AT THE PALACE THEATRE

Skyscrapers are the playthings of
Harold Lloyd, the inimitable Associat-
ed Exhibitors comedian, in "Never
Weaken" his newest release showing
at the Palace Theatre Friday and Sat-
urday. Skyscrapers are beehives of
romance, and "Never Weaken" is the
amusing and amazing tale of the love
of youth for a maid, whom he be-
lieved untrue. They worked in adj
joining offices. Her "boss" was a
doctor without any patients-until
Harold undertook to get some for him.
Business was thriving when Harold
discovered the girl who wore his
diamond ring, in the arms of another.
He smiled upon death; he welcomed
it with open arms-until he found
himself sitting on an iron girder,
twelve stories in the air, and nothing
to grab hold of but the framework of
a skyscraper in the making! Life
then became sweet and worth scramble
ing, tumbling and falling for. Harold
Lloyd's feminine partner in fun is the
petite and pretty Mildred Davis.
Florence Reed in AT Bay" her
newest Pathe picture will also be
shown Friday and Saturday with
"Never Weaken" and "The Ballad of
Fishers Boarding House.

At the MOUieS
AT THE OPERA HOUSE

Friday and Saturday-"The Last
TraiP'-Zane Grey's stories have an
indefinable power to grip all lovers Of
romance dealing with love and life in
the American West at a time when
that great section was truly the home
of daring adventure and when a ma
jority of men who died may be said
to have died with their boots on"
Reginald Denny, star of the series
of Leather Pushers" two-reel dramas
of the prize ring which start at the
Opera House Friday and Saturday
insisted that his fight scenes in the
pictures be as realistic as possible.
Denny is a rugged athlete and
clever boxer. He likes the ring and
its opponents.
Monday -"S Shame" - More snow
than falls on the entire State of New
York-fOr example-in the heaviest
winter is shown in the William Fox
special production, Shame" There
are wildenesses of snow in the Alaska
scenes which bring the thrilling melo-
drama to a close with a series of
stupendous events. There are noun
tains of snow, and deep valleys filled
with vast drifts. Men and dogs look
exceedingly small in the white wilder
ness, though the passions and strug-
giles of those in "Shame" loom large
even in the great white northland.
Tuesday-"The Sky Pilot"-Ralph
Connor's original novel, "The Sky
Pilot" from which the picture was
adapted, most artistically blended the
subtlety of human interest with the
tensity of dramatic situations; but
even his own art has been enhanced in
the perturbation of the story.
Smyrna times. [volume] (Smyrna, Del.) 1854-1987, 1922-05-10

Fire last week destroyed the farm
and dwelling of Thomas j. Wilson, on
the road leading from Pilottown to
Nassau. The live stock except a num-
Der of chickens were all saved. Only
a few pieces of furniture was saved
from the house. This was the third
fire which has occurred in this vicinity
in the past six days. The Lewes fire
company was called but the buildings
were practically destroyed when the
firemen got there.

DELAWARE TAKES LEAD OF
OTHER STATES IN APPLES
HAS MORE TREES PLANTED TO
THE SQUARE MILE THAN n. Y.
New York State, However, Ranks
SecOnd.-Delaware Apples Prom
Uses To Become Famous.

tSCS ~ It dnOuS.
Delaware has more bearing apple
trees to square mile than any other
State in the country, it has been an
nounced by the census bureau of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The apple tree distribution is
548 to one square mile. New York
ranks second, with an average of 287
trees to one square mile. Virginia
comes third, with an average of 255
trees, and the State of Washington
ranks fourth with 100. Horticultural
experts say there is no other State in
the Union situated so advantageously
with reference to good markets and
soil and climatic conditions for apple
growing. Statistics show that the
Western States have had an increase
in the number of apple orchards dur
ing the last ten years, but that the
Northwestern States have expert
enced a decrease in that period, be-
cause of the gradual disappearance of
the farm and home orchards. The
States in the central west also show a
decided decrease in the number of
apple-bearing trees, on account of the
many insect pests and plant diseases,
very largely due to weather conditions
The States that have an increase in
the number of apple trees to each
square mile since 1910 are Delaware
New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia and
West Virginia. The total increase il
these five States being 2,491 ,299 trees
The increase according to States is as
follows: Delaware, 386,356; New Jcr-
sey, 255,577; Maryland, 1854; Vir.
ginia, 38O,729; West Virginia, 121 400
During the last ten years the State
of Delaware has increased its apple
growing area almost 100 per cent.

Charles Hail. the political advenurer and defeated Ku Ku
Kanddate governor He alleges that he received 4123
votes more than Governor Ocot despite the fact that

is placed entirely upon by the various election boards
in about 900 precincts AS these boards likely to

a recount will show material change in results.
1t is noticeable that alleged in precincts
carried by Hall and recount asked for counties where Hall
had heavy majortes Every ballot apparently correctly
marked sections No exception taken to democrats
who changed their registration to vote for Haony those
who voted for Olcott accused of Illegal voting.
Whether contest proceedings be naugurated at this
late day for the courts to determine Puposey delaying
proceedings until the validity is questionable shows lack
of sincerity that the suspicion that the contest isl
bluff designed propaganda to aid the Ku Klux
men and prepare the way for the injection of independent
candidate into the race.
If there is to be recount Of thousand precincts
the should be complete and embrace every
precinct the state that all claims of fraud be forever
laid at What wrong in precincts carried by Ocott
also wrong in precincts carried by Hall.
The striking feature about the whole proceeding in fact
about Halls attitude since the election is his short sportsman

Clayering could not keep him
self from asking that question.
"Did Margaret know about Har-
rvs hurt, and know it, was she

was?
For the life of him Clavering

because he had feeling that
very probably something worse
was coming to Harry Glendening
than physical hurt.
He who had gone through life
making both men and women ad-
mire and love him was probably
going to worry through the rest
Of his existence with only his own
remorseful thoughts.
Clavering began again to take
some interest in the story that was
unfolding because 1t held all the
ups and downs, the rights and
wrongs Of human life. And he
wondered, as he stepped into DR..
Milton s room, what the next
change would be.
