Edmond B. Redden, postmaster at
Pennington, Kent county, Del, has
been displaced by Harvey Hill, the
postoffice department announced
last week.
Redden, it was said at the depart
ment, was removed after complaints
had been made by patrons that he
was grossly careless in the dis
charge of the duties of postmaster.
Upon receipt of complaints, the de-
partment dispatched an inspector to
the town, and the inspector sustain
ed allegations of patrons and rec
commended removal from office.
Congressman Robert G. Houston
was informed of the case, and after
looking into it, decided that the in
spector's recommendation was justi-
fed, and approved removal, 1t was
said at the department.

INFORMATION ABOUT
DEMAND FOR FRUIT

The Bureau of Markets, of the
State Board of Agriculture, at Do
yer, has just received a report COW
ering the number of carloads of var
ious fruits and vegetables unloaded
in several Pennsylvania cities during
the year 1926.
This report was supplied by the
Bureau of Markets at Harrisburg,
Pa. 1t is interesting to Delaware
growers and shippers because it
gives the total number of the var
ious commodities unlOaded in each
city and the number of cars which
were supplied by Delaware growers
and shippers. By careful compari-
son of these figures, Delaware ship
pers should be able to tell whether
or not there is a chance for them
to supply a greater percentage of the
products consumed in the cities
mentioned, and perhaps increase the
demand for Delaware products in
those cities which are not using a
considerable amount of Delaware
products.

is well, if she's fairly slim. For this art
less looking style is not so easy to wear

1t is usually good practice to pass a
no-trump bid when you have the lead;
but, like all rules, this has its excep-
tions. If you have such strong hand
that you have good chance for game,
there is no good reason to pass the no.
trump. Bid your hand and make bold
try for game. Then, again, there are
hands where the defense is doubtful
and double becomes advisable to find
out your partners suit. The following
hands were noted in one evenings play,
where a bid over no-trump on right
was obligatory.

OLD.TIME BUSINESS METHODS
UNDERGOING SEVERE ORDEAL
Competition in Industry, Coupled With Steady De.
cline in Commodity Prices and Controversies Over
Wages. Gives Rise to Troublesome Problems

NJ. Hudson, chief of the division of
simplified practices of the Depart
ment of Commerce, made the asser.
ton that there can be no question
that profits of the future must come
out of today's wastes"
Distribution Is facing new expert
ments where chain stores are project
ing delivery service, individual mer-
chants are competing in new ways to
please the public, and mail-order
houses are setting up retail stores.
And distribution is being studied as
never before with the idea of build
ing up a system of statistics for
wholesalers and retailers, whereby
they may chart their course of action
and know whether they are wasteful
or efficient. A series of tests in
selected cities is being conducted by
the Census Bureau in cooperation
with local organizations and the
Chamber Of Commerce of the United
States to determine what results are
possible in this line.
The new era Of competition un-
doubtedly will bring it's heartaches and
failures but in order to survive, as 1t
must, it eventually is sure to bring
forth benefits to producers. to dis.
tributors and to consumers alike.
