in every state in the union, in Canada
and in Mexico. Most of the pupils
from the Pocomoke B. school were
present and very few of the students
from the high school did not attend.
The program consisted chiefly of
music and was begun by saxaphone
trio. This was followed by Russion
song and dance. There was also an
American Indian song and dance in
real golden eagle headdress.
One of the most interesting and
amusing parts of the program was a
ventriloquist act, featuring Chester
Gump, a dummy. There were other
acts in which were used harmonious,
a violin, guitars, saw, ukelele, a
balloon and in all fifteen musical in
struments.
Everybody enjoyed the program
immensely and we all hope the Alex
anders will be engaged again to play

GOLD CHRISTMAS"
While the Christmas holidays for
the general public have ended there
are a number of families in lower
Delaware who celebrated the holiday
on Thursday, January 9th which they
know as Old Christmas and which
they hold as sacred as December 25th.
Those holding to this belief base
their support on the grounds that
when Gregory changed the Caesar cal
endar it set back, by thirteen days,
the Yuletide season.
Consequently, hundreds of people
started in on Wednesday night of last
week to observe Christmas. These are
not of any special cult or creed. Sup
ernatural things they hold take place
on the night of January S and that
just before the break of day on the
sixth, daffodils, hops and elder will
shoot forth sprouts-even if the
ground is covered with snow-and re-
main visable until the sun rises.
Sections of North Carolina just as
on the Delmarva Peninsula celebrate
"Old Christmas" annually.
On this peninsula many families,
as a matter of fact, hold divergent
views, members respect each others
beliefs; and Christmas decorations, as
a consequence were not taken down
until after Thursday of last week.
Thus many folks have two Yuletides
December 25 and January 6.

than alarming.
We should effect a greater
conference of those nations to-
gether with Canada and our
selves. The parliament can be
patterned somewhat after the
League of Nations, but devoting
its activities to the promotion
of prosperity and security for
America. One of its privileges
would be the adoption of a
united American flag, and the
selection of an all-American
anthem. Also a united Ameri-
can holiday.
Impeued by high idealism, but
fortified by superior air bombs,
we can build an impregnable
structure of justice and good
will among the peoples of the
New World, whose foundation
can never disintegrate. We can
show Hitler that democracy is
the cornerstone Of civilization,
firmer than everlasting hills.
