than on what We have.” THE “Sawmills can’t run without using up logs; nor saloons run without using up boys and girls. Have you one to spare.”

COUNCIL SPENDS ENTIRE EVENING
ON POUCE OFFICERTown affairs were placed in the
discard Tuesday evening, to give the mayor and town council the entire evening to discuss what should be done regarding one member of the police force. This was the regular monthly meeting of the council to transact important business affairs of the town.
However at a previous meeting, a majority of the council voted to request the resignation of John Phillips, night policeman for the town. Phillips was appointed to this position about nine months ago from a field of twenty or more applicants, and he had charge of all night police work, patrol- ing the streets through the night.
A large number of business men of the town, indignant at the decision of the council, asking for Phillips resignation, presented a petition to the council, setting forth the fact that there had not been a single robbery or major crime in the community since he had been on the police force, and protesting the action of the council in asking for his resignation. To date Phillips has not handed in his resignation, and after spending an entire evening discussing the subject, the council could not arrive at a decision as to what step should be taken next.
Another movement by the council— that of widening Lansing Avenue, has been tabled, after a petition of townspeople asked for such widening. This is a new street, leading from Lindbergh Avenue to the Laurel Lake, into tho area recently opened up with four been constructed, three by Raymond new homes. This number has already Elliott, and one by Clarence Mitchell. A water line and electric line have been extended the length of the Avenue and property owners had requested the widening to improve the value of their property. Only one owner Is reported as opposed to the widening, but after receiving the petition, the council declined to proceed with the condemnation proceedings,
Town Clerk Samuel Ralph reports that the tax revenue has been coming in about as rapidly as usual since July 1st. but that It has slowed down now, and will not Increase much until September, the last date for paying without having Interest added.

Swims River In Effort To Elude
Police Pursuers
A 14-year-old boy who on many occasions has been in the toils of the law, and who is even now on probation, added one more exploit to his record Wednesday when, after falling to lie himself out of a misdemeanor, he. escaped from railroad officials and jumped into the Nanticoke river to evade arrest
The boy, Howard Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs, Perry Johnson, of Blades, was caught as he was attempting to hop a ride on a northbound freight, and while waiting for the police to arrive, he told his captors a pitiful tale of being an orphan, desperately In need of food, and begged them to let him proceed to Wilmington where he had a kind uncle who would look after him. As he was finishing his sad tale. Chief of Police George W. Bowden arrived, and seeing hint approaching, young Johnson pulled away and fled to the river, diving overboard and swimming to the opposite shore. Chief Bowden and Patrolman Kemp Marshall followed him, and almost caught him as he tried to pull himself aboard aome piling at the Peninsula Oil Company wharf several hundred yards abov the point where he went over- boar. He eluded the officers by going overboard again, and was captured after he crawled into the marshes on the south shore of the river,
Juvenile Court Officer Bert Whaley was called to take charge of the case.
The youth has been previously involved in many excapades.

Cantaloupe Market Lowest In History
Experienced cantaloupe growers report this to be the worst season in this area for growers of this crop. They state that the price has never started so low at the beginning of the season. Heavy shipments were made all of last week and the early part of this week. Prices at the opening of the season and up to date, have barely paid the picking bill plus the cost of the packages. Most of last week and on Monday of this week, the price for “flats”, packages of a dozen melons, sold for 25 and 30 cents, while two-thirds or packages of two dozen, sold for forty and fifty cents. The package alone in the latter case costs the farmer about 25 cents.
The crop was at its height here the first two days of this week, and a short crop is expected due to the exceptionally hot weather. Many fields are already beginning to fail. Some of the farmers are dusting their vines in an effort to hold the vines, hoping for higher prices after the rush is over. Many farmers are selling their melons in the field in bulk for a cent and half each, with truckers from the city buying direct from the field.
Tlie failure of the “lope” crop to date on top of the failure of the cucumber is bringing quite a hardship to the farmers of this vicinity, many of whom depend entirely on these two money crops.
FSA Administrator Ask Owners To
List Farms For Sale
A few owners in Kent and Sussex Counties will have an opportunity to sell their farms for cash, it is announced by Chester J. Tyson. County Supervisor of the Farm Security Administration in Dover, Delaware.
This has been made possible, Mr. Tyson said, through the allocation of a limited amount of funds to Kent and Sussex Counties by the FSA for loans to worthy farm tenants, sharecroppers and farm laborers for the cash purchase of farms of their own. This is in accordance with the provisions of the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act, now entering its third year of operation,
“Naturally these purchasers will have to repay their loans from the farm earnings,” Mr. Tyson stated'. “This means that they will desire family size farms in good state of fertility. Buildings should be adequate for farm operations, and Very little expense be needed for repairs. No farms will be purchased in excess of a reasonable appraisal value placed by Farm Security appraisers.
"In order that the fanner may have access to his community and his markets throughout the year,” he explained further, “the farm should be located on or adjacent to an improved road. School and church should be within reach of the farm.”
Mr, Tyson stated that since applications for these tenant purchase loans are to be received in his office, owners may also list their farms with him for consideration of the borrowers, at the following address: Chester J. Tyson, Rural rehabilitation Supervisor, Farm Security Administration, S, State Street, Dover, Delaware.
Anyone having farms for sale should list them at the earliest possible moment if they are to be considered for purchase with the present allotment, Mr, Tyson said,
“It should he clearly understood,” Mr, Tyson said, that a listing of these farms in my office will in no way hind the FSA, or the seller. If sold as a result of this listing, no commission will he charged.”
The final selection of farms will be made by the borrower and by the Kent and Sussex County Tenant Purchase Committees,
Special blanks for listing of farms for sale may be obtained at the office of Mr. Tyson, Rural Rehabitation Supervisor, Farm Security Administration, Parke Building, South State Street, Dover, Delaware,

$658,662 Welfare Bill Passed By State Legislature
Twelve bills to authorize appropria tions totaling $658,662 to the hospitals in the state, the volunteer fire companies. welfare institutions, and veterans’ organizations were passed by the Legislature Tuesday.
They received unanimously approval in the Senate. In the House' there was only one vote recorded against them. This was by Rep. Frank W. Thawley, a Democrat, of Laurel, who refused to explain his opposition.
Passage, of the bills came after Gov. Richard McMullen in a message to the Assembly had declared: “It is time this ‘sit-down strike’ end.” Approval by a three-fourths vote was made possible by the abandonment by the Democrats of the bloc formed last winter against all legislation requiring more than a majority vote. The bloc was in realition for the passage by the majority Republicans of the so-called ripper measures. The surprise decision of the minority to support the appropriation bills was reached at a Democratic caucus this morning.
However, due to action of the Senate in recessing until August 14 before presiding officer of the two houses had signed the bills, the measures cannot become laws before that date and possibly not for ten days afterward. It had been planned to deliver to the office of Governor McMullen tomorrow and ho Would have had ten days in which to consider them. Democratic leaders said that there is no doubt the Governor will approve all of them.

Salisbury HospitalFund Reaches $92,886
Contributions to the Peninsula General Hospital Campaign have readied $92,886, it was announced Wednesday evening at the get-together meeting of teams at the Wicomico High School in Salisbury. The Salisbury men’s teams reported $4,507 collected during tho 2nd lap of the Intensive drive, and the Salisbury Women’s teams reported $5,526, leading the men once again.
Outside areas reported: Snow Hill, $1,056; Berlin $014; Newark $144; Tyaskin $212; Fruitland $236. These are amounts collected since the first report meeting Monday and do not include what Was reported then.
The first lap of the ten-day intensive period in Peninsula General Hos. pital’s campaign for $150,000 brought total contribution up to $80,384.60, according to campaijn headquarters at Salisbury, Md-. This figure includes .the $11,194 obtained in the first efforts by the three hundred campaign workers in Salisbury, and the $1,235 reported by a few outside communities that weren’t cncluded in the main four divisions into which the territory for a radius of forty mites around Salisbury has been divided for purposes of solicitation.
“The success of this campaign is essential for the safety and health of the people on this Peninsula,” William S. Gordy. Jr- campaign chairman, stressed in a statement after making an analysis of these first figures. “There is no other way to enlarge this hospital except by voluntary contributions from our citizens,
"The backbone of America’s health is the voluntary hospital system. Most of the hospitals of America, like our own, are built by such voluntary contributions. I would like to emphasize too that although we welcome every gift regardless of its size, the hospital cannot be enlarged by $5.00 and $10 contributions. The success of this campaign depends on sacrificial giving.”
Analysis of the reports showed that memorials are proving a popular manner of giving, They are known as "living memorials,” that continue the useful achievements of a beloved one, in contrast to the sterile stone epitaphs that ordinarily are erected to honor individuals or organizations.
Two hospital doctors were unexpectedly called on to speak at the first get-together of the Salisbury teams in the’ Wicomico High School. Their remarks stirred the audience with the grimness and seriousness of the hospital problem that faces the Eastern Shore,
“Day after day.” said Dr. Ix A. Rade- maker, "I see patients in my office and- at their homes who are in desperate need of Peninsula General Hospital. I have to postpone bringing them to the hospital because there is no space left to put them.
“I have to give injections and treatment to patients who are in bed in the hallways. We can’t keep on working that way. We have to have more room.”
Then Dr. William L. Howard got up to add:
“That’s my daily experience as well. Only this afternoon, I tried to get a patient in the hospital and couldn’t”
Peninsula General wa sthe first and Is the largest hospital on the Eastern Shore. Every dollar that is being contributed) in this campaign will be used to pay for actual construction of necessary extensions to the hospital. Not a penny is being spent to pay the expenses of this campaign, as these costs were entirely provided for before the “drive” even started. In addition, it is pointed out by the campaign committee, Peninsula General Hospital owes no money for either operating expenses or capital expenditure. The hospital has constantly pointed out that it doesn’t ask for support—all it wants Is the necessary money to enlarge itself so as to be able to meet the demands put on lt by the people of the

Large Steamship Lines Purchase
Delaware ApplesSeveral of the large steamship com
panies in New York City arc using Delaware apples in their supplies. Reports coming to J. L. Soper, Director of the Bureau of Markets, disclose the fact that these companies are well pleased with the quality of Delaware fruit.
Thus, it is evident that by practising good grading and packing methods our growers will be able to greatly increase the consumer demand for Delaware quality fruit.
At the present time, Gravenstein and Wealthies are being marketed.

Interesting reports of the recent Executive conference of this district; held at Rehoboth Beach, were given at the regular meeting of the Laurel Rotary Club Monday evening. Five members of the club attended the convention. and the reports were given by Dr. J. A. Wilker and Clifton E. Phillips, vice-president of the Laurel Club.

Secretary Ira Lewis read a message from the new president of Rotary International, Walter D. Head.
The president announced that tha date for the annual visitation of tha district Governor, William E. Matthews had been set for the 21st of August, but inasmuch as this is the date foe the annual club outing, the secretary was advised to secure another data from the Governor. The Board of Directors was authorized to proceed with the plans for the anuual outing.

Bureau of MarketsEnforcing Loupe Law,
Have you over had the misfortuna to sit down to breakfast and have a lucioUs, golden Delaware cantaloups (apparently) set before you and then when you were all set io enjoy to your complete gastric satisfaction this treat of ail treats, find Jo your complete disillusionment that you are again face to face with a green, immature melon. Yes, we agree with you. there should be “a law against It* and there is and has been since, 'he Delaware Legislature passed tiiv Bill in 1934 enn titled “An Act Relating to the Marketing of Cantaloupes.”
The purpose of the law Is to protect the consuming public against just such an unfortunate situation as described above, Cantaloupes are a particularly hard full for the average person to judge as (o fitness for consumption; and a complete loss to the housewife who buys one nol matured or “ripe’* as commonly (cmed, Obviously it would react profitably to the Delaware grower or shipper if such unmarketable fruit were prevented front reaching the consumer.
For this reason, this law empowers the State board of Agriculture through its Bureau of Markets to inspect all cantaloupes bought or sold in the State to determine by approved and accepted methods whether they are fit for human consumption. Thus, the consumer is protected and the grower and retailer is assured that they can use all legitimate means of advertising a truly high quality product.
Like all laws covering inspection at farm products grown over a large territory, only that man power can be used wherein funds are provided. Due to serious curtailment of funds by the Legislature this year, the wprk will be concentrated on the first two weeks o£ the growing season.

It gives! advice and entertaining reading on every subject in which a young fellow ' is interested. It is particularly relp- j ful in sports. I made our school basketball team because of playing tips I read in THE AMRICAN BOY.”
Many famous athletes in all sports credit much of their success lo helpful suggestions received from sports articles in THE AMERICAN BOY Magazine, Virtually every issue offers advice from a famous coach or player. Football, basketball, track, tennis, in faot every major sport is covered in fiction and fact articles,
Teachers, librarians, parents and leaders of boys clubs also recommend THE AMERICAN BOY enthusiastically. They have found that as a general rule regular readers of THE AMERICAN BOY advance more rapidly and develop more worthwhile characteristics than do boys who do not read it.

RADIANT LIVING Burning Hearts
By Rev, C. M. Gritleth Methodist Pastor of
Rid,uly, Md.
The two disciples to whom Jesus re-, vcaled Himself nt Emmanus recalled, how their hearts burned within them ns the stranger who, while walking With Jhem, had opened to their Under- i standing the prophecies concerning J the Christ
Anti have not our hearts, too, glow- j ed within us as we have been reading i the Word of God? »
As your eyes followed along some! passage of Scripture did it not sudden- , ly blaze forth in all its brillancy ot > thought and of beauty, and of signifi-1 cancel Was not your mind suddenly J filled with Vision and your heart cn- I composed with a glow of warmth? j And was not that inward burden an, indication of the drawing near oi the Blessed Interpreter? i
As a certain writer says: "We are not separated from God by cpacial dis- ► iance but only by a moral dissimilitude. J To the eye of purity He manifests him- j self as He does not to the world. A» soul in harmony wilh His infinite per-1 lection will see Him and enjoy Him at. all times and in all places.” !
It is in the glowing heart that we recognize the approaching Risen Lord. A soul coming into a harmonious relationship with God Is capable oi sensing the Divine presence.
As a mirror, clean and polished is brought into the streaming rays of the sun, is instantly beaming with a golden glow, so the heart, having been redeemed by the blood e,f Christ and cleansed by the Spirit of God, glows in golden radiance at the approach of the unseen Divine Master.
Thank God for those times when our. hearts bum within us.

TAKING IT—WASHINGTON—The strong chin
oi Franklin Delano Roosevelt last week look a seios of blows such as no President ot the U. S. ever sullered and survived. The blows would not, of course, have fallen had Mr. Roosevelt not stuck his chin out father than any , President since Woodrow Wilson. He could have seen the attack coming had lie not blinded himself to tile meaning of the last Congressional election. ( Fighter that he is, it is doubtful that, he would have withdrawn his chin I even then. All during the first session j of the 76th Congress he absorbed at- i tack, going back for more on one issue after another. But now came die ter- ■ rible closing rounds, as an angry and j rebellious Congress fought toward the ’ adjournment bell. ,
One evening the Roosevelt chin protruded over a small table drawn up i before his couch in his upstairs While’ House study. Seated on straight- ] backed chairs facing him were Charles j McNary and Warren Austin, the No, 1; and 2 Republicans of the Senate, and, William Edgar Borah, the Senate's dean' on Foreign Affairs, Seated near-by j also were "Dear Alben’’ Barkley, the loyal but bemused Senate Majority Leader; Secretary of State Hull; Chair- , man Key Pittman of the Foreign Re-' lations Committee, White House Sec-, rotary Steve Early, Slowly revolving J a cigar between pursued lips, looking more than ever owlish. Viee-Piesi-1 dent "Cactus Jack” Gamer was also there. <
This meeting was at Franklin Roosevelt’s invitation. It was an act, not of self-abasement like Neville Chamberlain’s trip to Munich, but of cheerful desperation. He wanted to tell the Senate’s leaders face to face why he needed a free hand in world power polities, what was going on in the mad world abroad.
Master word-painter Hint be is, Mr. Roosevelt painted once more the sombre scene of war preparations in Eu- • rope, of foreboding peoples, massing armies, cities full of women and children trembling beneath a sky that soon might rain horror. Cordell Hull picked up tir. narrative when his chief was thr ill It, but was pit .cully interrupted by leonine Senator Borah. He, too. he i.uel. receives advices from abroad. He begged to ditTi r with the chiefs of sf.ite that war was as imminent abroad as they let them elves think.

the Senator did not propose to match his sources of intelligence with those of the U. S. State Department? The lion of Idaho, who has never been abroad, denied this implication—but now came a fresh interruption.
Tho Garner cigar had stopped reviving. Tile Garner grin was on, His precise words may appear some day in his memoirs. Commonest version reported last week was that, eyeing the President, the Vice President said;
“All right, Cnp’n, we might as well lie candid. What's the use of talk-j ing about it? You haven’t got the voles, have you?" j
Resignedly, Albeit Barkley polled the Senators present on whether they| thought there were votes enough in the Senate to give Mr. Roosevelt the kind of Neutrality he wants. All answered: No.
Secretary Hull sat dejected, slumped in his chair. But Franklin Roosevelt, taking this final wallop in his Neutrality tight, was more resilient. He informed the Senators that he would carry the issue to the Popple. (Senator Borah growled thats all right, the People should hear the other side, too.) He got the Senators to agree that full responsibility for failure to change the Neutrality law now should rest with them, and that Neutrality shall be the first order of business on their calendar next session.
Other socks Mr. Roosevelt took last week:
Keystone of the temple built by the New Deal for Labor is the National Labor Relations Act, administered by the NLR Board. A coalition of House Democrats (mostly Southerners to whom C. I. O. is anathema), and almost all the Republican minority voted (254-to-134) to investigate NLRB. Meat of this inquiry will be: how far has the Board favored C. I. O, over A. F. of L.? How far employe over employer? Has it ecceeded its statutory powers? Administered improperly? Written arbitrary law? All these are charges that have been brought daily, weekly, monlh-in-monfh-out by the anti-Roosevelt fortes Which fought the Board's creation in Congress, its preservation by tho Supreme Court. Spokesman for these forces and prospective conductor of tho inquiry was Virginia’s spindly, laconic Representative Howard Smith, 50. whom Mr, Roosevelt tried and failed to purge last year.
Franklin Roosevelt's “Great While
Rabbit of 1939”—the $3,860,000,000 “self-liquidating" lend-spend program where-by Recovery was to be revived in 1940, was more raw meat for the coalition. Foreign credits were a feature clipped off even before Majority Leader Barkley introduced it In bill form. Tlie Senate Banking and Currency Committee promptly knocked $310,000,000 off the Barkley total of $2,800,000,000. The Committee insisted on a provision barring loans for projects (e, g„ power plants) competitive with private enterprise. It abolished the permancy of all proposed revolving funds, fixing time limits up to 30 years for bond liquidations. It obliged Leader Barkley to remove “Self Liquidating” from his bill’s euphonious title, substituted “Works Financing.”
When Joe Robinson was Majority Floor Leader of the Senate, no Democrat would’ have dreamed of trying to slip over an important bill when the Leader wa saway from his desk or preoccupied. Last week the level to which the supposedly ruling party had fallen was sensationally exposed by Leader Barkley’s own colleague, ponderous Logan of Kentucky, who slipped over an act basically altering the authority of the New Deal’s entire administrative structure while Leader Barkley and his whip, “Shay” Minton, were engrossed in conversation right on the floor. Not only that, but Senator Logan argued in open Senate against his colleague and Leader, when

Altho our farmers are harvesting the finest crop of Cantaloupes known in recent years, so far as quality is concerned, the price has remained so low since the opening day. that it is proving a losing crop to date. Local cantaloupes are of the best quality that can be produced anywhere, yet the price is at rock-bottom. This is partly due to a heavy crop of peaches being marketed at the same time; but locally it is also due to two other reasons, a lack of advertising, and a lack of competitive buying,
We know of one city buyer who was here on Monday and loaded his truck at an average of 30 cents per carrier, just a little above the cost of tlie packages, and he told one of the farmers whose load he had bought, that he expected to pay, and was willing to J pay 50 cents per carlrer, but because
this job to help the tire company, it has, now developed into a business,With these salesmen receiving a nice commission on all the business sold.Many persons receive a nice income for a month or so each year from this source. Last season, one woman told' us that she comes to this section from Philadelphia every season, just to sell these automobile chances, because she can make a good income in this manner.
And now this year, Seaford has started another carnival, and our town is Hooded with salesmen, selling chances on their automobiles. We suppose any town has the right to raise needed funds by means of carnivals—if they want to do it that way—but it seems that when our town has outlawed the carnival, that our citizens should not be worried by people from other towns coming here to sell chances. There is probably nothing we can do about it except to refuse to purchase them— and if enough people would take that stand, it would soon discourage such workers in our community.

cal modem homes are rising literally! out of the ground in many places these days. They are built of “rammed! earth” The ancient Romans knew and used this construction process and t Europe has long employed it for small e houses and even churches. Only lately i has serious study been given to it in, the United States. Journalist Selma" Robincbn describes the method and' some of its modem uses in the current Rotarian magazine. ■
The technique is simple, Miss Robinson pointed out. Into wooden forms - loose earth, of proper composition, is; shovelled, and then stamped—or “ram- med”—to stony hardness with flat- ' faced tampers. Allowance for all op- > enings, conducts, and joints must be
I made as the walls go up. That the' walls last is evidenced by a rammed-, earth dwelling 1^6 years old' in Washington, D. C.,wbose walls today are said to be stronger than ever, 1
Rammed-carth walls, says the writer ■ are notable for their insulating qualj-i ties against both heat and cold. They’ are fireproof, soundproof, and almost- sure protection against rodents, ver-, min, and termites. They resist high ; winds. Exteriors may be stuccoed or, painted with a protective coating. t

LAUREL, DELAWARE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1939 SI.50 PER YEAR
Town Officer IsRetained On Duty
At a recent special meeting of the Laurel Town Council, it was voted to ask for the resignation of Officer John Phillips, who had been appointed to the position from a score of applicants. Phillips demanded a hearing, after which the council still favored asking for his resignation. The officer still declined to send in his resignation, and when the council at its regular meeting failed to press any charges or to formally dismiss him, Mayor Thomas W. Records ordered Phillips to continue with his duties as night policeman.
The failure of the council to press their action, was largely due to a petition signed by most of the business men of the, town, asking that he be kept oh the job.

Careful and considerate driving on the part of a New York State driver Wednesday afternoon probably saved the lives of one or two children at the comer of Central Avenue and Clayton Avenue.
A group of children were enjoying a bicycle ride about the town. A part of the group had ridden on to Central Avenue, but just as Lois White 13, and her brother Dana, 11, both riding one bicycle arrived at the corner, they rode directly into the side of the passing car. Both riders were thrown to the concrete, Lois x*eceiving a bruised head and Dana numerous cuts and bruises. Both received medical aid, but it is thought neither will suffer serious consequences.
Witnesses stated that the car was traveling not over 20 miles an hour and that the driver stopped instantly to give aid to the injured children. Police officials who investigated the accident, released the driver, when it was learned the children were not seriously injured.
Some of those who saw tlie accident report that had the car been travelling at a high rate of speed, as is common through the residential section on the main highway,that it would most likely have resulted in a fatal accident.

The Mercantile Section of lhe Chamber of Commerce of Wilminglon has announced that Wilmington’s nett semiannual "Dollar Day" will lie held under its auspices on Wednesday. August 16th. As usual, practically every reiail merchant in the eity will participate in this event. The details of tiro observance will be in charge of a special committee of lhe Section, of which Edward A. Munch, a well-known Wilmington reiail eveeulive, is the chairman, Mr. Munch, as well as the other outstanding! Wilmington merchants who comprise the committee, are widely known throughout the Del-Mar- Va Peninsula.
This will he toe fifty-first consecutive observance of the semi-annual “Dollar Day,” which is held Spring and Fall. The idea started with the old Mercantile Committee of the Chamber, which many years ago preceded the present Mercantile Section, and was copied all over the country, because of ies unusual features.
More than one hundred local tores are participating in the “Dollar Day," and each of these member-stores will be sesignated by the display of the official “Dollar Day” distinctive window and price cards, each of which will bear the eopywrighted emblem of the Chamber of Commerce, and the words “Official Slore-dollar Day, Wednesday August 1G, 1939” wilt appeal' on window streamers on the show windows of member stores. All stores will be open by 9 o’clock in the morning. Davlight Time. i
'fo protect out-of-town motorists from the restrictions normally imposed by Wilmington traffic regulations, the Bureau of Police has authorized the issue of a courtesy coupon to be displayed on windshields. A copy of this is published in another column for the convenience of those visiting Wilmington on the occasion of this community-wide event.
A survey which Mr. Munch and iiis committee have just completed discloses that Wilmington merchants are making every possible effort to make this the outstanding "Dollar Day” of the long series, from the view point of tlie visiting shopper. All records of diveristy of selection, values, and bargains offered will lie broken by the offerings to be presented on August 1G, lie declared. Tile last word in season d merclian lise of even character will be j available to the di.timing shopper.] u!.(!h<r; 4:it,; fi i aPich 1 i f pi i semi’; wi r. .I iiimon* "f for t o m the' loei ,The o 1: liar Days" by no j mean., ate ciuliti'il hi wemiii.r appaloi j but nW 'he wl'e'e 1 art of rctailj •1 ■ t, h a 'h o; ’ 1 ' ’ all K d. of

but very busy preparations for the “Dollar Day," so that the very best! possible array of first-class merchandise ’ of every character at real, worthwhile bargain prices, may be ready for lhe careful shopper. Wholesale markets- have been combed, drastic price reductions which could be made without, sacrificing high quality in goods have bet 11 arranged, and details of prompt serivte of expected chrowds have been worked out. It is a real problem of store management to guarantee lhe orderly handling and expeditious service for large numbers of conservative shoppers which hardly is realized by the customer.
Tlie Committee desires to stress the fact that "Dollar Day” will lie lieid regardless of weather conditions, that it will be held on one day only, namely,, Wednesday, August 16, an dlhat no advance reservations of "Dollar Day"; bargains will be made. Neither will “Dollar Day" prices obtain either prior' to or after “Dollar Day."

Technical progress in planning, improved use of materials and equipment, and better business management are all making marked strides in giving better values in return for the homebuilding dollar, according to Federal Housing Administrator Stewart Me- Dolald.
The market for new homes will be enlarged in direct ratio to the success with which the building industry is able to find ways and means of giving better values in its home offerings, Mr. McDonald said.
“Financial institutions and the Federal Government, Working jointly in the operation of the Insured Mortgage System, have made a major contribution in expanding the market for homes by reducing the costs and liberalizing the terms for home-mortgage credit,” Mr. McDonald said. “The next steps lie in the hands of the building industry and of state and local gov-

The realities of the material realm, ore, Indeed, quite important. The realities of the spiritual realm, how-, ever, are far more so. If lift Is de- ( pendent upon, and is influenced by,; material substances, It is even more dependent upon, and influenced by, spiritual realities. *
Bread is a material reality and sym- . boBcal of materialism. God is a spiri- 1 tual reality. He is the source and, indeed, the realm of all that is spiritual. There is therefore more in life than just bread.
Bread sustains the physical body. But there is another bread upon which the Inner man must feed if he desires to emerge from the crammed confines of his back yard Df materialism and explore the vast and unlimited world of marvelous wealth that lies beyond his front gate.
That bread is the bread of the Spirit —spiritual truths, spiritual facts, spiritual laws. Feeding upon this spiritual bread results in opening to the consciousness the heavenly realm of Infinite Love wherein one discovers joys unspeakable and full of glory.
That man who believes only whot the material world precents lo his consciousness would do well to ponder long upon this statement: r‘5Ian shall not live by bread atone, but by every Word that procc-edoth out of the g.i ills of God.

This year's successor to last year’s memorable “Four Daughters,” is ano-; ther Warner Bros, picture of the joys, and Sorrows of an amusing and lovable family, entitled "Daughters Courage- > bus,” scheduled to open next Monday ( at the Waller Theatre. .
While it is in no sense a sequel tof “Four Daughters,” since it concerns! another family played by the samei stars, but in a different setting, the new f picture has many facets of resemblance. I
The most striking and what will! probably be the most satisfying, is the j fact that every member of the cast of ■ "Four Daughters” has a part of equal j importance and of a similar signifi-| cance in the new production. Ta as- 1 sure recapture of the charm which soj distinguished last year’s picture, thel studio assigned the same director, Michael Curtiz; fo "Daughters Courag-j ecus” and even had the screen play written by a team of scenarists of which one member was also a co-author of last year’s 'Tour Daughters.”
SOME DIFFERENCEThe old gentleman did. not try to
help his wife Into their new car as he Used to in the horse and buggy days.
•You’re not so gallant as when I was a gal” she told him.
"No,” he replied, "and you’re not so buoyant as when I was a boy."

came to his aid, Drought as well as subsidy and legal restriction reduced wheat surpluses, com surpluses, even cotton surpluses, But three years ago Drought began to withdraw its assistance. This year Drought turned its attention (selectively) to tho Northeastern States: May was borne dry and July was desert (until rains came last week) and both did plenty of damage to truck and fruit crops. But eastern Drought did not reduce the crops that are Mr. Wallace’s big problems.
So for a third year in succession he has a major surplus to fight. Last year wheat was the most acute headache, year before it was cotton, this year corn. Last week he had to face tlie music. On August 1 came due the loans of 57 a a bushel which he made to farmers who put under seal part.of their last year’s crop.
Last January Midwestern farmers were hoarding com holding out for higher prices. Last week, the price was down to 40c, the lowest in six years, and no one wanted any of it. This year’s crop is huge (estimated 2.550,000,000 bu.) Besides, there is an approximated carry-over of 550,000, 000 bu. This, added to the new crop, comes to over 3,100,000,000 bu.. 350,- 000,000 bu. over the five-year average of “normalcy.”
If the Secretary finds the crop exceeding the “norm” by he mustassign marketing quotas (and- penal ties) to prevent market flooding, call ; vote asking for 2-3 approval by farmers thus quotated. Such umpiring on Wallace’s part would put him in the usual umpire’s spot. Last year Wallace slid out of calling a vote by estimating consumption and exports high enough to make the supply seem reasonable.
With corn at 40c, farmers who had borrowed 57c a bushel on 257.000,000 bu, started to unload about 100,000,000 bu. on Commodity Credit Corp. Hurriedly Secretary Wallace bought steel bins to hold 50,000,000 bu., hoped this would prop up the sorry com market.
Irony of the Secretary’s trouble is that most of it comes of his having struggled so long with the farm problem. Former farm editor, mathematician, agriologish he spent 15 years becoming Secretary of Agriculture in for a 1UUG while.”

Lalley Henry Wallace on his daily walk to his office in Washington has taken to stopping in Washington Monument grounds to practice with a boomerang for exercise But he never threw a better boomerang than his own hybrid seed, whose production economies and improved yield are no consolation to hopelessly overenpitated com farmers.ORPHAN— ^-°~-

The American BoyMagazine Companion
.. To Thousands of Boys
Hundreds of thousands of boys and young men read THE AMERICAN BOY Magazine every month and consider it more as a living compensation than as a magazine.
Its as much a buddy to me as my neighborhood chum,” writes one high school senior. “THE AMERICAN BOY seems to understand a hoy’s problems and considers them in such a sympathetic and helpful way. It gives advice and entertaining reading on every subject in which a young fellow is interested. It is particularly helpful in sports. I made our school basketball team because of playing tips I read in THE AMERICAN BOY.”
Many famous athletes in all sports credit much of their success to helpful suggestions received from sports articles in THE AMERICAN BOY Magazine. Virtually every issue offers advice from a famous coach or player. Football, basketball, track, tennis, in fact every major sport is covered in fiction and fact articles.
Teachers, librarians, parents and leaders of boys clubs also recommend THE AMERICAN BOY enthusiastically. They have found that as a general rule regular readers of THE AMERICAN BOY advance more rapidly and develop more worthwhile characteristics than do boys who do not read it.
Trained writers and artists, famous coaches and athletes explorers, scientists and men successful in business and industry join with an experienced staff lo produce in THE AMERICAN BOY the sort of reading matter boys like best,
THE AMERICAN BOY sells on most newsstands at 15c a copy. Subscription prices are $1.50 for one year

Miss Marion Leaves Economics Post HereFor Ohio Work
A threatening letter demanding $10-000 in cash from Alderman James K,Phillips, Sr., and Robert AlexanderStewart,, and signed with the name of ; the latter’s son, is being investigated! by slate police. |
Siewart’s son, Emory, 24 of Laurel; denied knowledge of the letter, which I warned that both men will suffer bod-1 ily harm if thc money is not forthcoming. Police compared his handwriting with that in lhc letter but did not say whether they were similar.
Young Stewart, n former soldier at Fort DoPunt was taken Into custody at a Laurel Hosiery Mill and is being held for questioning,
lhe letter, addressed to Alderman Phillips, was postmarked at Laurel at 2 o’clock Tuesday afternoon. Phillips received It about 7 p, m. The contents cruedly written in pencil, directed the Alderman and Stewart to leave $10,000 in cash under a stone at the Seaford postoffice that night or suffer bodily harm. Across the top of the paper were scribbled the words, ’death" and "funeral”
Phillips turned the letter over to State Detective C. E, Wilkins, of Georgetown. Town Police, under the direction of Chief G. W» Bowden, kept watch at the designated spot throughout the night but no one appeared.
Because the letter demanded they raise an “excessive" sum of money on short notice, Phillips and, Stew?rt were not inclined to treat It seriously. Stewart, a former blacksmith at Seaford, is now employed fo the Wilbur Fryling truck body works.
Police who are in charge of the Investigation are now working on the theory that the note was sent by some unknown person In an effort to’ “frame" young Stewart. They have questioned his recent bride, Martha Matthews Stewart, and her mother, Anna Matthews, both of Laurel,

. Miss Marion F. Breck who has been State Supervisor of Home making Education iq Delaware with tne State Board of Education has left this position to become Teacher Trainer in Home Economics at the Univeristy of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, phio.
Miss Breck has been a member of the staff in the State Office of Education for the past thirteen years. Under her directiqn, the Home Economics education program has grown from 22 to 36 homemaking departments in the high schools of the state and from a staff of 22 to 54 home economics teachers. The number of pupils taught in home economics classes has increased in this period from 450 to 3300 girls in the Junior and Senior high schools of the state. During tlie past ten years, Miss Breck was responsible for planning nnd equipping the home economics departments in nil the new schools as part of the State Building program, making Delaware one of the outstanding states in number and type of modern school rooms for homemaking teaching.
Considerable interest has been taken by Miss Breck in developing a sound program of training for homemaking among the colored people in the state, both for boys and girls enrolled in the schools and for adults. Home econo, mics dcparlmen* have been established in eight colored schools outside of Wilmington, with 12 teachers in charge,
Miss Breck has st- red the state through a number of civic organizations. She has been state chairman of the Department Home for the Stale Federation of Women’s Clubs for (cn years; and an active member of thc Felton Acorn Club, She is a posl president of the Delaware Vocational Association and tlie Delaware Home Economics Association, She has been secretary of lhe Stale Health Council for several years and an active member of the Woman's Auxiliary for Delaware Colony, During the past year, Miss Breck has been president of the District of Delaware Y. W. C. A. (
After graduation from the University of Wisconsin and teaching Home Economics in the Limwaukee Public system, Miss Bred4 completed her Master's Degree Under a $1,000.00 Fellowship at the same University. She was teacher trainer at the University of West Vir-
The heaviest rainfall of the summer struck, this, vicinity , early Saturday morning, when about three inches fell within a period of a few hours. The rain was accompanied by a high wind that did considerable damage to the corn crop, blowing much of it flat on the ground.
Little other damage was done. The cantaloupe season which is about closed was as much of a failure as the cucumber season. Only a few of the later plantings remain to be harvested, and the price continues unusually low. Local growers report they have never seen an entire season when the price remained so consistently low as during the present season. This was due partly to the large crop of peaches and partly to the fact that the season was such that southern lopes appeared on the market at about the same time as local melons.
The cucumber season was also a failure with the price remaining unusually low except during the first week, when only a few fanners had cucumbers ready for market.
The watermelon season is now rapidly drawing to a close, with prices being slightly higher during the past few days. Melons of 25 pounds and up have been selling for 12 to 15 cents, and inasmuch as no packages are required for this crop, farmers can realize a small profit. The cost of packages for cucumbers and cantaloupes took up the largest part of the income from these two crops.
Tomatoes are now being harvested with a good crop being reported. The local cannery of the Phillips Packing Company is operating on a restricted schedule. The local com crop appears to be exceptionally good and this was the only crop damaged by the storm of Saturday morning.
Not income of the farmers in tho vicinity has been the smallest to dale this J year that it has been for many years post.

New Pupils Register Aug. 31, Sept. 1st.
Laurel Schools will open this War on Wednesday, September 6th. The schools will be open from 8 »• m. to 4 p. nr. on Thursday, August

Members of the Laurel town council, Mayor T. W. Records and possibly 50 of the town’s prominent citizens went to Georgetown Tuesday night in defense of Officer John M. Phillips, against whom a charge of assault and battery was brought by Joseph L. Calloway before Magistrate W. Elwood Wright, The charge Was dismissed.
Callaway alleged that Officer Phillips early Tuesday morning, August 15, beat him up with a blackjack at a grill in that town.
The evidence disclosed that Louis Berman, 1149 East Fourteenth Street, Wilmington; Carlton R. Evans, an employe at the grill, and Officer Phillips were in the grill when Callaway, alleged to be intoxicated, entered. Callaway is alleged to have pushed Berman aside and made a pass at officer Phillips.
Previously, Chief of Police Harley Hickman testified he had heard Calloway say he never intended to be arrested by Phillips and that he would cause him to lose his job,
When Calloway attempted to hit Officer Phillips the latter told him that he had better go home or else he would lock him up,
A, tussle followed. Finally, upon reaching the door, Calloway fell to the sidewalk while the officer was attempting to handcuff him. Calloway contended the wounds on his head after the tussle were made by Officer Phillips' blackjack.
Calloway admitted he resisted the officer, but alleged that he was beaten from the time he left the grill until he reached ho the town lockup and even after being placed in the lockup.
Berman corrobated the story told by Evans. Both testified they never saw Officer Phillips use his blackjack.
Calloway contended he was so severely beaten ho never regained consciousness for about two nnd n half hours. Tlie officer nnd witnesses said he had received his head wounds evidently from lhe fall to lhe pavement.
James M. TUnnoli, Jr„ represented Phillips and (he membere of Laurel town council, while Frederick P. Whitney was counsel for Calloway.
Magistrate Wright, dismissing the charges against Phillip , said bo (bought, from testimony, the officer was justified in what lie did. Ho then gave a hearing lo Calloway on a charge of assault preferred by Berman. In this cose Calloway was placed under $500 bail for the Court of General Sessions, CInrencc Mitchell becoming surely.
Calioway, last week, was fined by Magistrate Thomas W, Records of Laurel, for drunkenness and disorderly conduct but took an appeal.

Sons And Daughters Of Concord Gathe,r130 Strong* For Annual Delaware Reunion
The Sons and Daughters of Concord held their 18th annual .reunion Saturday, many of them remaining over the Week-end, reminiscing, attending services in the little village church, and visiting old haunts of their youthful days. Despite a heavy downpour of rain the reunion was one of the largest ever held by the association, 130 being served at the old-fashioned chicken dinner Saturday afternoon in the community house, which was a high-light Of the meeting. The ladies of Concord served the dinner. Everett C. Cannon, of Princess Anne, Md, president of the association, was toastmaster.
Preceding the dinner a business meeting was held in the Concord Methodist Church, followed by memorial serivees for departed sons and daughters. Speakers at the church were the Rov. J. Edward Layton, of Wilmington; the ReV. A. W. Zimmerman, of Seaford; Seth Ellegood, of New York, and Mrs, Mary Donovan of Milford. At the business meeting E; C. Cannon, of Princess Anne, Md., was reelected president; Walter B. Conaway, of Conoord, secretary, and Mrs. Mary Calhoun, of Concord, treasurer.' A muskaf program seas given Sat- urday 'evening In the uomtaaunliy house
directed by F, Ray Phillips, of Wilmington, and Mrs. Sallie Sharp Messick of Seaford. The three Green children, of Oak Orchard, ranging in the age from 8 to II did acrobatic stunts.
The organization was founded hy members of the families of the late Dr. Joshua Ellegood, Thomas A. Jones and James Morgan, the first reunion being held in August 1921. Interest in the reunions has grown ever since. At the reunion Saturday, Mrs, Seth Ellegood and Mrs. Everett G. Cannon were great factors in keeping things moving smoothly and helping everybody have a good time.
Fishing, boating and bathing in the old Concord; millpond, indulged by many of the returning sons and daughters, brought back happy memories of their youthful days. The little village of Concord, a century or more ago, was an important shipping point on the Nanticoke River for grain, produce and iron ore, which at that time was found in abundance there, and full-rigged sailing vessels carried the goods to foreign told hottie ports. This was before the milreads passed up and down the peninsula.
The meeting adjourned to meet the third Saturday In August seut year.
