WAYFARER'S NOTE BOOK
NOTEWORTHY EXCEPTION.

Usually a man who has fought his
way from obscurity to prominence IN
the commercial world dies and leaves
his business to children who are un-
able or unwilling to size up to the
enviable opportunity that comes TO
them and who permit the business to
go to the bow-wows or, better still,
to pass out of the control of the
( family. There are exceptions, but that
is the rule. A noteworthy exception
was Edward II. Brennan. He came
here a little over thirty years ago and
started in the furniture business.
When he died he not only was one Of
the most prominent and progressive
men in the commercial field in De-
aware, but also president of the Gem
tTal National Bank in this city.
Edward II. Brennan died on August
%, 1909. There were pessimists in
this community who did not hesitate
to predict that the business he had
been so long building would pass out
of the family and into the hands Of
strangers. They knew that Mr. Bren-
nan had two sons, one his namesake,
Edward H. Brennan, quiet-manner-
ed. decent young fellow. who was
associated with his father in bu5i-
ness, but who never had attempted
to outshine him, and the other VIII
liam II. Brennan, who had gone to
Fordham University in New York
and, subsequent to his graduation, had
gone on the road. In the minds Of
] fha fesfe coz h.
bright side of anything, those two
young men, one now 30 years old and
the other 26, in all likelihood would
fail to size up to the situation. Events
/ have gone to show how badly they
were mistaken. Young Edward H.
Brennan, Jr., representing the estate,
stepped into his fathers place as the
head Of one of the largest commercial
businesses in this city. He then was
only 2S years old, but he took hold
of the job with a seriousness of pur-
pose that has resulted in the busi-
ness being larger today than II ever
was in it's history. In that he has
been assisted by his brother, who was
only % years old when his father
died. At the instance of his elder
brother he left the road and came
back to Wilmington to do what ne
could to enlarge the family's CONNER
cial interests. which centres in Nos.
219 and 221 Market street.
Nowadays the two enterprising sons
of Edward II. Brennan may be seen
on the job every day. Both are
determined that the commercial house
built by their father shall remain
a monument to him and, beneath
fostering care in which sound busi-
ness principles and filial devotion are
blended, grow larger and larger as
time goes by.
(. Nor was the Brennan influence that
had played such an important part
in the affairs of the Central National
Bank lost to that institution. Ed
ward II. Brennan. Jr.. was a little too
young to succeed his father as presi-
dent Those interested in the destinies
of the institution did the next best
thing They elected young Brennan
a director. He attends the meetings
regularly and those who have seen
him sitting at the table surrounded by
men much older than himself have
told the Wayfarer that he has demon
! strated time and again that he has IN
! herited much Of the sound financial
r wisdom that was possessed by his
father.

BASEBALL AND sTRENTOsTTY.

There is strenuosity in baseball as il
is played by juveniles in New York
city. The Wayfarer has a little friend
over there. He is twelve years old.
Last week the youngster went with
his home team to Maspeth, lively
section of the city, to play a game for
the championship in the 12-year-old
class. He has sent to the Wayf-rer a
bitter complaint that will be appre-
ciated by all juveniles who have ven
tured into strange territory in search
of honors on the diamond. 1t is as fol-
lows;
Thursday our baseball team went
TO Maspeth. We were defeated by a
score Of to /. We did not have our
regular team. The week after Easter
they are coming out to Flushing. I'll
bet you S25 that we beat them. Over
in Maspeth It was a tough bunch.
When We started for home II was
worse than a Pittsburgh game. They
hit us with stones. bottles and old
shoes We could not lick them be-
cause there was about one hundred
toughs."
Reading between the lines. there is
lot of juvenile bitterness tied up in
that brief complaint.
