POCOMOKE CITY, MD, FRIDAY, MAR. g. 1899 S1.5O lmna.
WAR ADMIRAL COMES
TO WORCESTER COUNTY

Worcester County will soon have
within its boundaries the sensational
race-horse, War Admiral; he will be
shipped on Monday to the Riddle
farm, near Berlin, where he will be
kept in light training for future races.
War Admiral comes from Florida,
where he expected to enter the $4,000
Widener Challenge Cup race, to be
run at Hialeah Park tomorrow, Sat-
urday. He was, however, withdrawn
because of throat infection causing
a fevered condition, and preventing
his being conditioned in time for the
race.
War Admiral is the distinguished
son of Man O'War, and, up to the
time of his meeting Sea Biscuit, had
been tramping rough shod over all
competition. Ailments seem to be
following both horses since, as Sea
Biscuit has not been able to race since
the victory over the Admiral. The
Riddle farm, no doubt, will be the
scene of visitation by great many
eager to see the famous turf idol.

DR.. FONTAINE
PUBLISHES A
new BULLETIN
Seeks To Improve Writing And
Speaking Of English In
Maryland's Schools
AUTHOR is NATIVE SON
OF POCOMOKE CITY

Among the Maryland School Bulle-
tins, there is one recently prepared by
DIR. E. Clarke Fontaine and issued by
the State Department of Education,
Baltimore, the title being "The Teach
ing of Oral and Written Expression
in Maryland High Schools"
The Foreword, written by DR.. A. s.
Cook, State Superintendent of Schools,
states: "The main purpose of this bull
letin is to present to the high school
English teachers of the counties Of
Maryland a statement Of tentative
goals of achievement in the teaching
of English composition and grammar
of the high school grades, the state
ment of detectives being based on re-
ports obtained from all the twenty
three counties on current practices
in the teaching of the subject"
The author is of the opinion "that
high percentage of the composition
work in school should be oral, for the
simple reason that the average person
talks approximately a hundred times as
mean that practice in written compost
much as he writes. This does not
ton should be sighted =. but all
written work should be related to the
oral work."
In 116 pages, the Bulletin contains
a wealth of information as to the
best ways of achieving the various
detectives; reviews the teaching of
English in the high schools, specifies
just what should be accomplished as
the high school years come and go;
furnishes an extensive photography
for teaching; and advises how to use
the library.
DR.. Fontaine has made valuable
contribution to public education in
relation to this special subject. There
is no other course in the curriculum
that contains so slight an appeal to the
student. He, apparently, is satisfied
with his vehicle for thought, no mat
ter how shabby and unattractive in
sound or appearance. Many times the
English boy and girl boast proudly of
their advancement in foreign tongues,
be they ancient or modern; they vaunt
their acquaintanceship with Caesar,
a Xenophon, a Voltaire, or Goethe,

CONVOCATION SYSTEM
RENEWED in DIOCESE

A step forward for the Episcopal
Church on the Eastern Shore was
seen in a resolution adopted recently
by the clergy, calling for the resusci-
tation of the convocation system in
the Diocese of Easton. This planl
which divides the Diocese into North
ern, Middle and Southern convoca-
tions, each headed by one priest with
the title of dean, is designed to pro-
mote unity of understanding and pro-
gram among the parishes in each dis
trict.
With the approval of the Bishop
elect, the Rev. William McClelland,
the clergy of the Southern Convoca-
ton will meet March 2 for an organi-
cation meeting at All Hallow's Rec
tory, Snow Hill. Those expected to
attend are the Rev. DR.. Percy T.
Fem, Berlin; the Rev. Albert Fl.
Frost, rector of st. Peters Church,
Salisbury; the Rev. Herbert Jukes,
Quantico; the Rev. Frank Lambert,
rector of Christ Church, Cambridge;
the Rev. J. Randolph Field, rector of
st. Andrews, Princess Anne, and the
Rev. DR.. r. B. Mathews, rector of
Snow Hill.

Eighteen-year old Delmar boy who
was sentenced for five years in the
Maryland House of Correction for
forcing w. H. J. White, of Salisbury,
at the point Of a gun, to drive from
Salisbury to Pocomoke.
Here, Mr.. White, seeing an officer
standing on a street corner, managed
to open his car door, throw himself
on the concrete bed of the street, and
give the alarm to Officer Birmingham.
Birmingham gave chase, but did not
have to go further than block, when
the car, left to Foskey's guidance,
crashed into anonther one, hating his
onward movement. He was arrested,
lodged in the city lookup. Afterward
he was taken to Snow Hill where he
was tried, found guilty, and sentenced
as above stated.

NARROW ESCAPE
FROM INJURIES
IN CAR CRASH
Mr.. And Mrs. r. Stanley Elmore
Experiences Head-On Col
lisiOn, Tuesday Last
OCCUPANTS RECEIVE
BRUISES AND CUTS

Mr.. and Mrs. r. Stanley Gilmore, Of
this city, had a narrow escape from
a serious auto accident on Tuesday
evening last, near the Spinning Wheel
filling station, on the road between
Salisbury and Delmar.
The Elmores were coming south
from Williamson, N. Y, to Pocomoke,
when a car, driven by Mr.. Ralph Bak-
er, of Delmar, struck pool of water
on the road bed. This caused a sheet
of water and spray to fly into the
air in front of the machine and also
caused Mr.. Baker to lose control OF
the car. The real wheel left the road
bed and, in order to right the auto Mr..
Baker gave a quick turn to the left.
It shot across the road directly in
front of the Elmore car and the crash
came.
Mr.. Bakers Packard coupe was de-
molished and Mr.. Elmore's Buick was
damaged to the extent of $3.50. Luck
ily no one was seriously hurt. Mrs.
Elmore was thrown forward, her head
striking the windshield glass. Being
non-shatterable, the glass did not
break into bits, but the impact was
hard enough to make many cracks in
it. Mrs. Elmor's head was protected
somewhat by her hat, but she sus-
tanned bad bruise and, subsequently
much discomfort. Mr.. Elmore's ell
bows were much bruised as also was
his side as he was driven against the
wheel by the impact.
Mr.. and Mrs. Elmore's plans, ar
ranged for renewal Of their trip to
Florida on Wednesday, but they will
be detained here much longer by the
accident.
Mr.. Baker assumed all responsible
ity for the accident and expressed him
self as ready to pay any and all DAM
ages.
