"BARGAIN DAY" FOR SMYRNA

Some Merchants Believe 1t Can Be
Made Profitable Day For All.
Falling in line with other towns
of the State, w. G. Roe, one of our
hustling merchants has started the
ball rolling for the establishing of
what will be termed a Bargain
Day" in Smyrna, one day in week
when goods are sold at specially
low, rock bottom price. He has set
aside every Wednesday as will be
seen in his advertisement of special
prices in another column. Other
merchants will probably adopt the
same day and if generally indulged
in, might work to the advantage of
the whole town. The Bargain Day"
is no new innovation. Wide-awake
towns everywhere are adopting the
plan as a trade builder and it is
meeting with great success.

BOAT LINE DISCUSSED At
BOARD OF TRADE MEETING
TWO PROPOSITIONS SUBMITTED
AND CONSIDERED LAST EVENING
One Was From A. E. Jardine, Former
Manager of Line and the Other
by President Taylor of Company

ny EICSiOCiit dIiOi VI ONlIipdIf
A special meeting of the Smyr-
ma Board of Trade was held last
evening to consider the propositions
for establishing boat line in Smyr-
ma. President LeFevre presided and
considerable interest was shown in
the matter. Two propositions were
received. One was from A. E. Jar
dine of Atlantic City, former mana
ger of the Smyrna line but now
general manager of the Atlantic
City transportation Company. Mr..
Jardine offered to take and run the
line if the people of Smyrna would
raise $4,000 and in the event of a
local company being formed, he
would fall in back of local organ
ization and take a good block of
stock in it. The other proposition
was from President Taylor of the
Smyrna Transportation and Manu-
featuring Company, who resides in
Wilmington. Mr.. Taylor made the
Board of Trade proposition to sell
the Steamer frankie, Smyrna Land
ing Wharves and properties togeth-
er with the franchises, etc., for
$40, 600. Some discussion was given
to the two propositions and finally
the matter was turned over to the
Boat Committee of which Charles
Howell LeFevre is the chairman.
The latter will get into further com
munication with Mr.. Jardine anC
Mr.. Taylor. The most important
question that concerns the Board oi
Trade is to get our capitalists in
terested to the point of investing
their money in steamboat enter
prise. The opinion prevails tha
close corporation is far better thar
big, unwieldy one, and if feS
would assume the obligation boa
line, it is believed, can be operate
at a paying proposition. At an
event there is much interest mani
tested in seeing boat line betwee
Smyrna and Philadelphia and tn
t opening of good spling weather an
= spring trade makes such an industr
all the more desirable.

ORDER GOOD SATURDAY NIGHT
Alderman Grow Put on Two Extra
Police With Good Results

HOiIC6 WIN 1OOQ h6SultS
The concensus of opinion is that
the order was better in Smyrna Sat-
urday night than it has been for
months. Answering the appeals of
some citizens on north Main street,
Council at an adjourned session,
summoned Alderman Grow and
Policeman Turner before them to
talk over this situation as well as
the automobile law. Saturday night
Alderman Grow put on two extra
police who under the direction OF
Chief-of-P Police Benjamin W. Turner
kept a close vigilance. Council
had ordinances printed defining
clearly the law against loafing and
lettering on street corner and public
places with the result that good be-
havior was reported everywhere.
Residents onsnorth Main street as
we'll as those residing in other parts
of the town are delighted over the
activity displayed by our police de-
partment and hope their efforts Will
continue until drunkenness and
rowdyism on our streets are entirely
broken up.
