MEMORIAL DAY AT THE SHORE. Memorial Day, May 30, marks the opening of the Summer season at the great seashore resorts of the New Jersy Coast. Oc- curring this year on Saturday, thousands will avail themselves of the opportunity of visiting one of the forty pleasure places which line the one hundred and twenty-five miles of ocean beach. Asbury Park and Long Branch will be especially attractive on Memorial Day. The entire beach front at Asbury Park will be illuminated at night by thousands of incandescent lights. There will be fine band concerts in fhe Arcade, a high-class theatrical entertainment at the Casino; all the boat docks on Deal Lake will be opened and surf bathing will be inaugurated. Long Branch will have a special G. A. R. celebration, with a street parade in the morning and a patriotic address in the after- noon. Bicycle races will be held at Manasquan. An elaborate celebration will be held at Wildwood. There will be a big parade, a May Pole dance on the beach, the launching of the floral boat in honor of dead naval heroes, and a big basebali game. Sea Isle City will hold a similar celebration. Otean City will celebrate the day more quietly but not the less delightfully. Atlantic City and Cape May will be important points of in- terest for Memorial Day parties. The delfghts of these two resorts are too well known to need description. All fhe Summer pleasures will be inaugurated. The Pennsylvania Railroad affords direct and convenient ser- vice to all of these resorts. Increased service to and from Long Branch and Asbury Park under the early summer schedule has been recently established. To Atlantic City through trains leave New York at 9.55 A. M., 2.55 P.
