GLENDALE
Easter Day

rived.
The trees, the grass and the flow
ers which were putting on thel
summer garb, to bid welcome to tn
day that was to commemorate tn
Resurrection of our Lord and say
Jour Jesus Christ.
In the Christian churches through
out the world women and mel
gathered on this memorable day ant
gave thanks to Him Who made the
sacrifice, which gave to those who
believe a Resurrected Christ.
We may say we believe thai
Christ was born in Bethlehem; we
may also say we think that He SUI
fered all the agonies allotted to Him
We may go farther and say we think
He suffered an ignOminous death
upon the cross-but we cannot stop
there-there must be an abiding
faith in the hearts of men that Jesus
not only suffered and died for the
sins of all, but that He rose from
the dead and ascended into Heaven
and is there today intercedlng Tor d
sinful world.
--~ The Bible stories told by the
Apostles Mark and John are such a
simple narrative of that which nap
pened that it should appeal to the
hearts of all women and women, and
prove to them without doubt that
the events which were there chron-
icled, were true in every respect.
1t is the same old story which has
been believed by faithful men and
women for nearly two thousand
years and will go on in that belief
until the end of time.
False prophets will arise and VIII
try to deceive the very illicit, but
those whose faith is rooted ana
grounded in the love of Christ need
have no fear. The Resurrected
Christ will come again. Be ye ready
to receive Him.
A greSSiVe Town
Most progressive people like to
see the town or village where they
reside look at its best at all times.
To do this all must take hand ana
try in every way to clean up their
own premises and induce others 10
do the same.
Some of the small streets and al
leys are allowed to grow up IN
weeds and to be the dumping place
for all accumulated trash which col
lects on the adjoining premises.
This looks bad and should be rem
edied. This state of things is not
only unsanitary but gives our town
an unsavory reputation as to the
unclean condition of its streets and
alleys.
ElIendale used to be noted for the
neatness of it's dwellings and the
fine condition of its front yard. Don't
let us do something that will prove
a detriment to the advancement OF
our town, and sometimes what we
do, may prove unattractive to the
passer-by.
The promiscuous throwing away
unon the streets of newspaper COW
ers, envelopes and other things OF
like nature, doesn't look very well
in an up-to-date town.
Officers Raised
A. T. Lark, Deputy Great Sachem,
of Seaford, accompanied by his stan
visited Ioka Tribe, No. S5, I. o. r.
M. on Monday night of last week
and raised the following officers:
-Prophe+, Chester w. Dickerson;
Sachem. Charles Nelbert; Senior
Sycamore, Walter Thomas; Junior
Sycamore, Robert P. Short; Chief OF
Records. J. Harry Dickerson; Keep
er of Wampum, Curtis W. Ennis;
Collector of Wampum, Robert wv
ems. After long talks by several OF
the visiting chiefs, refreshments
were served.
Not Much Progress
EIlendale doesn't seem to be MAX
ing much progress towards pecom-
ing a city. In the year 1920 the
nopulation of Glendale was 25O and
at the present census now being TAX
en- it is 26S. a gain of lS IN ten
years. At this rate it will be many
years before the youngest OF lhe
nresent inhabitants will be able to
announce that he halls from the City
of Ellendale. Several of the towns IN
the State are decreasing in popula-
ton, viz Frederick and Dagsboro;
and we suppose many more will
show the same results before the
entire census is finished.
