Yes, sir: it's
going to rain, surely

Somebody once said that
a little forethought is
worth a bundle of apollo
gies.
Last spring, during one Of our
raincoat sales, a man remarked
that be had been threatening to
buy a raincoat for two years; but
he always waited until it rained
and then he didn't have time. So
at last he anticipated the weather.
The Point
here Is this: we came across
some excellent raincoats about a
week ago that could be sold by us
At $3.50
Most men will like them be-
cause they are not the flimsy kind.
They are made of cotton twill
outside, plaid inside, with rubber
between. Seams are stitched and
cemented. Yokes are lined. Arm
pits are ventilated. Models are
belted.

CHORUS Dimes ON
SECOND BIRTHDAY
Large Din ingroom Filled With
Members and Friends, Who
Make Merry.

Passers by Tenth and Tatnall streets
last evening wondered at the unwontet
illumination of the Charles restaurant
and the songs that floated over the tran
SONS from the crowd of diners that fillet
every seat at every table; until they re-
membered or learned that the Wilmington
com munity chorus was then and there
gat hered to celebrate the Second ami
versary of its founding.
rhe dining room had been secured
through the good offices OF w. j. McCork-
ii, al,. the manager, and was turned over
t. .,slies of the chorus committee at the
close OF the days business at eight clock
wnen the regular mattresses were re-
placed by the volunteers from chorus
ranks, who had all in readiness shortly
after $50.
An appetizing menu was thereupon
served, beginning with grape fruit and
going right through to after dinner mints,
courses. Annie Rooney" "Old Black
joe and Annie Laurie" entertained
the company with tales of 'sGrandfather $
Clock, Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party
and other familiar tales of when You
and | were Young, Maggie" Mr.. Snow
White also. obliged with harmonica solos
and Harry Barnhart sang coupla solos.

there isn't a song by that name, there

Mrs. W s. Hilles explained that, con-
fronted with the task of selecting a toast

Of only one person-herself-c on
Councilman James +. Mearns, as repre-
senting the city, Miss f. Ethel Wilson, for
,he chorus, w. Kirk Brice, identified with
she New York community choruses, who
paid glowing tribute to the leader.
Harry Barnhart then spoke in an i'm
presslve way of the community Chorus
work In the abstract, and that of Viii

ample of the realization of his earlier
dreams and theories on Social Psychology.
Brief remarks were also made by Fred
Watson and Manager McCorkindale
and Judge Daniel i. Hastings wound up
thu oratory with graceful tribute to the
occasion.
Letters of regret from Percy Mackaye
of New York and Mrs NJ A. Burrelle of
Buffalo were read by the secretary.
The strains of .'Auld Lang Svne''
brought the proceedings to a close, about
Il.30, after rising vote of thanks TO the
devoted band of mattresses, who richly
carried liberal tips although they did not

PORT DEPOSIT FOLK
Continued from paxe /

Tho river il open up toward Mccall .
Ferry darn and all the ice that has come
down stream this spring is still gorged in
front Of Port Deposit. Old timers who
have seen many terrible Rorpes there hold
to the hope that hard rain will yet come
with freshet to break up the ice below
| the town and thus give impetus to the vast
| field of ice piled up waiting only for an out
| let to the sea- 1t WAS to artihcially create
! this outlet that the citizens called upon
the government to bomb the ice below
| yesterday, but after whole day of hard
bombing the ice is all still there and ap-
parently still very tight and hard.
One native laughed last night and said !:
"All the bombing in the world wont mako
that ice get out Of here till it gets ready
WORK OF THE AvIAToRs.
The aviators from the Aberdeen proving
ground resumed their bombing below Port
Deposit yesterday afternoon with vary
ing sizes of explosives. Natives lined the
shores and watched. but the thrills were
few and the effect disappointing in the
extreme A single De Haviland plane,
with four men, including Licutenants
Rcna Stadler and Lester j. Sweeney,
flew over the ice at intervals and dropped
the highest explosives made Of INT upon
the ice from varying heights. These
bombs ranged in weight from 130 to 500
pounds. Only one of the large ones was
dropped, however. People strained their
ewes to see the explosives start from the
sky and watched for the effect. These
bombs were all set with time fuses and
most of them waited until after breaking
through the ice to explode. But one large
one went off Just as it touched the ice and
kicked up more of rumpus than any
of the others. Most of them broke
straight through the ice and exploded with
a roar that seemed long time echoing to
those on shore and on the bridges. When
the big one went off just above the Penn
sylvania railroad bridge shout of ap-
proval went up from those around. This
bomb tore hole about 30 feet in diam
eter in the ice, but most of the openings
made were less than fifteen feet across
Two. three or four bombs were carried |
at time by the plane and the crowds |
watched the horizon eagerly for 1t as 1T |
came from the base below Aberdeen. 1t /
took the machine about an hour to go |
there, load and get back. Coming up |
stream it would fly past the Pennsylvania |
railroad bridge, wheel around and go /
downstream. Then suddenly IT would let |
loose the first bomb and then the Others, !
one at a time. Then il would climb high |
in the air and go on back to Aberdeen /
for more.
After all the bombing the scene in front /
OF Havre dc Grace, where the ice seems
tightest, has changed none worth speak
ing Of Only the holes made by the bombs
are noticeable. Some of the natives VEN
tured to walk out on the ice clear to these
holes yesterday and some of them re-
ported that many fish had been killed by |
the powder. Havre dc Grace people seem
not the least alarmed. The water is open
Just below the town and they think this
ready outlet viii save them when the ice
rishes downstream. Still there is no tell
ing what gorge of ice may do.

APPEAL FROM AWARD.
Argument Heard in Case of Parents of
Jacob Rudnick vs.. White Brothers

In the Superior Court this morning
argument was heard on the appeal Of
Frssi Rndnick and Lena Rudnick against
White Brothers, employers, from an
award made by the Industrial Accident
Board Of Delaware.
The decision of the Industrial Accident
Beard denied them compensation for the
death of their son, Jacob Rudnick, aged
Is, who was killed while in the employ
Of White Brothers. Compensation was
denied on the ground that they were not
dependents, notwithstanding they insisted
that all the wages Of their son was turned
into the home for the support of the
family. Evidence in the hearing before
the board caused it to arrive at the con-
ciusion that they were not dependent
upon their son for support, although they
might have received from him the wages
paid him for his work
Philip L. Garrett represented the appel
lants and William S. Hilles the other side.
Decision was reserved.
