AMBITION seems to have vanish
ed from Milford business people.
They seem not to have realized that
great crowds of people thronging the
streets of the town, bring both bus
mess and publicity for Milford. For
several weeks the attention of the
people, the business people especial
ly, was called to the Halloween fes-
tive season, and the opportunity to
advertise Milford as an active go
get'er for publicity, through this fes-
tival of fun; but, as yet not single
whimper of approval, either pro or
con, has been voiced. The boys and
girls, with some of the grownups,
will have the usual non-descript eel
ebration, without the direction or
purpose. The opportunity to have a
gala time, one in which the individ-
uals would provide the fun and cos
tunes, has been ignored so far. All
that is needed is a bit of Organiza-
ton of a parade and the happy peo-
pie would do the rest willingly. Is
Milford dead, or only comatose?
Milford chronicle., 1926-10-22

OCTOBER has brought beautiful
weather to Delaware, which has
been favorable to maturing of late
crops. Up to the present week.
there was no frost sufficient to kill
the most tender vines, and just suf-
ficient rainfall to be beneficial for
wheat sowing and maintaining late
pasturage. It is to be expected that
killing frosts and even freezing tenn
peratures will be experienced by tb6
lower counties of Delaware, in the
ensuing fortnight; but the weather
of November which is to soon bring
to an end the growing pepiod for the
year, will have many beautiful days,
with the pleasant sunshine and
health giving atmosphere to enjoy
before the cold wind and SHOWS OF
winter close down. Until Thanks
giving has passed November weather
in Delaware is delightful. The bril-
liant colors of the woods, the gor-
geous sunsets, the call of the open,
all form ideal conditions for health
and activities out-of-doors in Della
ware.

MILFORD, FRIDAY, OCT. Is, 1926

IT is IMPORTANT that those who
are to act as Clerks, Judges or In
spectors at the general election to
be held in Delaware, on Tuesday
November End, shall meet twice, or
not less than once, on Monday pre-
ceding the election, and read over
together, just exactly what their du-
ties will be in organizing the cleo
ton. board at least one hour before
the time fixed for opening the polls.
1t must not be forgotten, that there
is much tc do in filling up forms to
qualify the Judges, the Clerks and
other persons authorized to be pres
ent in the voting room. The admin
istering of oaths, filling up the poll
lists, preparing the envelopes for
the voters to use, and a full under
standing of the duties of all con-
cerned, from the Inspector down to
the final finish of the count OF bal
lots and the making out of the cleo
ton returns, requires time. 1t can
not be done in an hour without pre-
vious study and preparation on the
part of the clerks and judges. Those
who. are directing the work, both

Chronicle Rppears the form of the
official ballot to be used at the cleo
ton on NCJEember 2nd, next, 1t is
printed as I required by law, by the
Clerk of %he Peace of Sussex County
and shows the form of the ballot,
with the party emblems and nomi-
nations for the various Offices. In
addition to this, the instructions"
and extracts from the election laws
of Delaware are printed in adjoining
columns, for such information as
may be required by the voters. The
sample" ballot printed today, and
which will be again printed in the
Milford Chronicle on October 29th,
happens to be for the First Election
District of the First Representative
District of Sussex County; which is
South Milford. 1t is complete in
every detail and is the same form for
all the ballots in the other twenty
one election districts in Sussex
County-with just one exception,
which is the names of the candidates
for State Senator, members of the
House of Representatives and In
spectors in the several districts, will
be those which were legally nomi-
mated by the two parties for such
districts. These names for the sew
etal districts, are printed following
the Sample" ballot form used in the
advertisement.
Those who want to prepare their
ballots and have them counted when
voted will have to study the in
structions carefully. Remember also,
that no mark, written or printed
word, other than what is on the bal
lots provided, can be made by any
voter. The name of a person who
it lis desired to vote, instead of the
one printed in the ballot, can not be
written-if it is so wrote, then that
ballot is lost and will not be count
ed by the election officers.
The "X" mark at the head of the
ballot. carries the intention of the
voter; he may, or may not make an
"X" in the square in front of each
name on the ballot he desires to
vote, and it would be counted just
the same; but, the one "X" mark in
the. boxing at the head of the ticket
in which the device of the party is,
will vote a straight vote for all the
candidates on that ballot. 1t is when
attempt to scratch a ticket is made
that trouble starts for the voter. 1t
can be done; but, it is not so easy
as it looks. Do not write on your
ballot; if you do, it will be thrown
out and your vote will be lost. If
you want to be sure, get some one
Milford chronicle., 1926-10-22

who knows how to mark ballot so
that it will be counted.
At each election in many districts,
there are ballots lost which were
voted by men and women, who are
intelligent, but who do not under
stand how to scratch a name and
vote another in its place.
Se@
IF PUBLIC SALES of farm equip
ment and discontinuance of farming
by farmers in lower Delaware, is a
criterion by which to gauge the pros
perity of farmers generally, then
the lesser number of such sales
which have been held this fall in
Kent and Sussex counties, clearly
indicates, that those who carry on
the farms are not in the serious
financial straits, which the polit-
clans announce, and the lackadaisl-
cal tiller of the soil proclaims every
once and so often. There are causes
where farming has not been sue
cess; but the individual is generally
at the bottom of his own trouble.
The first calamity howl this year
was over the failure of the pea crop;
but some growers failed 70 do as
others did, plant the same land to
lima beans, and get a greater money
return from this than they would
have gotten from a successful crop
of peas. The same applies in gen.
eral way. When a farmer found one
crop going bad, another crop in most
instances was made use of to re-
place the effort. Just the same, the
banks have large deposit accounts
in all parts of Delaware, and such
accounts are very largely owned by
farmers, who work with their heads
as well as their hands.
