That once favorite Ocean Beach day, when the beachites prepared a big cel- ebration for the day and evening, a part of the latter being a general il lumination, camoe parade, firework | and band concert, has been amitted for ceveral years, due it s sald to the changed population at the beach in the 00d old summer time.

Several years ago & newsgatherer In New London bad the nerve to suggest to Mr. Mun- sey that he was extravagaht in the expenditures made in extensive chang: es made in the Munsey building, and the only reply was “This is my yacht!” It sure is some yacht, a whole fleet insofar|as goes the eost. The Munsédy building is easily the biggest thing in the city and now Mr. \Munsey is getting some return for the cash he sxpended and in addition has the satisfaction of having what he wanted. Mr. Munsey and the city is mutually benefitted.
