Mirth, Not Misery, Love. Company.

MlrNn, NOT misery Loves company.
l nave always doubted the PROPOSE
ton that misery loves company" and
have believed that such a statement
was first put forth by some arch hypO-
critic whose misery was but a pretense
and who was beckOning some other
sham sufferer into a quiet corner
where they could both be jovial on the
sly.
However slight my knowledge of uni
versal misery may be, l can attest
from personal experience that my own
misery claims solitude and slips away
all by itself and turns the key upon the
curious world, asking nothing so much
as to be 'let alone" l do not care to
weep in company, nor would it cheer
me to have a chorus of other weepers
to sob in unison with me. Rather would
| remain i'll unmOlested wretchedness
until my tears had vanished and my
eyes and nose assumed normal appear
ance.
'Tis mirth then, and not misery,
which pines for company. Fun cannot
thrive alone and flOurishes only among
cOngenial spirits. Our laughter must
be shared, our smiles responded to, and
every glance of merrimcnt needs recog-
milton to make it worth the while

ROMANCE ON The EASTERN SHORE.
s. King White OF Salisbury Nd. Marries Miss
Iris Tull the Girl lie Rescued.

Mrs. Stella X. Tull of Marion,
Somerset county, Md, has announced
the engagement of her daughter Iris
to Mr.. Eouthey King White, of Sails
bury, Md. Miss Tull is the daughter
of the late William A. Tull, and a niece
of former States Attorney Gordon
Tull, of Princess Anne, Nd. She is a
graduate of Western Maryland College
of the class of 1909, and has a wide
circle of friends throughout the State.
Mr.. White is the cashier of the Peoples
National Bank of Salisbury, and also
editor and proprietor of the Salisbury
Advertiser, and is one of the foremost
young business men of Salisbury.
This engagement is the elimination
of thrilling experience in August of
1901, when Mr.. White rescued Miss
Tull from drowning while bathing in
Sinepuxent bay, near Ocean City, Md,
at which time they helplessly witness
ed the sad drowning of three of their
party, viz: Mr.. Grier Radcliffe, then a
young attorney of Salisbury; Miss
White, of Fowellsville; and Miss
Philips, of Baltimore. The marriage
will take place about the last of June.

consequence of the lack of help, they
have been compelled to grow only
those crops that could be handled al
most siEgle-banded. This has robbed
the land owners of the larger returns
that would have been possible with
variety of products. The soil of this
State has been found to be especially
adapted to market gardening and small
fruit growing; but to conduct this
business properly, considerable help
is needed-while, at the same time,
much less land is required than when
raising wheat and corn as the princi-
pie crops. These things being true
and they are proven by the few mon
in certain localities who are making
money with but twenty to fifty acres
of land-then, indeed, this newly
created Bureau of immigration" has
an important work to do. 1t will be
its business, not only to induce thrifty
farmers from Germany and other
countries to settle in Delaware, but
also to secure young, able-bOdied men
from these places as farm labOrers.
No fear need be entertained that
lere is not land enough in this
State to support the movement. 1t
is not only fact that we have more
available uncultivated land in Della
ware than that already in tillage, but
that is too that other point that
should not be overlooked: With in
creased help and the adoption of small
truck and fruit it-growing, the big farms
could advantageOusly be sub-divided.
Delaware can we'll afford to leave the
growing of grain to the grain lands of
! the West.

The help question among farmers
has received a fresh impetus by the
Bureau of immigration" created by
the recent session of the Delaware
Legislature. This all important sub
ject is one that interests the farming
communities generally. The Penin-
sULa Nel0s and advertiser of Milford
says the power given the Bureau
'should prove a way out of one dilem-
ma. at least for the farmers" This
matter has proven a serious PROPOSE
tion to a majority of farmers and, as q
