DIR. W. W. DAVIS
IS A VICTIM OF
PNEUMONIA
Was, For 80 Years Indefatigable
In Work To Secure Better
Sabbath Observance
LEAVES ONE DAUGHTER
WHO LIVES IN BALTIC.

DIR. w. w. Davis, a statewide
prominent Methodist divine is dead
He is best known by his connection
with the Lords Day Alliance, and
his activities Herewith have been of
long standing, energetic and efficient.
DIR. Davis was a graduate of st.
Johns College, class of 1884. He
pursued educational work for time,
and this included service at his Alma
Mater in the capacity of instructor
in Latin and Greek. He, however,
preferred to enter the ministry; and,
tho he did not take any regular
course in Theology, he had no diff
Guilty in meeting such requirements
as were necessary. He embarked
upon a very successful and able SER
vice in the church.
His abilities called for special du-
ties; therefore he was chosen for the
alliance" leadership. His efforts in
this were untiring. He fought his
fight persistently and well. He was
a familiar figure in the halls of
Maryland's General Assembly, where
he was always on the watch for pas
sage of laws regulating Sabbath OBJ
servance. He travelled the State in
the interest of the cause, and he plead
with rare earnestness and eloquence
from many pulpits. He will be miss
ed as an agent for the PRONUNCIATION
of better Sundays.
The editor of the Democrat" deep
ly deplores the death of DR.. Davis
The preacher and the editor were
classmates at college and, in the Sen
ior year, were room mates. The lives
of the two diverged; but, as they
both remained in their native state
there were many occasions in which
the two met face to face. Whenever
this occurred, both generally threw
away whatever dignity might sur
round either profession, and they
were, once again, the schoolboys, OF
old.
With the exception of one other
whose fortunes are unknown to the
writer, the editor has outlived all
those who received their diplomas or
June 1881, at old st. Johns. Thus
the passing years take their toll, and
the future holds out no change in the
plans of nature. All are mortal.
DR.. Davis leaves a daughter, Mrs
Walter r. Kerr as sole survivor of his
immediate family.

VIRGINIA CITY DECIDES
TO DISCARD METERS

The Luray, Va, Town Council has
voted unanimously to remove all
parking meters on Main street of that
town. Meters in few other streets
were voted to be removed by the
council. The council acted upon the
petition of most of the merchants
and other business men who said the
meters were hurting business. Work
of removing the meters will be COM
pleted by February 8, which ends a
six months trial.
Luray, Va, is town of about 1000
population, and, on the surface, it
would seem it should not have such
limited parking space as to make
meters necessary.

TOTALS


The P. H. S. boys will play prac-
tice game tonight, Friday, February
18th, with Temperanceville High
School, and the Junior Varsity will
play the Snow Hill C. C. C. Camp.
The high school has purchased new
suits for the local boys, so come out
Friday night and see how they look.
CHIEFS VERSUS GULLS
The recently organized Pocomoke
Chief Basketball Team defeated the
Ocean City Seagulls Tuesday night,
Feb. II, by the narrow margin OF
two points, the final score being
1929. The game was played on the
GulPs home court, and was closely
contested throughout. The victory
for the local boys may well be con-
sidered an upset, since it was their
first game of the season and played
against a team that has been in COM
petition all winter.
AL Hayman was high scorer for the
Chiefs with IL points and tied for TOP
honors with Hudson, Ocean City deaf
mute star. Coulbourne, of Pocomoke
and Conner of the Gulls both chalked
up 8 points, with Ed MCGEE of the
locals close behind with z points to
his credit.
The Gulls took the lead at the be-
ginning of the game, but at the end
of the first quarter the score was
tied 6 all. They again picked up the
lead in the second quarter, but the
end of the period found the score IL
to IA. Coming into the third quarter
Pocomoke secured the lead for the
first time during the game, and de-
spite the fine defensive play of Tas-
ker, Cutler, Byrd, and Hancock, the
Gulls tied the game up again at the
end of this quarter, % to %. Sub
stitute Jim Willing started things off
for the Chiefs in the final quarter
with field goal, and from then on
the lead jumped from one team to
the other, with the outcome uncer-
tain until the final whistle.
The Chiefs is a team of all local
boys, sponsored entirely by the play
ers themselves. At the present time,
all their games are played out OF
town, because of no available local
court. It is hoped that the use OF
the Armory may be secured for local
games as soon as the National Guard
leave for camp. There are number
of local fans who enjoy basketball
and are anxious to see the team play
in Pocomoke.
The lineup of the local team was
as follows:

Mrs. Myrtle Carey, Mrs. Beulah Hur-
ley, New Church; Mrs. Helen King,
Grasonville, Md; Mrs. Josey Brooks,
Gray Court, s. c., Mrs. Lottie Mar
tin, Onancock; Mr.. F. R. Tull, Mona.
Mr.. Tull's home was Mona, Va. but
since retiring he has spent his time
visiting his children. He was well
known and had many friends in east
ern Maryland and Virginia.

after all those years.
SO you see. when she heard
that Cord vas murdered. Miss
Mile Was frantic. She thought
CHRIS Gordon had eusrreled with
him. She thought he killed him.
probably in self-dsfenss Still Ne
didn't know. and 50 We decided TO
say nothing. She hoped she would
be able TO talk 10 Chris Gordon
herself
But Gordon didn't Kill Cord.
Msudie. dear Denny interrupted.
"Stush Neretu did. He confessed
an hour ago. Just heard IT over
Al the police post II Was a num-
bers angle, Just as I said
Maudie nodded YEARLY. But
We didn't know that then. Nkp.
Miss Mile couldn't see GorGon
right away. In fact It Was after
the inquest before she had
chance. and they decided 10 meet
down on the pier where no one
would see them She shuddered
at the remembrance
I don't know what happened
exactly, of course. but I guess she
accused him of killing Cord She
said she had never meant him TO
do anything like that merely
have Cord check out Of the inn
and 30 away. Gordon said h.
wasn't guilty, and she reminded
him that he had lied to her before
back when they were young and
in love. He said she hadn't for
gotten a word OF that meeting
more than 25 years ago. and she
was bitter. He said she threat
ened TO tell the police because
murder was murder; he'd killed
her love once, and now he had
killed man.
Gordon said he lost his head
and / can understand that. He
thought she was Just hysterical.
but he didn't want her running
to the police because he had
gamoled with Cord and was in for
quite a lot of money for a little
town innkeeper. He supposed that
would be enough cause for the
police to hold him.
Her voice was tired. but sh.
kept on talking and looking out
across the lake.
We'll. he hit her. She fell and
started to scream. He said il was
then he used the stone. He must
nave gone little crazy because
while he was telling me his poor
eyes were tortured. guess he
had always cared for her, despite
the fact that she had totally ie-
nored him all these years and had
grown into a domineerins. auto
cratic old woman.
But he killed her and realized
II too late. He showed her in the
boat and pushed it out in N.
lake. And that was how I found
it - drifting"
