REAL ESTATE SALES

The lack of houses for rent in Mil
ford has caused the sale of several
small properties. That seems to be
the only way people can secure a
home to live in during 1920
This week Mrs. Lydia C. Jump has
bargained for the sale of her house
at the corner of North and Third
Streets, North Milford. The terms are
private. She has several would-be pur-
chasers for the property She is ne
gotiating for the sale of another res
idence at the corner of Church and
Second Streets, North Milford, but that
has not been agreed upon as yet.
Several building lots in South Mil
ford, which were bought by Wesley
Smith and others, will be built upon
during the coming season, as soon as
bricks can be secured for foundations.
The Building Loan in Milford has
applications for more money than it
has, but the stockholders have ar
ranged to supply the demand, as each
applicant desires to build a home. and
it is especially desired that this effort
should be encouraged, and these will
also have to await the supplying Of
bricks for foundations.

OLD CAMDEN CAMP
. MAY BE SUSPENDED

Whether Camden Camp will be con-
tinued or not after this year is a
matter of much speculation among
those interested in the project, either
financially or otherwise. The camp,
situated in one of the most beautiful
groves in the State, has been conduct
ed with varied success the past twelve
years.
Sundays services at Camden Camp
closed the three weeks meeting, and
unless a sufficient number of persons
sign to take tents for another year it
is possible that the annual camp,
which has now been for twelve years
under one management, with Rev. E.
c. Sunfield in charge, will become a
thing of the past
Apparently because of some unjust
criticism of the management of the
camp as to expenses, ETC., Mr.. Sun
field made a statement to the after
noon audience Sunday in which he
laid the facts plainly before the peo-
pie. He told them that the future of
the camp depended entirely upon those
who might want to continue the camp
for next year, and that to insure such
camp sufficient signers would have to
be made by September 27; otherwise
the tents and all other equipment
would be sold.

ware have been awarded scholarships

ers. Several weeks ago it was an
nounced that Pierre S. dupont, through
the Service Citizens of Delaware, Of
fered go scholarships to Delaware wo-
men for this course. The purpose is

WAR TIME PROHIBITION
EXTENDS TO NOVEMBER
IT WILL THEN Be UP TO CONGRESS AND
PRESIDENT WILSON TO SAY IF A
WET SPELL is TO COME.
THE WAR ACT IN FORCE
UNTIL The PRESIDENT ISSUES HIS PEACE
PROCLAMATION AND THE SENATE
RATIFIES THE PEACE TREATY.

Secretary Baker announced on tues
day last that the actual demobilization
Of the army-that is, all combat units
would be practically completed by
the last OF October. He pointed out,
however. that after rehabilitation
there would remain many details in
volving the care and disposition OF
surplus army property, the compile
tion of permanent records, and the
care of those in hospitals that would
require for some time the attention
Of many officers and enlisted men. In
the meantime, the Secretary added,
the units of the mobile army would be
busted with plans for the future.
The announcement means that war
time prohibition will remain in force
at least until the end of October. in
stead of the end of September. 1t
will be noted that in his reference to
rehabilitation he refers especially to
"combatant troops. Whether the
fact that certain non-combatant units
are to be retained after the demobili-
zation of the combat troops means
that wartime porhibition will con-
tinue until the latter are also demOb-
ilized is a question a lot of people in
Washington are trying to answer The
Secretary did not mention the prohi-
bition question in his prepared inter-
view. In any event, the end of war
time prohibition cannot come until af-
ter the President issues his peace
proclamation, and this, in turn, must
await the ratification of the Peace
Treaty bV the Senate

CATCH SwINDLERs AND THIEVES

Rosa Frink and Mary Miller came
to Milford with the Carnival Company,
which has been holding forth in this
town on the grounds adjoining the
base ball grounds in South Milford.
They had a tent where they profess
ed to tell fortunes, but did not con-
fine themselves to this line, especially
during the day. The women in a
team passed thru the surrounding
country telling fortunes to whoever
would listen. This is contrary to the
laws of Delaware. Stopping Frank D..
Watson, near Milford, to inquire the
way to Milton, they picked his pocket
and got thirty dollars from him. He
missed the money in a few minutes
after they drove on, and looking up
the road he saw that they had stopped
to fix the harness, and there he over
took them and compelled them to re-
turn the money. They then proceeded
to Milton and entering Stevens store
one woman engaged him in conversa-
tion, while the other sneaked to the
safe and took $130 in paper money.
They left and returned to Milford.
Mr.. Stevens missed the money and
came here to look for the money and
entered a charged against them be-
for Esquire Hendrixson, who took the
matter up; but before action could
be taken, Mr.. Stevens went to George
town where he laid the matter Before
Deputy Attorney-General Layton, who
had a warrant issued for the arrest of
the women. They were arrested and
taken to Georgetown, where they were
given a hearing. They returned the
money to Mr.. Stevens and promised
to Immediately leave Delaware. They
came to Milford, gathered up the hus-
band of the Miller woman, and it
is supposed that they obeyed the
agreement to leave Delaware. It is
well in circulating in crowds, espec-
tally where there are strange people,
to be very careful when they become
a jostling crowd, or very friendly. You

APPOINTMENTS EXPLAINED
APPONTEES SERVE UNTIL JUNE NEXT
WHEN SUCCESSORS ARE ELECTED.

A number of persons recently ap-
pointed by the Kent County Board OF
Education are hesitating to accept the
appointments at the hands OF this
body or have simply refused to serve.
This seems TO be for one or the other
of two reasons, namely, % antago-
nism to the new School Code in gen
eral. or % a feeling that the powers
Of selecting their own representatives
for conducting local school affairs has
been taken from the people. In regard
to the last mentioned reason it should
be said that these appointments by
the County Board of Education are
provided for the present year only,
and are made simply to tide over the
time until next June when Boards OF
Trustees will be elected by the various
school attendance districts very much
as they have always been elected. The
County Board of Education itself was
appointed by the Governor for the
same reason and to serve until Board
could be elected on the third Satur-
day in June. 1920. This election of
the County Board is in the hands Of
the local boards of Trustees, the pres
ident Of the local board of Trustees
presiding at the election and the two
other members acting as judges OF
the election. 1t will thus be seen that
the duties of the local Boards are very
important and far reaching, the idea
being to put into the hands of the
people the right that should be exer-
cised by them, namely, the choosing
Of their own local as well as county
representatives in school matters.
1t has been the policy of the Coun-
ty Board to reappoint those who have
already been elected by the people.
A refusal to accept on the part of the
leading persons of the various school
districts cannot but result in taking
away from those districts the power
which is expressly granted to them
by the Code. The cooperation of the
local boards on one hand and the
superintendent of schools acting for
the County Board on the other, is alb
solutely necessary to the efficient run
ming of the schools in the various dis
tricts. 1t is hoped that in the light
of this many persons who have al
ready refused to serve may reconsider
their action and many accept the ap-
pointment until the regular election
can be held next June.
On August the 18th a survey will
be made of the school buildings of
the county The work will be done
by DR.. Strayer and DR.. Englehart of
Columbia University, accompanied by
Supt. Holloway. The report resulting
from this survey will be the guide for
the building program in this county
for the next four years. It is hoped
that the local boards may cooperate
in this work to the extent of opening
the school buildings on the days spec
flied for the inspections. The days
will be announced later.
On Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week, August 18th and 18th, an exam
nation of teachers was held in the
Assembly Chamber of the State House
at Dover. This examination was given
for teachers who are already in SER
vice or for teachers who have attend
ed a summer school this year.

GROWERS ARE LOSERS
BY SHIPPING EMBARGO PLACED ON ALL
FREIGHT OWING TO STRIKE.

The peach and cantaloupe market
in lower Delaware has been affected by
an embargo placed on all freight by
the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad, as a result of a strike.
The embargo keeps the Delaware fruit
from reaching the New Egland mar
kets, where, under nomal conditions.
a great amount of II is shipped, prin-
cipally to Boston, Mass. This has up
set the market in the State.
Produce shipments from the lower
part of the State indicate that some
changes over last years conditions
have taken place. Last year for the
same length of time 72.724 baskets of
peaches moved over the Delaware Di-
vision and its branches for northern
and western points This year, up to
and including last Saturday, only A.
POS baskets of peaches have been han
died.
This year 4,7O4,312 quarts of berries,
including blackberries, strawberries
and huckleberries, were handled from
May IA to the close of the season.
Last year, from May II to the close
of the season. 9.349,525 quarts of ber-
ries were handled. This shows that
this years crop was only about so per
cent of the crop last season. The
shortage is not due to any less yield
per acre, but is due to the fact that
there was less acreage of berries this
year. Owing to the high prices re-
ceived last year for tomatoes, many
of the farmers planted tomatoes in
stead of berries. And as the tomato
crop has been a failure, the farmers
have lost out both ways. It is prob
able that next year berries will again
come to the front
Last year. for the same period of
time, 5S2,6O3 baskets of apples passed
north over the Delaware Division and
its branches, while this year there
have been only 404,212 baskets of ap-
pies. A large acreage of late potatoes
however, is expected to bring the yield
for this year to much higher figures.
That the peninsula grows enormous
quantities of white potatoes is evident
from the great quantity of them han
died over the railroad. Last year over
105,969 barrels were handled over the
Delaware Division and its branches,
while this year 1922 barrels have
DCeu Aduuitu loI the same leUELu OF
time. The N. Y, p & N. line has al
ready handled 14,247 carloads of the
potatoes, while the highest single day
this year was July 4, when 591 car
loads of potatoes were shipped Fifty
per cent of the potatoes reach the
western markets.
Owing to the shortage of ice, much
of the fruit formerly shipped in re-
frigerator cars is now shipped in ven
tilator cars. This prevents the fruit
being shipped to as distant points as
is possible with the refrigerator cars
and has caused the shippers much in
convenience. The railroad authorities
canvassed the situation recently and
estimated a shortage of 23O cars of
ice
The first carload of watermelons for
the season passed over the Delaware
railroad Monday. It was shipped
from East Newmarket, Md. Grapes
are also being shipped now. Ship
ments have already been made from
Cheswold, Seaford and Viola.
