CHILDREN's DAY.

A Pleasing Program Rendered by the
Little Folks.
Children's Day was very beautifully cele-
brated last Sunday evening at Forest Pres
byterian church. A large congregation
filled the audience room, galleries. aisles,
and vestibules, and there was general ex-
preston of pleasure with the program as
given by the younger portion CT the Sun
day School Miss Lena Pleasanton the
SIS. Organist presided at the organ, and
played an appropriate march to which the
school entered the church, lead by two tiny
tods Helen Roe and Blanche Deakyne.
Prof w. B. Tharp Superintendent of the
school lead the exercises which consisted
of responsive reading, scripture quotations
and music all of which were well selected
and suited to the occasion.
]. B. Maxwell, Musical Dire ctor lead the
chorus singing, and every feature of the
exercise had some bearing upon the great
work of character building.
There were several motion songs by
boys and girls, that were exceptionally
pleasing. The Robins Song" by Willie
Echenhofer, George Kelly, Charlie and
Grover Talbot was one of the best Little
Builders" by seven girls was also excellent.
Little Helen Rowe captivated the au-
dience with her sweet little song, her
graceful movements and easy self possessed
manner. She is a perfect type of sweet and
happy childhood.
Misses Daisy Naudain and Mary Max
we'll, Messrs J. B. Maxwell and Harry Budd
sang pretty quartette, and the
Pastor Rev. F. H. Moore made an address
at the close, emphasizing the Importance of
Sunday School work, and encouraging the
teachers and scholars to continue in well
doing.
The decorations were not elaborate, but
in perfect taste and harmony. Those who
had the arrangement of the days exercise
in charge, may well feel gratifed with their
success.

tended Divine worship at the NJ. E. Church
Sunday morning. There were about 70
members in attendance, including some
visiting members from Patrick Henry
Lodge, of Delaware City, and Good Samari-
tan Lodge, of Middletown. Rev. Mr.. Dodd
the pastor preached an eloquent sermon
from Romans, xiii, 7; "For none ofus liveth
to himself alone" and gave very beautiful
idea of the teachings of Friendship, Love
and Truth, and presented in very clear
manner the duty that under his obligations
every Odd Fellow owed to his fellow man,
and how they by adhering to the obligation
and principles of their order could do much
to bring about that universal brotherhood
and true example of that fraternity that
was first taught by Christ when He was on
earth. No Odd Fellow could be one in the
proper way unless he was characterized by
that spirit that promted the Good Samaritan
to succor the traveller found by the wayside.
The sermon was listened to with close at
tention and everyone was impressed by it
and also with the high conception of the
teachings and principles Of the order enter
tanned by the preacher, and shows that he
has given it close study since becoming a

A FRIEND TO FARMERS
New Machines That Make New
Methods.

New Machines That Make New
Methods.
There have been more new inventions i'll
agricultural implements during the past
two decades than in any other industry,
and modern appliances in agriculture have
completely revolutionized farming methods.
A visit to J. F. McWhorter's ware-rooms
will give one very fair idea of the many
new machines now in general use on the
ago. All the implements described in the
illustrated catalogue which Mr.. McWhorter
recently issued, are found at his emporium,
from post hole digger to the magnificent
reaper and binder The Ideal" Deering
mower, the only mower on the market
that has ball bearings, is marvel of sim
plicity and durability in mechanical con-
struction. Hay harvest will soon be on.
and the ''Idear' is the mower to use.
Then there is the all steel Self Dump
harrows; plows that even to look at them
brings to mind visions of beautiful burrows
of newly turned fallow, and the pleasant
odors of new plowed ground, and the
touch of soft earth to the barefoot boy
who played in the furrow.
Mr.. McWhorter had carload of Imper-
ial plows in tho spring, but has sold them
nearly all. That Tubular Iron Roller is
also great invention. 1t is wonder
someone did not use their common sense
long ago. and invent roller that would pull
verize the clods instead of packing them in
the ground. The Deering Reaper still takes
the lead and with the jointed Platform
Binder is another step in advance.
Mr.. McWhorter also has a fine array of
carriages, surreys. buggies, phaetons, carts,
wagons and dearborns. His prices are
reasonable. and every vehicle he sells is
guaranteed to las represented, or money
refunded. His show rooms are very at
tractive, and he takes pleasure in exhibit
iting his beautiful carriages as well as his
farm implements to his farmer friends and
patrons.

A special dispatch from Snow Hill,
Nd, to the Baltimore San, says: 1t is not
very often that an abundance of fine fish
are seen swimming about in corn field,
but this happened near Snow Hill on Sum-
day. E. T. Pusey, on the west side of the
Pocomoke river, six miles from Snow Hill,
has fish pond stocked with German carp.
The recent heavy rains caused the pond to
overflow into the fields and pastures of the
farm, and when Mr.. Pusey's young son
went out to drive the horses and cattle
home he found the lot full of fish. = The
parent attention was called to the matter
and he saw the boy endeavoring to capture
big fish. while around him splashed many
others of the same family. Mr.. Pusey
killed many of them with stick for fear
they might get away from him. He sent
home for his mule and cart and returned
home with "a as fine German carp as were
ever seen anywhere. The weight aggre-
gated over 200 pounds. He took them to
Snow Hill and realized good price for
them.
