MILLIONS TO Be
DISTRIBUTED BY
CHRISTMAS CLUBS
Slight Decline, Compared To
Last Year Due Largely To
Consultations

Three Hundred and seventy million
dollars will be distributed to about
seven and half million members of
the Christmas Club by approximately
fifty-five hundred banking institutions
and organizations within the next two
weeks, according to an estimate CIV
en- out yesterday by Herbert F. Rawll,
founder and president Of CHRISTMAS
CLUB, a Corporation.
The average amount received by
each member amounts to $48.25. The
total distribution represents an in
crease of about 6%c over last year
while the increase average accumula-
ton for each member represents about
1870.
There was a slight decline, compar-
ed with last year, in participating
banks due to mergers and CONSOLE
dations effected in many communities
during the past twelve months.
AS a group of Mutual Savings
Banks show an increase both in the
number of Christmas Club depositors
and the total accumulation and sew
eral of the country's large CONNER
cial banks show an increase of more
than 208o over year ago.
In this distribution Of the Christ
mas Club this year, New York leads
the other states with about Sc mil
lions, while the estimate for Pennsyl-
vania is 80 millions. Maryland will
distribute $5,32O,OOO. The Pocomoke
banks, due to late opening will fall
far short of former years, but the
amount distributed will come as well
come saving during the first week in
December.

TWO FIRES OCCURRED
ON THURS. MORNING

The dwelling house of Lloyd Will
kinson, living at Beaver Dam, was
saved from total destruction on Thurs
day morning, by the quick response
of the Pocomoke Fire Department,
when the alarm sounded shortly af-
ter 9 o'clock. A. M.
The building is supposed to have
caught from a defective flue, and
flames had destroyed the entire roof
and part Of the sides, when the POGO
moke trucks arrived. The boys made
short work of the blaze.
Fire also destroyed all the outbuild-
ings on the farm Of Anderson Sharpley
early Thursday morning. This place
is located on the Stockton road. The
blaze started in an unknown manner
in the garage. The Pocomoke fire
Department was called out but the
fire had advanced to point where it
was uncomfortable.

FARMERS MEETING IS
WELL ATTENDED tues.

Between 60 and Is farmers and
others attended the Farmers meeting
held at the City Hall, under the aus
pices of the Mason Canning Company
of this city.
The meeting was addressed by Thos-
D. Holder and Kenneth Hankinson,
the former crop specialist, the latter,
of lime. Their talks were directed
along the line of pea culture, and the
kinds of soil demanding more or less
lime.
Inasmuch as the pea and tomato
crops are of vital Importance to local
growers, the talks of the specialists
were both highly interesting and in
structive.

SCOUT AREA
HAS ROLL CALL
OF OVER 1000
Average Of One Hundred And
Twenty-Six Boys At
Camp Rodney
SCOUTS SERVE WELL
IN THE COMMUNITY

AS an evidence of what the Will
mington Area Council Inc, Boy Scouts
of America, is doing, it may be in
teresting to those who have contrib
uted to the movement to know that
the present enrolment is over two
thousand Scouts, members of 10
Troops. Since the first OF, the year
587 new Scouts have joined the ranks.
One of the new Troops of which the
Area is especially proud is made up
entirely of Italian boys meeting at
the headquarters of the Italian-Amer-
lean Beneficial Associa. in Whining
ton. Scouting is surely spreading to
sections where the need for boys work
is particularly acute.
Scouts have served the community
well, both as individuals and in Coun-
cil-wide civic "Good Turns" Cloth
ing, food supplies and household fur
niture for the relief of the destitute
were collected this Spring through the
efforts of the local Boy Scouts. Scouts
have aided in the Better Housing pro-
gram and in many other community
projects. This is practical training in
citizenship.
The Council has continued its pro-
gram of leadership training, enrolling
100 men in locally directed courses de-
signed to show the volunteers how
more effectively to lead their boys in
Scouting.
That the Rodney Scout Camps is a
focal point for the training of boys
was again demonstrated this year. An
average of 1926 boys was in camp at
all times during the eight-week camp
ing season. The product of the Rod
ney Scout Camps-boys healthy in
mind and body, imbued with new con-
ceptions of citizenship and right liv-
ing is matter Of pride. Boys return
ing from camp exert an untold in
fluence for good in their home COM
munities.

Chicago Feb. 20.-lP,-Lowest prices

Absence Of vigorous buying power
rather than unusual pressure to sell
characterized wheat trading. Under
80 cents for May contracts, however,
absorption Of wheat proved suffici-
ent to steady the market and to bring
about fractional rallies at times. Va
rious observers said that to a mate
rial degree the uncertainty prevail
ing over proposed radical increase OF
commodity exchange legislation was
responsible for curtailment Of pur-
chasing.
Corn and oats duplicated the down.
ward course Of wheat values.
Provisions went lower with grains
despite hog market upturns.

New York, Feb. 20-tH1-New York
was frozen In Tuesday, held fast in

paralyzed the complicated transporta-
ton system serving 100000 persons
in the metropolitan area.
An army of $4,000 men, equipped
with shovels and picks. Clipped and
scraped to open streets.
Subway travellers stood knee deep
In rolling drifts Of snow below street
level, waiting for trains that didn't
come on time: not wheel turned fol
hours on the Long Island railroad
some trains were nearly two hours
late.
It was the worst predicament New
York City has found itself in for
years. And 1t was still showing.
Beginning Monday night with rain
that turned to snow. the storm blew
throughout the night. Tues d a y
morning the thermometer dropped to 9
degrees. freezing solid the layers OF
wet slush. It was the coolest Febru-
ary 20 In 81 years.
Long Island was virtually isolated
At Northport every school was closed
Twenty policemen we're marooned al

The subways, New York's greatest
transportation medium. moved spor-
adjcally during the morning rush
hours. Frozen switches. frozen doors
snow-piled elevated tracks, and cold
generally hampered operations.
Ice floes In the Hudson damned
ferry slips and prevented Jersey com
muters from reaching offices on time
Interstate traffic into and out ol
New York was demoralized.
Numerous accidents resulted from
the snow and ice and there were three
deaths in which the weather was q
