are dependable, but they are natur-

sometimes, If frightened, will hurt
the one nearest. They will lift
those delicate front feet with light

sharp hooves. Watch them es-

One thing more-travel lightly
If you are going north. south, east
and west, with different plans and
different clothes for each locale,
don't have four trunks following
you around. Ship by express or
parcel post to each point, travel
with one light case, unpack when
you get settled and ship home the
clumsy, heavy things as you have
finished with them and set OF to
the next cline. Riding togs are
clumsy to pack-you won't need
them at the beach. Evening
dresses take little room and you
will love them on moonlit shore,
but you will never wear them at a
dude ranch-so fill up the space
with another gingham dress. And
have a good time.

ENDORSEMENT
OF KENT PAPER
FOR SENATOR ROE
ChestertOwn Transcript Has De-
clared For The Senator
From @. Anne's Co.

The following clipping is from "The
Transcript, of Chestertown, Md, and
reveals an endorsement by that paper
of the candidacy of State Senator
Dudley Roe for Congressman:
EARLY in the Congressional cam
paign we endorsed the candidacy of
State Senator Dudley G. Roe for the
Democratic nomination for Congress
man for the First District which in
cludes the nine Eastern Shore coun-
ties. We based our endorsement up
on Senator Roe's legislative and bust
ness experience and also upon the
fact that his home is within a few
miles of Kent County. He may well
be considered local candidate due to
his familiarity with this county and
it's people. His political career in
Queen Anne's County and in the State
has been one of service and included
very little compensation for his eff
forts. His personal and business life
in his community has been outstand-
ing. Efforts to involve him in a
bribery charge in Wicomico county
proved to have failed as a result of
the trial and conviction of DR.. Seq
all in that county last week. The evil
dence, as brought out in the trial, lead
to the belief that Mr.. Roe was slated
as a victim of political trick during
the special election for Congressman
two years ago. This evidence clearly
indicated the political trick but show
ed that he did not fall for it. Now
that the trial is over Senator Roe is
in the Congressional fight and his
best recommendation can be taken
from his personal, businss and politi-
cal record.

NEW CANDIDATE is
FORTY-FIVE YEARS OLD

The Eastern Shore of Maryland's
nine county congressional race became
a seven-sided contest this week with
the entrance of Lewis G. Merryman,

His announcement brings two can

Others in the race are Herbert H.

R. Higgins, Hurlock, Dorchester Coun

Worcester County; E. Moore Lees,
Chesapeake City, Cecil County and
Dudley G. Roe, Sudlersville, Queen
Anne's County.
AS an attorney of eighteen years
experience, Mr.. Merryman has resided
in Cecil, Talbot, Somerset, Worces-
ter and Wicomico Counties. In 1882,
two years after moving to Salisbury,
he was appointed United States Com
missioner with jurisdiction in eight Of
the nine counties. He still holds this
position and has served nearly two
full terms.
In his announcement he said:
During the past three months l
have talked with many of the Demo-
cratic voters and leaders in all sec
lions of the Eastern Shore about the
political situation. Much confusion
and uncertainty as to issues and can
didates exists in the minds of the
people due to too many untitled prom
Uses, strange political actions and a
failure to recognize many active par

leaders from all sections of the shore
believe that such an unhealthy condi-
ton can only be corrected by support

POKE WHALEN
MAKES VISIT TO
FORMER FRIENDS
Goes Down To Virginia Where
He Managed Parksley Of
Shore League 2 Years

"The News, of Onancock, Va, has
the following to say with reference
to visit of Poke Whalen to Virginia
Eastern Shore towns:
Several Eastern Shore towns were
delighted this week to have as their
visitor Poke Whalen, recently ap-
pointed manager of the Pocomoke
City baseball club. Poke was busy
getting around talking to friends and
telling them just what he expected to
accomplish this season. He was ac-
companied by Fred Herring, business
manager of the club.
Poke, with a chuckle, stated, "I'll
guarantee the fans a good baseball
club this year. mean a winning
baseball club. I've built up a good
reputation down here on the Shore,
with several championship teams and
now Pm too old to start losing"
"But seriously" he continued, 1--WE
have signed up some very good mater
ial and from it we will get a good
baseball team"
The two men stated that the play
ers for the Pocomoke team and the
Reading Interstate League team
would train together at Edenton, N.
C. The pitchers and catchers will re-
port March 81, and the rest of the
players April 1. So men have been
signed for the two teams.
It was pointed out that an effort
will be made to connect the team
more closely with it's Virginia support
ers. Special days for several of the
Virginia towns will be held. On these
days tickets will be distributed in that
particular town and for a small adj
mission price, less than the regular
admission the person bearing the tick
ct will be given admission. Other at
fractions will also be held on these
special occasions.
Polk will be remembered as a win
ming manager of The Parksley 'Spuds'
in the old Eastern Shore League. Polk
said, 81 want to see all my old friends
up at Pocomoke, because these Vir-
ginia fans can really give you encour-
agement." While down here Polk
and Mr.. Herring visited Onley, Acco-
mac, Chincoteague, Parksley and
Onancock.
Mr.. Whalen further stated that this
week he received letter from John
A. Metz, Eastville, suggesting sew
eral prospects from Northampton
county who might prove valuable to
the Pocomoke Club. The letter was
received too late to make arrange
ments to take the boys to North Caro-
lima, but Manager Whalen stated that
he intended looking them over as soon
as he returned to Pocomoke and if
any of them shows signs of becoming
good players he will give them
chance.
In connection with training events
