Assessments In Good Shape
The annual two weeks sitting of
the full board Of Sussex county as
SCISSORS the last two weeks in Feb
ruary for the adjustment of the
property assessment of Sussex
county has closed and now the as
sessment books will be made up.
The assessment of this county must
be in fine shape as there were very
few requests made for adjustments,
nothing to compare with few
years ago. Much credit is due the
board and their clerk for the con-
ditions of today.

of the firm of II. J. Conaway and |
Son, hardware dealers of this town,
celebrated his 52nd birthday ami |
versary last Tuesday by being on the !

Community Association A Success
The Georgetown Community AS
sociation is putting ON a drive for
membership. The children of the
Demonstration School and those OF
the Junior and Senior High Schools
are competing with each other and
prizes will be awarded by the asso-
citation to the room gaining the
greatest number of new members.
Each person joining the associa-
ton will be given a membership dis
play card, which is to be placed in
your door or window, so that solic-
TORS for membership will know that
you have already Joined. This will
save the solicitors time and you the
of being called on again.
Dues in the association are only
IS cents year. Surely Georgetown
wants the best association in the
state and it can have that only by
he cooperation of everyone inter-
ssted in the welfare of the commun-
ty.
