DelcO-Light Company
Has New System
Harry B. Shaw, Local Dealer,
Handling Installation Of
Newest Plant

An electric light and power plant
\ " the farm, which operates without
storage batteries, automatically sup
plies light and power instantly and
sells at price that places it within
reach of every farm owner in the
United States is being announced this
week by the Delco-Light Company
Dayton Ohio.
Harry B. Shaw is the local Delco-
Light dealer, handling the sale and
installation of this newest plant.
In presenting the new Model 75O
Automatic Delco-Light, the Company
has eliminated the use of storage bat
teries and added new features to the
generator which simplify its opera
ton. The result is a plant which can
Ibe installed for several hundred dol
lars less than the battery equipped
model of approximately the same ca
pacity.
With installation of this new model,
electric light and power is available
at the turn of switch. The general
ing unit is started automatically
whenever light or power switch is
turned on and continues to operate
until the switch is turned off, when
the plant stops. The generating unit
furnishes the current direct to the
lights or motor equipment.
When the last light is turned off,
the plant stops automatically. The
plant of course, is self cranking, cur
rent for starting being supplied by
small acknowledges battery.
For use with automatic motor
equipment, such as Frigidaire, Delco.
Light Water systems, etc., the outfit
is ideal. Opening the faucet at the
kitchen sink, or any place where
water is required, will start the plant.
Just as soon as the pump switch cuts
in, the plant is started. AS long as
water is being used the plant contin-
ues, to operate. When the faucet il
closed, the plant stops. The operation
with the Frigidaire electric refriger-
ator motor is just the same. When
current is required, the plant oper-
ates. When, it is no longer needed, it
stops.
The new model $50 Automatic Del
co-Light plant has an output of 750
watts, sufficient to handle two one
fourth horse power motors at the
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1926-04-24

same time, with a reserve of 200
watts for lights.
"On account of the amazingly low
price of this plant, we feel that we
have at last placed electric light and
power within reach of every farm
cwner in the United States" declared
E. G. Biechler, president of the Delco-
Light Company, when Model $50 was
exhibited for the first time at a con-
vention of Delco-Light dealers last
week.
Here is a plant that is absolutely
the last word in engineering and at
the same time is so simple in princi-
pie and design that any housewife can
take care Of it. And it is being offer
ed at most attractive price.

Only rs days separate the fans and
the new team, which will represent
the Spuds in the Eastern Shore League
this season. May 10th, both the
youngsters and the veterans are ex-
pected to come to town and hang up
their hats for a time at least. Mana
ger Barnes has already arranged two
exhibition games with strong teams
of the Maryland Division Of the P. r.
K. for May Is and %.
Skipper Clark for the Spuds is
leaving no stone unturned in securing
players of considerable experience
and ability to represent the "baby''
town on the field this year. It is not
known at this time how many of he
hold overs will be seen back again.
Charlie Fitchberger, who has been
rturned by the Syracuse club for an
other years seasoning, will be seen
governing around first base, to. the de-
light of his many friends in Parksley
locality.
The two last season main-stays in
the pitching department, John Firth
antd Joe Miller, will be back in the
fold. Those two pitchers were known
as iron. men and their work stood out
above all twirlers in the league. Firth,
being one of the pitchers to win over
20 ball games in minor league base
ball last year. Miller established a
record for the league by pitching 80
consecutive scoreless innings.
Clark reports that st. Martin, the
leading swatsmith and home run king
Of the Eastern Shore League during
the 1925 season has not yet sent in
his contract; but will be seen again in
the outer garden.
Pete Stack, the promising young.
catcher, Baltimore boy, who did
second line duty last season will also
return. Clark looks upon this boy as
a splendid prospect.

1924 and last year hold out, will

Yet so hearty and so uncompromis-
ing are Sir Thomas's repeated express
sions of satisfaction. with American
craftsmanship as exhibited toward
him as the challenger, so fine, in
short, is his own craftsmanship, that
there will be genuine desire on the
American public that his expected
challenge for a race next year be ac-
cepted. with enthusiasm by those who
are in a position to accept it, and that
the business of preparing for the de-
tense be gone at with seriousness.
Such an outcome would mean reviv-
al of interest in yachting, which, of
course, is one of the most picturesque
and thrilling of sports.
1t should be, possible, however, so
to arrange the conditions Of the cup
contest that the contenders shall be

the rapid development of motor boats
and with the great possibilities now
adays Of pleasure travel by land it is
perhaps too much to hope that the
big sail boat will again come into its
own, but modern mechanical wonders
should not be allowed to close the
memory to the real pleasures that
were enjoyed with more primitive e.
auipment, and can be enjoyed again.
The feeling that races for the Ameri-
cas- cup will pass with the eventual
passing of Sir Thomas reflects the
more strenuous age that has succeeded
the one in which the historic schooner
brought its famous trophy from over
seas. A better age, this, in many re-
spects, but one in which some things
worth preserving have been lost.

be back in his old position. Mike states
he is much improved ball player
over the 1924 season. This should be
good news for the fans as they will
remember he was the leading pilfer
of bases.
Among the new players that Man
ager Clark has signed, little is known
Of them by the officials of the club,
except Pea Head Walker who was the
leading short stop in the Virginia
league last year, with a batting aver
age of 329, and Frank O'Brien, second
haseman, who failed to report last
season.
Manager Clark has been slow in
signing players whom he doubts could
make the grade and by so doing will
save the club. considerable money in
transportation and training expenses.
The officials feel that when the cur
tain rises for the opening Of the 1925
season, Manager Clark will have on
the field a team that will reflect
credit to Parksley and the Easern
Shore League.

The Springfield, Massachusetts,,
Republican contains the following
editorial concerning Sir Thomas Lip
tons next attempt to lift the Ameri-
cas- cup:
"It has been many years now since
the Americas cup races began to be
confined to occasional contests be-
tween a challenging Shamrock enter
ed by Sir Thomas Upton and an A
merican yacht built in compliance
with tacit understanding that the
Irishman should again and once
again be given a chance to Gift the
cup" Under such circumstances the
contests as genuine sporting events
appealing vigorously to friendly in
ternational rivalry have necessarily
lost much of heir old glamor. It is
hardly a secret or a scandal that a
great many Americans would really
like to have the old man win; Of
course, by having the better boat, or
a boat more skillfully manoeuvered.
