FARMERS NIGHT
AT LIONS CLUB
Lee Towson Talked on "Are
Farmers Really in
Trouble"
FIFTY PERSONS ATTEND

The Smyrna Lions Club heard
a talk on "Are Farmers Really
in Trouble ?" at the annual Farm
ers' Night program attended by
fifty persons Monday at The Way
side Inn, given by Lee Towson,
past president of the Vegetable
Growers of America for 1854, and
associated with Seabrook Farms,
New Jersey. He was presented
by James Casper, program chair
man. He said that Delaware has
reason to be proud of the people
they have sent to the U. S. Con-
gress, and paid tribute to Sena-
tor John j. Williams for his eff
forts on behalf of the farmers.
He told of the terrific cost to
store the surplus, amounting to
one million dollars a day, after
telling of the start of support
when farmers were encouraged to
increase production during the
war, and the continuance of the
program due to political expedi-
ency. The speaker also defined
in detail the results of parity,
asking the question often voiced
that We have too many farmers.
Touching on soil banks, which will
be voluntary, he gave the opinion
that it will probably be a good
move. prosperity is based on
net income, with price only fac
tor" he stated. In his opinion the
Delaware Peninsula has the great
est agricultural potential of any
place in the country, providing
that farmers realize what the
score is and watch competition.
Don't undersell your freedom and
have faith in God" he said in
conclusion. The response was
made by Leonard Hitch. Price
Webb, past president of the Mil
ford Lions Club, headed a delega-
ton from that club which includ-
ed Fred Watt, William Wells, and
Edward Wells. The Rev. F. S.
Bancroft announced that Chancel-
lor Collins ]. Seitz would be the
speaker at the Citizens Award
dinner to be held on Feb. 13.

ROTARY HEARS
RAILROAD TALK
]. A. Bull Traces Origin of
Railroads at Meeting on
Thursday Night
KINDS OF FREIGHT

]. A. Bull, public relations ex-
ecutive, Easton region, Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, was the speaker
at the meeting of the Smyrna
Rotary Club Thursday night, trac-
ing the origin of railroads. The
inherent advantages of the rail-
road is in moving large tonnage
over the rails with a small crew,
he said, as he told of all kinds
of freight handled. Passenger traf-
fic is swift and efficient, he con-
tinued, and increased traffic can
be handled with little additional
expense, thus increasing the net
income. The capital investment of
the Pennsylvania Railroad is two
thousand five hundred million doll
lars, according to the speaker,
Ninety percent of government
freight during World War II and
eighty-five percent of passenger
traffic was handled by the PRR,
he stated. The Inter State COM
merce Commission was praised
for their work in controlling prices
in interstate shipments. Mr.. Bull
urged sportsmanship and fairness
among the different shippers.
Clyde Underhill was chairman Of
the program, and George e. Bry-
son responded for the club. Mel
son Everhart led group singing.
Howard Pletsch presided. William
Wright and Mr.. Bull were guests

HISTORY ABOUT
ST. PETERS
Rev. Mr.. Bancroft Tells Of
Acquisition of Interesting
Piece of Literature
FOUND IN CINCINNATI

An interest in Americana ano
the alert eye of a Presbyterian
clergyman has enriched the ar
chives of st. Peters Episcopal
Church, Smyrna. The rector, the
Rev. Sydney Bancroft, told his
parishioners of the acquisition OF
an interesting piece of literature
at the annual meeting. 1t ha6
been presented to him by the Rev
DR.. John w. Christie, who had re-
Gently conducted the service al
the First Presbyterian Church
here. DR.. Christie, who is inter-
ested in things historical, and
particularly in Delawareans, in
credibly found a pamphlet while
browsing in bookstore in Gin
cinnati. 1t is entitled "A Mem
orial Containing a Brief Sketch
of the History of st. Peters Par
ish and a Sermon Preached at
the Conservation of st. Peters
Church, Smyrna, Delaware, May
6, 1859 by William Sparrow, DID.
Professor in the Theological Sem
mary of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in Virginia" 1t was pub
lished in Philadelphia in 1859 and
has never before been seen by
anyone at st. Peters Church. DIR.
Christie, who knew that he was
scheduled to preach at the local
Presbyterian Church, bought the
pamphlet and visited Mr.. Bancroft
the day he was in Smyrna to give
him the treasure. The folder con-
tains the sketch of st. Peters
Church," a copy of the letter
written to DR.. Sparrow by the
vestry on May z, 1859 asking for
a copy of his sermon; also, a copy
of his reply. The brief history is
invaluable, containing some facts
not heretofore known, and the
sermon by DR.. Sparrow is price,
less as an example of the quality
of the sermons preached one hum
dred years ago. Tt is a magnifi-
cent and erudite work, based on
the text: "And they builded and
finished it, according to the COM
mandment of the God of Israel"
A moving prayer at the end of
the sermon has great meaning
even today. He said: Let this
place be consecrated anew, every
Sabbath day, by your prayers. In
the privacy of your several pews
and of your individual hearts con-
stantly remember your families,
your friends, your neighbors, your
fellow-worshippers, your pastor.
Supplicate Him who alone can
teach men to profit in the things
of religion, and to grant that the
congregation which worships here
may ever have the hearing ear
and the understanding heart. And
so to many, many souls it may
be found at the last that this
house has been the house of God
and gate to Heaven"
