the whole lot, and in the future there
will be no question where game Of
ball can be played.
We are not in a position to announce

ly that during the coming week games

Hungarian PartridgeS.

The Delaware Game Protective AS
ISOLATION contemplates the purchase for
this fall, after the hunting
season is over, of from 80 to 100 pairs
of Hungarian cartridges These birds
are highly recommended by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. being extremely
hardy and prolific. and particularly
adapted for sections of this country
where severe winters are experienced.
as is often the case here. They are
twice the size of Bob White, and there
fore have sufficient strength to work
themselves out of the deep SHOWS where
the latter would succumb. Well water
ed woodland tracts in the vicinity of
arabic lands are the best suited, but the
partridge is easily pleased and can prac-
tically make its living anywhere There
are but few birds which so strictly ad-
here to their once selected abode as do
the Hungarian cartridges. Even their
offspring do not wander away. As for
sport in the field these cartridges can
not be surpassed. They are more swift
in flight than our quail and will lie much
closer to cover Giving the dogs bet
ter chance to range. nose and hold.
When flushed, these birds fly like shot
from a shell and at different angles.
hence they remove the privileges of pot
hunters of emptying both loads of lead
into their covey and perhaps kill half or
more. which is the easiest way of eX-
terminating game. II requires good
marksman under favorable conditions,
to bag more than two of these swift
birds at raise.

Don't bank on what your ancestors
did, to carry you through this world.
Some of the worst failures we now
have or have had in this section were
people who thought the world owed
them free living because their an
cestors We're big men. 1t is nice TO
look back and feel that your ancestors
We're the salt Of the earth, but what
the world to-day wants is men who can
make good Honest, clean. Industrious
men now have the call. and they will
continue to have it so long as the world
progresses.
1t is wonderful the hold Mr. Bryan
has on the plain people If ever our
people were satisfied with nomination.
it is the one made at Denver last week.
Mr.. Bryan will carry Maryland this
time as sure as shouting.
Governor Crothers got all the glory
out of the trip Of the Maryland dele
gates to Denver He got his good
roads plank inserted in the platform
and ne is happy. The Governor says
that we will all get together and carry
Maryland for Bryan and Kern.
1t looks to US as if Mr.. j. Harry
Covington, of Talbot County, will have
everything his own way for the Con-
gressional nomination in the First Dis
trict. MIR. Covington is a hustling
young Democrat a fighter from the
word 'go. and he will make his OPP
ponent sit up and take notice if he is
the standard-bearer Of the Democracy
of the First Congressional District.
This has been very hot week. and
many people here have longed for the
cooling breezes of the bay or ocean
1t is great pity we haveno convenient
way of getting to Public Landing to
spend an evening at a small fare for
transportation. 1t is thought that an
automobile line would pay during the
summer months. This would cause im-
provements to be made at the Landing
for the comfort of the crowds that
would go down.
Why not have a grand Bryan and
Kern ratification meeting at Ocean City
on the day Of the Democratic Con-
gressional convention II would give
the campaign good start in every
section of the First District and would
help along the candidate for Congress.
Gompers and Mitchell, the great labor
leaders, have announced their intention
of supporting Bryan and Kern. How's
that for starter? This is the first
time that Mr.. Bryan has had the sup
port of the great labor organizations
1t is simply a whole stack of straw to
show how the wind is blowing.
