Millions OF Letters To jolly Elf At North Pole
Are Due To Arrive At Offices Throughout

The Post Office Department has
braced itself for the annual heavy
flow of letters addressed:
Santa Claus, North Pole"
The department should be snow
ed under by these letters in a week
or so.
Many Of those who write the let
ters, however, will not be wasting
their talents. More and more or
ganizatiOns and individuals across
the country in recent years have
taken the trouble to reply to the
letters. And some post OFFICES have
set up committees to answer the
letters and buy presents for the
ntediest children.
A couple Of years ago, thousands
Of the letters got to the North Pole.

Johnson, Of Smyrna; ;
Banquet Held.

William H. Naudain, present
Steward Of the Grange and a resi-

Master of the Delaware State
Grange Wednesday afternoon. The
Grange is meeting in Milford for
It's 6Oth annual convention.
He will succeed Harry c. John
son of Smyrna who has served as
Master for the past six years. The
election Wednesday afternoon came
IN the midst of a busy day for the
Changers. The agenda of planned
work is heavy and late Wednesday
night it seemed possible that the
convention, scheduled to end on
Thursday at 3 p. m, might continue
through Friday morning.
Wednesday,, the second day Of the
convention, opened with a continual
tion of reports by state officers and
session committees. These reports
occupied the Changers throughout
the morning session. After the noon
recess a memorial service was held
for subordinate members who died
during the past year. The service
was under the direction Of Howard
P. Moore, of Milford, the state
chaplain.
Following the memorial service
the members gathered for the cleo
tion of officers when Naudain was
chosen. The election began when
scheduled speakers had not arrived.
When the speakers reached the con-
vention the elections were halted
with only the top post being filed.
Speakers during the afternoon
included Col. William A. McWil-
liams, chief engineer Of the State
Highway Department, and George
M. WorrilOw, dean of the School of
Agriculture at the University of
Delaware.
The annual banquet was served
in Fellowship Hall of the Avenue
Methodist Church with Mrs. r. Ran

ing.

Sussex Turning
Out Holly Wreaths
In Spite OF Drought And "Hazel"
Work Continues

The Christmas holly wreath sea-
son is now in full swing in Sussex
County in spite of the damage
wrought by last summers long
drought and October's Hurricane
Hazel.
The hurricane divested the trees
Of their berries, which eliminated
the holly sprigs for this year, and
it caused leaves to lose their color.
But there was ample left in the
way of twigs and their leaves for
the cOunty's growers to meet their
share of the demand, according to
an appraisal Of the situation by
State Forester w. S. Taber and
members of his staff.
Profitable Industry
Holly is the official Delaware
state tree. In some years, the col
lecting, manufacturing, and mar
keting Of holly for sprays and
wreaths have been estimated to pro-
duce a total income of as much as
100000.
The holly sprig doomed this year
by the hurricane accounts for only
a comparatively small portion,
about $4,000, Of the business value
of the industry, which centers for
the greatest part in Sussex with
a little in Kent County.
