BUSINESS MEN SEEK TRAFFIC
SIGNAL LIGHT ON BOULEVARD

Smyrna Business Mems Associa-
tion met at the Fire Hall Friday
evening but was sparsely attended.
The election of officers, which was
to have taken place last Friday,
was postponed until the next regu-
lar meeting or when special
meeting would be called. Most of
the discussion was given to auto
mobile traffic. Owing to the large
number of accidents at the inter
section of Commerce Street and the
boulevard, the Association thought
it well to take the matter up with
the Delaware State Safety Council
or the State Highway Department
with the view of having trap sig
nal light at this intersection. The
Association asks other civic organ
izations in the town to use their
influence in this matter. Some
time ago Smyrna Town Council
took the matter up with the State
Highway Department, asking for
a light at the intersection of these
two busy thoroughfares, but the
Highway Department officials did
not deem it necessary. The acci-
Smyrna times., 1933-05-10

dent of Sunday last, when six were
taken to the Kent Hospital at Do
yer, cars were wrecked, and the
home of Miss Clara Leinberger en-
dangered, has brought the question
to the attention of the public with
more emphasis as to the need of
a safety signal at this important
highway intersection. Now that
Commerce Street is an interstate
thoroughfare from Maryland to the
Boulevard and the rehabilitation of
Woodland Beach is bringing about
increasing traffic at this intersec-
tion, Smyrna Business Mems Asso-
citation feel there is duty impos-
ed on the Delaware Safety Council
to intercede with the Highway De-
partment for a trap light at this
Commerce Street-Boulevard inter
section. If one is needed at Odes-
sa with much lighter traffic, surely
the growing traffic at Smyrna's
main entrance is needed. At the
close of the business meeting Fri
day the members of the Smyrna
Business Mems Association was
served with refreshments.

BISHOP VISITS
THIS VICINITY
Bishop Mcdowell Takes Part
in the Odessa Church Cen
tenniaI; Smyrna at Night
GETS A WARM GREETING

Bishop William F. Mcdowell, who
was in charge of the Washington
area of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, including Wilmington Con-
ference, but is now retired, was
in Smyrna on Sunday evening,
guest of Rev. DIR. and Mrs. j. L.
Johnson and addressed the evening
service of Asbury M. E. Church of
which DR.. Johnson is the pastor.
The service had to do with the pro-
gram of the Youth and Organiza-
tion movement and quite appropri-
ately he took for his subject
Friendship" 1t was the beginning
of a series of meetings to be given
Sunday nights. The Bishops talk
was impressive and full of homely
advice just such a sermon to kindle
interest in the youth of the church
The Bishop preached at Odessa in
the morning, the closing service in
the celebration of the one hundred
tn anniversary of st. Paul Methodist
Episcopal Church in Odessa. The
Bishop took for his subject 1--WE
Are All Debtors" When he had
concluded the opening service he
said IT am going to be a little bit
personal 1 want to pay a tribute
to the late Bishop Levi Scott. I
want permission to take all these
flowers with me this afternoon and
place them myself on the grave of
Bishop Scott. I never had the
privilege of meeting Bishop Scott
but know him and his many noble
examples set" The permission was
granted and in the afternoon
Bishop Mcdowell placed the flow
ers on the grave in the cemetery
adjoining Union ME. Church above
Blackbird. The Rev. Robert Frazer,
blind evangelist and gospel singer,
also Mrs. Frazer and their male
quartet who have been conducting
services at Odessa during the past
week, assisted again Sunday. Spec
ial music was given by the church
junior choir.

OLD BARRATTS
CHAPEL REPAIR
Reopened Sunday by Rev. B.
G. Warren Who Preached
His First Sermon There
USES TEXT OF So YRS.AGO

More than two hundred and fifty
persons Sunday attended the reop-
ening services of Barratt's Chapel,
the Cradle of Methodism," in Del
aware, following extensive repairs
to the old building. The Rev. ]. H.
Wheedee, pastor of Magnolia ME.
Church, who is also in charge of
Barratt's Chapel, presided over the
ceremonies which were attended by
a number of visiting ministers. He
announced that the repairs to the
chapel cost 500, all of which has
been paid. A unique part of the
service was that the sermon, reded-
icating the church, was preached
by Rev. Benjamin c. Warren, a re-
tired New York divine, who recent
ly moved back to Delaware and To-
Gated at Rehoboth. Rev. Mr.. Mar
ren, who started in Wilmington
Conference and became a power in
the ministry when boy of 16, in
1875, preached his first sermon in
Barratt's Chapel and Sunday used
for his text the same one he used
on that occasion. The text was
the 18th verse of the third chapter
of Genesis: "And I will put enmity
between thee and the women and
between thy seed and her seed; and
it shall bruise thy head, and thou
shall bruise his heel" During his
sermon Mr.. Warren referred to the
present day situation which he de-
clared to be a great crisis. He said
the question was between democ-
racy and a dictatorship and urged
all to stick to a democracy. Among
the visiting ministers were the Rev.
N. @. Benson, of Frederica; the
Rev. E. H. Collins, of Harrington.
