SALISBURY DOLLAR DAYS
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY

Thursday and Friday, August Sth
and 9Th. will be the two official Dol
lar Days in Salisbury this year.
Originally Salisbury merchants
had considered two days during the
early part of the week, but inasmuch
as Salisbury stores close Wednes-
day afternoons, it was finally con-
sidered preferable to have two sea-
sonal Dollar Days scheduled for the
latter part Of the week.
AS in all past Dollar Days, all
Salisbury merchants have made ex-
tensive preparations for this value
giving, money-saving event. Many
merchants have managed to make
unusually advantageous buys during
the last days Of the manufacturers
season, and these savings are being
passed on to the customers. All
merchants are taking drastic slashes
in the regular seasonable merchan-
disc they have.
Salisbury has pointed up for these
two Dollar Days next Thursday and
Friday, and present business condi-
tiOns indicate an unusually success
full selling period.

EAR FRIENDS,

roneous statement,
for when the mall
ing lists Of this pa
per are consulted one must
believe that this poor and hum
bic effort goes to many peo-
pies, giving them some news Of
this grand community. And
isn't it Just that? Every one
knows everybody and is inter-
ested in all that concerns him.
The best example to illustrate
that this week has been the con-
slant inquiry about our neigh
bors who were involved in the
serious automobile accident last
Thursday. No one is satisfied
with the last report, there is
always interest to hear more,
and all have wished for favor
able ones. Happily the condi-
tions Of Mr.. and Mrs. C. D.
Holzmueller, Mrs. Carrie Croas-
dale and Mrs. William v. Grier
continue to improve. Naturally
the Improvement is not as rapid
as their friends would wish,
but as long as there is improve
ment everyone is pleased. Small
communities suit me.
The young set have been doing
the most things socially this
week, although there were two
grown-up gatherings. Chrome
logically, we begin with last
Thursday when Mrs. Frank r.
Grier was the guest Of honor at
dinner at Rehoboth Indian
Beach Club when Mr.. and Mrs.
William Smith entertained in
celebration OF her birthday. On
Friday Miss Mary Pearce called
q group Of friends together at
her cottage for the afternoon
and dinner at Pleasant Inn at
Rehoboth. The occasion was to
honor her guest, Miss Patty Nc
Cormick of Latrobe, Pa. That
evening Miss Jane Barnard was
hostess to a group of young
folks when she surprised Miss
Dorothy DickersOh, of Bridge
vile, with beach party. Miss
Dickerson is the fianeee Of Rem
sen Barnard, Jr. They have set
September q as the date for
their wedding which will take
place in Bridgeville. On Mon
day evening Elizabeth Anne
Houston invited a number OF
her friends for a strawride to
Beach where they en-
joyed a hot-dog roast on the
Shore. Elizabeth Anne was
twelve and it was a novel way
for her to celebrate. for there
are very few strawrides these
days. That was popular a gem
Grafton ago. but it seems good to
'evive some of the old ways Of
pending a pleasant evening.
Tuesday seems to be the next
lay for social affairs for on that
lay Miss Katherine May Hols-
on gave a luncheon at her cot
age at Slaughter Beach. HaV-
ng Mildred Hammond, Anne
Iugg, Barbara Marshall and
Anne Townsend in to meet heR
louse guest, Gladys Jackson, Of

Thursday of last week Mrs.

Clarence JOnnard, her mother,
Mrs. Anna Brock, Jean Grier
and myself to be her guests at
the performance of "The Pirates
Of Penzance" which was the
opera given by The Brandywin-
ers three evenings last week at
LOngwoOd Gardens. It was a
gorgeous evening. for It was a
bit cooler and with the stars for
a ceiling and the natural ampi-
theatrical setting, the hosts who
came, went on exclaiming dur
ing the evening of the per-
fectness Of the whole thing. The
fountains were played after the
performance, to the delight Of
all. Certainly there are none
more beautiful. with their wide
areas and their beautiful colOrs.
l am always wondering if we
do not take the beauties Of
LOngwood too matter-of-factly.
It would be too bad for those
who live at a distance to appre-
ciate them more than we do.
1t will be good to get back to
The late seventies and the early
sighties of the thermometer once
more. The shore has made
some difference, because there is
Usually a sea breeze at some
lime during the day, but there
ire hours on end when the
Ihore has been almost as hot as
inland. From day to day the
'apers have said mo relief in
light" but hope springs eternal
nd we live from day to day
linking this will be the one
hat will keep us from sizzling
nth the beat. But we are well
nd should do less muttering,
Or the sick are more tolerant
han we. Before this gets in
rint we may be lighting our
replaces.
Always.
