Ventnor Trade Board Dines at Yacht Club Annual Ladiet’ Night A Brilliant Social Event for Ventnor Business Organization The Annual Ladies’ Night of the Ventnor Board of Trade which was celebrated by a Hotel-Dennis served-banquet at the Atlantic City Yacht Club, Tuesday evening, June 24th, scintillated with meaty eulogy on the growth and pos sibilities of Ventnor City delivered by Mr. William Emley, prominent realtor; Mr. Albert Moise, noted orator of the Philadelphia bar; Mr. Charles Beyer, who served as chairman of the evening owing to the absence of the president, Judge Allen B. Endicott. Mr. William Montgomery was toast master during one of the most entertaining and constructive functions ever programed by the organization. The Melody Boys’ Orchestra and quartette furnished diversion between courses with vocal solos and ensemble selections which amused the distinguished gathering following the commu nity sing led by one of the talented four. The pioneer work of the men of vision who bought up the sand dunes of Ventnor in the old days— the ones who beheld in imagina tion and idealism the beautiful skyline of Ventnor City as it now is, the veritable city beyond the rainbow was the subject of Mr. Emley’s discourse which illuminated the members upon many interesting facts relative to the growth of the Dream City of which Mr. Emley was one of the original boosters twenty years ago. He rocked the cradle of the Baby Ventnor and when the green heads made it cry he consoled her and predicted a wonderful future for the lady in spite of the fact that the aforesaid green heads have separated more so, called wise heads from fortunes than anything else in Jersey. The magnificent homes of Ventnor City—the well kept lawns with vivid rambler arbors—the con tinual improvement and growth fell from Mr. Emley’s lips with the eloquence of an artist who at least has realized a great ambition and who unspoiled by realization of one glorious dream seeks with We offer you the services of our experts free of charge.

Mr. Albert Moise who was met at the station by Mr. and Mrs. Jay Kraver who entertained him dur ing his visit to the resort, paid eloquent tribute to the speakers who preeeeded him in remarking that he always liked to come late to gather food fot thought from those who preceeded him on the program. His seemingly endless repetoire of funny stories includ ing narratives appropriate to every walk of life and every nationality was a grateful con tribution to the evening, and his impressions of Ventnor which fol lowed those of Mr. Emley in im promptu style closed with an ex travagantout sincere laudation of the woman-hood of Ventnor, our schools, water, balmy air, the beach and surf so much appreciated by those who prefered to make Vent nor their home. r ■■■■.. Resort Lacking Beau Brummels So Reports Tom Endicott After Observations in Southern Seashore Cities Atlantic City men do not wear the proper clothes. This rather startling statement comes, however, from a criterion in the matter of fashions—Tom Endicott, popular local cleaner and dyer, who declared further on returning from an extensive tour of the country, “in such re sorts as Miami and Palm Beach, Florida, the men there wear the proper clothes for residents of a rfcsort. It is only natural that pure, balmy breezes indicate an air of light-heartedness and so it is that clothes should virtually rhyme in the same meter. “Light-colored clothes should be the fashion in a resort such as Atlantic City. They bespeak of the seashore and are, without a doubt, the best advertisement the individual can give his community. ‘ If a man should wear an over coat in Miami, no matter how bad the weather should be, I can as sure yuu he would be taunted by his associates—it is the proper spirit.” And it might be added that in these days of efficient cleaning and dyeing when clothes of the light colored variety may be cleaned easily it is only poper Atlantic City residents should harken to this bit of wisdom. Summering in Ventnor Miss Sara Levy, of Wilming ton, Del., is numbered among the Ventnorites for a summer. Miss Levy is acting as hostess to How ard A. Miller, also of Wilming ton, for several days. Mr. Mil ler graduated with the highest honors from the Wilmington High School.
