Pocon,oke City National
Bank Nearing Completion

Rapid progress is being made in the
construction of the Pocomoke City
National Bank.
This handsome structure, when fin
ished will compare favorably with
any on the Peninsula.
It's Indiana stone front following
carefully standard Grecian architect
ural lines; it's interior arrangement
looking to the convenience of both
patron and official; it's dark oak fur
nishing; and it's mural decorations,
make it financial banking house of
while the city can be proved.
Indeed the appearance of our banks
and other buildings has caused most
favorable comment from all who have
visited Pocomoke.
1t is to be hoped that more of the
burnt district may soon be covered.

Peoples Column

Newark, Md, June "a, 1924.
Editor, Worcester Democrat, POGO
moke City, Md.
Dear Mr.. Clarke:
l have read with some interest the
libelous communication in your paper
OF last week, signed under the nome
de-plume "a DEMOCRAT" Ordi-
narily one does not pay any attention
to such things unless they are signed
but as you have published the COM
munication l feel that the facts
should be stated.
In the first place l do not believe
there is democrat in Worcester
county so colossally ignorant of con-
ditions in the County Treasurer's and
BOARD of County Commissioners Of
fees. We are not responsible for our
salaries being $1,000 per year. This
law was passed by the Legislature.
A great deal is said in the commune
cation about our Clerk and her salary
of $1,000. This is a reduction of $3.50
per year from what the former clerk
received. Our clerk is on duty six
days per week instead of one day per
week. 1t is true that the law says
that. the Treasurer shall act as Clerk
to the County Commissioners and he
does SO act. 1t is perfectly obvious to
any intelligent person that one clerk
could not possibly carry on the work
of the Treasurer's office and make
the transfers in the County Commits
sioners' office.
The money levied for Stockton
school is safely in bank and he need
not suffer any uneasiness about it.
AS far as the rate is concerned, under
the old Board the rate was $3.50,
$1.40 and $1.30 for past three years
and we found the money all used up
at the beginning of our term and il
was perfectly obvious to us that the
