R0TARIANS HEAR MIR.
WILLIAM SMITH

AT the regular meeting of the Mil
ford Rotary Club Monday noon, Ro-
tartan William Smith, delivered a
very interesting talk regarding his
recent trip to Bermuda. The trip
from New York to Bermuda, by
boat, requires about forty-eight
hours. Some of the interesting facts
related by Mr.. Smith are: Auto
mobiles are not allowed on the Is
land except a few trucks which are
owned by the government, the beach
is composed of sand almost as fine
as talcum powder, the water is very
clear, and the backbone of the in
dustrial system is the growing of
lily bulbs. Mr.. Smith discussed in
his exciting, Characteristic, and Wit
alizing manner the atmosphere Gre
ated by the numerous honeymoon
ers druing the entire trip.
Rotarians John w. Thought, Lau-
rel, Del, and Capt Maull, -Lewes,
Del, were visitors at this meeting.

lace but for public service. Mrs. Will
liam Warren closed the program

bers then adjourned to the yard
where a holly tree, the gift of the

in memory of Mrs. Mabel Lewis, who
passed on in August, 1881. America

poem, Trees, and the singing of
'Blest Be the Tie That Binds" con-
cluded the ceremony.

Clendaniel being reinstated. Plans

DECISION ASKED
OF LEGALITY OF
THE OYSTER LAW
CConfiuucd from First Page]

State authorities but the Federal
authorities as well are placed in
the position of condemning all Oy-
sters for shipments and further or
dering prosecutions of violators of
the law.
Acknowledgement Satterthwaite is
to be consulted as to the legality of
the act passed by the Legislature,
and as soon as his reply is received,
the oysteTman and packers will be
in a position to know just what their
status is.
r. E. Tarbert, Federal sanitary
engineer, who was in Dover on Tues
day of last week, and conferred with
the oystermen and Drs. JOst and
Beckett, made it plain to the OYSTER
men that the Government would rot
oppose the taking of oysters from
the creeks and rivers in lower Del
aware for seed and replanting pur-
poses. They could not be taken out
for food consumption, he said.

LAMB ROLL
Minced lamb
Biscuit dough
Gravy or white saul

Gravy or white sauce
Make up batch of biscuit dough
and roll it out to a thickness of
about one-half inch. Mix the lamb
with enough gravy or medium thick
white sauce to moisten it we'll, and
taste to see if it needs any seaSOn-
ing. A dash of Worcestershire, a
minced onion or a little more salt
will perhaps give the meat mixture
that extra dash of flavor which
makes all the difference between
something merely nourishing.
Spread the meat mixture on the
dough and roll up like a jelly roll.
Place in creased pan and bake in
electric range oven at moderate
heat until dough is a golden brown.
Serve, cut in slives, and cover with
more gravy or with medium white
sauce to which a few chopped cook
ed mushrooms have been added.
You do not need potatoes with this
dish. Any other meat may be sub
stituted for the lamb.

6-HOUR DAY ORDERED
FOR DU POINT CONCERNS
rCOntinned from First Pagel

The plants of the companies, To-
Gated at Buffalo, Richmond and
Waynesboro, Va, and Old Hickory,
Tenn, now employ about 10000 per-
sons. The reduction in the working
hours will make it possible to add
from 10 to Is per cent more names
to the payrolls, thus insuring wild
er distribution OF wages.
The exact number of additional
employees to be taken on at the va
rious plants will depend on local con-
ditions and the class of work done
in the several departments.
The change is to be made as rapid
ly as plant operations can be ad
justed to new conditions and addi-
tional workers engaged. 1t is ex-.
pected that it will be in complete
operation within a short time.

Any number of town folks went
to Annapolis on Saturday to
see the Navy play Delaware.
Even though the high score was
not on the Delaware side, one
could not feel badly about it
because it was a good game.
And the trip was some cOmpen-
sation. Most of the people from
here went to Matapeak, and
from there completed the trip
by ferry over the Chesapeake
Bay to Annapolis. Going over,
the thing of particular interest
was the presence of the battle
ship Arkansas and two de-
strOyeTs, nOnchalantly riding
the waves. Later one learned
they were awaiting President
HOover's pleasure to take him
and his party to the Yorktown
celebration. Yes, it was a good
day, defeat and all.

Steady CantaIOupe Market

The moderate carlot supply of
cantaloupes in late August led to a
steady range of prices in most mar
kets, although demand was still re-
ported slow. The bulk of receipts
are coming from western sources
but numerous local supplies are Of
fered in eastern markets. Maryland
and Delaware cantaloupes sell at SO
to rs cents per fiat crate in New
York and New Jersey cantalOupes
bring 40 to so cents in Philadelphia.
The watermelon season is taper
ing down to more moderate supplies
but new receipts are reported still
liberal at many of the markets. De-
mand, as usual near the end of the
season, is becoming slack. Prices
show little or no general advance
from the seasons prevailing low
levels. Sales, unit basis, range any
where from 5 to 40 cents in the
large eastern markets.
