CAPTAIN ScHELu LEAVES
ARMY FOR CHURCH WORK

Mrs Lottie Schell, who for the past
eight years has geen closely associat-
ed with the Salvation army, and for
some time a captain. has severed her
relations with that organization and
will devote her entire time to deacon
ess work in the Nazarene church.
Mrs. Schell feels that she will thus
have better opportunity to work in
the particular line in which she has
always been interested, and that her
physical strength is not sufficient to
handle both.
Her friends will be glad to learn
that she will remain in Delta and will
make her home with Rev. and Mrs.
w. T. Masion.
The Salvation Army work will be
handled by Captain A. w. Jarrett and
wife OF Montrose.

HOLLY SUGAR CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES ITS DECISION

The Holly Sugar corporation Off
cially announced yesterday that the
Delta mill will operate this year.
This means that the large number
of families associated with the Holly
people. some of whom own their
homes here, will return to Delta and
remain here. perhaps for years. for
the Holly people have openly an
nounced that If the factory operates
this year it will continue to operate
for years to come. 1t means payroll
of many thousands of dollars each
month. It means more business for
all Delta business men. for all these
people must be housed. clothed and
fed-and they are a small city in
themselves.
The company will expend between
this time and the fall sugar making
campaign time. $4,000 in remodeling
and further perfecting its million and
a half dollar factory.
