TO GET RESULTS from display
of holiday season goods, the mer-
chant or others who will supply the
Christmas toys and novelties to be
used as presents, must remember,
that to get attention of the buying
public, places of business must be
made unusually attractive both with
in and WITHOUT, by brilliant lights,
evergreen or other forms of trim
mings to create interest by the buy
ing public.
Freshen up the store fronts with
bright paint and use unusual things
to get the curious to visit the store.
After they are once within, see that
there are ample stocks of all kinds
of holiday goods for all who come;
and, also attendants to assist them in
making choice of toys, or render
what ever aid such as a good sales
person can always give to another.
Have the goods for the people
and have them early, so that those
who come to look, will be sufficient
ly interested to go away and tell
others of what Milford stores are
doing to supply holiday wants. By
this they can and do create a con-
tinuous chain of possible customers;
that's one way to have great
Christmas holiday business; start
the display early and let the people
talk about it and its location and
then they will do the rest.
Never advertise as having some |
thing thai. is not in your stock, for
that will lose you trade and be a
detriment to the place of business.
Begin to advertise by Frightening
up your corner, then tell the people
what the store has got on display
each week; but that must be done
at least three weeks before Christ
mas and continued on up to the last
few days of the buying season. 1t
is mistake to advertise only just
a few days before the holiday-the
drawing power is lost on customers
from a distance by that policy. Re
that there is common sense
in advertising at the proper time,
and that the people are capable of
Judging for themselves who is mis-
their stocks Play
he game with intelligence, tell the
ruth and stand on the basis that
your customers are as intelligent
is you are and the trick is solved.
Start with next week to draw the ..
people to Milford by giving them ,
to see and talk about. ]
Then keep it up.

JUST A FEW years ago Delaware
had fur bearing animals such as
the mink and otter, in addition to
those familiar animals of today
whose pelts are sought by trappers
in the woods and marshes of this
state. determination by persistent
trapping without regard for preserv
ing breeders to replenish their kind
is responsible for the scarcitw of
these valuable fur bearing animals
on the Delaware Peninsula. There
are men everywhere, who would kill
to the last individual of the breed, of
any kind of animal, that they might
place a few dollars in their pocket
for the present and without thought
for the future supply. 1t is for the
purpose of protecting the animals
and for the financial welfare of
those who will live after the pres
ent generation is gone, that laws
are made and must be enforced; if
Delaware is to reap the large rev.
enues which the fur bearing ami
mails bring in each year. 1t is for
that reason dog, owners shall con-
troll their dogs during the closed
season; and, there is only one way
to control either the dogs or their
owners, and that way was supplied
by the Legislature of Delaware,
when it provided for an annual dog
tax and placed the enforcement of
that law in the hands of the Fish,
Oyster and Game Commission,
which body is provided with ample
power to enforce the statute.
1t is a fact well known to all,
that any license or tax which COM
pels the individual to pay even one
dollar, is unpopular with that class
of citizens who keep dogs and per-
NIT them to roam and destroy
game or poultry. That is why the
game wardens are needed to en-
force payment of the fees. Dogs
have been a great pleasure and sat
sfaction to the writer of this edi-
,orial. Probably we have owned
nearly two score of hunting and !
other breeds of dogs in our life.
they were our companion and al
most human in their understanding |
Ind appreciation of our desires of |
hem. They have repaid many
lines for their care and keep by
he happiness, health and recrea-
ion they brought in our associa-
ions. 1t is inconceivable that
here exists a man or woman, who
las so little love for their pet dog,
II so little regard for its welfare
nd the interests Of others, that
hey will oppose payment of an an
lual license to the state of one dol
ar, to establish their dog as a unit
f their family; or at least a play
1ate for children. Protect the dogs
s well as the fur bearing animals
f Delaware. Ninety per cent of
hose who own dogs in Delaware
ay the license fee cheerfully and
nth satisfaction, the other ten per
ent are Of that class who break
ather than observe laws; but they
lust not escape its payment. /

1T is only three weeks before
Christmas. Do you realize just
what that means to you as a factor
in the home happiness? 1t is so
little to make the children happy at
this great holiday season. Loosen

ter for yourself, the children and
those WHO are less fortunate than
yourself. It's Christmas time, the
time of happiness and peace on

A FEW generations ago furs oil
many kinds were commonly taken
in all sections of the United States'
but now, with the depletion or eX-
tinction over great areas of certain
of the more priced species, the most
valuable fur bearers, from the view
point of financial returns from the
annual catch, are muskrats, skunks

Stop That Backache!
Many Pocomoke City Folks Have
Found the Way.

Is a dull, nerve-racking backache
wearing you out? DO you feel older
and slower than you should? Are
you tired, weak and nervous; find 1t
impossible to be happy, or enjoy the
good times around you? Then there's
something wrong and likely It's your
kidneys. Why not get at the cause?
Use Doan's Pills--a stimulant diuret-
ic to the kidneys. Your neighbors rec
ommend Doan's. Read what this
Pocomoke CITY resident says:
Jas. p. Townsend, AS Clarke Ave,
says: "My back ached and when
stopped it was task for me to
straighten again, so lame and stiff
was my back. The kidney secretions
passed much too freely at times and
other times they were scarty and
sluggish. Doan's Pills from Clarke
& Co.'s Drug Store rid me of back
ache and my kidneys acted in nor
nal way. l haven't had any return
of the trouble since Doan's cured
me-"

first board of governors of the college
but he made gift OF fifty guineas in
god ard wrote a letter 10 the presi-
dent expressing the hope that the in
FAINT school would prosper and in

College is the only educational insti-
tuition to which Washington gave his
direct consent to the use Of his name.
He subsequently went to Chestertown

or MS wy to and from the Continen-
ia! Congress, then in session in Phila-
delphia.
Dr.. William Smith, first president
Of Washington College, was close
friend OF the famous commander and
thus attracted his attention to the
college over whose destines Smith, at
that time, presided. At a time when
a plot was afoot to GUST Washington
from the command of mis- army Smith
Was one Vi those loyal friends who
frustrated the attempt. One OF the
chief figures in the scheme was one
Conway, former officer, then
connected with the American Army.
The plot was thus known as "Con-
ways Cabal." He fought duel, it
il. said, with General Cadwalader, one
of Wasllirgton's loyal staff officers,
over the whole affair. Later, at his
death, Cadwa!ader was buried in
Shrewsbury churchyard, near. Ches-
tertown.
Thus it will be seen from these in
cidents, and many others that space
forbids the mention of, that there is a
strong romantic and historic link be-
tween the story of the nations first

other features will be presented at
the coming sesqui-centennial of Wash

bert +. Hodges of Frank A. Munsey
Company and the All-Fiction Field
magazines. "This is one Of the times
when l have seen by actual demon
stration, how glowing advertisements
may sometimes fall considerably short
in their power of actually picturing
the facts they try to describe.
Hollywood is the wonder city of a
State that is rapidly growing to be
the wonder State of the Union. Not
for much longer shall we come to
think of Florida simply as holiday
resort, though that vii, always be one
OF its most attractive appeals; VIC
shall come to know it soon as it really
is, a State of great industrial poten-
tialities; State which impels one of
it's private citizens, j. w. Young, to
build $15,OOO,00O deep water harbor
at Hollywood capable of accommodate
ing the largest ships in the world and
which will be the finest seaport on the
Atlantic coast. We shall come to
realize that Florida is the great gar
den State; the great health resort
and the State with the finest roads,
the most abundant waterways, the
most fertile soil, the softest breezes,
and with a climate so salubrious that
is no wonder that it was here that the
legend of the fountain of youth had
it's BIRTH"
"Already this is city of homes.
Today Hollywood has permanent
population of between five and six
thousand, it has fine churches, a mag
nifcent school house, modern hotels,
one of which, just being completed, is
to cost $3,000,000. The city itself is
set back from the ocean front far e.
nough so that it has ample room for
healthy expansion.
81 am convinced that Florida is an
all the year State and that it's future
Is to be brilliant, not only from So
cial and recreation viewpoint but as
field for big business. All that one
can desire to make life thing of
beauty Florida has-salubrious eli
mate all the year round, a soil that
seems able tc grow everything in the
greatest abundance and luxury, roads
that are planned to excel those in the
other States Of the Union, magnificent
waterways, rivers and canals that will
aid greatly in all problems of trans
portation, agriculturists and stock
raisers who are up-to-date and who
are developing these industries along

AGRICULTURE

Poultry raisers in Maryland will
soon be made acquainted with a new
classification of fowls and in addition
to the many varieties Of the many
breeds with which they are already
familiar will be called upon to dis
tinguish between certified and uncer-
titled focks.
The certifcation of poultry focks is
a new undertaking in Maryland that
is being sponsored by the Maryland
Poultry Association, Inc, in cooper
alton with the poultry department at
the University of Maryland. The OBJ
ject is to improve the quality of hatch
ing eggs and breeding stock produced
by pouitrymen in the State and to
provide for the purchaser an official
assurance that in buying from the
owner of a certified flock he is secur-
ing the best in the way of poultry that
it is possible to produce.
Poultry flocks will only be certified
when they measure up to certain high
standards of breeding, vigor and
health and vigor. Numerous inspec-
tions will be made from time to time
to see that proper feeding and man.
agement methods are being practiced
and that sanitary conditions are main
tanned.
Once a poultry flock has been GER
titled, the owner will be permitted to
sell his eggs and his day old chicks
as we'll as his mature breeding stock
under the official certifcation stamp.
All inspections for certifcation will
be made under supervision of the
poultry department of the University
Of Maryland. The work of poultry
certifcation is expected to get under
way by September 21st in time for
next years breeding season.
