skating this week. 1t has been es-
pecially fine for the last few days.
The Rev James T. Van Burkalow,
who now lives in Dover, assisted us
in revival work from Wednesday of
last week until Sunday last Mr..
Van Burkalow, though now an old
man, is still quite an energetic and
forceful speaker. On Sunday morn
ing he preached an able sermon from
the words "And We shall be baptized
with the Holy Ghost and with fire."
He seemed to catch the spirit of his
old time ferver and fire and the entire
audience seemed to enter deeply with
him into his thought and subject. Mr..
Van Burkalow has been pastor here at
two different times. The first was
about fOrty-three years ago when
there were eight churches on Smyrna
circuit and he was junior preacher.
The second time was about twenty
years ago when he came back and
served alone on Smyrna circuit, of
which KentOn was still one of the
charges.
Mr.. Clark Mench, superintendent of
the rural mail routes in Delaware, has
been in town this week looking after
the interests of the routes.
Our depot has been quite busy the
past week loading corn. Ten cars
were shipped last week but this did
not come any where near filling the
demand. AS high as fifty-two cents
has been offered for this weeks de-
livery.
The officers of the P. o. S. of A,
were installed on Thursday evening of
last week.

Crumpton, spent few days last week
with Mrs. j. P. Walker. Mr.. Frank
Wllds of Crumpton, visited his par

friends in Philadelphia. Mr.. G. G.
Hutchinson made a business trip to

son of ProthOnOtary Moore of Dover,
was in town visiting his sister, Mrs.
r. L. Lloyd, last week. Mr.. Edward
Slaughter of Philadelphia, is visiting
his parents, MIR. and Mrs. E. B.
Slaughter. Mrs. Abel Numbers and
daughter, Miss Bessie, visited Mr..
and Mrs. J. w. Attix on Wednesday
of last week. Miss Eta P. Bailey is
suffering from an attack of the mumps.
Mr. John Arthurs is convalescing
from the grip.-Mr. H. B. Clark has
sufficiently recovered from the wound
made on one of his feet some time ago
with an ak, to be out again. Mr.. and

Before Buying a Piano.

The intending piano purchaser should
first obtain the book, How to Buy a
Piano. a comprehensive compilation of
piano information. A little study of
this volume affords a ready knowledge of
the instrument: its parts-their construc-
ton, operation and relation; the progress
sive steps in its development, together
with other valuable data all treated in un.
technical language The book fits the
reader to Judge knowingly of tonal ef
feet, touch and the durability of the piano
he contemplates purchasing. A postal to
Blasius & Sons, 11O1 1903 and 1119
Chestnut streets, Philadelphia, will fetch
a copy of the book free.

KENToN, Jan. 2O:- Most of our
people are engaged in getting in ice.
They haul it from Mr. Charles E.
Sherwood's mill pond. 1t is about six
inches thick and as clear and pure as
we have ever seen it. Mr.. S. A. Fort
ner filed his Ice house last week but
the ice was little soft and drippy.
Constable Charles FOuraker was
badly frightened on last Sunday morn
ing by what he thought was a serious
fire; but upon investigation it did not
prove quite so serious as was antici-
pated. just before retiring on Satur-
day night Mr.. FOuraker had filled his
air tight stove full of large wood and
then shut off the draught. Dur
ing the night the gas from the
stove exploded and blew the door of
the stove open. The room and all the
house below became filed with smoke
and it finally found its way to Mr..
Fouraker's bedroom. AS soon as he
could summon his thoughts he rushed
into the room where the children were
asleep and found them almost suffo-
Gated and then with the greatest
difficulty he found his way below,
almost stiffiing before he could open
door and ascertain what had made
the trouble.

Death of Mrs. George JOsephs:-''D Death
loves a shiny mark" The truth of
this quotation is verified in the death
of Kate Woodall Joseph, wife of George
Joseph, of Clayton, who passed from
earth to Heaven Friday morning, Jan
uary 18th, inst. She queitly entered
the unknown realm of eternity, rocked
to her eternal sleep by the angel of
Death to return no more to those she
loved so well, but stands beckoning
them to follow where she has gone.
God had endowed her with brilliant
intellect, pure heart, loving gentle
disposition, but surrounded these with
n tenement too frail to stand the en-
nment Of disease and death. 1t
can be truly said, that none who have
preceded her, to the Beyond, have
left q brighter or fairer page, on
which may be written the record of
her beautiful life, for truth and purity
were her high ideals. The quiet of
her hOme-the companiOnship of her
loving husband and children with a
few chosen friends were more to her
than all the frivolities of society. Her
death was the severing of the most
tender feelings not only in her home
but where ever she was known. In
her, were beautifully blended all their
lovely traits of pure honest unselfsh
womanhood- I need not say more, |
could not say less with regard to her
who has gone to join the blest beyond
the skies. Funeral services were held
at her late residence Monday morning,
interment at Odd Follows cemetery.
"LOUe made the earth life full Of Joy to her,
Lore shared with her its nearness to the stars
Lore went beyond them TO the home above,
And told of rest that sickness never mars.
And she in glory. viii not cease to care
For those she loved, Heaven still to earth 1
true;
Look nD and smile, lest she should miss you
there,
Oh keep near Heaven, that she may kee
near you" FRIEND.
