The weather has been ideal. EV-
eryone is busy gathering in pump
kins, sweet potatoes, white potatoes
and turnips.
We heard some folks saying that
fall of the year is sad and dreary
in appearance; but on the other hand
if we consider the harvest that yields
a variety of vegetables and fruits, it
is a time of thanksgiving and re-
joicing.
The tomato crop has been good
and plentiful.
The revival services held at Rox-
ana have been well attended. The
church was crowded on Sunday
night. On Monday night a goodly
number were present and listened to
a searching sermon by Rev. o. T..
Baynard, whose subject was "Sin."
The Dagsboro minister, Rev.
Thomas, preached on Tuesday night;
the pastor from Frankford on We'd
nesday night; Rev. Davis of Selby-
Vile on Thursday night, and Rev.
Chas. w. Branford on Friday night.
On Sunday night, October 20. Rev.
Leonard White will preach. These
services are worthwhile and we are
losing when we do not take advan-
tage of these services.
