It is pleasing to note that
strangers coming to Smyrna
go away much impressed
with Smyrna, its fine streets,
its banks, schools and post
office, and its up-to-date fire
hall. 1t is nice to get these
compliments and Smyrna
should feel proud. Smyrna is
a delightful place in which to
live and no town in the State
commensurate with its popu-
lation, can boast of better in
stitutions. Such praise so
frequently said about our mu-
nicipality should spur Smyrna
on to greater efforts. Smyrna
needs more live and up-to-
date industries. Smyrna
needs and should not have to
depend on nearby towns for
up-to-date talkies, organ and
moving picture entertain
ments. Smyrna is large
enough to have a modern
moving picture theatre of it's
own. Let us hope it will be
realized. There is much more
Smyrna might accomplish.
Let us push forward and be
progressive for anything for
the good of the town.

The recent report that the
Penn Ferry Company will op-
crate a ferry between Gran
than Lane at Deemer Beach
Park and Penn Beach, N. j.,
calls to mind, says the Morn
ing News, the various ferry
companies connecting this
region with New Jersey, just
as the ferry companies con-
meet Philadelphia and New
Jersey. In the latter instance
the ferries are supplemented
by a bridge crossing the Della
ware River. Efforts are un-
der way for a bridge connect
ing Wilmington with New
Jersey, so that this State
shall have the same facilities
that Pennsylvania enjoys.
Congress eventually should
be won over, whether it be
for a bridge or a tunnel. The
tunnel proposition seems to
be too costly to consider,
though in many cases more
ideal, but whether a tunnel or
bridge, it is going to mean
much to this section in reach
ing South Jersey and its fam
Gus ocean resorts.

After completing it's fourth
after completing its fourth
year, the Del-Mar-Va East
ern Shore Association has
fully justified its existence.
1t was apparent, also, view
ing matters in retrospect
and considering the pres
ent status of each phase
of the organizations work,
that in the four years it has
not only proved that it is nee
essary to the well being of
the Peninsula, but, furth-
ermore, that it is on a sub
stantial foundation. "This is
a pleasing situation" COM
ments the Every Evening,
"and, what is even more graf
flying, is the fact that a very
large group, representing the
substantial business interests
Of the entire territory, is
standing back of the associa-
ton, in everything it does,
and is providing the financial
support. While it is true that
it has not had the means to
do everything it would like to
do, yet the funds it has at its
disposal have made possible
the accomplishment of many
things beneficial to the people
of the whole area it repre-
sents that could not be done
without this help.
"An incidental, but very i'm
portant, achievement is found
in the fact that the associa-
tion has obliterated state
lines and that it has unified
all interests between the Del
aware and Chesapeake bays.
Now, as a result, the people
are thinking in terms of Del
Mar-Va. All are working for
the good of all.
''In planning the work for
the coming year a good start
has been made through the
election to the presidency of
former Senator Louis A.
Drexler of Dover. Mr.. Drex-
Ter is an enthusiastic advo-
cate of everything for which
the association stands. He is
thoroughly acquainted with
the peninsula and its people
and knows their needs. He is
a man of recognized business
ability, and one who finds
pleasure in doing what he can
for the benefit of his fellow
citizens. The same is true of
the other officers chosen to
serve with him. They can be
counted upon to accomplish
much through energetic, in
telligent and unified effort,
and they are entitled to the
help and encouragement of all
in whose interest they are
