and whatnot all for very moderate
price.
Rain spoiled the Fourth for the
Atlantic City. Setting in Wednesday
morning it didn't slacken until Thurs

excellent and undoubtedly the hotels
and stores will find that they will make
up for bad times.

Mabel Dales literally received the
bird just before leaving for the con-
vention. Hearing "Cheep, cheep" in
her dining room and being unable to

what it takes. While talking in front
Of the Jefferson the other day, a lady
driver came right up on the sidewalk
to send him sprawling. Unhurt, even
without his dignity ruffled, he excused
the lady and went right on talking.

| Probably the greatest attraction
here is the Old Gold sign which gives
a continuous vaudeville performance
in electric lights. 1t is pretty good
show and must last close to forty-five
minutes. The cigarettes, by the way
recently signed with the union.
