PENINSULA EDITORS
ENTERTAINED

The dinner given on MonGay night BY
Wilmington's Chamber of Commerce TO
the editors of the Delmarv!an Peninsula
was a highly successful and altogether
delightful affair. The hosts were roya4
hosts, sparing no trouble or expense,
for the comfort and entertainment of
their guests from the momeuc OF their
arrival on Monday, until their departure
on Tuesday afternoon The dinner on
Monday night at the Hotel dupont was
of course, the piece de resistance of the
occasion. About $50 persons were gath
cred at the board-some 81 editors from
Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, and
an hundred or more of Wilmington
business and professional men. Josia
Marvel Esq, as President of the Cham
Der of Commerce, welcomed the guests,
voicing the purpose of the occasion,
viz: to bring the people of the PENN
sula closer together in their business
and social relations and promote the
development of our splendid resources.
Judge Gray, acting as Toastmaster for
the evening, emphasized the same
thought, especially dwelling uponn the
fact that the topography of this Pen
insula called for its unity in develop
people, has led to their social friendli
ness. Speeches then followed from diff
ferent sections of the Peninsula, many
OF them very frank and suggestive in
their comments, but all of them souni
ing the slogan of a Greater Peninsula,
with Wilmington las rts natural an
therefore rightful Metropolis. The mid
night chimes had rung before the ban
queters left the tablets, after an even
ing of delightful feasting, entertaining
and informing oratory, and mutually
helpful conference. On Tuesday morning
a committee of the CHAMBER of Com
merce took a number of the visitors il
automobiles to various points of inter
est in the city and its suburbs and back
to the Hotel DUPONT for luncheon.
Before the editors left for home they
were enthusiastic in their expressions of
appreciation of their royal entertain
ment and in their opinion that the
Chamber of Commerce had done a big
wise thing for the future, not only of
Wilmington but of the entire Psnin-
sula.
