Methodist Church

There are but two kinds of worship
known to man-the kind exemplified
by Herod, which would destroy and
eliminate Christ the Savior, and the
kind exemplified by the Wise Men
which seeks for, finds, and centers
everything on Christ the Lord. The two
kinds may be varieHsiy expressed,
especially the Herod kind but the point
of divergence is here: Christ regnant
within, or Christ ruled out.

AUTUMN ACTIVITIES

See the new caption! And il
really is time for it, even though it
is hard to realize. Sometimes we
have summer weather in a fall
month and this one started out ra-
ther well along that line, but the
nights are cool and wraps feel very
comfortable then. Monday being
Labor Day, play time is over for the
most of us and a buckling down to
effort of some kind happens after
that. School for the young, jobs for
the older folk. Whatever it is, it
should be done with a will after a
pleasant vacation.

The garden and yard of Mr.. and

now it is State wide. This week, on
Wednesday to be exact, they were
awarded $50 and flag for having
the best kept yard and garden in
any town on the boulevard between

to return their car to the inspection
station where it was examined and
receive a duplicate, which will be
issued on exhibition of the pocket
receipt card issued at the time of
the inspection.
Mr.. Mack points out that the State
Motor Vehicle Code clearly sets forth
the conditions of brakes, headlights
and other factors of the motor We
hicle, and that the absence of the
blue windshield sticker, indicating
that the car has passed the recent
state test, can logically be consid
cred prima facia evidence of the
failure of the motorist to comply
with the law. If inspection of the
vehicle indicates cOnclusively that
the car is in an unsafe condition, the
mOtorist will be arrested for oper-
ating his car contrary to the pro-
visions of the Code.
With 80 motor vehicle fatalities in
Delaware, outside the City of Will

"a in the corresponding period last
year, the State Highway Department
feels it's obligations to use every
legitimate means as to disposal to
control the motor vehicle accident
problem.

privilege of getting the fruit free.
+ He regretted that the charitable or
CARNATIONS had not take advantage
of the offer and gathered the fruit
for distribution among the poor.
Automobiles were present in large
numbers from Pennsylvania and
Maryland but very few from Della
ware or New Jersey. One party at the
Newton orchards was from as far
north as Sunbury, Pa.
At the orchards of Layton and
Owens large thrOngs of visitors were
out early and most of them were
provided with boxes and bags in
which they placed the fruit. In
cases where the pickers had no re-
ceptacles in which to carryl the fruit
they were provided with baskets for
which they paid 10 cents each and
hundreds of baskets were sold.
The fruit is of the Alberta variety
and the rains of the past few weeks
has forced the grow tn and the grow
ers said that the prevailing low
price of 40c a bushel prohibited
their picking and Grating for mar
ket as the returns would not be
profitable.
The fruit of fine size and grow
ers said that while it would not last
for more than five days after pick
ing, it was fine for canning and it
was felt it would be better to give
the fruit away than to permit it to
spoil on the trees.
During the day the orchards rang
with the shouts of hundreds of chill
dren, many of whom ate their fill
of peaches for the first time in their
lives.
During the height of the traffic
on the highways, which was unsual-
ly heavy, State olicemen kept the

required in wedding and cutting the
lawn, Mr.. and Mrs. Collins personal
/ ly drew the plans and actually
planted the flowers, hedges ans
shrubbery, and are much interested
and enthusiastic in the appearance
of their garden. The grounds extend
about 100 feet to the rear of the
! house and contain perennials of all
kinds, lovely lockwood, some quite
old and others just recently reset.
Mrs. Collins has arranged her gar
den so that there will be some kind
of flower in continual bloom from
early spring until late autumn.
Mr.. and Mrs. Colt have owned
their farm about two years and have
made many improvements on it in
that time. 1t is on the east side of
the dual highway just south of the
road leading to Mt. Pleasant. About
week after purchasing the farm,
the barn and all Outbuildings except
one were burned and have been re-
placed by new ones. The garden,
which contains both vegetables and
flowers, is arranged in splendid
cOlOring, and was decided the best
kept along the highway.
Mr.. and Mrs. Haas leased the fill
ing station south of the CheswOld
road in May, for five years. There
are few signs on the place and Mr..
Haas advised the committee that he
does not intend to add any, in fact,
he is considering removing some
that are there.
The committee appointed by the
Governor to choose the winners
was composed of Mrs. Mckinley, of
Newark, who is State leader of home
economics in the extension work of
the University of Delaware, repre-
senting New Castle county; Mrs
William Poole, of Harrington, who
has charge of the floral department
at the Kent-Sussex Fair, and raises
many flowers for sale, representing !
Kent county, and Mrs. Malloy c. |
Vaughn, of near LeWes, who is a |
leader in her community and has |
been instrumental in interesting |
many in improving the highway and |
home gardens in her section, repre- |
senting Sussex county.
The committee was not instructed |
to give one prize in each county, but |
the members are gratified that it
worked out that way. A number of |
prospects of awards, were visited,
and a personal visit made to each
family by the committee.
The awards were made Wednes-
day by the committee at the Colt
farm about IL o'clock, the Haas
family shortly after noon and at the
Collins family in the afternoon.
Many friends attended the presenta-
ion exercises.
One prize donated by Mrs. Henry
B. Thompson was given last year
ior the best kept farm and WAS
awarded to the Gray family whose
home is opposite Barratt's Chapel

the church and have a song service
and sermon by the minister in
charge of the church. Some times
relatives of the late John Salmons
bring minister with them to par
ticipate in the days observance and
deliver a sermon.
Many of the descendants attended
the reunion from Philadelphia, Ches-
ter, Darby, Marcus Hook, Pa, and
different sections of the Eastern
Shore of Maryland.
Mr.. Salmons is buried in the Da-
wilson burial grounds, a short dis
tance from the church.
These reunions always have a
prominent setting, because they are
held at one of lower Delaware's his
toric shrines.

vival meetings, during which hun
