County Papers Prove Pulling
Power

Often there arises the question oI
how thorough is the leadership OF
the newspapers ON the Eastern
Shore. But at Salisbury recently the
completeness with which they are
read was emphatically demonstrated.
A story was given to the opening
of a new jewelFy store in Salisbury,
owned and operated by Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur Eypel of New York. The
Eypels first came down from New
York looking for a farm. but when
they got in Salisbury they were so
with the business possi-
bilities that Salisbury offered that
they decided to open a jewelry store.
This background was given in the
story. and was covered with
the statement that they were still
looking for that farm.
It wasn't but day after the story,
Mf. Eypel says, that offers Of farms
came to him from all over the Shore.
AS a matter of fact, he began 10

BLOOD TESTING OF
POULTRY COMPLETED

This seasons blood testing of
poultry breeding fiOcks by the State
Board of Agriculture for the elimi-
nation Of PullOrum Disease has now
been completed. According TO III.
r. Baker, pathologist of the poultry
disease control laboratory. 1852
birds were blood tested in 446 breed
ing fiocks. Three hundred and forty
four of these floeks were found free
of Pullorum disease by the tube ag-
glutination test.
All poultrymen cooperating with
this department in the Pullorum dis
ease eradication project are requir-
ed to have all of their breeding stock
blood tested for Pullorum disease.
A flock which upon test of all birds
on the premises over four months of
age passes a free test following one
or more positive tests is classified
as a "RullOrum tested flock. A flock
In which there are no reactOrs upon
the first test is classified as Pull
Drum passed" flock. However. if the
stock originated from a "PullOrum
clean or passed flock. then the flock
is entitled TO a "PullOrum clean"
dock certificate.
Hatcheries which hatch eggs pur-
chased only from "PullOrum clean"
aoeks are officially recognized as
'Pullorum Clean Hatcheries." The
fifteen hatcheries are plan

Dependable Fortune Teller

Theodore Roosevelt once said,
''The only dependable fortune teller
is the life insurance salesman. He
tells you what is going to happen
and IL does!"
That may not be pleasant to think
about, but it's certainly true. Death
comes to all, and old age TO many
Death brings with it the obligation
to leave behind economic security
for dependents. Old age brings an
equally vital responsibility econoin-
ic security for ones self.
Life insurance is designed to meet
both of those exigencies You don't
have to guess which one Is going TO
be yours. Life insurance Offers Sc
curity as nearly free from human
guesswork, as any plan the mind Of
man has yet devised.

In this ancient city whose history
reaches back beyond $50 B. c. are to
be found the ruins Of what was once
most imposing Greek theatre. All

wall Of reddish brick containing two
archways. Before this wall stands a
row of broken marble columns, sug-
gestive of the grandeur which once
the building possessed.
But standing here in the midst of
these noble ruins and looking
through the Gaping breach in the
crunbling wall, one beholds a scene
of marvellous beauty.
Beyond the ruins stretch away on
the left the green blue waters of the

The Ely miner., 1940-01-18
By ELIZABETH MacRAE BOYKIN

There's nothing that adds so much
to a bedroom as an easy chair or
two. Not only because of the purely
practical point of giving you good
place to sit IN your bedroom, thus
saving wear and tear of sitting on
the bed, but because of the comfort
they contribute to private hours.
Every lady with a house needs some
time to herself, and If her room is
furnished with a comfortable spot
for settling down with a book or
with her thoughts for few minutes
each day, she will find the room
twice as useful and pleasant.
Oft-times this comfortable chair
may simply be an overstuffed one
that has been denoted from the liv-
ing room to make way for a newer,
smarter chair IN the more public
parts of the house. But with fresh
cover it can add not only ease but
a gay spot of color to the bedroom
ensemble. OF course, If the budget
is flush, chaise Tongue is the ideal
choice for this purpose or else

Whispering Schoolboys,
Here's a Scientific Tip
ITO BE CONTINUED

DR.. ]. o. Perrine, who studies
such things, believes that the rea-
son why schoolboys aren't often
caught whispering is because they
don't use the part of the voice which
distinguishes one person from an
other.
.sWhisperers can't be recognized
ON the evidence of sound alone" he
said. ''If schoolboy can keep
straight face and not look guilty, he
is all set-but you shouldn't tell
them that"
To demonstrate, DR.. Perrine used
a loud-speaker with four ''throats,"
each of which responded to differ
ent frequency" - the quality of
sound which determines whether it
is thigh" or .1ow."
With the high frequency throats
turned off, speech or song from pho
nograph records had a musical quail
ity but was not ineligible.
Eliminating the very highest fire.
quencies alone made singer lisp.
With the low frequencies eliminated,
speech was understandable but
harsh and unpleasant.
Few persons realize" DR.. Per-
rine said, that such thing as mere
lack of high frequency overtones
could make person unpopular and
a failure"
