A Family Resort With Pleasures Aplenty
Not far from Philadelphia and long noted for its healthful air laden with the odors of the pines.
Its fortunate location where Toms River meets Barnegat Bay lays it open to cooling breeze from whatever point
the wind blows. The people that live here and come here to "summer" are people of refinement and cordiality.
Its "atmosphere" is restful ?ind refreshing without the artificial gaudiness and glare of other places. Here you
have all public conveniences gas, electric lights, sewers, pure, cold artesian water, etc.
Excellent harbor for yachting with public docks open to
every one without restriction. The Island Heights Yacht Club
is the finest in Barnegat Bay.
Rowing and fishing in Toms River for the young folks;
deep water fishing in Barnegat Bay for their elders.
Delightful woodland rambles and fascinating drives.
Music by the band of the John Wanamaker Commercial
Institute, which has its usual military encampment here 'from
July to September.
Fresh vegetables, butter and eggs from nearby farms
every morning.
Bungalows, cottages and hotels which cater particularly
to families of refinement. If you're looking for a place that
will "brace you up" physically and mentally, come here, but
make your reservations now.
