FOUR GENERATIONS OF
ONE FAMILY Celebrate

At the home of Edmund Melvin on
Church Street, North Milford, last week
there were assembled four generations
of the Melvin family together with other
relatives, and a real celebration took
place among the family on Saturday,
August 31st. Those who represented
the generations were Edmund Melvin
age 80 years, William Melvin, son of
Edmund Melvin, age 81 years, Clarence
Melvin. son of William Melvin, age 25
years, and Edmund Melvin, Jr., son of
Clarence Melvin, age about months.
On Friday, August Both, the members
of the four generations had their photo
graphs taken, which were greatly de-
sired by their relatives and many of
their friends. On Saturday, August 3lst,
William Melvin and Clarence Melvin.
his son, celebrated their birthdays. This
event was also unusual, as it seldom
happens that father and son can cele-
brate their birthdays at the same time.
This added much to the pleasure of their
visit here. The four generations repre-
sent father, son, grandson and great
grandson.

DELAWARE STATE FAIR.

The Delaware State Fair, which opens
at Wawaset Park, Wilmington, next
Tuesday. to continue for four days,
September 10th, 11th. 18th and 18th, is
certain to be the biggest event of the
kind in the history of the State, or of
the Peninsula. Arrangements completed
to date make this absolutely certain.
The only thing that can seriously inter-
fere is rain, and the fair management
is optimistic enough not to worry over
that possibility.
Only those who have been in close
touch with the fair work the past few
months can realize the tremendous
amount of work that has been done.
Wawast Park has undergone complete
transformation, and the big steel and
concrete grandstand, erected at a cost
of about $25, 900, shows up strong in the
background of the numerous changes
and transformations that have been
made to the grounds.
The racing events planned for insure
splendid sport, and the various exhibits
will be much larger than ever before.
There will be numerous side attractions
and amusements, and the comfort and
of the thousands of visitors
will not be lost sight of for moment
In a word, the management of the
Delaware State Fair expect to establish
a high standard in the 1912 fair, and
from present indications their plans are
to be fully realized in every way.

WALKING THROUGH DELAWARE.

Lieutenant Elvid R. Hunt, of the
United States Army, who is stationed
in wilmington as the instructor for the
Delaware Militia, and who is accom-
panied by his wife, were in Milford on
Wednesday evening, as the guest of
Major W. E. Lank, and left on Thurs
day morning for Dover, where they
will remain over night as the guest of
Captain John Lefevre. They are max
ing a walking tour of Delaware, and
last Monday went by train to Selbyville,
where they passed the night and started
on Tuesday morning for Georgetown.
They report the walking was a pretty
tough proposition. as the sand was
heavy, and that there is no pretence of
walking paths for the public to follow
at the roadside between Selbyville and
Georgetown, but, that there was great
ly improved conditions from George
town to Milford. They start early in
the morning and seem to greatly enjoy
the trip, both being in excellent health.
They will arrive in Wilmington on Sat
urday. At another time Lieutenant
and Mrs. Hunt purpose to walk over
the counties, and look up the places of
in the history of Delaware
The experience of Lieutenant Hunt
with Delaware roads, is that better
roads are sorely needed. and that the
prosperity of Delaware is greatly re-
tarded for the lack of them.

LARGEST POULTRY PLANT IN STATE.

Z and ]. E. Davis are arranging to build
one of the largest poultry plants in the
State. The equipment will consist of a
200 foot laying house, go foot breeding
house. 100 foot double brOOding house,
incubator cellar, with one of the latest
style Candee mammoth incubators. AS

ing small fruits, and with energy and
push to-day ranks among the wealthiest
farmers of the State. Of late he has
taken fancy to poultry and has decided
to build on his beautiful 300-acre farm
one of the most up-to-date poultry plants
in the country Mr.. Newton left on last

plants in the West. Among others will

COMPANY B MEMBERS
give PLEASANT DANCE

The first dance of a series which will
be given by the members of Company
B, Organized Militia of Delaware, was
held last Friday evening in Armory Hall.
The hall was daintily decorated in flags,
rifles stacked, swords, and other instru-
ments used in military organizations.
The success of the affair was due directly
to the efforts of Lieutenants Cannon and
Marshall, who are in command of the
company. They are taking this means
of increasing interest in their Organiza-
ton, and to try to keep their men en-
thusiastic. While a large proportion of
the members of the company cannot
dance, arrangements have about been
completed whereby dancing lessons will
be given to those who wish to take them.
Music for the dance was furnished by
the Presbyterian Orchestra, and was
much appreciated by the dancers.
