SALISBURY ANNOUNCES
UNUSUAL LIGHTING

In today's issue of the Democrat"
Salisbury announces it's city has under
taken an unusual thing this year in
it's lighting. In the past the Christ
mas decorations were strung over
most of the business sections, and
at the more prominent spots of the
city. But this year the lighting
theme is being worked around the
courthouse, and entrances to the city.
This will create an inviting effect
and at the same time give Salisbury
a point toward which visitors may go
to see the Christmas lighting.
Christmas lights will be turned on
in a formal ceremony on the evening
of Friday, December 9Th, at around z
o'clock. There will be music with
the local boys band and the bugle
and drum corps. A very unusual
ceremony has been planned for turn
ing on the lights.

writer's unit of the District Work
Projects Administration, asked the
association to co-sponsor publica-
ton of Washington almanac,

ton.
Mr.. Payne explained that the Dis
trict Commissioners already had

into the necessary transactions with
the publishers. The almanac, he
said, should be on sale by Christ

Proctor entertained the group with
anecdotes of a trip abroad several
years ago.
Mr.. Proctor resigned as the associ-
ation'S delegate to the Federation of
Citizens Association. Mr.. Proctor,
acting president, explained that
circumstances prevented his de-
voting sufficient time to affairs Of
the Federation and pointed out that
Mr.. Suter, with his background
of civic work, was ideally suited to
the job. The group promptly in
stalled Mr.. Suter as delegate.
The association, which met in the
Old Union Engine House, voted to
send flowers to Mrs. Proctor, who
