JOE BOLEY TO
MANAGE POCOMOKE
, .,,. BASE BALL CLUB
Announcement Meets With APP
prOval Of Local
Fans

The announcement in last weeks is
sue of the Democrat" as per tele-
gram from Mr.. Arthur Ehlers, owner
of the Pocomoke City base ball team,
that Joe Boley had been signed as
manager for the coming season, was
great relief to the local fans, who
had experienced a real disappointment
when Max Bishop was relieved of his
managerial contract to assume SINH
lar duties at the U. S. Naval Academy.
Mr.. Ehlers did not lose much time in
casting about for a successor to Bish-
op, and he considers himself fortunate
in being able to land Boley.
This player came from the same
school as did Max; school taught
by the inimitable Connie Mack
"Mack" being short for MacGillicuddy.
Boley covered lot Of ground around
short and second for the old Athletics,
and. in the opinion of many, he was
the brains of the infield. He had the
faculty of sizing up batters, and made
many a play look easy because he
knew where lots of batters generally
sent the ball. He was quick to start
double play, and pulled many be-
cause of his wonderful fielding ability,
turning apparent safeties into outs.
If experience counts for anything,
Boley ought to bloom out into most
successful handler of young players.
Since he quit playing regularly, he
has been in Pennsylvania giving the
benefit of his knowledge to various
league teams and doing it well. Mr..
Ehlers was doubtful of his success in
engaging Boley, and has said he con-
siders him the equal of Bishop in
every department of the great Ma
tional pastime.
Just when the new manager will ap-
pear on the scene, has not yet been
but it is we'll assured that
he will arrive in time to whip his
boys into good shape; and, it is also
assured, that when he does come, he
will be on the spot every day in the
week and all the day.

GIVEN PLEASANT SURPRISE

Wednesday evening, February 9
1888 the member and friends of Berea
M. P. Church of New Church, Va.
gave their pastor, Rev. J. R. McKeawn
a surprise birthday party. They sur
prised him by getting him away from
home while the people gathered, then
sent him a telephone message to come
home, that he had company. He was
indeed surprised to find the parson-
age crowded with people, seventy or
more, old and young were there.
There was a large birthday cake
with a number of candles on it. Along
with the party was a pounding of
things for the pantry.
After a pleasant evening, ice cream
and cake were served, also each one
receiving a piece of the birthday cake.
AS the people departed for their
homes, they wished the parson many
happy returns of the day.
The pastor and his family surely
appreciate the kindness and thought
ruiness Of all.

300 GROWERS
ATTENDED THE
CO. MEETINGS
Information On Acreage And
Prices Presented By A. E.
Mercker
1888 SOIL CONSERVA-
TON PROGRAM MADE

About three hundred potato growers
attended meetings at Pocomoke and
Snow Hill where 1888 outlook infor-
nation on intended acreage and prices
were presented by Mr.. A. E. Mercker
of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture. Following Mr.. Mercker's re-
marks a presentation of the 1888 Soil
Conservation program was made.
Outlook information as presented
shows that in 1887 growers increased
potato acreage per cent and planted
total of about 3,177,000 acres. This
acreage, with an average yield of 1881
bushels per acre, the second largest
yield on record, resulted in the pro-
duction of 391,159,000 bushels, ex-
ceeded during the past ten years only
by the crops produced in 1928 and
1884. This production is 59,241 900
bushels more than was produced in
1886 and 19,O44,O0O bushels more than
the 1882 five-year average crop.
The consumption Of potatoes is rela-
lively inelastic and surplusses greatly
depress prices so that growers have re-
ceived low prices since June 1887.
In Aroostook County, Maine, grow
ers are now selling potatoes grading
U. S. No. 1 for about 80 cents bar
rel or 80 cent a bushel, which is 81
per cent of the Maine parity price.
In Idaho growers are receiving 24c
a bushel for No. potatoes an 10c a
barrel for No. rs.
In Colorado and North Dakota grow

JOINT MEETING
OF ROTARIAN,
LION CLUBS
Partake OF Turkey Dinner Ser.
we'd At Local High
School
CLUBS ADDRESSED BY
REV. JOHN DITTO

A sort of joint meeting of Lions
and Rotarians was held on Tuesday
evening last lin the local high school
building, on the occasion of the
schools annual turkey dinner.
In order to patronize the dinner,
the Rotary Club moved it's Monday
dinner date to Tuesday, which is the
regular meeting night of the Lions.
This furnished the opportunity for the
two service organizations to join in
their weekly dinner. Professor Kra-
bill had arranged separate room for
the members to eat and to transact
whatever business on hand.
After the feast, which was well
cooked and served, by the domestic
science department of the school, the
two clubs were addressed by Rev. Mr..
Ditto, of the First Baptist Church,
this city. The speaker emphasized the
several forces which were prominently
influential in molding public opin-
ion-the press, the church, the school,
and others. Some of these, he init
mated, were not using their power in
the right direction; and, in so far as
our own community is concerned,
urged that more activity be evidenced
in opposing those things seeming
harmful to moral advancement. He
specialized the various gambling de-
vices in Pocomoke, and pleaded for a
stand against them, and mentioned the
matter of Sunday ball-playing soon to
start up here.
His remarks started some discuss
ion and the general trend of this
showed an agreement with the minis
ter's contentious, and some action,
individually, will probably be taken
to bring about what may be consider
ed by some as better conditions. A
large attendance of both Lions and
Rotarians materialized, and a most
enjoyable evening was spent.
A visitor from Hebron, Nd, Mr..
Gordy Beach, who announced that a
new Lions Club was about to be
awarded a charter, and extended an
invitation to all the Pocomoke Lions
to go over and help the cubs do their
roaring on that evening. There will
probably be large representation of
Pocomokers on hand
Raymond Dryden announced that the
Rotary Club would hold it's annual
Farmers Night on Monday, February
%. On these occasions, every men,
Der is. supposed to invite one or more
farmers to the weekly dinner, and the
speaker of the evening choose topic
in keeping with the agricultural in
tereStS of the guests.
