Delaware Man for Member
of Shipping Board

Proposal by the Chamber Of
Commerce of Camden, N. j., that
Delaware river interests be repre-
sented on the United States Ship
ping Board probably will be con-
sidered and endorsed by the di-
rectors of the Wilmington Cham
Der Of Commerce.
In letter sent Tuesday to
President-elect Harding, the Cam
den organization asks that when he
assumes office he give considera-
tion to a Delaware river district
man to the board.
Under the law creating the
board, the Atlantic coast is entitled
to two members, but no appoint
ments have been made from this
district. The Camden Chamber
feels that with its great shipbuild-
ing interests the Delaware river
section should be represented and
that there are many men qualified
to fill this responsible position.

Ways of being sweet and kind;

Smiles and goodness everywhere
Time to send the frowns away;
Time a gentle word to say;
But there is no time to spare
For unkindness anywhere.

Time for friendship any hour;
