The mantel of sadness and be-
reavement has again fallen upon our
village. One of the oldest members
was called on last Saturday evening
at. o'clock to answer the summons
of the Heavenly Visitor. Benjamin
G.. Derrickson, a farmer, a widely
known citizen, a Christian gentle
man, loyal follower to the princi-
pies of democracy. A Charter mem
Der of the Millville lodge Junior Or
der of American Mechanics, with
strong affiliations in the Christian
church at Ocean View. Mr.. Derrick
son had been a patient sufferer for
six months. Ever conscious of the
approaching end, on Sunday evening,
January Goth, realizing the time was
getting short, he asked his family to
call his pastor, so he might enjoy
the sacrament of the Lords Supper.
This was done, the family participat-
ing, eliminating in real love feast,
testifying that he was ready to go
home when the call would come.
He was born on June 18th, 1851.
The son of the late Benjamin and
Nancy Derrickson. He leaves a wife,
Laura Derrickson; three sons, Har-
vey, John and Clarence, and five
daughters, Linda, Mary, Ollie, Della
and Carrie; also twelve grand chill
dren and two great-grandchildren.
Our sincere coincidence is extended
to the members of the family in their
loss, which was heavens gain. The
funeral service was held on last
Wednesday at o'clock in the Chris
tian church at Ocean View, Rev.
Jackson officiating. Interment in the
st. Georges M. E. cemetery.
Also Robert Daisy, a former boy
of our community, had made his
home in Philadelphia for number
of years, the son of Charles Daisy,
died in the Philadelphia hospital on
last Thursday. The body was
brought to the home of his sister,
Mrs. Edward Steele. The funeral
was held on Saturday afternoon at
p. m. at the house, Rev. Branford, of
the Bethel M. E. church, preached
the sermon and conducted the serv-
ice. Interment in the st. Georges
M. E. church cemetery.

ed to the family in their night of sor-
row, which will break forth in a

PROPOSED FERRY FROM LEWES
TO CAPE MAY POINT, n. J.

The activities toward promoting
the proposed Lewes, Del. to Cape
May Point, N. J. ferry line are still
under way is reported today by the
Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore Assocla-
ton.
At a meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce, at Camden, N. j., last
Thursday night, Messrs. Joseph F.
McSweeney, president of the Reho-
both Beach Kiwanis Club; Paul E..
Carpenter, president of the Lewes
Chamber of Commerce, and Edwin
C. Totten, executive secretary of the
Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore Associa-
tion, were invited for conference
which might be of assistance in aid
ing the New Jersey authorities to-
ward securing the necessary legisla-
ton on their side.
While no formal action was taken
at this conference, assurance was
given that Senator Reed and other
officials who introduced legislation
last year would again be active dur
ing the session this year and plans
were talked over whereby such leg
islation might concur with that
which was favorably acted upon IN
Delaware last year.
From the Peninsula point of view
the parties interested in establishing
the ferry service from Del-Mar-Va to
New Jersey are still actively inter-
ested and are awaiting upon the New
Jersey legislation which would pre-
vent any later hindrance to their pro-
posed plan of operation. A confer
ence at which facts will be present
ed to a representative of the New
Jersey legislative body was sched-
uled for last Saturday, February 1st,
in Wilmington. Material prepared
and compiled by the Del-Mar-Va
Eastern Shore Association will be
presented at that time and as it has
been accepted as authentic and OF
direct value, its weight in the action
of Ne New Jersey Legislature is an
ticivated to be effective.
Still later, a conference between
the Cape May County Chamber of
Commerce and it's officials, who ad-
vocate the ferry line, with the Re
hoboth and Lewes organizations and
a representative of the Del-Mar-Va
Association, is scheduled.

on Saturday evening. The regular
business meeting and reports were
first in order. Our treasurer report
ed that more than $500 had been put
into our treasurer during the year
1929, which indicates that through
the combined efforts of all the mem
bers of our society that last year
was the most prosperous year in the
history of our society. The officers
for the ensuing year were then
elected:
Mrs. Mary Townsend, president;
Mrs. Adella Richards, first vice-pres-
ident; Mrs. Harriet Pyle, second
vice-president; Mrs. Nora Town
send, secretary; Mrs. Lena Derrick
son, assistant secretary; Mrs. Flor
ence West, treasurer; Mrs. Edna

Nine new members were added to
our list. This proves that our So
ciety is growing in membership and
because of this and its prosperity
it is also growing to the end that
it can do either directly or indirect
ly, a greater work for our Divine
Father. We wont that his cause
shall be advanced to the fullest ex-
tent and it is only through hearty
and cheerful cooperation that it can
be accomplished. We then went to
the dining hall, where we found
awaiting us the following menu:

Of course every one enjoyed them
selves at that time. Then we soon
found ourselves leaving for home

CITIZENSHIP ISSUE
BEFORE HIGH COURT
Supreme Tribunal Again to
Pass on Oath Required to
Qualify Resident.

Bythe Associated Press,
Although the Supreme Court has said
It's say in emphatic fashion on the duty
OF an applicant for citizenship to take
unqualified oath to fight if need be for
the United States, II must pass on the
question again or leave it considerably
unsettled.
In the case of Rosika Schwimmer the
court last year decided such an oath
was necessary, but since then circuit
court of appeals has decided Douglas
Clyde Mcintosh, Yale theology profess
sor, and Marie Ayerill Bland, Canadian
war nurse. were entitled to citizenship
In spite of reservations regarding bear
ing arms
Status of Case Defined.
The Supreme Court is to decide
shortly whether it win take up the
Governments appeal and review these
cases. Should it decide not to review,
the decisions of the Court of Appeals
will stand, presenting to the eye of the
layman q decided contrast to the final
ruling in the Schwimmer case.
Mrs. Schwimmer, native OF Hungary,
lecturer, writer and liguist. applied for
citizenship in Illinois in 1925. Every
thing went well until she was asked II
she would personally bear arms in de-
fense of the United States. She re-
piled she would not because she was
an uncompromising pacifist She was
refused citizenship and appealed to the
Supreme Court
The court ruled against her, the ma
jority holding it was the citizens duty
to bear arms il necessary and that any
thing tending to lessen willingness to
fight in time of need weakened the
safety of the Government.
Three Justices Dissent
Justices Holmes, Brandeis and the
late Edward Terry Sanford dissented.
Justice Holmes observed In his opinion
that many citizens agree with the APP
plicants belief and l had not supposed
hitherto that we regretted our inability
10 expel them because they believe more
than some of us do in the teachings Of
the Sermon on the Mount
In the meantime, Macintosh and Miss
Bland, both Canadians, asked for citi-
nenship DIR. Macintosh said he was
willing to bear arms IN defense of the
country, but wanted to be the judge of
the necessity. Miss Bland, like Miss
6chwimmer, said she would not bear
arms personally believing 1t contrary
20 the ethics of Christ"
Court Ruling Reversed.
Both were refused citizenship in q
United States District Court, but the
second Circuit Cour of Appeals, despite
the .Schwimmer case decision, reversed
the lower court
In the case of Dr. Macintosh it said
there was a distinction between NOR
ally justified and an unjustlied war and
that recognition had been given this
distinction in the kellogg peace pact.
