MEETS TWEEN
TIETH CENTURY IN "THE
ROUGH RIDERS"

Ghosts of yesteryear, spirits Of
men who made history, stalked thru
the echoes of a putting Jenny that
wheezed amid the clatter of jolting
car wheels recently when a day of
1898 was re-enacted in San Antonio,
/ Texas, while street cars and auto
mobiles streamed by a few yards
away.
AS crowd of motion picture ac-
tors in the dress of the nineteenth
century bid farewell to "The Rough
Riders" who were entraining for
their journey towards Cuba, the
strains of jazz band pouring from
a radio dealers loud speaker min
gled with the rousing notes of
"Therell be a Hot Time in the Old
Town Tonight" which the Para
mount orchestra played for the ac-
tors.
The external contrast of last gem
Grafton with the present was in
creased as hundreds Of bobbed hair
flappers mingled among the young
ladies of days gone by. Mary Astor,
in a tight-waisted skirt which was
all the rage a generation ago, chat
ted with a miss, whose arms were
bare and who wore knee-length
skirt.
It has been a long time since the |
old railway station, now abandoned, |
has felt the pressure of hundreds of
feet and its wooden platforms thrill
ed in Renaissance as Charles EN-
met Mack and Charles Farrell, the
two leading men, sought frantically
for the girl they both loved. There
was Theodore Roosevelt, portrayed
by Frank Hopper, grinning in his
beloved way while a score of traffic
policemen kept onlookers from in
with the work of Victor
film staff.
And while the motley crowd in a
inal burst of cheers and tears babe
heir blue-shirted heroes goodbye.
he cameras recorded another cpl
ode which sings in American his

DEL-MAR-VA WORK TO
BE OUTLINED MONDAY
TCOntinaed from frst taael

year program. Marked enthusiasm
and material support is reported
from all counties where these meet
1ngs are being conducted, and Off
Gals of the association are decided
ly optimistic as to the ultimate out
come. The meetings are a part of
the brief, business-like campaign to
| place the issues directly before the
people and ask their financial and
moral aid.
At the Milford meeting, Dr. Grier
will outline the detectives and flu
ture program of the association, and
Carl H. Monsees, of the headquar-
ters staff, will review activities of
the past.
The campaign throughout the pen
insula is we'll under way. President
Grier and other executives of the
association have been giving their
time and effort unstintingly. During
the last ten days leaders in the nor
them. section of the peninsula re-
port response equal, if not great
er, to that originally extended the
Association. In New Castle County
and the City of Wilmington the
leaders and active workers include
many of the most prominent bust
ness men and the campaign is MAX
ing impressive progress.
In western Sussex county, ]. Will
ey Thought, as Laurel chairman, and
Harry L. Cannon, as chairman-at
Br1dgeVille, report gratifying re-
suits in new memberships and
pledges of support. Sussex county
has been one of the strongest sup
porters of the Del-Mar-Va movement
and its leaders expect the county
will measure up, if not surpass its
original record.
Discussing the campaign at asso-
citation headquarters, DR.. F. B. Bonn
berger, executive director of admin
istration and marketing, said:
We are conducting a direct,
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. campaign
strictly on business basis. In so
doing we are obeying a mandate by
the people of the peninsula, who in
their recent vote determined contin-
uance of the association. Based on
this we are now asking citizens in |
each county to what extent they de-
sire the association to operate. We
expect to complete our campaign |
within short period, conducting it |
on money and time saving basis,
and are gratified in knowing that
results thus far give indication of
hearty support"

GRAPE GROWERS WILL
DISCUSS CROP PESTS
[C0ntinaed from az baael

LG0nItHned from JITSf PageI
a large number of these growers
will be in attendance.
DR.. Manns has been working witt
the black rot and other diseases in
this area for a number of years, and
by means of field and laboratory ex-
periments in addition to spraying
demonstrations in few of the COM
mercial vineyards, some very inter-
esting and valuable information has
been obtained in regard to the most
practical and effective methods of
control.
Among the insects that are becom-
ing troublesome in the vineyards in
Kent county, however, none has Civ
en- the growers more concern than
the grape berry moth which caused
thousands of dollars worth of dam
age to the grape crop last year. In
view of this situation, extensive
plans are being formulated by the
agricultural experiment station to
control this pest, and those growers
who attend the meeting next Thurs
day evening at the Caesar Rodney
school will have the opportunity to
learn something more about the
methods of control for this injurious
pest, as well as for other insects
which are infesting the grape vine
yards in the county.
Another difficulty which has con-
fronted the growers in some Sec
lions of the county within the past
year is the shattering of the grape
clusters about the time the fruit
was ripening. A careful study of
this trouble is being made by DR..
Manns with a view to determining
some effective means of CONTROL as
this shattering has resulted in a
loss to the grape crop |
in this area.
