Cheltenham, Md, as the Evangelist,
is proving a great blessing to many
men and women. Rev. Mr.. Peterson
has been preaching such sermons, that
all have declared they have been in
spired. Some of his topics for the
week have been "There is wild man
loose in Pocomoke City;" "Have you
received the Holy Ghost?"; "The man
who married the wrong woman;" and
his latest one, "The closed door,"
From reports, the public address
system he has installed in his car,
has been a blessing to many, as the
old hymns have been sung on the city
streets.
Rev. Spencer, pastor of the Taber-
nacle, extends a hearty invitation to
one and all to come to the few remain

weekend services. Sunday School at

And speaking of elections, one lit
tie incident came to my knowledge.
which should put bad taste in the
mouths of those who imagine that a
dollar or two will insure a ballot
marked as the money was intended
it should be.
A member of the colored female
persuasion visited one of our empor-
iums where shoes are on sale and re-
quested to be fitted with a pair to
her tender and tiny feet. While the
process was in motion, she seemed to
be in talkative mood and volunteer
ed the information that she had been
down to vote, had been paid $500, had
voted as she darned pleased, and was
now turning the proceeds into pair
of feet protectors-and she seemed to
be tickled to death.
Some of these vote buyers had bet
ter deal out the "filthy lucre" through
the "blind tiger" mediums; or else the
voters will be remembering names and
faces. This might bump up against
the Corrupt Practices Act, and the
cost of infraction exceed many times
the cost of the ballot.
How-some-ever, everything seems
to go nowadays. People are asked to
vote against a gambling law; and,
yet, no effort is made to enforce such
laws already in existence. Slot mach
ines increased the length of their
slots when they smile at the decisions
of a Court of Appeals. Speakeasies
wink their eyes at passers by, behind

WOMEN'S CLUB
HELD MEETING
ON WEDNESDAY
Considered One Of The Most
Outstanding Meetings Of
The Present Year

The Womans Club of Pocomoke
held perhaps its most outstanding
meeting of the year, so far as club
members are concerned, on Wednes-
day of this week, when it had as
guests the State president of the Fed
Grafton, Mrs. Harry L. Harcum, an
Eastern Shore woman, of Salisbury,
who talked on the home; Mrs. Edgar
F. Bradley, of Hurlock, president of
the Eastern Shore District, who gave
an interesting talk on work of the
clubwoman and Mrs. Wilmer Fels
Davis of fredericksburg, vice-president
of the district, who gave two delight
full readings.
Mrs. Clinton Jones gave a report
on the district meeting held in Cen
treville on November 2, reporting that
it was decided at the district meet
ing to ask the Board of Regents of
the University of Maryland to name
a now unnamed dormitory at the Uni
Eersity "The Sara A. Whitehurst Build
ing" in honor of the National First
Vice-President of the Federation of
Woman's Clubs, Mrs. John L. White
hurst, of Baltimore. A like action
was taken by the Pocomoke Club.
An informal tea was held at the
close of the meeting, and record at
tendance was had.
The out-of-town visitors were lunch
con guests of Mrs. Raymond C. Dry
den, program chairman for the day
A number of beautiful oil paintings
by Pocomoke women were on display
for the occasion, it being National
Art Week. Mrs. E. J. Schoolfield is
art chairman for Worcester County.

Who Made The Sacrifice

Twenty years ago, the joyful news
of the Armistice rang around the
world. To most, the time has pass

that this county proudly watched re-
turning heroes marching home. The
cheers and tears of joy are still vivid.
But, what long, lonesome years they
have been to those mourning Gold
Star Mothers. What tortuous years
have they been to those shell-shock-

1t is done to foster bigotry and pre-

defense, it is political propaganda. 1t
is an appeal to the baser instincts of
humanity. 1t is creating imaginary
fear; and the whole thing is I'm
American, Un-Christian and untruth-

Evidently, such ruses as this did
not materialize this time to the extent
of influencing an election. The more

showed the country that Maryland is

child stands up straight,
breathes deeply through the

sort of rotary motion. This de-
velops the muscles from the cor

You have seen children with
wires on their front teeth, fore
ing them back into place so the.
lips will cover them; well, this
exercise greatly reduces the dan
ger of anything like that ever
having to be done. In fact, the

that exercise or not, I won't
go so far as to say. Certainly
I know it has helped them,
though.

ST SPEAK by my card"
l. is an excellent idea to
keep in mind to guide you
in your. choice of Christmas
cards. Your Christmas cards
should be a perfect express
sion Of you, Of your taste and
discrimination. When your
friends receive your cards,
you want their comments to
be uttered with an applaud
ing, complimentary tone, not
with an unpleasant tone of
disapproval.
In general, Christmas cards
are of two kinds, formal and
informal. One of the first
things to decide before you
choose your Christmas cards is
whether you wish them to be
of one type or the other. Which
ever type you choose, there are
several questions of etiquette
to be kept in mind.
Formal Christmas cards, like
formal invitations and an
nouncements, are usually en-
graved from a plate, printed to
simulate engraving or printed
:, In 9 formal type. And formality
Is, Of course, expressed in the
third person. AS on formal in
vitations and announcements,
the name should come first in
the wording Of the card, and
the title-MrS., Miss, or Mr.
should be used before the name.
A formal Christmas card
should read:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Meredith
Wish You a Merry Christmas
and E-Gppy Ne1O Year
The name at the end of the
C0AO DCOOA11CO q oASAAhOAASB anu
a signature is informal; that is,
if it is not prefixed with a title,
Mrs, Mr.. and Miss. This is
why, to be correct, a card should
not read:
Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year
Mr.. and Mrs. John Meredith
Sometimes we see Christmas
cards written by hand in the
third person. These, too, are
correct, if written in the first
form suggested Mr.. and Mrs.

Stains Haze
All Disappeared

After the dentists left we went
over every stain again and
again, until today there isn't a
mark on their teeth to show
where those stains were.
Children should be taught to
assume the responsibility of
brushing their own teeth as
young as possible. Since they
were a year and half old the
CUNTS have done their own
brushing.
Another thing parents should
watch in children is thumb
sucking. If this is continued, it
will have a bad effect on the
soft jaws, and palate. In fact
there is danger that it may
throw the whole jaw out of
shape. Enlarged adenoidS are
another menace, too, for they
cause mouth breathing and
again the mouth gets out Of
shape.

It should be real friendship,
too, for your modern dentist
doesn't frighten children like
some of the old timers used
to frighten us when we were
children. Today the dentist may
not touch your child the first
day you take him to the dental
office. He may spend that day
getting acquainted, gaining your
child's confidence.
University GiUeS
Good Advice
In all our work with the
Quints we have had the utmost
cooperation and advice from
the University of Toronto. I
have told you in my previous
column that we had decided to
have stains on their teeth re-
moved, so we appealed again to
the university for advice.
The result was that Dean
Mason of the dental college and
DR.. w. G. Thompson came up
from Toronto, bringing with
them a machine for polishing
teeth. That was the CUNTS
first introduction to dentists,
and it has been a very happy
relation for it has resulted in
the children having beautiful,
healthy teeth. Just think, each
child with 20 teeth, a hundred
in all, and not one single cavity!
Of course it took a little di-
plomacy on the part of the two
dentists before the children
would sit beside the machine
and allow the instrument to be
placed in their mouths. Finally
Marie, who has always been the
most venturesome of the sisters,
was the first to submit. When
the others saw that she came to
no harm, they clamored to be
next.

Penny Wise:

II wGnt tho dozen four
ounce bars OF toilet SOAP"
DENNY buys toilet soap by the
4 bulk and stores it, thus using
hard soap which will not dis
solve as rapidly as a fresher,
softer one. In this way she in
creaseS the length of service
without decreasing its cleansing
properties. She chooses a we'll
known, uncolored and family
perfumed soap, plainly designed
and wrapped. She is more in
tereSted in its purity and clean
sing properties than she is in
its art or luxury appeal. She
has studied soaps enough to
choose one which has a mini
mum amount of alkali. She
buys unperfumed and uncolored
bars because she realizes that
perfume and color are often
synthetic.
