A man can never be really
termed as a bachelor until he is
dead.

Some dogs have caused more

The pessimist thinks the word
golf means, Golden Opportunities
Lazily Forgotten.

The man who shouts the loud

has a wife who deserves all the
credit.

Slim sez, “One way to save
money is not to advertise, but it’s
a poor way to make money.”

The man who will laugh at the
earrings his wife purchased, will
don a lodge guard of an Admiral,
General and a King combined
and be in his glory.

Why is it, the person who ob
jects to having their name in the
papers usually buys about ten
or fifteen copies when it is pub

A cat is credited with nine
lives; but now that the baseball

It seems that success depends
upon the amount of noise that is
made; a riveter gets $10 a day, a
jazz player gets $15, and every
one knows what a bunch of rat

You can always tell the person
who doesn’t save his money by
hearing him tell of the wonderful
opportunities where a small in
vestment is required. The per
son who saves knows of them, but
he doesn’t waste his time telling
others, he acts.

Legion Offered -
Boat Clnb Site
Donor Wants to Foster Boating
in Margate Waters Just
Below Ventnor Line
Organization of a club to foster
boating in - local waters is being
considered by members of the
local American Legion Post' in
consequence of an offer by a Vent
nor Realtor to donate a site on
Inside Thoroughfare, Margate,
just below the Ventnor City
.boundary. > •
Under the terms of the donor
to provide sufficient land for the
erection of a suitable clubhouse
membership will not be limited to
the Legion^ although the ratio of
members is intended to always
permit of a majority of ex-service
men to assure control by ex
service men.
Informal discussion of the prop
osition has resulted in the ten
tative enrollment of nearly twenty
Legionnaires, and if a feasible
fiscal plan to provide the neces
sary funds to finance the con
struction of a building can be
evolved, the probability of formal
organization within the next six
weeks is anticipated.
In view of the fact that no con
crete action has been taken those
to whom the offer has been made
have declined to make public the
name of the donor of the land.
Local Fireman Takes Bride
Harrison Jackson, popular
member of the Ventnor City Fire
Department, and Miss Bessie
Marshall, formerly of Vineland,
were married Saturday afternoon
at the Christ Methodist Protest
ant Church by the Rev. C. D.
Sinkinson. Miss Marshall for
the past few years had been a
trained nurse at the Atlantic City
Hospital.
“Say, have you forgotten that
you owe me a hundred dollars?”
“No, not yet; give me time.”

Mission Cottages to Be
Dedicated Saturday
Formal dedication of three
recently completed cottages in
tended as temporary homes for
missionaries on furlough will
take place next Saturday after
noon at 2.30 o’clock at St. John’s
by-the-Sea Church.
.Erected at Portland_and Vent
nor Avenues and known as the
Doane Memorial as the three
I modern double apartments are to
be known, surround a sylvan
court of rare beauty. The archi
tecture is of the Italian country
house type and each building con
tains two housekeeping apart
ments. Finished in stucco with a
red brick trim the structures
present a most attractive appear
ance. Architect Vivian B.. Smith
prepared the plans.
The grounds .measure 150 feet
on Ventnor Avenue and 166 feet
along -Portland Avenue. The
Janvier .cottages, built many
years ago, formerly stood on the
site, having been razed about a
year ago. An entrance 45 feet
wide on Ventnor Avenue leads to
the court which is to be frans
formed into a miniature park.
Missionaries, clergymen and
local church workers will take
part in the exercises to which the
general public has been invited.
Rabbits Will Be More
Plentiful in Another Year
Ventnorites who are enthusi
asts of rabbit hunting will be
glad to learn that the New Jersey
State Fish and Game Commission
has placed orders for 9000 west
ern cotton tails to be distributed
on the neighboring gunning
grounds next fall. These rab
bits, which are the largest num
ber ever to be provided by the
state, are purchased with the ad
ditional funds raised this year by
an increase in license fees.
Wardens will begin the work
of restocking as soon as the
weather is cool enough to ship
game without harming the ani
mals’ health. No rabbits wall be
placed in the vicinity of orchards,
gardens or truck farms where the
owners object. However, most
farmers, it is stated by the Com
mission, are anxious to share in
the distribution of game. Each
county will receive an equal
amount of the rabbits.

Painted Cats a Form of
Ventnor Cruelty It Is Claimed
Mrs. A. Y. White, President of
the local S. P. C. A., in a special
communication to the Ventnor
News stated that a great many
children of this city are wanton
ly cruel to animals. Mrs. White
wrote that as the head of a hu
mane organization her attention
is constantly called to revolting
cases in which Ventnor boys have
actually poked' out the eyes of
cats with sharp instruments.
These youngsters are also alleged
to have tortured domesticated
animals by burning, striking, and
dipping them in paint.
Mrs.. White believes that par
ents should instill in their chil
dren a kindness towards‘animals
and that when this is accom
plished there will be less dis
honesty, crime and intemperance
in the land. The following is an
excerpt from her communication:
Humaneness cannot be taught
in a month or two, but when it
is made a part of the child’s edu
cation, when it becomes part of
his character, success is assured.
Bands of Mercy in the schools
have often ^changed the conduct
of classes and even the entire
school. Many teachers can testi
fy to this fact and that the seem
ingly vicious boy has often become
kind and thoughtful of others
through the introduction of hu
mane teaching.
“I am trying to attain my end,”
said the puppy clog, as he vainly
chased his caudal appendage
around in a circle.
