A Correction /!

The Transcript is not knowingly in
the habit of turning a jest upon itself.
A week or so ago in its write up of
Mr.. Joseph Heldmyer's Grocery store
the ingenious typo-or the laundering
scribe said that Mr.. Heldmyer's big
egg trade even reached the total of 81
dozen eggs received in a single day,
and then added-"that's something to
cackle aboutr'
The joke is on The Transcript for
making an error of only 1000 percent!
So we will apologize for slandering Mr..
Heldmyer's trade by making the num-
ber 540 dozen eggs in one day,

MIDDLETOWN BOY AWARDED

Laurels for another Blue Hens Chick
ahda Middletown boy at that The
Transcript gives below an account,
taken from the Newark Post, of the
very creditable record record made at
Delaware College by Mr.. W. l. Brock
son, a son of our worthy townsfolk, Mr..
and Mrs. Samuel j. Brockson.
''W. l. Brockson, of this years
graduating class, has been award
ed a research scholarship at Ames
University, the agricultural college
OF Iowa MIR. Brockson is student
in the agricultural department. He
specialized in agronomy. Last year
he won the Trustee prize of $50
given to the student maintaining in
all respects the best standing during
the first three years of his college
course"
While felicitating Vr. Brockson upon
his well-merited achievement, we also
wish to express our admiration of his
wisdom in electing an agricultural course
in preference to one in any of the much
overdone professions.
Teachers in agronomy, or in horti-
culture, are in great demand at fancy
salaries-the market for such is never
overstocked, while the ranks of lawyers,
doctors, and engineers of every class,
are crowded, and their earnings scant
enough as rule
Mr.. Brockson is in everyway a very
worthy, upright young man, and The
Transcript not only wishes his career
may be a highly successful one, but il
is also assured that it will be.
