Monday the first Mikado
peaches made their appearance on
roadside market-that of Ed
Bredehoft at his Twin Naples
farm in Danbury.
These were the first yellow
peaches to make an appearance
;. Ed has been picking May.
flowers since July 9, he stated,
adding that yellow transparent
apples have been ripe for some
time.
Next on the peach list to ma
ture will be the Oriels So
far peaches harvested have been
of good size and excellent quail
ity.
Absent-minded vacationiStS are
running trt,e to form at Lake
side, but more so than in past
years, according to Tom Graham,
director of admissions Every
day one or more neighbors are
called to do some chore for
people who go off forgetting to
let the cat out, turn off electric
stoves, leave the coffee pot over
slow fire and countless other
small things which could be bad
if neglected One neighbor
obligingly turned off the cleo
tricity to put out burning oven,
but in so doing also cut of the
deep freeze "If people ac-
tually remembered everything,
cur days would not be normal
out here" Graham commented.
We readily agreed with the
complaint of a motorist about the
breakneck speeds which are
achieved on State routes 2, 163
and even 53 But when he add
ed, ''the only time Pm scared, is
when l get on the route 2 speed
way west of the city" At that
remark we really picked up our
ears, because it was made by AL
vim Meter, of Sixth and Fulton
Streets, who was an ace hot-rod
speedway racer for some six years
making records on tracks all over
he country Alvin established
the top speed racing record Of
l40 miles per hour in a 100-mile
endurance test at Ft. Miami sew

was pointed out, the possibilities of
an atomic-bomb attack on this
country by Russia is not too diff
cult to visualize. Legislation to ap-
propriate funds for Delaware's Civ

Federal funds is now in the above
mentioned committee. A bill per-
mitting the issuance of bonds for
an additional $3,9OO,0OO was pre-
sented also to complete the Della

additional funds for the purchase
of the ferries at New Castle. With
out the ferry acquisition cost, this
brings the cost of the bridge to

of all public school teachers, super
intendents, secretaries, clerks, etc.
in Delaware. Also custodian-fire-
men, firemen and chief custodians
would benefit by an experience pay
scale up to six years which is a
part of this bill. This amount of
money, if appropriated, would COW
er the 10 per cent increase only for
a two year period beginning July /.
The 10 per cent increase for teach
ers as proposed is of current sal
ary. In other words, the low salar-
led teachers would not benefit
nearly as much as those in higher
brackets even though the increased
living costs are the same for all. A
bill to bring about a five day week
for state police was presented and
referred to committee. Rep. Bat
tersby (R. Newark) presented a
bill to require all Delaware con-
tractors to obtain a license to car
ry out any contract under $4,000.
A seven-man Board of Examiners

by the Governor to pass on the lie

closing time of midnight to 2 am.
