BOND ELECTION TO BORROW
$4,000 WINS UNANIMOUSLY
REFERENDUM VOTE REVEALS
81 AND NO VOTES AGAINST
Smyrna Town Council Will Expend
Part of the $4,000 On Paying OFF
Street Notes and Balance on Work

The referendum vote taken in
Smyrna last Thursday afternoon to
bond the town for $4,000 to pay off
street notes and to resurface South.
Mt. Vernon and other streets, carried
unanimously. There was little or no
interest taken for the reason there
was no contest and everybody took it
for granted that none would oppose AN
opportunity to provide way for the
town OF Smyrna to meet its lust obli-
cations to say nothing of the need to
make necessary repairs to the maca-
dam streets above mentioned. Hardly
more than a dozen property owners
went to the polls and as each property
owner was entitled to one vote for
every dollar he paid for 1920 taxes,
the vote reached 81 votes easily and
could have been made a larger figure
had our citizens turned out. With ap-
proximately half of the $4,000 to be
borrowed already needed to pay off
outstanding notes it will be seen that
little is left for new work. Smyrna
Town Council, it is understood, will
endeavor to expend the balance judi
ciously to resurface South street, at
least from Main to Delaware streets,
and to fill in the holes on South Main
street from the brick pavement to
Lake Como. Should any funds be re-
naming or should Council see any
way to .resurface Mt. Vernon street it
will be done. The election which was
quiet was held between the hours of
two and five o'clock. H. Eugene Ma
brey was inspector; William R. Smith
and John P. Hudson were judges and
Maynard Griffith and Robert L. Cum
minis were clerks.

entertains Juniors and Seniors

-
At the end of the seventh inning of
the game at Dover last Wednesday
afternoon between the Wesley Col
leglate institute nine and the unde-
teated Smyrna High School team, the
Dover lads left the field and refused
to go on with the game because a fy
down the third base line by C. Glenn
ent was called a foul ball by the UNI
plre. After waiting the usual length
OF time for the Dover nine to take the
field, Umpire Jacobs forfeited the
game to Smyrna. When the Dover
lads left, the score stood to 8 in favor
OF the Smyrna boys. This game
makes the seventh straight for the To-
cal boys. Pryor pitched excellent ball
for the Red and Blue tanning four
men and holding them to four hits in
seven innings. Smyrna boys again
showed their ability to play ball when
they jouneyed down to FELTON, on Fri
day and played them a shut-out game.
The score was 5 to 0. 1t looks as if
the Smyrna boys are good for county
champions.-On Monday night the
Sophomores gave most delightful
party to the Juniors and Seniors. The
club house was decorated with dog
wood and wild honeysuckle. A fine
program was rendered by the Sopho-
more Class. Piano Solo, Miss Ade-
laide Stevens; recitation, Miss Eliza
Cook; Shadow play, "The Romance of
Mary Jane," Erma Pratt, Everett

Miss Doris Nichols, leader. Games
were played by the guests present.
After the games, refreshments were
served-On Saturday afternoon con-
ference was held in the rooms of the
State Board of Education at Dover.
The purpose of the meeting was to
arrange fo County Track Meet to be
held at Dover on Saturday, May IA.
Ransom Nichols went down to repre-
sent the Smyrna High and came back
with much information regarding the
meet. Three officials of Smyrna were
chosen at this meeting. Prof. Schantz,
chairman, DR.. Corley, judge at the
finish, and Rev. R. P. Nichols, award
er of badges. Smyrna hopes to en-
roll so students to represent them at
Dover. Let all students get into this
and see if we can't come out on top,
as is our usual custom.-Miss Alice
Watson, of Laurel, a former student
of Smyrna High, gave as a visit on
Thursday afternoon. We are always
glad to welcome back former students.

FIRST STRAWBERRIES ARE HIGH
Shipment From Marion, Somerset
County, Md, Bring so Cents a Quart

Shipment From Marion, Somerset
County, Md, Bring so Cents a Quart
The first strawberries shipped to
northern markets from Somerset
county, Nd, were made last week, and
commanded high prices. The berries
were shipped from Marion, the largest
strawberry center in the world, and it
is said the first crate sold for $500,
which is equivalent to so cents a
quart. Thirty-four crates left Mar
ion Monday and sold for prices rang
ing between SO and $13, which COM
pares favorably with last years open
ing market. 1t is said the berries in
1920 was SIC, and that the average
the season through was So. Because
of the shortage in the berry crop it is
thought there is a possibility OF last
years record prices being maintained
this season. In 1920 as much as 80
cars of strawberries were shipped
from Marion in single day. The re-
frigerator cars in which the berries are
shipped each have a capacity of 24O
crates. This means the record daily
shipment in crates was 21,6OO, which
contained 691 200. quarts of berries.

KENT FARMERS TALK HARVEST
Appoint Committee to Confer With
Local Threshers and Talk Over Rates

Appoint Committee to Confer With
Local Threshers and Talk Over Rates
A meeting of the Kent County Farm
Bureau was held in Dover Thursday
afternoon in the Century Club, when
matters of vital interest to the farm
ers relative to the coming harvest sea-
son were discussed, including the
threshing problem. There has been
reports that threshermen would de-
mand eight and ten cents a bushel for
threshing wheat this year, which to
the farmer seemed to be out of reason
from the fact of profitable short
crop. The threshermen were invited
to attend the meeting, but only one
was present. There was general
discussion on the subject and while
no definite amount was agreed upon it
was the consensus of opinion that 5
cents a bushel would be sufficient to
charge for threshing wheat this year.
With the idea of getting the thresher-
men to agree on a fixed sum, COM
mittee was appointed to take the mat
ter up with them as follows: t. G.
Roe, J. H. Hall, Jacob Kesselring, w.
D. Hudson, Harry Smith. The binder
twine proposition also came in for a
general discussion and a committee
was appointed to look into this COM
modify so essential to the farmer in
threshing time. The committee con-
