Rev. Alfred Smith, Representative 10 Congress
R. NJ. Cooper, Chairman of State Central
Committee; l. .M.Prlce. Committeeman

A number of Smyrnians were in Do
yer last Thursday in attendance upon
the Prohibition State Convention at
Dover. The meeting was enthusiastic.
The orator of the day was Hon. Homer

in the Berry Campaign. When Mr.
Castle began to speak on ''Some Twen-
tieth Century Problems" men from all
walks of life, and leaders of both par
ties crowded into the convention hall
and completely filled it. 1t was a warm
afternoon, but Orator Castle made it
hotter before he had finished. After
comparing the iniquity of graft in
Pennsylvania with the saloon evil, and
declaring that the men of his party
must arouse themselves and strike
while they have the opportunity to kill
and uproot the dram shop, Mr.. Castle
turned his attention to Delaware poll
tics and Delaware's liquor business.
The Prohibition ticket as finally
agreed upon is For representative in
CongI ess- Alfred Smith of Kent
County. For State Treasurer-G George
A. Rhoads of New Castle County. For

LOCAL STRAWBERRY CROP WILL BE SHORT
Late frosts and Continued Dry Weather has
Affected the Crop In This Vicinity.

The continued dry weather is caus-
ing some anxious concern among our
farmers and truckers. Rain has not
fallen to any considerable quantities
for several weeks with the result that
vegetation III suffering. The straw
berry crop already more or less af-
fected by the late frosts, is about fin
ished by the drought and the crop will
be short in this vicinity. The dry
weather has also affected the hay crop
and this commodity will be very scarce
in this vicinity. Everything is suffer
ing for want of rain and good heavy
shower will give new life to vegetation
generally. The fruit trees continue to
show signs of yielding a mammoth
crop. With the right weather condi-
tions fruit growers will have full

DELAWARE BOYS "ROOSTER ROAST"
Informal Dinner and Smoker TO be Given at

nesday, June 6tb-Smyrua Represented.
New YORK CITY, May 81: : The Delaware
Society is to have on June 9th at Terrace
Gardens something new and startlings g
"Blue Hens Rooster Roast" This
will be an ''infOrmal dinner and
smoker" These informal affairs were
started several years ago by William
Fl. Stayton, former Smyrna boy, in
''beef-steak dinner" It was very
happy idea and a great success. No
one is allowed in a "dress suit" If
any member has the temerity to go in
one he will never forget the reception
that will be given him by his colleagues.
This dinner will cause all the Blue
Hens ROosters to FLAP their wings
and crow with surprise. For instance,
that natural brown, golden -tongued
orator "Hot Tats" will give us a mon
olOgue entitled-well, he has to be
heard to be appreciated; GA. A. S. ;"
the black and white-faced comedians,
will introduce their new musical favor
entitled 'The White Rose Minstrels
Twenty-Five Years Ago" (regret that
the originals: Ned Hofecker. Doc:
Massey and Joe Carter, cannot take
part; William Dickson's famous quar-
tette, the "Cecilians," one Of the best
in the country, will be the stars of the
evening. Prof. Virgil Gordon will
furnish the classic part Of the enter
tainment, and those who have heard
him play can imagine what a delicious
feast awaits us. Other "Kernals of
amusements" will be scattered among
the "Blue Hens Chicks" that will
make them forget their sorrows and
cares. How delightful i. would be if
we could get in an air ship, sail to
Smyrna, and give our entertainment
in the Opera House. The Hall would
not be large enough to accommodate
the gathering of the Blue Hens
Chickens. II. S. S.
