Central Closing Exercises
Were Largely Attended

The Worcester County Board Of
instituted new departure
in the closing exercises Of the school
year.
This consisted in having a "com-
for those who have fin
ished the elementary grades. Certifi-
Gates of graduation" were given to
thirty-three pupils of the Pocomoke
City school; two, to Goodwill school;
two to Voelker; one, to Browns;
two to Merrill's; and two, to Boston's.
A very entertaining program was
arranged consisting of instrumental
and vocal music; Rotations. Ind
speeches by Assistant State Superin-
tendent of Schools, w. J. Holloway,
and County Supt. Humphreys.
A beautiful number on the list was
a rose drill by sixteen girls of the
Seventh grade.
The intricate movements of this
were faultessly performed, and these
manoeuvers coupled with the d-.inty
costumes and interesting faces of the
girls made a picture long to be re
membered.
Another interesting feature was the
music conducted by Prof. Thomas Glib.
son Of the State Board, who was most
successful in getting the audience tc
participate in the folk singing.
Altogether this first exercise for
the Seventh grade was deserving Of
the highest praise.

Clean up day; that sounds good
and the community is expected to
respond. All right, let's do it.
WHERE, ON FOURTH STREET?
What about it? Fourth street wants
"a clean up day.
We have the most filthy conditions
of any part of the town; it is really
worse than the old New Town streets
were before we had concrete. Those
who do not have to contend with the
dirt and dust from these filthy condi-
lions do not know how to sympathize
with the women folks who try to make
every day clean up day. They can
devote one-fourth of each day in try
ing to be relieved of the dust and dirt
that penetrates their homes inside and
out. Even the furniture is covered
with a coat of dust thick enough to
write your name on and when it rains
in crossing this street the black mud
is carried in the homes to the detri-
ment of carpets, rugs, and all other
furnishings. s
We on Fourth street fully concur
in cleanup day and we hope Mr..
Mayor and the Councilmen will better
our conditions with clean up day on
this street.

A wife dear and mother kind,
Has gone and left US all behind,

Recalls the love, the voice, the smile,
Of one who once sat there.

R. R. IS SEVERELY
REBUKED BY j: s.
BOARD OF LABOR
by United Press Leased Wire

CHICAGO, June 18.-The Pen
sylvania railroad was today public
ly reprimanded by the United
States railroad labor board for
"refusal to permit a certain class
of employees to select their own
representative to negotiate agree
ments covering wages and working
conditions.
The Pennsylvania was declared
to. have "denied to its shopmen es-
sential rights as laboring men to
which congress had declared the
men entitled. -
The official rebuke, the only
penalty the rail board is empow-
cred to inflict, climaxed the at
tempt of the Pennsylvania to nego-
tiate with its men direct through
company unions. - The train
mems brotherhoods were the only
exception TO this scheme and the
fight has been before the board
and in courts at various times in
two years.
R. f. Ignores Board
The railroad ignored an order of
the board to hold an election
among its shop crafts so that the
men might select representatives to
act in wage and other disputes.
The board cited the road for con
tempt. The board took an injunc-
tion case to restrain the board from
administering the rebuke to the
United States supmreme court,
which held in favor of the board.
Recently Samuel Rea, president
of the road, was peremptorily hal
ed before the board by Ben w.
Hooper, chairman, in q similar con-
troversy involving the clerk s
brotherhood.

All Winners In
Eastern Classic
Used "WiIlards''

Tommy Milton s great victory at
the indianapolis Speedway races
against q field of the greatest auto
mobile drivers in the country proved
victory not only for the driver
and the ear but also for the equip
ment which carried the ear into first
place.
The winning ear was equipped
with battery ignition using a Will
ard battery. Machines driven by
Harry Hartz. Jimmy Murphy and
Earl Cooper who finished second,
third and fourth, respectively, were
also battery equipped with Willards.
Last year there was but one car
in the race Willard equipped, that
of Jimmy Murphy, the winner. This
year out OF the ten who finished
within the money seven carried
Willard Battreies. This was indeed
a greai victory for this battery.
Grucling Test
The indianapolis classic is the
most grue!ling test that can be
imagined. The winning car was
driven at an engine speed of 5000
revolutions a minute requiring the
Willard battery to supply 44,S00
sparks per minute. Thus the bat
terry on the winning ear was requir-
ed to furnish approximately thirteen
and n half million sparks, truly
remai kable performance considering
that 10 generator is carried On a
racing car to recharge the battery.
