Delaware Oyster
Season Nov Open

Of shells about the graves and bur-
led some distance in the plot of land
surrounding the graves.
With Congress last week making
an appropriation of s160.000 and the
Delaware Legislature like amount
at the session this year, for the op-
ening of the Indian River Inlet. con-
Meeting the Atlantic Ocean with the
Indian River Bay, this body of water
should, with the briny water coming
into it from the ocean, once more
abound in the bivalves as It did be-
tween fifty and one hundred years
ago. Within recent years some beds
have been planted, but they never
amounted to much because of the
stagnated condition of the river and
bay by the closing of the inlet by
sand bars. Work of opening the In
dian River Inlet, It is understood,
will likely be started within the next
two months. This is good news to
the fishermen of that section. who
until recent years made many thou
sands of dollars from the sale of
oysters. fish and crabs.
Most of the oysters placed on sale
at three inches in length will have
attained the age, 1t is said, from two
to three years.
The period of growth depends
largely. II Is stated, on the temper
ature of the water where they are
bedded Midstream is said to be het-
ter than too close to the shore line.

1t is related that one day he dis.
covered near the bay shore what ap.
peared to be stone. In reaching fol-
It, the oyster, which had its shell
open and was feeding, closed on one
of his fingers. He is supposed to have
smashed the oyster with his toma-
hawk and after doing so placed his
fingers in his mouth and got taste
of the juice and discovered, much to
his surprise, the delicious favor.
Still another story is told relative
to the oyster which dates back to the
sixteenth century and has to do with
a minister living in England named
Butler, who is said to have suffered
from dyspepsia and gout. which he
laid to eating oysters during May,
June. July and August. four months
of the year which do not contain the
letter "R." The people are said to
have needed the admonition given
about eating them during the sum-
mer months.
That oysters were popular among
the Nanticoke Indians is a well es-
tablished fact. because excavation of
mounds in the Indian River and In
dian River Bay sections, show an
abundance of both oyster and clam
shells. II is related that the Nanti-
cokes used to place shells in the
graves. In the Nanticoke burial
ground. three miles from Oak Or

they are going to eliminate this type

And the side tryin' to eliminate the

they just keep on shootin' up in the

much attention to them, any more.
And it is something like when you
watch roman candles and rockets go

then go out, and after while you get

break which would be the Stikine
Valley, she began repeating the
name to herself: "Stikine"
'Stee-keen."
For the first time she thought
it a beautiful name.
She fell to wondering why her
mother had so hated the river and
the village of Tarnigan. Her hos
tility came out, for the most part,
in her charming, yet deadly way
of ridiculing the country. A pic
ture from Denny'S childhood came
back-Sylvia on the chaiSe lounge
in her luxurious dressing room,
undergoing one of the innumer-
able beauty treatments that had
kept her looking nearly as young
as her daughter, twenty years her
Junior. "Tarnigan! Baby-heart, no
woman with any regard for her
complexion could possibly exist
there. Your father had the only
bathtub in the country"
But after the divorce in an un-
usual moment of seriousness, she
had once whispered to the small
Denny, The Stikine- it's q witch
river. Dangerous. Cruel. WhiS-
pering over dead mems bones. 1t
puts a spell on you, Denny 1t
