Is honorary president of the Boy

attending this jamboree by the
press Of business, but he told the
scouts he would like to be with
them.
He mentioned the fact that rep

countries are attending this jaIn-
boree and added:
Each Of you win make new
friends, acquire new skills, appre-
ciate new values.
And, in all likelihood, you win
gain . new sense of the vaStness
and complexities Of this nation and
Of the world. But / am confident
that, in meeting and talking with
your fellow scouts, you viii gain i
renewed awareness Of the need for
cooperating working together--in

Bonds Of common purpose and
common ideals can unite people.
even when they come from the

This Is an important lesson, and

For visitors the scene Of the

impressive as the show itself.
Scout officials said visitors who
thrOnged into the arena brought the
total attendance to approximately
70, 900.
Auto traffic was banned from
inside camp roads an hour and i
half before the show. The armies
Of scouts marching to the center Of
the ranch from all directions were
led by color guards and bands. As
they marched into the arena and
over the side Of i hill the
sun, like . red bali, was sinking In

W7HEN Princess Elizabeth
w visited Washington in
1851, she received a souvenir.
The story of that souvenir
forgeS another. link in a
shadowy chain that stretches
somewhere between fact and
fiction, back to the days be-
fore England had Kings or
Queens. It came 10 months
to the day before her coro-
nation as Queen Elizabeth II.
The memento was a small
silver case, no larger than a
pack of cigarettes. It held
three blossoms taken from the
Glastonbury thorn tree that
grows on the grounds of
Washington Cathedral.

Legend tells of the journey
Of Joseph of Arimathea to
Britain after the death of
Jesus. The wealthy tin mer-
chant, who gave his private
burial vault so Jesus might
have a tomb, is said to have
travelled to the British Isles
with a small band of followers
to start Christianity there.
The group proceeded inland
until they came to a place
near Glastonbury, and there
they paused to rest. It was
Christmas Day, and Joseph
plunged his walking staff into
the ground, claiming the site
for his first little church.
The staff Immediately took
root, budded and bloSsomed,
so the story goes. According

NINETY-NINE YEARS OLD

Today The Smyrna Times
celebrates its ninety-ninth an
niversary. Never in its nine
ty-nine year history has The
Smyrna Times failed to print
an issue and holds the proud
distinction of being the oldest
consecutively published news
paper in the state of Della
ware. Fittingly we enter our
Tooth year of upholding one
of our most cherished free
doms, the freedom of the
press, in this community, as
our Nation is about to cele-
brate Its birthday, July 4th.
The signers of the Declara-
tion of Independence gave us
the doctrine of mans inalien-
able right to ''Life, Liberty,
and the Pursuit of Happiness"
1T years ago. We are proud
that for the past SO years the
Times has shared in it's small
way the upholding of these
principles. AS our Nation
faces the grave years ahead,
The Smyrna Times pledges it
self to exert even greater eff
fort in upholding the princi-
pies of democracy and work
ing for the promotion of peace
and freedom.

BONUS PAY
Continued from Page One

subsidized cafeteria operation, lib
eral discounts on employee pur-
chases of Company products, rec
reation and athletic programs, the
medical and health program, the
employee counselling and assist
ance program, and many, many
other benefits which individual en-
ployees cannot directly measure in
cash. An interesting feature of
the Playtex policy of keeping its
employees informed is the report
on the state of the business which
is broadcast over the public ad-
dress system at regular intervals.
Playtex employees therefore are
fully aware of the fact that with
out profits there can be no profit
sharing. They also understand
that profits depend upon the great
est possible volume of sales of high
quality products produced at the
lowest possible cost. Constant at
tention to this basic rule has made
it possible for International Latex
to distribute profit sharing bonus
es without interruption since the
plan was first adopted.
In closing, MIR. Spaniel reminded
each man and woman that their
individual share of the profits de-
pended upon each ones contribu-
tion towards making the profits
possible. Maximum bonuses went
to those employees who had the
best attendance and the highest
amount of quality production. He
added that no supervisor or man
ager received a higher bonus than
the maximum earned by produc-
tion worker, and that "As long as
this company continues to make
profits we will have profit sharing
bonus distributions. we will con-
tinue to make profits so long as we
maintain our well-run sales organ
ization, intensive national adver-
tising and men and women who
continue to do a full days work
for full days pay, The response
of the Playtex Park employees to
this announcement was enthusias-
tic, to put it mildly, and the mer-
chants in the entire peninsula Of
Delaware have already felt the i'm.
pact of this cash distribution.

Black-throated Green Warblers
are about 1-3 inches long with. a
Widespread up to 8 inches. The
distinctive field characteristics in
clude, for the male, a black throat.
yellow face and back, and crown
of olive green. In the smaller fe-
male, the black throat is less con-
spicuous than in the male. In the
autumn the young and the females
lack the black on the throat and
the upper breast and underparts
become yellowish. Since the birds
are most commonly present when
the forest canopy is well developed.
they are heard more frequently
than they are seen. A sneezed
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS." may be
accepted as suggestive descrip-
tion of the song of this bird.
The deeply-cupped nests of twigs
bound with spider webs and usual
ly yined with pine needles, some
feathers or hair, may be found com.
monty on horizontal tree branches
from Is to 20 feet above the
ground. In the nest are placed
about A eggs, each A by 1a-inch
in diameter, white or creamy and
spotted with gray, purple or
brown. The nesting month is US
ually June and there is but single
brood each year. Incubation is by
the female and lasts for IL days.
The young birds develop in the
nest in from 8 to 10 days from
helpless birds into young that can
fly on their own. During the nest
ing period the female bears the
brunt of providing defense.
by mid-August the southern mi
grafton has begun. This starts in
a leisurely sort of way but speeds
UP as the later broods of birds are
ready to move by the end of the
month.
The Black-throated Green Warb-
lers are almost wholly beneficial
as destroyers of insect enemies of
the tree tops. Throughout their
lives they feed largely on caterpil-
lars, bugs and beetles that eat the
leaves of woody plants. They seem
to be particularly destructive of
such insects as the cankerworms
and leaf-rollers.
The National Wildlife Fedora
Ition welcomes the opportunity of
helping you and others have a
better understanding of this OBJ
viously useful bird.
