HALL ANDERSON'S
DAUGHTER DEAD
Former Lieut.. Governors
Daughter, Ann, Found
Hanging in Garage
HAD BEEN MELANCHOLY

Miss Ann Hall Anderson, 15-year-
old daughter of former Lieutenant
Governor and Mrs. ]. Hall Ander-
son, committed suicide Sunday
night, by hanging herself in a gar
age at the rear of her parents
home in Newark The only posi-
BILE motive that could be found for
her act was her melancholy condi-
ton over entering public school
after having had private tutors un-
til this year. 1t is also believed
that she was worried over the con-
dition of her father, who is a pa
tient at an Ardmore sanitorium,
suffering from a nervous break
down. Mr.. Anderson visited the
home Sunday, and shortly after he
returned to Ardmore, the daughter
disappeared Nothing further was
seen of her until her body was
found. She had recently returned
to Newark, where her family had
moved short time ago from Do
yer, from a years tour of Europe
with her mother. Most of her time
there was spent in Rome. Every
possible luxury was accorded her
on the trip, and her education was
carried on under the direction of a
private tutor. Upon her return,
however, she was entered as stu
dent at the Newark High School,
and since that time had been act
ing melancholy and depressed.
Shortly after school opened her
condition became such that she
was forced to remain at home for
several days. Sunday morning she
appeared in her usual spirits when
she attended services at st. Thom-

SMYRNA-CLAYTON
DAIRY FARMERS
Will Meet i'm Smyrna Fire Hall
Tomorrow Evening to Talk
Over Milk Situation
NEED FOR ORGANIZING

The milk situation in Delaware
and all states for that matter,
which has been agitating dairy
farmers, generally is no exception
to the Smyrna-Clayton community
and to learn more about conditions,
a meeting has been called for to-
morrow Thursday evening, to take
place in the Smyrna Fire Hall at
8 o'clock. If there ever was a
time when there was need for
farmers to cooperate and stick to-
gether, it is in these trying days of
the depression. Market prices are
low and little or no profit is OBJ
tained by the farmer. One of the
slumps the farmer has been feeling
and one on which he depended has
been his monthly milk check"
This has been dwindling in size
since the depression until there is
but scant profit by the time he
counts the cost of production.
Coupled with this are iron-clad
rules and regulations as to cool
ing" and grading that still furth-
er handicaps the average dairy
farmer. The result is that there is
urgent need for all dairy farmers
to stick together and assert their
rights. This can be done through
their cooperative home county,
State and National organizations
to the end that proper recognition
can be obtained. Therefore all
farmers in the Smyrna-Clayton
communities are urged to attend
the meeting tomorrow night to
learn what is doing" The COM
mittee in charge has secured Mr..
Frederick Shangle, vice-president
of the Interstate Milk Producers
4 Association to come to Smyrna to-
morrow and address local dairy
farmers and give them his story
of the milk situation and what the
organizations are doing. All dairy
men are urged to be present and
bring their wives or lady friends
with them. An interesting pro-
gram has been arranged in addi-
ton to the main address. There
will be a business meeting to elect
4 officers of the local association for
the ensuing year and delegates to
represent the Smyrna-Clayton or
ganization at the coming meeting
Of the National Dairymen's Asso-
citation to be held in Philadelphia
the latter part of November.
