Everyone Should Help
The China Famine Fund

The matter of TIE China Famine
continues to hold the attention of our
country and we are glad to know that
Pocomoke City shares in the interest
manifested in this great work. The
conditions in China are still very SER
ious and there is little hope of a bet
terment until the August crops are
harvested. America is doing good
work In her effort to alleviate the suf-
fering but still greater effort must be
made If the desired result is accom-
plished. A move is on foot in POGO
moke City to help in this worthy
cause and it is hoped that every citi-
zen will do his or her part in the
premise. If you are called upon to
AeSist do not turn a deaf ear to the
appeal but give freely to the cause.
In another column we publish the lat
est Publicity Bulletin concerning the
conditions. Read it and we are sure
that yod will respond literally.

Ordinance Establishes
Pocon,oke Cleanup Week

By dodgers printed at this office the
Mayor and Council of Pocomoke City
are calling the attention of our citiz-
ems to Ordinance No. 38, which. was
recently passed by the Mayor and
Council and afterward published in
this paper, which establishes a Clean
up-Week for Pocomoke City. The
time for this cleaning up is from May
30th to June 18th, and then again
from October 1st to October 18th, lat
whit', times you are requested to
Gle all property of waste, trash
discarded materials, etc. Also weeds
and noxious or useless plants. A pen
atty is imposed for failing to obey the
ordinance ard in view of this fact the
attention of our readers is called to
the same. Many will clean up of their
own accord but it is hoped that all
will comply with the ordinance, thus
making everything accord with the
beautiful streets which adorn or city.

er occurred in our town. For several
weeks these young people have been
doing the practice act and we are in
formed that they have program that
will surely meet the approval of the
public. Our people will remember
that an entertainment of this charac-
ter was given by the young peorle Of
the town few years ago and it prov
ed rousing success. 1t is said that
this will be even better than their
former effort, as new life has been in
jected into the cast. Comedy, jazz,
blackfaced minstrels, funny songs ami
side-splitting jokes will abound and
the entertainment will be one of real
humor from start to finish.
The proceeds from the entertain
ment will go toward the base ball en-
terprise which was recently started
here and which has grown to such ar
enormous size. Many persons have
not contributed to this enterprise at
all and this will give all an opportu-
nifty to dc so and at the same time
spend u pleasant evening.
The price of admission will be $1.00
and you are sure to receive your mon
ey's worth. Tickets are now on sale
at the store of the |. H. Merrill Com
pany or Market street and if you
want 4 good seat you should make
your reservations early, as the tickets
are being sold very rapidly. Get in
on the ground floor and help these
young men, thus helping the town to
build up a permanent base ball enter
prise which will mean so much to its
welfare.
