The report of the anon,.\ meeting of tile Woman 's Cl11b came to the Stand11.rd office too late to appear iu tbe last issue of the pnper and is iiven here.

The Annual Meetinl( of the Woman's Club was beld Monday afternoon, April 27th, the president presiding. The only paper of the afternoon was Mrs. James 0. Chork's, the uew Renuii!Bance. 'l'his

the supposed wiseraule weather, and be· cause there were no hotel accowmoda· tiono for thoae who dared a visit, nor were

' there auy attractions In the amuse· ment line. Of course the Southern and .Florida rewrts were in bloom, but iu lllay and Juue tbe weather wa• far from delightful, and for the bu•y man who deligh ts in a day or two's ontiug du5i?.g. theoe channing mouths Florida .,!Vas .. o,

could you ask. Atlantic City at the present time is

the ideal spot, ite tetnparatura averaging in the seventies, when overcoats aud heavy clothing are unnecessary. The ocean breezes are wo•t exhilarllting and bracing, and the board walk is thronged

'll'itb a happy crowd. Down at the in· let two score of craft are in cow mission for delightful pleasure cruises along the l!hore. The several big ocean piers are Rlive and entertainment is provided for Joung and old in the form of theatricals, concerts, cakewalks, bllsket ball gawe;�, dauclng and like diversions. Tbe ba­zaars on tbe board walk are all open and from the inlet to Chelsea there is an in·

cessant liveliness. Atlantic City was made famous by its warvellono hotel•, and every one of the be�&ob front hostel · ri"" numbering fully a score and accow­wodating fully 20,000 gue&ts, Is open for the reception of visitors. These hotel• cater to your every demand, and nothing is left undone w bleb will wake you hap· py and comfortable.

The euisins in every instance is equal to that of the fashlonal.Jie metropolitan ho11ses, and when yon consider the fact that Atla11tic (.)ity h but 3 b<;JQrs distant from Ne� York by the New Jersey Ceutral, it can be readily im•gined tbllt Atlantic City is the le�tding resort for May and June, as well as the seasons. The New Jersey Central has vestibuled trains with buffet Pullman's from its Liberty Street Station, New York, at 9.40 a m. and 3 40 p. m., and if you want to know about Atlantic City send a poetal to C.
