Shooting Ducks

Our sportsmen have been busy the
past few days, shooting ducks. The
weather has not been good for such
sport, and the bags of game which
they have been able to bring home
has not been very large. Our towns
men, Davis C. Draper, Harvey 7.
Smith and Paul Smith, seem to be
the most successful in bagging
ducks of any of our people UP to
date.
Moved
Some of the people of Glendale
have been exchanging residences the
past week. J. S. Short, Jr., moved
from the bungalow which he sold to
Weldon DickersOn and occupied an
other which he owned, both on Will
low street. Robert Short moved from
the Short bungalow to a farm which
he owns near town. Harvey Cover
dale occupies the residence on
Washington street, which he bought
of John r. Warren. and Prof. Ad-
kins moved from the Warren prop
erty to the bungalow occupied by
Weldon Dickerson and Mr.. Dicker-
son moved to the bungalow which he
bought of ]. S. Short, Jr.
New Bungalow
David Ellingsworth in a short time
will occupy a new bungalow which
he has had erected on Main street,
easterly side of the Pennsylvania
Railroad. Mr.. Ellingsworth will be
the seventh young man who have
built for themselves homes in the
past year-twO others have purchas-
ed home already built.
This is a pretty good showing for
a town the size of Glendale
The rows of neat bungalows add
much to the appearance of the town.
There are others who contemplate
building-get busy as lumber will
(like everything else) go higher.
Halloween
Halloween was not celebrated III
Ellendale as in former years. The
people seem to have lost their pep.
Most of the young people motored
to other towns where they had par
AIDES; a few were masked. The
youngsters engaged in some mis-
chievous work, removing door steps,
gates, etc. AS far as Glendale was
concerned it was very slim affair.
Some Things You Should Know
November 80 will be Thanksgiving
Day, not November 2S, as the writer
announced last week. Get your tur-
key ready.
When Grover Cleveland was Pres
ident of the United States, he wrote
to a friend that he would be unable
10 attend an important meeting as
he had Congress on his hands.
The sympathy of the people of the
State will go out to Governor Buck
for he certainly has the Legislature
on his hands and when he will be
able to get clear of them is a prob
lem which will be hard to answer
We congratulate the Hon. Ralph
S. Baker on having received the
election as chairman of the Sussex
County Democratic Committee. Mr..
Baker, though young in years, can
if he will, help to make the Demo-
cratic party as far as Sussex coun-
ty is concerned, one of retrenchment
and reform along all lines.
