ON DUTY
MILFORD’S “BEACH POLICE” PICNICKING IN SAFETY “It's hard to find a needle in a haystack ...” And it's nearly as hard to find Little Cuthbert on Milford Beach— j that is, if you don't enlist the aid of \ the Milford Surf Club. This body of life-savers and beach police was on I duty yesterday in full force. It was j a gala day, the occasion of the first \ annual swimming carnival, and it was ; a great success. “We are very pleased with the J afternoon’s sport,” said Mr. A. C. ! Faulkner, captain of the club. ‘‘We intend to make this an annual affair, ihe cause is worthy of the public’s support, and in this way we hope to make our club and beach better This evening a team of six members of this club under their captain will give a demonstration of life-saving for the benefit of the City police, at the Central Police Station. Milford Beach yesterday accommodated a crowd of about 5,000. Many a Little Cuthbert was lost—and found, notwithstanding the liurf led . and vague description—“a striped bathing suit and fair hair.” ygs the Milford .Surf Club is doing its 'duty w ell, both on land and offshore.
