VETERAN LIFE GUARD URGES
"COPETTES"TO DO MENDING
ite McCullough, Finding Difficulty in Repairing His Uniform,
- Hopes Atlantic City's Mayor Will Appoint Young Ones
Mayor Bndcr, of Atlantic City, Isn't
exactly mire he'll put "copetles" on
the beach. If he does, he says he will
not select young plrls but mature
women.
vAbc McCullofagb, the oldest life
guard in pdlnt of service on the eight'
mile stretch of sen and sand, hopes that
ho will put on some kind anil soon.
Isot only, does Abe -hone Xorterday
, he Rat high up on tho life stand at Hie
foot" of North Carolina avenue and
openly sighed for their coming. To be
brief and frank nbqut the matter, Abo
ws doing his weekly mending and
when the girls are put on duty he hopes
they will do it for him.
"Now I figur.e," said Abe. squinting
a sun-bronzed face up to the blue sky
as be poked a piece of strlngdnrough n
darrifng needle. "If the girls' arc the
right sort they'll want to do it for me.
Then In return, when they find a fresh
young subject oh the beach who doesn't
want ,to obey they can march him right
up here and I'll attend to him. Say,
f oughta darn this, I suppose, but don't
think I will. Guess I'll pull it to
gether." The garment being operated on wns
a pair of blue trunks. Beside Abe was
what he called bis knitting box, where
he could find pipe, matches or thread.
For his audience he had Sol O'Donnell
and Charles Murray, other guardians
of the surf, who marveled at bis-cunning.
.
This fancy work Isn't o sea
worthy," he remarked, biting off his
thread. "But you ought to see somo I
do. Look nt this." He lifted up a
sweater and displayed a brigdt red darn
In lesser red jersey. "Pretty neat
that, eh?"
'Abe. It might be remarked, Is vet
eran lifeguard only In years of service.
He has pullrd In a thousand rccklesa
folks out of the sea, but his hair Is still
blond and curly and he does ventur6
to hope the Mayor will decide to' put
yoifng girls on.

A GREATER VALUE
AT A NEW PRICE
With a price reduction of $650
you can now purchase the new
Stutz, positively the best car this
organization of motor car special
ists has ever produced at any price.
"I have always wanted a Stutz"
is the tribute paid by hundreds of
motoring enthusiasts. And with the
reduction of the Roadster and Bear
cat models from $3900 to $3250, the
Four and Six Passenger models
from $4000 to $3350, these fine auto
mobiles are within your reasonable
reach.
The new Stutz is a combination
of the proven experiences of build
ing motor cars for years, plus extra
ordinary comfort and ease of opera
tion. Even present Stutz owners
will form a new realization of the
Stutz after a few minutes in this new
Stutz car.
It is on the road that the sturdy
Stutz shows its supremacy. Because
it is built right many times more
durable and serviceable than most
cars Stutz drivers" experience a jus
tified feeling of safety, when neces
sity demands unusual speed and
power. The low center of gravity
insures dogged tenacity in clinging
to rough roads and on curves.
Flexible springs, deeper seats
and the most luxurious upholstery
give the Stutz a new standard of rid
ing comfort even to former Stutz
owners.
The multiple-disc clutch, easy
and flexible of control, the more con
veniently located and easily oper
ated driving controls make the
Stutz unusually easy of operation
even in dense traffic.
Exacting tests of the hand work
of expert workmen in one of the
world's most completely equipped
factories give added assurance of
satisfaction and service in the new
Stutz.
Every Stutz dealer has a new
standard of comparison of all high
class cars for you based on the
wonderful new Stutz car at $3250
and $3350. L..isaaiA.ftajt
