The new directory which will soon
appear will contain a very creditable
notice of Pocomoke City and its, vari-
Gus business enterprises. 1t notes to
considerable extent the fine fire de-
rartment, banks, schools, churches.
and it's city government. 1t enha-
sizes it's civic organizations, it's news
paper, and Farmers Exchange. 1t
characterizes Pocomoke as the shop
ping center Of the Peninsula and gives
the number of shopping population as
100000 people.
In other ways it boosts the town

Antique Ca1dlesticks
Stolen In Norfolk, Va.

The following was clipped from the
Virginia-Pilot, Norfolk daily, and
may be of some interest to the Demo-
Gratis readers:
1.-TWO antique brass candlesticks
that once graced Colonial tables,
when candles were necessities instead
OF decorations, stolen from the resi-
dence of A. r. McAllen, Alb Duke
street, Norfolk, Va, Thursday have
not yet been recovered.
Although their intrinsic value is
not great, their owner hopes that the
thief may be detected and the candle
sticks returned, for they are family
heirlooms and have long history be-
hind them. They were made in Eng
land when Virginia was a colony of
the crown, and were gracefully turn
ed by a master craftsman.
They were brought to this country
and at one time helped light the home
Of Major King, who then owned the
entire area of what is now Somerset
county, Md. Each of them has a
small screw set in the bottom, so ar
ranged that it is possible to elevate
the candle as the wax burns low.

Thrills.

Caldwell high school dropped its
last intersoholastic football game OF
the season last Saturday to Boise
Score, 3i-6.
But the game was closer than the
score and marked by some OF the
wierdest football OF the season. Three
times in the first half Caldwell got
lucky breaks which promised a score.
Three times breaks gave Boise the
ball before the touchdown could
materialize.
The first half ended with Boise
on the long end OF a 90 score and
that one touchdown resulted from a
intercepted forward pass on a bungled
play, just gift But the second half
began TO show the superiority of the
Boise team while Caldwell's defense
wilted under the onslaught.

son for Caldwell but at the last min
ute another contest was arranged at
Twin Falls with the Albion Normal
team and Coach Garten took his
squad there Wednesday for the con-
