GREAT CONCOURSE
OF DELEGATES AT
LEGION CONCLAVE


Emory the convention arose and
stood for half minute in silent trib-
ute TO the memory of the lac +. w
Galbraith. former Commander of the
Legion, who was killed last spring in
an automobile accident
Mr.. Emory then proceeded to make
his report.
Prolonged cheers greeted the an
nouncement by Commander Emory
that the President had checkmated
Congress in the matter Of delaying
legislation for the relief of veterans
of the World War.
The national commander asserted
that President Harding had held a
conference with the anti-compcnsa-
ton members and then went before
Congress to urge that the legislation
be reconsidered. Ng
More cheers followed Mr.. Emory's
declaration that the Legion was in the
compensation fight to stay and that il
would make its stand known to all
the countries of the world in unmis-
taxable terms and without regard for
party politics. ~

FAMOUS PAINTING TO
COME TO THE STATES

The most important transaction in
recent years in the world OF art is the
sale of Gainsborough's Blue Boy to
the firm Of Duveen Brothers. The
Blue Boy" is the most famous of
Gainsbororgh's works. 1t was the
property OF the Duke Of Westminster
and is thought to have been sold for a
price in the neighborhood of $S50,000
Considerable discussion has been
aroused in England by the sales. The
Duke of Westminster is regarded as
one of the wealthiest noblemen of
Britain and the transfer, which is a
blow to English art lovers, is gener-
ally blamed upon excessive taxation.
After the announcement of the sale
speculation was rife as to who the
private purchaser might be. Names
of several collectors were mentioned
and it was said definitely in some
circles that the picture had been pur-
chased for one of these. 1t was en-
phatically denied by the Duveens
however, that the Blue Boy" had
been bought for any collector or any
person or persons.

the Duveens as matter of business

the most Interesting and important art
events ever held III New York City, OF
perhaps in the country. To bring the
Duke of Westminster's Blue Boy

great a feature in the art world as
would be the bringing of the Mona
Lisa from France. Everyone inter

AMERICAS WELCOME TO A
CONOUERING HERO

The greatest reception ever
rendered a foreigner was given
Marshal Foch on his arrival in
New York on last Friday
1t was a spontaneous outburst
of welcome on the part OF the
thousands who crowded the
streets and waited for hours for a
glimpse of the man who stands
out prominently as the winner of
the war.
Not only was it personal tri-
butte to the first soldier of the
world, but to France and the
Allies, and as the Marshal him
self phrased it, was intended to
emphasize the Spirit of Union"
From the time the Paris" got
within radio distance of the hun
dreds of amateur wireless stations
operating on this coast the Gene
raj was besieged with messages OF
greeting. and his trip up the bay
was made to the accompaniment
of noise and din only equalled
on busy day i'll the trenches.
The same enthusiasm was shown
on shore during the transit from
the Battery to City Hall where
the freedom of the city was CON
ferred on him.
With the cheers of New York
still ringing in his ears. the great
Frenchman met the same wei
come in Washington. and he will
find it wherever he goes in the
United States.
1t has been the dream of mil
lions of Americans to hail the
commander of the allied armies.
whose genius and audacity turned
the tide of war in the summer OF
1918. shattered the prestige OF the
German arms and brought the
struggle to an end by an offensive
that for sustained power and UNI
failing skill was without a parallel
in history. The dream is now to
come true.
The great MarshaFs progress
from city to city will be an I'M
forgettable event to the men and
women of this generation, and the
record of it will be imperishable
Like General Joffre. Foch
fought in the Franco-Prussian
war as a second lieutenant and
had the shame and bitterness of
the memory of that singing de-
feat, and the humiliation of the
German coronation at Versailles
to accompany him through his
military career.
Taught in that bitter school. he
learned his lessons well, and later
as professor in the War College
he wrote textbooks on the con-

FORMER POCOMOKE
POLICEMAN DEAD
Mr.. George Ellis Dies After
Short Illness of Pneumonia

The news of the sudden death of
Mr.. George Ellis came as a shock to
cur people. Mr.. Ellis, who some
months ago left our town to reside in
Philadelphia, was here on a visit
last week. He left here on Wednes-
day and arrived in Philadelphia that
night. He was afterward taken ill
and case Of pneumonia developed.
Saturday he was removed to hos
pital and his death occurred on Mon
day.
Mr.. Ellis was about 6S years oil
age and was for many years the night
policeman for this city. No man was
ever more faithful in the discharge of
his duties and our people were
grieved when he was compelled to
give up the job by reason of failing
health.
He is survived by a widow and
three daughters, his daughters being
Mrs. William Evans, of Norfolk, Va;
Mrs. Lorie Mariner, of Philadelphia,
and Miss Belle Ellis, of Philadelphia.
Funeral services were held at his
late residence in Philadelphia and the
remains were taken to Salisbury on

RESPECTED CITIZEN
ANSWERS ROLL CALL
Mr.. Charles H. Ellis Died AT The
Salisbury Hospital Thursday
Morning Last

1t is with the deepest regret that
we chronicle the passing of Mr..
Charles H. Ellis, one of our best
known and most respected citizens.
Mr.. Ellis had been in poor health for
some time and for several weeks
prior to his oeath had been unable to
prosecute his business, that of car
penter. He had been suffering from
the effects of carbuncle and our
town was surprised to learn of the
sudden illness which overlook him on
Thursday of last week and resulted in
his being hurriedly removed to the
Salisbury Hospital Still another sur
prise came to our people when it was
learned few days after he arrived
at the hospital that he was suffering
from some serious kidney trouble and
that his condition was really critical.
But the shock of all was the an
rouncement # his death on Thurs
day morning last, he having passed
away sometime during the night pre-
yious.
Mr.. Ellis was carpenter by trade
and was acknowledged to be one of
the best mechanics in our town. He
lad resided here practically all his

TO BUILD new PLANT
IN POCOMOKE CITY
Our Town To Have An Up-to-Date
Cleaning And Dyeing Plant.
Located On Willow St.

Last week we noted the fact v.lat
Mr. Norman Lewis had purchased
from The Farmers and Merchants
Purchasing Corporation the proper
ty on Willow street, adjoining their
large concrete establishment, and bet
ter known as the Polk property. We
now understand that it will be per-
manently improved and a portion Of
the lot used for business purposes.
The Lewis Dyeing and Cleaning
Company will erect large brick or
concrete building on thu southeast
side of the residence now standing on
the lot in which an up-todate clean
ing and dyeing plant will be operat-
ed. The building will be 20 70
feet in dimensions, and will be built
either of concrete or brick, and work
On the same will be commenced just
as soon as the specifications can be
gotten in shave and the workmen and
the material secured. The plant will
be equipped with all the modern ap-
pliances for cleaning and dyeing and
will supply a long felt need in this
town and the surrounding country.
Mr.. Lewis, who is the head of this
enterprise, is young man of push
and industry. He deserves success
and he has met with it. He came to
our town a few years ago and started
in a small way the cleaning and press
sing business. By his push and untir-
ing efforts he has worked the business
up to large proportions and has for
sometime been enjoying large busi-
ness, so much so that he has long
since outgrown the quarters he has
for years been occupying.
His new venture is but another
proof of his enterprise and we are
sure that his efforts will meet with
the hearty approval and loyal support
of all citizens. Such plant is need
ed in our city and surely Mr.. Lewis is
the man to head it. We wish him sue
cess in his enterprise and predict that
in few years he will have again out
grown his quarters and will have to
build annexes in order to take care of
his constantly growing business.
