Complaint is being made that
a light has not been placed at
the stairway fire escape exit at
the Smyrna Opera House long
before this. We understand
Council authorized this done,
months ago, but still the work
has not been done. Commence
ment night when the Opera
House was crowded many de-
sired to take advantage of the
exit stairway to reach the street
but were afraid to on account of
there being no light to light the
way out of the stairway to the
street. Council should by all
means hasten work on this.
Should an alarm of fire be given
when the Opera House was
crowded, many might suffer SER
iOus injuries by trying to use
this fire escape in the darkness.

ting a square deal on the ques-
ton of roads. Instead Of being
the first road to be considered in
upper Kent it is being put down
at the tail end or atleast three
other roads, some not nearly so
much needed, are getting earlier
consideration. The road between
Smyrna and Clayton is as much
travelled as any four (outside of
the dupont Boulevard or State
Highway in Kent County. Our
Levy Court Commissioner is
hopeful that this road will still
be put out at bids this year. We
trust it will be so. The Smyr-

it should by all means be bull

Local Bank to Distribute
"True-to-Life' Stories
Monthly Folders Will Relate Typical
Success Experiences" of Home
People by First National

There will never be anything half
so interesting to big, warm-hearted
people, as-other people. We enjoy
music, we are interested in art and
science, but nothing so tugs at our
heart-strings as the things which
happen to. people just like ourselves.
The folders, written in story-form,
to be distributed every month by
The First National Bank deserve to
be received~with the keenest interest
and approval ~
According to the banks officers,
these stories are to deal with the lives
and fortunes of typical family
not geniuses, nor people the least bit
out of the ordinary, but "just folks"
like the rest of us.
In the first story to be mailed this
month-under the heading ''The Joy
of Living"-the bank introduces this
family at one of their informal gath
erings. And right from this first &C
quaintance, on through the other
stories that go to make up the series,
the reader may7se mirrored his own
ideals, ambitions, problems, struggles
and achievements.
And, too, he will learn from this
happy united family group much that
will be of help to him-much that
will give him firmer, truer grasp on
the realities of life-and much that
will increase his own "joy of living. "
The literature to be distributed by
the bank is not only interesting, in
that the stories realated are so true
to life, but also because they are SO
handsomely illustrated with photo
graphs, some in full color-likely to
be retained and priced for their a.

CHAPTER XVI.
The Last of the Redmaynes.

For the night Immediately following
Doria's experience at the old shrine,
Albert Redmayne and his friend, Vir-
giliO Poggi, had accepted Mark Bren-
dons invitation to dine at the Hotel
Victoria. where he still stayed.
In order that he might enjoy pri-
vate conversation with BrendOn and,
at the same time, keep close watch
upon Albert, Cams had proposed the
dinner party at the hotel and directed
Brendon to issue the invitation as
soon as Redmayne had returned home.
Wholly unsuspicious, Signor Poggi
and Albert appeared in the glory Of
soft white shirt fronts and rather
rusty evening black. A special meal
was prepared for their pleasure and
the four partook of it in a private
chamber at the Eotel. Then they ad-
journed to the smoking room, and
anon, when Poggi and his companion
were deep in their all-sufficing sub
ject Peter, few yarfs distant with
Mark beside him, related the incident
