COUNCIL GIVES SWEEPING
ORDER FOR MORE PAVING
WILL RAISE NORTH END OF MAIN
STREET TO BETTER GRADE.
VIII improve the Walk on Both Sides
of Main Street from North Street
North to GIenwood Avenue.

In line with their policy to have
better pavements and cutters and to
improve the approaches of Main
street and other streets, Smyrna
Town Council, upon the recommenda-
tion of the Street Committee, ordered
another batch of notices sent out
Friday evening. Now that the pave
ments and cutters on south Main
street are nearing completion, Coun-
Gil has directed its attention to the
north end of Main street and propose
to have a better walk on each side
of the street from North street to
GlenwOod Avenue Pursuant to this.
Chairman Robinson of the Street
Committee. had the street surveyed
with the result that a grade will be
established which will mean that some
pavements on the west side of the
street will be lowered as much as
eighteen inches and aised to grade
on the east side. Cutters, pavements
and curbing will nearly all have to
be relaid. Those who received
notices are: Mrs. James H. Cloud,
Mrs. Margaret Bailey, Michael Riley,
George D. Stevenson, William Green,
Mrs. Lucy Stockly, Theodore Sim
mons and William Norford. Along
with this improvement something
will probably be done to the DENLY
properties which are old and decayed
and really considered dangerous.
These old buildings may be con-
demned by the town and sold. The
Improvements to the standpipe were
also discussed and Chairman Robin
son of the Street Committee said that
he had started to fill in the road be-
tween the tower and the station and
if weather permitted he would soon
have things looking better. 1t was
decided to hold up the matter of or
dering a stone wall and iron fence
70 go around the standpipe until the
grading and terracing was completed.
Council has at last fully determined
that they will meet Mrs. Raymond
who has offered to donate a $1,000
fountain if the town will make GER
tain improvements. The Street Com
mittee will cooperate with her and
hasten the work to an early compile
tion. Council adjourned after accept
ing the bonds of Treasurer Reynolds
and Collector Crow and allowing the
bills in hand amounting to S645. SO.
The coal contract for the ensuing
year was renewed at the same

POLITICAL ACTIVITY IN KENT

Work of Selecting Good Candidates
For Legislature Now in Full Sway
The active work of selecting strong
candidates for the next Delaware
Legislature has begun. Not only are
the nominations to be carefully
watched but well-known candidates
are being brought out for the county
offices to obtain the active work of
the most influential party men. The
Republicans, it is said, will nomi-
nate County Treasurer Buckson for
the State 'senatorship from the
third District. Romulus Hopkins,
late of the Sixth district and present
deputy register in chancery and
clerk of the Orphans Court, will
probably be nominated by the Repub-
licans for this office. He is popular
throughout the county. Edgar E.
Clements, of Dover, is the first to
announce his candidacy for the DEM
ocratic nomination for clerk of the
Orphans Court. He enjoys a wide
acquaintance with farmers throughout
the county. He was to have been
appointed clerk of the Orphans Court
by the late Governor Reynolds, Dur
ing the close of the latter's ad-
ministratiOn, but just prior to the
time for this appointment the Gov
ernor named Mr.. Clements father
in-law as State Insurance Commits
sioner. Two appointments accord
ingly could not be made in. the same
family. The Republican leaders
are talking of getting John W. Caulk
formerly of the Fourth district, but
now of Dover, to run for sheriff.
He made an excellent record as
overseer of the poor. Democrats
] will probably run H. P. Hall, of
Smyrna, for State Senate.

Rainy Weather Interferes With Attend
ance But Pastor Gives Fine Sermons
A fair but appreciative congrega-
tion assembled at the Presbyterian
Church last Sunday. Pastor J. E.
Franklin seemed to be at his best
taking for his text, the first Psalm.
using the six verses in pointing out
the difference between a happy per
son and an unhappy person. He said
that every man feels desire to be
religious and at some time he intends
to give this subject his attention.
In passing, he noted the difficulty the
travelling salesman often experiences
in securing the attention of his Gus
tom r. This done he generally sue
ceeds in getting an order. But the
human heart is so perverted that it
seeks happiness where it cannot be
found. BLESSED is the man that
walketh not in the council of the un-
godly." This man gives his atten-
tlon to the word OF God and his de-
light is in the law of the Lord. He
is likened to a transplanted tree into
good and fruitful soil, bringing forth
his fruit in his season. He is a new
creature. 1.-THE ungodly are not
so'' He pointed out three stages:
walking, standing, sitting. All the
time getting further away from true
happiness. All who persisted in this
downward course "shall not stand in
judgment, " "for the way of the un-
gedly shall perish. THE theme
for the twilight service was, "A sea
without a Land. This Service was
not very we'll attended on account of

TO ENCOURAGE BERRY CULTURE
Prominent Growers Want Kent County
to Cope With Sussex in Growing
and Marketing Strawberries

o''N "ioi NCtlllS StIdWDCIIIGS
A plan to increase the strawberry
business of Kent county so that it
will outrival Sussex, or at least
make as good showing as that mar
velously successful county, vas put
into operation in Dover Friday even
ing. The proposition is to get all the
strawberry growers and other horti-
culturists together to decide upon
uniform paintings of early, inter
mediate and late Strawberries, to be
handled by the successful Delaware
Produce Exchange, which has widen
ed the markets for strawberries so
that a glut is now practically impos-
sible. There was a spirited prelim-
mary meeting of Kent farmers and
planters in the headquarters of the
Delaware State Board of Agricul-
ture, and after a full discussion with
the shipping authorities, it was de-
cided to begin the cooperative action
as to planting as soon as all the in
formation as to varieties can be Sc
cured. The produce exchange was
represented by Ebe Walter, Jr., who
impressed upon the meeting that
his experience had taught him that
the berry with the popular reputa-
tion, the variety that "sold itself, -
must be selected and the proper cul-
ture and fertilization ascertained to
bring it to full maturity and perfect
color. The exchange has been embar-
assed the past week by having to ship
mixed varieties" when their Gus
toners throughout the Middle West
and North were calling for Candy
or Klondyke berries. Yet, Profess
sOr c. S. Conwell, of the Seventh
district, and other experienced grow
ers, felt convinced that other varie-
ties like Bubach, Success, Tennessee
or even Chesapeake could be brought
to much better maturity and results.
1t is matter of inquiry and not ex-
hibitiOn declared Mr.. Walter and the
inquiries are for Candy or Klondyke.
He would rather have all of one va
riety and be able to grade them and
ship them by the carload, one car to
contain seventy-fve crates of xxx.
seventy-five of xxx, seventy-five Of
Xxx, and so on. He declared tnat
this would bring fancy prices from
those who would have none other than
fancy fruit. ''People nowadays, =
declared the exchange representative,
must know what they are getting
and they are willing to pay extra to
be sure of this. - The meeting
closed with resolution by Professor
COnwell authorizing Secretary Wesley
Webb to ascertain and compile the
consensus of opinion, and to notify
the State Board of Agriculture there
of. as to what early, intermediate
and late strawberries may be most
profitably grown in this county on a
large scale. The general feeling
was that the way to a great early
fruit business had been opened by
the Delaware Produce Exchange
Several farmers present exhibited
their exchange checks, showing re-
ceipts of from five to eight cents per
quart for strawberries, net. E. A.
Evans was authorized to organized a
branch of the exchange at Cheswold.

JUNE DROP AFFECTS PEACHES

Orchards Will Not Yield Near So Well
on Account of Cold Weather
Townsend, June 4.-The June drop
is already noticeable to an alarming
extent in many peach orchards.
Trees a few days ago which were
breaking down on account of being
overloaded, to-day only have about
half a crop. The late frOsts and
extremely cold weather are said to
be responsible for so many peaches
falling Some say that the young
trees will yield largely but that the
old trees will not bear half so we'll.

How long before dinner?" he asked, as if he had
been thinking of nothing else.
Five minutes after you win the MATCH, some

him a sudden jerk forward.
A ND such jerk l had not supposed until then

caught him about the waist, and with the strength
of two ordinary men swung hlm up clear OF the
ground shoulder high, and then suddenly stepped
from under him, letting him fall with thud that
shook every bone in his body. Before Jean could

Get up, or you won't be in time for dinner!
But poor Jean could neither get up nor even cry
'nough Two relentless knees holding him vlsel1ke
had squeezed the breath and courage out OF hm
completely. His shoulders were flat on the ground,
and the factor seeing that he was helpless, made the
lumberman stop and declared him the winner. And

most crestfallen in all the North. If ever man
