WORLD SERIES BOOSTED
DELMARVA PENINSULA
rCOntinGea from Firsi Paeel


, formed that Del-Mar-Va, where Jim
: my resides, is the garden spot of the
universe and therefore quite natur-
ally has produced a superior base
! ball player.
Mr.. Totten states that the compli-
mentary statements regarding the
Peninsula brought several direct in
quiries for further information with
in very few hours after being broad
cast The fact that one of the an
nOuncers enlarged upon his remarks
I relative to the world series hero by
mentioning that two other Del-Mar-
Va boys are making good in the big
league created wide spread interest.
They are Dick Porter, of Allen, Md,
playing with Cleveland, and Jake
Flowers, of Cambridge, with the
Brooklyn team.
The announcers did not forget
Frank Baker, also a resident of Del
Mar-Va and living at Trappe, near
EastOn. They mentioned him as an
other stellar product in the baseball
world from the Eastern Shore and
recalled his having been with the
Athletics during their previous win
ming of the world series. He was
member of the so-called million
Dollar Infield" at that time.
AS an incident in connection with
this publicity, visitor from New
York State who has been touring
the Peninsula and who heard the
radio reference while on the PENN
sula Immediately suggested that the
Del-Mar-Va Association feature all
future literature by emphasizing that
the soil, climate and general condi-
tions produca as their most valu-
able crop the finest type of baseball
players on record. He mentioned
that many ardent baseball fans
would undoubtedly become interest
ed to the extent that they would take
up their residence in Del-Mar-Va so
that their sons might be raised under
conditions which would at least get
them away to the proper start to be-
come Future Greats"

DELAWARE HAS LOW
FIRE INSURANCE RATE
[Continned from First Paqel

lightning, defective chimneys and
heating apparatus, matches and
smoking, combustible roofs, spon-
taneOus combustion, gasoline and
kerosene, and electricity are the
causes of most farm fires.
The total loss from farm fires
amounts to approximately $3.50, ,000,
600 a year in property destroyed and
$500 lives sacrificed to the greed of
the red fiend who marches in the
wake of carelessness and neglect.
Every time the sun goes down near
ly a half million dollars worth of
farm property goes up in smoke.
During the winter, when stoves,
furnaces and other heating equip
ment are in use, when the farmer
and his family do most of their
chores after dark by the light of
lanterns, when much hay, grain,
straw and other combustible mate
rials are stored in the buildings, the
hazards of fire are greatly increased
and it is we'll to give consideration
to the subject of fire prevention. Not
that the subject may be ignored at
other seasons of the year, for it
should not be. The menace of fire
is ever present on the farm as well
as in the city. Whenever fire is made
for whatever purpose, there is al
ways the danger that it will get out
of bounds and become an arch de-
stroyer.
Using kerosene to start the fire in
the kitchen stove is extremely dam
gerous. Many serious confagrations
with loss of life and property have
resulted from the explosions caused
by this practice. Lanterns careless
ly used about the barn may be upset
or kicked over by live stock. Damp
hay or straw may ignite spOntan-
eously. Unrodded buildings are apt
to be struck by lightning.
Then there are matches. A match,
you know, has a head but no brains.
You have to think for it. A cigar
cite is persistent in carrying out its
purpose of burning and making
smoke, but it has no conscience as
to how, when or where. Matches and
cigarettes have much to answer for
in the matter of destruction of life
and property. These are but few
of the numerous hazards about every
farm.
Fire can quickly destroy the work
and accumulation of a lifetime of
effort and saving. Property that is
burned is lost forever. 1t goes up
in smoke and all that is left are
ashes and vain regrets.

DOVER HOSPITAL In
HEALTHY CONDITION
rCortinued from First Pnnel

hospital work is further shown by
the days service and daily average
of patients. For the first year, there
were 5,436 days of service; for the
year just ended, 6,979. During the
/ first year of the life of the hospi-
tai, the daily average of patients at
the institution was 14.7, and dur
ing the year just ended, it was 1872.
For an institution of this charac-
ter, the operating loss has been
lower than the public had been led
to believe might be possible. The
loss for the year just ended was
| $4,56223. This comparatively low
figure has been brought about by
an economical administration by the
superintendent, and the very much
appreciated assistance of the WO-
mems Auxiliary of the hospital.
During the past year, the auxiliary
has contributed in cash $2,500 TO-
ward the operating expenses of the
hospital, and in addition to this, the
auxiliary hass contributed in many
ways toward the upkeep of supplies,
and upkeep of the grounds. Great
credit is also due the superinten-
dent, Miss Ruth Cooper, who has
been with the Kent General HOspi-
tai since it's opening, first as
member of the staff of nurses, then
as acting superintendent, and at the
present time, superintendent.
In connection with the very fine
service which Kent General HoSpi-
tai is rendering the community, the
public will be interested in annual
national hospital donation day,
which will fall on November IL. 1t
is hoped that every resident of Kent
county will donate something to the
hospital at this time. All kinds of
canned goods, jellies, preserves, and
such commodities as apples, pota-
toes, turnips, or in fact, anything
that is commonly used in the home,
will be very acceptable. Soap, par
ticularly Ivory soap, is needed in
considerable quantity. There is al
ways a use for linen and towels Of
all kinds, and money is always ac-
ceptable. 1t is hoped that this will
be made a real donation day for
the hospital.
Henry D. Dorzback, Wilmer T.
Derickson and Mrs. Robert ]. Fer
guson, who is president of the hos
pital auxiliary, were named spe-
cial committee for donation day.
Mrs. Ferguson will probably ap-
point a member, or members, of the
auxiliary to serve on this commit
tee. Notices will appear in the
press from time to time concerning
the occasion, and it is proposed to
have posters printed for distribution
to the stores, and perhaps it will
be possible to distribute some ad-
vertising through the schools, and
direct to the homes.

POULlRYMEN WILL
TOUR SUSSEX SOON
[COntinned from First Page1

A great amount of interest has
been shown in former years in these
state poultry tours, and it is eX-
pected that many of the poultry
raisers will take advantage of this
opportunity again this year to visit
these poultry farms in different sec
tions of the state and inspect the
various methods which are being
followed by these growers in the
raising of broilers and layers on a
profitable basis in the face of the
present depression in the poultry
industry.
In order that reservations may be
made in advance for the banquet on
the evening of October 20, those
who expect to attend this affair are
requested to get in touch with the
county agents office in their re-
spective counties where tickets may
be obtained.
