We certainly appreciated the
comments on last weeks visit to
the Eastern Shore via Montgom-
ery Sidelights-one person wrote
"Felt the ocean breezes watt when

But most often we have been asked
"Did you see Miss Mason's homer
Now, "Miss Mason" of course, is
Miss Florence Mason, home fur
nishings specialist from Maryland
University, whose slip covers and
advice on planning has done much
to add color to the rural homes OF
Montgomery.
Miss Mason was not at home,
we did see the outside of her home
at Snow Hill, and very lovely it
is. But we were entertained at
lunch at the home of her brother,
Ralph Mason, whose wife is
cousin of the Riggs. The Mason
family own thousands of acres of
land in the vicinity of Newark =
Berlin Pocomoke, also two can
neries, feed business, hatcheries
and in addition Ralph Mason is
president of a bank.
When we drove up to the Mason
home in Newark (Md.) a few
miles from Berlin-we were greet
ed by a Chesapeake Bay dog,
"Bingo," who, in true retriever
fashion was carrying glove
probably belonging to one Of the
neighbors. "Bingo" is exactly the
color of our "Miss Susannah," who
with Brother john" is enlivening
the Haines family with puppy
antics. 1t was on the luncheon
table at the Masons' that we saw
the only raw fruit on the entire
trip-when we commented upon it
we were told that the pears were
from California - we spoke last
week of the dire effect of frost and
drought on the Shore-almost no
fruit this year.

The tomatoes themselves are
touched from field to can, only by
the women who stand around a
counter along which the buckets
of scalded tomatoes pass they
skin, take off the blossom end and
cut out hard places. 1t is wonder
full to watch the rhythm of some
of these women they sway from
side to side in a way that prevents
fatigue-some of the best Of them
this year earn in excess of $500
per day.
The Bahama negroes, Of whom
we have read, are assigned to farms
and may not be used in the can

25 of them on 1,450 acre farm

had 65 acres in tomatoes. The

their hats-some of the women
sported huge ear rings. They

The sensational new technlcolor
Western THE Desperadoes" begins
It's breath-taki engagement at
Warmers State theater tomorrow
with Randolph Scott, Glenn Ford,
Claire Trevor, Evelyn Reyes and
Edgar Buchanan heading the star
studded cast.
Based upon an adventure-packed
story by Max Brand, THE Despera-
does" has been greeted with I'M
atinted critical acclaim. There can
be no doubt that the new firm Is one
of the mightiest outdoor action pic
lures Of all time, a thrilling, mag
nificent epic Of the old west.
Full-fashioned, robust adventure
is to be found in the new film. Its
principals are hunted men and
painted women, killers and gamblers
and heroes and towards, desperate
and reckless. The bad" men in
clude a wanted gunman who stops
off in the pioneer town Of Red VAL
ley to do O little Safebreaking and
stays to introduce law and order,
and a misunderstanding killer, a
good man to have around in a brawl.
Fastest climbing star in Hollywood
today is Glenn Ford who adds to
his laurelS as the soft-Spoken Chey-
enne, who couldn't stop once he
started killing. Randolph Scott APP
pears as the sheriff. and Edgar Blu
chanan as Uncle Willie, a shootin
fool who never could find his gun.
Claire Trevor Is the Countess and
lovely Evelyn Reyes appears as
Uncle Willie's daughter. Lesser roles
are equally well-played by Porter
Hail. as the banker: Quinn Williams
as a dynamite-loving bad man and
Bernard Medell. as a villain OF
deepest dye.
Adventures all, these desperate
men and dangerous women gallop
out of the west in a trailing cloud
of dust. gunfire and glory to make
the new film a matchlesS, breath
taking story of gun-roaring action.
Alive with incident and humor, the
film contrives to capture all the
tempest tossed spirit OF a newly
created frontier.
