The new milk station on the du.
Pont road is receiving about go cans
of milk each day, making a steady
increase with a good test. That
speaks well for the quality of milk
that is being sent. Edgar Quillen
calls each evening and delivers milk
to the station.
Recently number of COWS have
been purchased by farmers for milk
ers. There seems to be a very good
reason for saying that the station
will meet its quota of 12O cans by
September 1, 1880.
Levin Davis, near Dagsboro, re-
Gently purchased ten fine Guernsey
COWS.
Sudden death Of Mrs. Nellie Pep
per, of Cardington, Pa, was a shock
to our people. She was born in our
village and loved by all. Our SYM
pathy is extended to the family in
their sore trial and loss.
Miss Ellen Evans is still a very
patient sufferer.
Kingley Richards and wife, also
Miss Matte Belts, were weekend
visitors.
A very unexpected and pleasant
surprise party was rendered to
Stephen Derrickson on last Satur-
day evening las this was his 69th an
niversary of his birth. A cake was
beautifully decorated and covered
with SO candles, presented by Ida
Mae Calhoun. After the surprise
and merriment the evening was
spent in social way. Those at
tending were as follows: Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. Carey and grandson, Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Lathberry and sons,
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Steele, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Robinson and son, Mr.. and
Mrs. Ephraim Calhoun, Mr.. and Mrs.
David Simpler, Mr.. and Mrs. Ever
ett Godfrey, Mr.. and Frank Howard,
Mr.. and Mrs. Orville Quillen, Mrs.
Ida Hamilton, Mary Steele and Ada
Simpler. Our congratulations are
to Mr.. Derrickson and wish
he may have many more birth days.
But as to birthday parties, with such
a large attendance, it is a question
as to whether they have a tendency
to shorten or lengthen life.

.ion-David name the book in the !
center of the Bible.

libition when it says, wine is

ioever is deceived thereby is not |
wise" Also the drunkard cannot |
inherit the kingdom Of God.
