BANK DEPOSITS NOW
OVER MILLION DOLLARS

By advertisement in another col
umn of today's issue of the Demo
craft, the public may notice a con-
densed statement of the Pocomoke
City National Bank, which is indica-
tive of the local money situation and
of the growing patronage of that in
stitution.
For the first time since 1880, the
deposits show an accumulation of over
a million dollars-to be exact, $1,003,-
429.73, at the close of business, July
81, 1886, and on Monday last, the de-
posits for that day amounted to
$4,000. This is a most gratifying
report to all concerned in the pros
perity of the banks, and an indication
of the estimate in which this POGO
moke institution is held.
The general financial prosperity of
the farmers, this year, is responsible
for this, and other banks are report
ing large advances in money earn
ings. The Citizens Bank, of POGO
moke, has, no doubt, felt the impetus
of agricultural success, and its show
ing is reported to be highly crafty
ing.

Candidates are requested to mark
extension when they turn in subscrip-
lions, otherwise the campaign depart
nent will not be responsible for the
additional votes which the extension
subscriptions carry.
It may be truly said that the "real
campaign" for subscriptions is just
getting started, judging by the increas
ed enthusiasm being demonstrated by
the campaign members during the
past few days. One and all seem to
have taken fresh stock in their pros
poets and are fully determined now
to finish higher in the list than ever
before. Then, too, the public is lend
ing it's support in a commendable way
and urging the workers on to greater
achievement. Then wise members will
"bear down" as never before on SUBJ
scriptions this week.
Candidates are cautioned against
making the serious mistake of think

pie right here in Worcester county
every one of whom is potential SUBJ
scriber, who have not been approach
ed for subscription. Don't assume
that the other fellow has beaten you
to it. Leave no stone unturned and
you will be surprised at the increas-
ing number of folks you will find who
have not been seen by other workers.
Members are urged to make an active
survey of the field so that every pos
sible source of votes will be looked
after. To let failure overtake one at
this stage of the game would be to
relinquish the opportunity to win one
of the biggest awards. What are a
few days of diligent effort, compared
to the days, weeks and months of
pleasure and satisfaction one of these
awards will bring?
AS the matter now stands the race
is remarkably even among many That
is why the last three weeks are so
as they will enable the
members to win the highest honors
if they will but strive hard enough. 1t
isn't a matter of chance Or luck.

IN MEMORIAM

In sad but loving remembrance Of
my husband, Lloyd Watson, who de-
parted this life one year ago today
August 9, 1885.
Today recalls sad memories,
Of loved one gone to rest;
Those who think of him today,
Are those who loved him best.
We often think of days gone by,
When we were all together,
But, oh, how changed it all is now,
Our loved one has gone forever.

Testimonial Planned
 For Rev. M. J. Lynch
Popular Pastor Says Farewell to ParishiOners-
 gregatiOn Sponsors Banquet Wednesday Night

Manifestation of love, devotion, and loyalty were plainly exhibited yesterday at the Church of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, when tears dimmed the eyes of members of the Congregational at the parting ser- mon of Rev. Michael J. Lynch, pas- tor whose recent promotion and transfer to the pastorate of St. MaryIs church of Windsor Locks was announced last week by Most Rev. Maurice F. McAuIliffe, bishop of the Hartford diocese. Although the departing sermon was delivered at all masses, perhaps the most dramatic happening of the day came shortly after II o'clock at last mass when Father Lynch himself showed plainly his emotion.
 He said that he well remembered the Brooklyn Town Plot sections be- fore the church originated when he came to this city to assume his first pastorate. He spoke of the isola- ton of Town Plot and of the great improvement that has come about with the erection of the humble Italian church which is now secon6 to none. This great development he asserted was all due to the loyalty of the older parishioners and to the young people, his children of a doz- en years ago who have since dis tinguished themselves as excellent Catholic laymen.
 Future Assured
 He said that the children of the parish today have been receiving exactly the same religious training as their parents received and in ad- dition the parish can now afford recreational facilities for them "These children are as good as you were" he said and therefore the future of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel church is assured, and in proper time, it will rank among the great est parishes"
 Father Lynch said that he felt that he was going to be busy and happy at Windsor Locks for as he understood, it was an excellent and well developed parish, having pa rochial school and other facilities. He asked the members of his for mer Italian parish of the Brooklyn, Town Plot sections to remember him.
 In speaking of his successor, Rev,

(BY A FIREMAN

It was a lean larder that the firemen of the the Deputy Chief Cavanaugh shift ran into at 691 North Riverside street at 3:45 o. clock this morning when 9 two story frame structure was found blazing on the second floor, where Wilfred Provancher, with his wife and nine children had expected to spend the night. It was their home. and they had just right to be there, as did also Mike Su- danish, a bachelor, who occupied an apartment in the rear of the first floor, just back of an empty store.
 The house is old, but years ago, it was a pleasant little home for the McGrath family that owned it. In those days North Riverside street had some very attractive houses of occupancy.
 The wonder is that nothing seri- ous resulted from this mornings fire, in view of the fact that the only escape was by way of an out side stairway on the west side of the building. An old fashioned kerosene oil lamp provided the light for the family, similar to the custom in vogue here and elsewhere many years ago. There was no bathroom in the place In a small closet near the southeast bedroom, were various odd articles of an inflamable nature. The family custom to enter here was to strike match and poke around. It may have been done some time during to night. But we do not know positively. Anyway, the fire started here while the entire mem- bership was asleep. The smoke awakened the children, and they turn aroused the mother and father. MT. PrOvancher ran through the fire and grabbed up his four year old child Gloria. The others, including Henry, g months old, the baby of the family, had been huddled together by Mrs. PrOvancher and removed in safety.
 The cry of fire as raised by MT. Provancher was heard by Patrolman Timothy Hurley and he turned in an alarm from Box B. The engineer of passing train also gave the fire signal, 9 long blast on his train whistle.
 The fire was bulging through the windows and side door when the department arrived. Deputy
