LOCAL SCOUT
TROOP LEAVES
FOR CAMPING
Thirteen Members of Local Or
ganizatiOn To Spend Two
Weeks At Camp Rodney

Thirteen members of the local Boy
Scout Troop left on Sunday last for
Camp Rodney, located just where the
waters of the Chesapeake Bay and
Susquehanna and North East Rivers
join. The site is about nine miles
from the town of North East, Cecil
County.
The boys were transported in Mr..
Raymond Dryden's truck and those
who made the trip were. Edwin Du-
Bose, Wilson Hancock, Warne Little
ton, Howard Stevenson, John Powell,
Raymond Dryden, Curtis Callahan,
Frederick Holt, Paul Merrill, Edward
Farrell Bowen, James Coffman, Fred
erick Coffman and Vernon Davis.
Some of these will remain for one
week, others for two land one, Ray
mond Dryden, for one month.
There are lat present, thirty-nine
members of the Pocomoke organiza-
ton, and it is regrettable that more
cannot avail themselves of the OPP
portunity to see something of the
camp life. There is no better teach
er than the experience gained in one
of those Scout enterprises. The boys
are drilled in way to make them
better, both physically and morally.
A lad who seeks to profit by such
instruction has a fine start on the
road to good citizenship.
The play side of the youths gen.
eral makeup is not neglected; but he
is taught to get in the game, play
fair, and be good loser. There is
world of good results from a stay
under Boy Scout Camp training.

Mr.. EDGAR FONTAINE
STILL SHOWS WEAKNESS

Much to the regret of his many
friends and acquaintance, Mr.. Edgar
Fontaine does not show the improve
ment in health as they would like to
see.
Mr.. Fontaine's condition continues
to be critical; but his apparent strong
vitality has carried him to point
where it is hoped permanent improve
ment may follow. His rallies from
what looked like extremely serious
consequences have been encourage,
ment, but at present he manifests
much weakness.
An advanced age of sc years is, of
course, a handicap to rapid recovery;
but Mr.. Fontaine's excellent health
up to a short period ago, led many to
remark concerning his virility and
everybody is trusting change may
occur which will restore him to the
social and business circles of POGO
moke.

BALLOTINC!MAY
BRING ABOUT
RARE RESULTS
A Candidate For Judgeship May
Stand A Poor Third And
Yet Win
DEPUTY ATTORNEY MAKES
RULING ON MATTER

A candidate for one of the two as
sociate judgeship seats in the first
judicial circuit may run poor third
when all the ballots are counted and
still be seated on the bench, Deputy
Attorney Willis r. Jones has ruled
in an Interpretation of the State con-
sitution announced this week by A.
Everett Williams, Attorney to the
Wicomico Board Of elections super
visors.
The county Boards Attorney re-
quested an application to the first
circuits judgeship situation of the
constitutional clause which prohibits
election of two associate judges from
the same county.
Worcester has two democratic cam
didates, Franklin Upshur, Berlin and
former State Senator James M. Croc-
kett, Pocomoke, T. Sangston Insley,
Cambridge, is also democratic candi-
date from Dorchester.
Somerset county has two Republic
can candidates, associate judge Rob-
ert F. Duer, Princess Anne, and
States Attorney John B. Robins, of
Crisfield.
Should n third Republican candidate
fail to appear, Williams said the name
of Duer and Robins would go in the
general election ballot. If those two
candidates rank first and second in
the poll count, then the highest Re-
publican and highest Democrat will
be declared elected, according to the
ruling from the attorney generals
office.
Similarly, if Upshur and Crockett
are nominated, then one who polls the
largest vote and the highest Republi-
can will be seated. The situation, of
course would be changed from the
Democratic viewpoint, should Insley
and one of the Worcester candidates
be nominated.
The ruling does not affect the chief
judges which has five aspirants; Ben
jamin A. johnson and l.. Claude Bail
ey, Salisbury; George H. Myers and
Gordon Tull, Princess Anne; and
James A. McAllister, Cambridge. The
latter is republican.
The constitution, it was explained
does not bar election of chief Judge
and an associate from the same coun-
ty.

ALONZA |. BLADES
IS OUT FOR SHERIFF

Mr.. Alonza l.. Blades of Pocomoke
City has this week announced his cam
didacy for the office of sheriff for
Worcester County. Mr.. Blades needs
no introduction to the public of this
county having been born near POGO
moke City and spent most of his life
in the county. For the past eight
years he has been Deputy Sheriff
under Wilmer S. Purnell. Before
being Deputy Sheriff he was special
officer for Pocomoke City for 2 years.
Mr.. Blades in his eight years as
Deputy has made nearly one thous-
and arrests and has carried several
hundred to the House of Correction.
Pocomoke City has not had a sheriff
since Mr.. Chas. E. Dale which was
twenty-four years ago, but this year
has two aspirants in the field.

MUSICAL PROGRAM
AT OCEAN RESORT

A musical program planned to give
as much pleasure as possible to all
who hear it, will be given next Sun
day August 9Th at Ocean City, Md.
The band of the l9Sth Coast Ar
tillery, Delaware National Guard, has
been obtained to give the concert
which will be played from the band
stand on the Boardwalk, starting at
500 P. NJ.
Lieut. J. Norris Robinson, Director,
is preparing a program that will give
full play to the talent available in
this band of 35 trained musicians. At
the same time the music will be plan
ned to suit all tastes, varying from
the popular tunes to the semi-classical
and classical.
In engaging this band the Mayor
and City Council expressed the hope
that there would be many local peo-
pie on the Boardwalk to enjoy the mu-
sic.
The Firemen's Band from Federals-
burg, Md, is scheduled to give band
concert in Ocean City on Sunday,
August 10th and it is said that it is

LOCAL LIONS
MEET SALISBURY
MlBALL GAME
Will Play On Old League Dia-
mOnd Next Thursday At
ternOOn At A O'Clock

On Thursday of next week, POGO
moke City will have an opportunity to
see great game of base ball. The
Lions of this city will scratch it out
with the Lions of Salisbury.
A tentative lineup of the local
Kings of the Forest" will be as fol-
lows: Dale Riggin, 1b; Griffin Gala
han, D.: Norman Allen. c.; Louis Rod
bell, Oh; Miles Landlord, |. f.; NAL
colin Matthews, b.: Nelson Bell,
$. s.; Hartley Stevens, Jr., I. f.; and
Milton Brimer, c. f. Chubby Scher
mascot.
There has been no information
vouchsafed as to the number of in
nings to be played; that depends upon
how soon the sun shuts down on the
day. The game will take place on
the old league ball grounds and will
be called at 4:30 p. m. Fred Hen
derson has been called upon to have his
ambulance on the grounds and with
his emergency kit specially furnished
for the occasion. DR.. (taletwister)
Hall has notified his brother physi-
clans to be ready for quick service,
and a special order has been laid for
crutches, splints, adhesive plaster and
all sorts of bandages.
After the game special treatment
will be given all survivors to con-
dition them for the next days reg
ular business. Just what that treat
ment will be, only good Lions know
about. The game promises to be worth
seeing. High Bush Hillman will do
the umpiring act and keep order on
the grounds. No one should miss this
great athletic event-it will surely be
the seasons best.

SHOE FACTORY
SHOWSINCREASE
in EFFICIENCY
Now Putting Out Between Three
Hundred And Four Hundred
Pairs Daily
HAS SIX PER CENT
INCREASE IN EMPLOYEES

The community at large and others
financially interested, can be assured
that developments at the lately estab-
lshcd shoe factory-the Clark Brown
Shoe Company-indicate most heal
thy condition and prospects of future
big things for the industry.
To show just how matters have adj
vanced, it is only necessary to know
that from daily output Of only 60
pairs of shoes per day in the begin
ming, there is now a production of be-
tween 300 and 400 pairs, with short
ly anticipated record of 500 pairs.
This has not been accomplished so
much by an increase in the number
of employees as by an increase of eff
ficiency in those who have been
taught the work. A large percentage
of the labor is local, and these, of
course, had to be trained. But even
the number of these has increased
from % to 35 workers, very nearly
60 per cent.
So far as orders are concerned, the
Democrat" representative was in
formed there is no scarcity in these.
OF course, like any other business,
there are dull periods when careful
management is necessary, and the
output measured to fit demands. The
Brown shoe now has over 25 custom
ers on the Shore alone, and enough
orders on hand at present to run them
until September Is, very encourag
ing condition
Mr.. Brown is optimistic for the fu-
ture and is positive in his assertion
that the industry is "bound to CO."
He is looking forward to a capacity
output of 720 pairs day, and even
should growth demand large make
there is abundant room in the build
ing, now occupied for the installment
of new machinery.
Here is an industry that clocks
good" 1t has, so far as it can, an
swered the demand for an enlarge
ment of the industrial life of POGO
make. Many local people have help
ed it along financially, but there is
room for further encouragement. Shoe
manufacture represents one of the SOL
id ideas in manufacture. Shoes are
necessity, not a luxury. The Brown
shoe gives satisfaction for the money
and the business seems like a going
concern. Pocomoke citizens should
encourage it materially and by good
words.

F ERA BUYS
NO. / MARYLAND
GROWN SPUDS
Quota Set For Maryland At One
Hundred And Thirty Bar
relS OF Grade No. l
GOVERNMENT CARS
MUST BE POOLED

The Federal Emergency Relief Adj
ministration acting through the Mary
land Emergency Relief Administration
has, for the past two weeks, been
purchasing L. S. No. | Maryland
grown potatoes at $1.50 per barrel
f. o. b. shipping points. The purpose
was three fold (D to use more pota-
toes for relief purposes; (2) to absorb
some of the surplus stock and CD to
raise the general price level.
The quota of these Government pur-
chases for Maryland was set at $50
cars of U. S. No. l grade. The man.
ner in which the 100 cars of potatoes
were to be purchased was left with
the Extension Service of the Univer-
sity of Maryland. A committee rep
resenting the Extension Service met
at Pocomoke with the various dealers
operating on the Shore and represen-
tative growers.
1t was decided that in order to
benefit the greatest number growers
possible, these government purchases
should be apportioned among the es-
tablished dealers doing business in
the territory. The ALLEGATIONS to
these dealers were made on the basis
of tonnage handled by them. The
dealers agreed to handle all govern
ment cars free of all charges or de-
auctions, and each agreed to run a
weekly pool, in which all moneys re-
ceived from government purchases
would be equally divided among all
growers shipping U. S. No. l potatoes
through them, depending upon the
actual amount of potatoes shipped by
each grower.
1t was expressly agreed that no
grower should receive $150 net for
any potatoes, but that all government
cars must be pooled. So then, each
and every grower shipping through
any of the established dealers, should
benefit proportionately by reason of
these government purchases, depend
ing upon how many U. S. No. l bar
rels or sacks of potatoes he has ship
ped through any of these dealers.

U. S. SENATOR
C0LDSBOROUCH
VISITS THIS CITY
Making Whirlwind Campaign OF
Shore For His Guberna-
t0rial Candidacy
MANY REPUBLICANS
REPORTED UNFAVORABLE

Pocomoke was favored on Tuesday
of this week by visit from U. S.
Senator Goldsborough, Republican,
from Maryland. His stay was very
short, indeed and he failed to meet
many, both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, who would have liked to shake
hands with him.
1t is not known just how enthu-
siastically he was met from poll
teal standpoint. This county seems
to have lined up definitely behind the
two candidates, Smith and Nice, and
it is generally believed the consen-
us of opinion is he has entered the
campaign little late. Worcester has
already seen some spirited discussions
among the G. 0. P.'s and they seem to
have lined themselves up with either
Smith or Nice camps.
Mr.. Goldsborough's moves in the
political field apparently reveal him
as feeling it is easier to defeat Gov
ernor Richie than to succeed himself
in the Upper House of Congress. But,
as some Of his own party has reported
out, he is as assailable on certain
points as some have wanted to con-
slider is Mr.. Richie. The Republicans
have considered succession in office"
point of attack against the present
Chief. Mr.. Goldsborough could not,
consistently, wage battle with such
ammunition. If Mr.. Richie is assail-
able because of banking association,
so is Mr.. Goldsborough: therefore,
many of the Senator's party leaders
have advised him to withdraw from
the race.
Mr.. Goldsborough is often spoken
of as the man who has never been de-
feated at the polls. He evidently,
like Governor Richie, prefers the
Governorship to the Senatorship, and
has a bunch his luck will not desert
him so quickly as a candidate for the
Chief Executive than it would if he
attempted to return to Washington.

JACKSON1S MOVE
TO WITHDRAWAL
NOT YET MADE
Mr.. Richie Is Reported AS Much
Improved In Health By
His Sea Voyage
ALONZA l.. BLADES
ANNOUNCES FOR OFFICE

AS was stated in last weeks is
sue of the Democrat, so can it be
said again that developments in the
gubernatorial candidacy in Maryland
are, to say the least, not startling.
Of the three candidates, Richie is
in Europe and will not be back, it
is understood, before the time passes
for a withdrawal. Jackson, according
to the Baltimore press, sees nothing
ahead of himself but withdrawal. Con-
lev has all the earmarks of sticker.
If reports can be relied upon, the
sea trip has done Mr.. Richie world
of good. 1t has been authoritatively
stated that all he needed was a rest;
he has obtained that land he will re-
turn invigorated and ready for the
campaign, if he is nominated. jackson
and Conley seem to pin their future
actions on whether these reports con-
corning Mr.. Richie are true. If they
are, then it is likely both will with
draw. If not then both, probably,
will remain in the fight, banking on
the withdrawal of Mr.. Richie, because
of ill health. Prospects point toward
Mr.. Ritchie's improved health; and,
incidentally to his nomination and
election
Locally, the Democrat" adds the
name of Alonza Blades to the list of
those aspiring to the Sheriff's office.
AS vet, the two seats for Worcester
in the Lower House of the General
Assembly of Maryland, do not seem
attractive enough to cause men to
scramble for them. Judges for the
Orphans Court are not very noisy in
their acclaim for the honor; no filing,
as vet for the State Central Commit
tee, and other minor offices awaiting
suitors.
For the judgeship in the First Judi
cial Circuit, Messrs. Insley, Bailey,
Johnson, Myers, Crockett, Upshur and
Tull present to the Democrats fine
array of legal talent from which to
select successors to Messrs. Pattison,
Bailey and Duer. Messrs. Bailey,
Johnson, Myers and Tull announce for
the Chief Judgeship and Messrs.
Crockett, Upshur and Insley for the
two associate judges. Add to these
the Republican candidates, Duer, Rob-
ms and McAllister, and there is much
food for thought.
The injection of Messrs. Blades and,
possibly, Cooper into the Sheriffalty
race, has added zest to the campaign,
and lively fight for the office is on
hand.
