In all forms of human endeavor the
tendency in recent years has oeen
toward specializing, for, as is evident
where effort is directed and concen.
trated on one line to the exclusion OF
all others, everything else being
equal the very best results must sure
" follow. The building lines have
their specialists, as well, in those who
make study of particular kinds OF
construction, who are alert to every
new idea bearing directly on their
occupation, who have gathered by
association and experience invaluable
knowledge of the practical results TO
be secured, and who, therefore, ASIDE
from their established skill as me-
chanics and standing as business men
hold out advantages that invariably
command recognition. AS general
contractors Pilchard & Furness give
their time and effort exclusively TO
the construction OF public buildings
such as banks, court houses, town
halls, tails, etc. Their repeated sue
cesses in this line are best demon
strated by their creations which are
found throughout Maryland and Vir-
ginia. and which are enduring testi-
monials of their executive and me-
chanical ability. From the many
few only will be given. These are

Governor Swanson was the guest OF
the people of the Eastern Shore Tor
two days this week and while al
Chincoteague made a speech, when
insures him a hearty welcome from
all who heard it, when he favors us
with another visit. His talk in the
main was of Virginia and her inter
ests, of her glorious record In the
past and the still brighter future that
awaits us if we are true to ourselves
and he spoke with an earnestness TOO
convincing for any one to doubt, that
not only as the executive of the Old
Commonwealth but as a citizen he
could be counted on at all times
to do all in his power to build
ND her material interests and add
lustre to her great name. He was
equally happy in his remarks about
our local affairs, and while he made nc
extravaganza promises as to what we
might expect of him in the future, ne
impressed his audience with the con
yiction that the rights and interests Of
old Accomac were as dear and al
sacred to him as those in any Other
mart of the State. In a word,it was
speech full of lofty patriotism for al
Virginia and all that pertains to hel
welfare, and especially to be common
ded for the appeal made by him TO-
purity and integrity in our public a.
we'll as private lives.
