Public Canning
Exhibit Tomorrow
United Canneries Corporation In
vites Public to Their
Plant Tomorrow

Persons of Newark and vicinity
Will have the opportunity of seeing
first-class cannery at work on
Thursday afternoon.
The officials of the United Canneries
Corporation, which is operating the
Ritter Plant, along the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad, have invited the people to
come to the plant between 2 and 5
o'clock tomorrow afternoon, to see
corn and tomatoes packed the new,
clean, sanitary way, with the most
modern machinery in one of the larg-
est and best equipped plants of its
character in the country.
Now that the corn and tomatoes are
coming in from the farmers of this
vicinity the plant is working full time
and some excellent packs are being
made. It was with great interest that
the people of this neighborhood learn
ed that the Ritter Plant was started
up again this year, after being idle
Tor some time.
The United Canneries Corporation
had. farmers and men of this vicinity
to subscribe to stock in the local can
ming plant and in this manner enough
money was raised to assure the
plants operation again.
That the plant is proving it's worth
to the farmers is shown by the great
amount of corn and tomatoes that is
being hauled there every day for can
ming at the present time.
The invitation to see this canning
demonstration in the up-to-date local
plant will, without doubt, attract
the attention of hundreds who have
never before had the opportunity to
see canning plant in actual running
order.

Vinton Has Best
Tournament Score
Local Golfers Face Bad Weather
Conditions in Play on
Saturday

Despite the bad weather of last
Saturday the first of the series of
tournaments arranged by the match
committee of the Newark Country
Club was run off with eleven players
turning in scores which were yery
good considering the conditions they
faced.
Due to the bad weather, it has been
decided to set all the tournaments ar
ranged back a week and continue the
tournament of last Saturday again
next week, more players will then
have a chance to qualify.
The match on Saturday was a quail
flying round. All the players turned
in their gross scores. They are then
grouped in classes of eight on the
basis of those scores. The remainder
of the match will be played as match
play.
In the event on Saturday, Benia-
min Vinton, of Delaware City, who
has been making excellent scores since
joining the local club, turned in the
best score, his card showing an SS.

Many Suggestions And Plans
Are Outlined By Local
Chamber of Commerce
Want Merchants To
Close Their Stores
Eight O'clock Every Evening but
Wednesday and Saturday.
Hear School Report

.~. At meeting of Newark's Chamber
of Commerce last week it was decided
that that body should try and have
the merchants of the town close their
stores at s o'clock every evening, ex-
cept Wednesday and Saturday.
Efforts along this line have been
discussed great number of times and
several of the merchants have made
individual efforts to have this rule
carried out but only few of the mer-
chants seemed to fall in for the move
ment.
Now that the Chamber of Com
merce is back of the movement it
would not be surprising that such a
ruling was made among the mer-
chants of the town.
