Milford chronicle. [volume] (Milford, Del.) 1878-1974, 1925-06-12

We have in our town a set of
young boys who if not checked in
their career of manners, will cause
their parents to drink deep from the
cup of sorrow before many years
pass away. These boys are allowed
to roam our streets day and night
and engage in some things which If
allowed to continue will soon bring
them within the meshes Of the law,
which will be the first step in a life
of crime. We appeal to the mothers
and fathers of this community to ex-
ercise more restraint in rearing
their children. Keep them into the
homes when of tender age and in
still in their minds and hearts the
great truth that it always pays to
do right. Some times we think the
reason that such a wave of crime is
sweeping over the country is be-
cause the boys lacked that restrain
ing influence which should be in eV-
cry home where children are
brought up. So we appeal once more
! to the parents of the boys who are
permitted to run at large and do as
they please. Building fires in barns
and driving plugs in the exhaust
pipe of the electric light plant at the
church, thereby endangering the
lives of the attendants and other
things of equal vicious nature, are
not conducive to the welfare of any
community, but will prove the I'M
doing and the forward steps in crime
of those who engage in it. Please
look after your children and escape !
serious trouble which may come to
you.
We note with pleasure the infor-
nation which the Chronicle gives |
that the hotel at Slaughter Beach |
will open for the reception of guests
on Sunday, June 18th, under the
management of Edward ]. Salevan
of Milford. We congratulate Mr.. Sal
evan on being able to secure a lease
on this old hosiery. The possibili-
ties at Slaughter Beach are great
and if properly developed will bring
about a new era of prosperity to this
grand old watering place. A little
judicious advertising and serve shore
dinners and suppers often and the
victory is won.
James Daniels, an aged and re-
spected farmer, living near here,
died suddenly early Monday MORN

the excessive heat. Mr.. Daniels was
about n years of age and had &c
sided on the farm where he died for
many years. He was an inoffensive
man, making no enemies, but had
many friends, who deplore his sud-
den demise. Funeral services were
