ka after her marriage, there to
settle down and attempt the task
Of creating home. Her life did
not lack drama, she managed well,
loved her husband, and took part
In all the neighborly activities of
the rapidly growing town. But her
own life came to depend more and
more upon her children.
The author carries the story up
to the present, using the three
world fair celebrations in 1876,
1893 and 1888. This story epitomizes
significant chapter In Americas
history.
"A Vagabond In Sovietland''-
Harry A. Franck-Mr. Franck here
gives you a chatty, informal, but
extremely Informative story of
what he saw and heard during
thirty busy days in the Soviet I'm
ion. Harry Franck has been ming
ling with the people everywhere
on this globe so long that he
brings to any new land he visits a
Photographic eye, a wealth of
comparison and a tolerant philoso-
ply of life.
This tale of his thirty days
among the Bolsheviki from Lenin-
grad to Armenia and back will tell
the rocking chair traveller what he
will see on a trip to the Soviet
Union as an ordinary tourist.
Ladies Whose Bright Eyes
Ford MADDOX Ford-This is highly
entertaining fantasy set inside a
realistic frame.
An English publisher, returning
from New York soberly and sue
cessfully Is suddenly banged into
the fourteenth century through a
train accident. He had been made
custodian of a medieval cross
Just before he passed out of tenn
porary consciousness. Now he
finds himself journeying through
Wiltshire, slave from Palestine
in a linen shift, seeking to restore
the holy cross to the Egerton fam
lily, of Tamworth, in 1926.
I'm this predicament Mr.. Sor-
rel, the publisher, is a delightful
figure, with his pre-war colonizing
good sense and good humor. He
can do no more than phophesy
what rather hazily comes into his
mind-the airplanes, the gunpow-
der and other modern inventions.
It is very charming recreation
Of pasttimes, and a special delight
to the reader.

NOTICED
AT OLD BOAT WHARF

Considerable improvement is ap-
parent in the old sheds that, in days
of yore, constituted the wharf build
ings when the excellent line of steam
ers, which piled the Pocomoke and
Chesapeake, deposited freight.
These, some time ago, were enclosed
for various purposes; mainly as stor-
age places for fertilizers, but recent
ly they have been raised, underpinning
placed, and other improvements made.
The general effect would still further
be improved, were that part next to
the bridge be similarly treated.
Below the old steamboat wharf, the
old houses and sheds have acquired
new ownership and put into first class
shape. All this work improves the
approach to the city as one travels
south over the river bridge.
