Rev. Essell P. Thomas, religious
education; Warner w. Price, troop

scouts accompanied by their
scoutmaster, V. Wallace Elterich
Jr., left on Monday morning to go
camping near Massey's Mill, their
usual camping ground. They will
return home about Saturday. The
camp was thrown into considerable
excitement last evening when His
Majesty, a bull, on the Bedwell
farm, where the compers were To-
Gated, charged on the scouts, bel
lowing furiously and drove them
all to cover. The Scoutmaster, Ell
terich, and some others, climbed a
tree and the remaining took to
boats. No one was hurt but it

MARKET SLUMP IN BERRIES
HITS DOWN STATE FARMERS
BROKERS ON PENINSULA ES-
INNATE LOSS AT 100000
Slump in Market in New England
and Other Northern States Hits
Brokers Who Bought Acreage

Fruit brokers all over the Del
marva Peninsula have been hard
hit during the past two weeks in
the slump in tn strawberry mar
vets of Northern and New Eng
land cities, according to Seaford
broker, who heads one of the old
est fruit brokerage firms on this
peninsula. Heestimates their loss
es from 100000 to 100000 These
losses oc Cured on berries the
brokers had bought outright at the
point of shipment, and before they
reached tn markets prices fell to
such figures as to cause heavy
financial loss to the broker. There
were instances where the broker
paid as high as 81 per crate for
fancy berries which sold in the
markets as low as 81 per crate.
Other instances were those of ber-
ries bringing 81 per crate at point
of shipment and selling in the
markets for as low as 81 per crate.
This kept up for about two weeks
with the brokers being on the los
ing end almost every day. There
are said to be about 100 fruit
brokers on this peninsula, and
while some escaped big losses 9th
ers were caught for heavy losses.
There is scarcely one brokerage
firm that did not lose to some ex-
tent. After the strawberry deal
in North Carolina where the brok-
ers were lucky to break even they
entered the Delmarva Peninsula
hoping for a break in their favor,
and while the market held up for
awhile after their arrival here it
gradually slipped until the brokers
were caught in the sudden drop
in prices from day to day. Some
of the brokers returned to North
Carolina for the blackberry deal,
but this deal is also said to be
going badly.

EPISCOPALIANS JOIN IN THE
226TH JUBILEE ST. ANNE'S
NUMBER FROM SMYRNA MO-
TOR UP TO OLD SHRINE
Bishop Cook Delivers the Morning
Sermon and Dean GatesOn of
Bethlehem, Pa, Gives Address

A number of Smyrnians, mem
bers of st. Peters Parish, motored
up to near Middletown Sunday to
join the pilgrimage to Old st. An
mes Church in celebrating the
226th anniversary of the founding
of one of the oldest Episcopal
Churches in the Diocese. The Rt.
Rev. Philip Cook, Bishop of the
Diocese of Delaware, preached the
morning sermon. The Bishop gave
an able and vigorous discourse and
told the congregation that the
church of today lacks the mission
ary spirit of colonial times. He
said some parishes are tending to-
wards developing into exclusive So
cial organizations. ''The restless
ness of the present generation is
due to the fact that the majority
of people today lack a purpose in
life," he said. THE early colonists
worked together to achieve relig-
ious freedom and later to spread
the principles of liberty. Now we
are the wealthiest and strongest
nation in the world, but we lack a
largeness of ideas. We should take
up the teaching of peace and share
with the world the riches that are
at our hand. The narrow nation
alism of today is a selfish, individ-
ualistic attitude that must be over
come if we are to have peace, he
said. Bishop Cook was assisted in
the service by the rector of the
parish, the Rev. P. L. Donaghay,
D. D., and the Rev. Walden Pell,
End, M. A., headmaster of st. An
drew's Church School. Solos were
sung by John r. Dumler, and Jay
Davis.
Old Church and Church Yard
Several hundred visitors from all
sections of the country, number
from as far west as Kansas City,
Mo, thronged the ancient church
yard, with its quaint old tomb
stones, long before the service
started. Some spent the day there
eating their lunches on the broad
lawn in the rear of the historic
edifice. TIL is old church, which
generally is open only once a year
for the anniversary service, will be
used this year as the place of wor-
ship for the boys who will attend
the camp on Silver Lake near st.
Andrews School, the bishop an
nounced. The first service will be
held during week of July 6 when
the camp will open for the choir
boys of St. Johns Church in Will
mington.
Dean Gateson, Gives Address
At 8 o'clock the parishioners
again assembled in the ancient
structure this time to hear the
Very Rev. D. Wilmot Gateson, B.
A., dean of the Cathedral
Church of the Nativity of Bethle-
hem, Pa, and chaplain to Lehigh
University. Dean Gateson stressed
the debt the people of the present
owe to the past, showing the coun-
try was built on Puritan principles
from which the people of the pres
ent are drifting away. He urged
his hearers to remember the days
when ST. Anne's was built and the
spirit of its builders. The whole
nation must strive to regain that
spirit and to make the present age
as fine a one morally as that one
was. Bishop Cook, DR.. Donaghay
and Mr.. Pell also participated in
this service. The offertory anthem
was sung by Mrs. ]. D. Niles of
Townsend. Prominent among those
who were seen at the old church
was Governor c. Douglass Buck

OLD FORD THEATER
TO Be RENOVATED
Lincoln Relics to Be Housed
in Building Where PreSi-
dent Was Shot.

The Ford Theater, on Tenth street
near E street, will be renovated so that
1t may suitably house countless relics
of Abraham Lincoln.
Lieut.. Col. U. s. Grant, Sd, director
Of public buildings and public parks,
has made arrangements Tor painting
and cleaning the old Ford Theater, in
which Lincoln was shot. Lieut.. F. B.
Butler, assistant director Of the office.
announced today that renovation of the
Ford Theater would start shortly. It
will be made available, he said. for
the greater apart of the Lincoln collec-
ton now Housed across the street in
the building maintained for many
years as "a museum, until the Federal
Government purchased the Oldroyd
collection.
The Oldroyd collection, housed in
the house where Lincoln died. will be
moved into the Ford Theater at the
close of the tourist season this Fall.
Lieut.. Butler made it clear that the
collection will not be disturbed during
the Summer. The Lincoln relics are
crowded in their present location and
will be shown to much better advantage
in the Ford Theater.
The Lincoln Museum, now containing
the exhibit, is also owned by Uncle Sam
and after the major portion of the
collection has been moved across the
street it will still contain some of the
outstanding mernentos Of the Great
Emancipatcr.
Legislation pendAg in Congress re-
Gently, which failed of passage. was de-
signed to have the Ford Theater restored
to the same condition in which 1t was
the night Lincoln was shot there. This
legislation also proposed that quarters
for veterans organizations be made
available in the historic structure.
