The Ninety-niners heard the
valedictory of Louis j. Borinstein,
president Of the Indianapolis
Chamber of Commerce.
The gist of the valedictory fol-
lows:
"All the world is a stage, where
every man must play part :
We have played a part, the part
of school children for the last IL
years. The first eight have
grown dim in the immediate light
of the last four. Now arises
a feeling of genuine sadness be-
cause these ties must be abruptly
broken by separation. -Four years
ago we trembled when we entered
Manual. We we're all equal then,
and all of us we're weak.
Tonight we again are all equal
But we know how weak
we really are, when we think of
the power of the rugged practical
world, when we picture the hosts
of struggling people who finally
meet defeat. :"

song for his class.

PLANS APPROVED FOR

Approval of plans to purchase about
$500 acres in land in Wicomico and
Worcester counties for forestry and
wild life conservation was announced
last week by the federal Rural Reset

w. w. Alexander, acting admins
traitor, said $4,000 has been allocat-
ed to finance acquisition if unproduc-
tive farm land in these two lower
counties of the Eastern Shore.
After it's purchase, the Eastern
Shore project will be turned over to
the State of Maryland for admins
tration by the State Department of
Forestry.
Alexander did not say where the
tracts to be acquired are located. Re-
representatives. of the Rural Resettle-
ment Administration have been here
for sometime looking up titles to land
and procuring options to purchase.
The work was done quietly, however,

RADCLIFFE CALLS FOR
DEMOCRATIC LOYALTY

A clarion call for loyalty to the
Democratic party was sounded Friday
night by United States Senator Geo.
L. Radcliffe in an address before the
Wicomico Women's Club in the WI
comico Hotel.
"The Democratic party has brought
hope, faith, and courage back to this
country" declared the senator in main
tanning that the party is for an &C
counting in next years election. I'VE
have progressed long way since the
dark days of March, 1885," he contin-
ued, "and we can prove, in the coming
election, the record of our steward
ship"
The Eastern Shore Sen. Radcliffe
pointed out, was fortunate in not re-
ceiving such a heavy blow from the
depression as many other sections. It's
diversity of industry prevented the
failure Of some industries from affect
ing the entire population, such as oc-
Cured in many one-industry sections

The Senator showed little patience
with the "harpings" Of the critics,
according to the speaker, not only
failed to agree on what should be
criticised, but failed to make their crit
cism constructive in submitting other
proposals.
1.-THE country has been flooded with
accusations that the constitution is
in jeopardy" he stated. "That is sheer
nonsense. Legislation has been pass
ed which has been declared uncon-
stitutional, but there is nothing un-
usual in that. ="
Charges of extravaganza have been
made. The national government has
spent enormous sums-but the expen-
diture has been necessary to carry the
people through the stress and storm
of this depression. Possibly small
amount of this money has been wasted,
but a little waste is unavoidable in
any case, by any party in office.
"You may have gloomy moment"
Senator Radcliffe continued, "but

The meeting was presided over by
Mrs. Branche Phillips, president of
the club, who reminded those attend
ing that the recent invalidation of the

everyone who had moved into Mary

THE USE AND ABUSE OF WORK
By Herbert Howell

Were men created to play? The
writer thinks so because Adam was
placed in an environment where he
could get living without work. Eve
was given him not as a helpmate,
but as playmate. There were no
meals to cook, no laundry to wash,
no floors to scrub, no Sunday papers
to pick up in paradise, or cigarettes
to smoke. So what else had Eve to
do but play with Adam?
But Adam and Eve didn't appre-
ciate good thing when they had
it. There was the forbidden tree.
The apples on that particular tree
probably no sweeter than those on
the surrounding trees. Also the
tree which he procured the apples
was harder to climb, and perhaps
sported thorns on it's bark. But
since it was forbidden, nothing
would do for Eve but scale it; and
although the good book doesn't say
so, the writer will bet his last nickel
against ginger snap, that Adam
boosted her up.
Then, according to this, Adam and
Eve made themselves work when
they should have played as intended.
Because of this they were thrown
out of paradise and the curse of
work has pestered men ever since.
