But this only goaded him to new outcry

pray that may get one."
When Valerie's funds had been low, she had
dragged erselffrom door to door, without find
ing work. Now that she was what she called
"in the big money" she went forth in bright
new dress and got the first job she asked for.

insisted on paying her an extra months pay

to show the proper gloom at the parting with
all that wealth in her handbag.
On the way home she bought few delica-
cies at the market for her father. They did not
cheer him because he was in one of his deeper
depths. He had heard nothing further from
Philip about the bankrupt trust company
which was going to reopen and repay him
some of his losses And the shackles of his
paralysis, it seemed to him, were tightening
their grip on him. From this last abyss
Valerie tried to lift him little by telling him
of the man in California who could perhaps
cure him as soon as he could get out there.

GIRL SUICIDE AFTER ATTACK

Miss Edna Ruth Moffett, aged Fl
years, operator of a tea room and
filling station between Massey and
Sassafras, in Kent county, commi.-
ted suicide on the afternoon of
Thanksgiving Day.
Assaulted and robbed at her place
of business the week previous, the
young woman apparently brooded
over the affair until she ended her
life with pistol shot below the heart
following Thanksgiving dinner.
AS the result of the assault, Thorn
as Satterfield, 50-year-old Dover
salesman, has been placed under ar
rest and will be given a hearing be-
fore Magistrate George E. Hicks, at
Galena, in the near future. Scatter
field, arrested on a warrant charging
assault, stealing and taking away"
was released on bail at Dover, has
waived extradition and will appear
for the hearing when it is set. The
amount mentioned In the warrant as
having been stolen is eight dollars.
The Moffett girl was found uncon-
scious lying outside her place Of
business. She had been beaten about
the head.
Satterfield, who was known to
have visited the tea room and filling
station on the afternoon the girl was
assaulted, was apprehended in Dover.
He denied having attacked her and
said that she had paid him the mon
ey he obtained for merchandise.
The girl was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. George Moffett. the former
Cecil county farmer residing near
Earleville. She had trained for nurs-
ing in Wilmington hospital prior
to opening the place in Kent county.

Elkton Marrying Par.
son De6es Council
Erects Large Signs In Yard---
The Town Officers Keep
Couples Away

The feud between the Edward
Minor, unfrocked minister and the
Elkton town council over the marry
ing parson" signs was renewed Sat-
urday as result of the appearance
Of two new large signs in the yards of
Minors two properties on East Main
| Street.
Despite the setback the council re-
ceived recently when the Cecil Coun-
ty Circuit Court upheld Mr.. Minor in
his suit to have the ordinance forbid
ding the display of marriage signs
declared unconstitutional, an officer
was detailed in front of both proper
ties Saturday, warning persons seek.
ing marriage licenses to drive on.
1t was understood the officers had
been detailed to picket duty by the
town council or mayor.
Saturday being one Of the Gretna
Green's biggest days, it was reported
that several couples, bent on mar
riage were waved away. The Rev.
j. w. Baker, who performs the mar
riage ceremonies for Mr.. Minor, pro-
tested it is said, but the officer re-
piled that he was carrying out orders.
Mr.. Minor was unfrocked as a re-
suit of information furnished by Elk
ton authorities to Baptist church Of
ticials in Baltimore. On the heels
of this action, the Town Council pas
sed it's ordinance against the mar
riage information" signs.
Minor, charging the ordinance was
unconstitutional because of unfair
discrimination, won his suit In the
court of Magistrate Walter G. Miller
and in the Circuit Court. Following
this ruling, the Town Council let the
matter rest awhile until the two large
signs, placed near the pavement in
the yards of the two Minor properties
made their appearances Friday.

A HAPPY CHRISTMAS FOR
EVERY CHILD

The Health Department, Welfare
Board, School Board and Children's
Aid are cooperating this year to see
that no under privileged child Of
Cecil County goes without happy
Christmas. All of the local units
such as the mems clubs, church or
CARNATIONS, and women's clubs are
being contacted and asked to coop
crate in this organized plan rather
than making an individual effort.
1t is felt that there is great deal
of duplication when individual agents
work without knowing of the others
plans. A central file of all needy
cases is being kept and It is sincere
ly hoped that no child will be slight
ed. There have been SO many in
stances in the past of one family re-
ceiving too much while others went
with nothing. An organized plan OF
this sort seems to be the only intel
ligent and fair way of dealing with
the problem.
