a Sunday Wis
itor to the city.
Mrs. Martin entertained her daughr
ter and son on Sunday at her Central
avenue home.
Mrs. Fisher, of Philadelphia, spent
a few days last week with her sister,
Miss Florence Ashoff, who has been i'll
recently at her Central avenue resi-
dence.
Building Inspector lowering is up
and out again after being confined to
his home with an attack of the grip.
Mrs. Fulmer acted as host last Sun
day to a party made up Of her niece,
Miss Knighton, a friend, Mrs. Carr
and Mr.. Dunlap.
In a recent interview Building In
spector lowering stated hat the one
difficulty he has to contend with
with builders is their persistency in
putting up structures too close to the
curb line. He said that this was es-
pecially true of contractors from out
of the city who get jobs of building
here. He suggests that before a con-
tractor or architect begins work on a
structure that they go over carefully
the building rules laid down by the
city. One building recently erected
was almost completed when attention
was called to the contractor of it's
nearness to the sidewalk. AS a result
the building had to be moved back
several feet at a great loss of time and
money to the builder.
