1 Sa,U You Flirting With That Mrs. Jones

saw you flirting with that Mrs.
Jones.
was Not flirting - was telling
her about the fall session of the
Securities and Investment classes
being conducted through the
Brokerage Firm of Laird, Bissell
and Needs at the Dover Hotel,
Dover Delaware beginning Octo-
Der ID, 1858.
A likely story!
/ told her that Laird, Bissell and
Needs is a Member Firm of the
New York Stock Exchange and
that there is no charge for these
classes.
If that's what you were talking
about, what put that CLINT in her
eye?
l said that because Laird, Bissell
and Needs are a Member Firm.
They must necessarily have at
least one partner who has a seat
membership on the New York
Stock Exchange and too, that the
personnel of the Dover Offices of
Laird, Bissell and Needs who will
be giving these classes are regis
tered personnel that is, they are
registered with the New York
Stock Exchange and the National
Association of Security Dealers
and they include Mr.. Walter Bur-
rows, Resident Manager, Mr.. Ed
die Isaacs, Jr., Mrs. Esther R. Bur-
rows and Mrs. Lilly M. Decker.
suppose that's when she gave
you that big sweet smile?
No that was when l told her that
not all Brokerage Houses are
Member Firms and not all Securi-
ties Representatives are Register
ed Representatives. AS matter of
fact there are many rigid qualifi-
cations which must be met as to
moral, ethical and financial re-
sponsibility by Brokerage Houses
before they become fully qualified
as Registered Representatives by
the New York Stock Exchange
and the National Association of
Securities Dealers.
And what were you saying this to
her for?
Because l wanted her to be sure
and know that Laird, Bissell and
Needs is Member Firm, that the

does last two hours-from seven
o'clock to nine o'clock and with
the film that is to be shown and
the guest speaker we are to hear
we will be glad for cup Of coffee
or a coke.
Do just Dover people attend?
Oh, my goodness no! All interest
ed people are invited to attend
from the entire surrounding area
and l imagine people will be there
from towns like Smyrna, Middle
town, Kenton, Harrington, Mil
ford, Georgetown, Seaford, Lewes,
Rehoboth and over in Maryland
Denton, Chestertown, Cambridge,
Centerville and naturally many of
the personnel from the Dover Air
Force Base and their wives.
Well John l am sold, | think we
should attend. Of course, l suppose
there will be another session af-
ter this one which you said would
end on Tuesday, November 10,
1858.
Yes, there is going to be another
class which will be the fifth class
in number and that will be con-
Quoted in Milford, Delaware i'm
mediately after this one.
The only thing that see that they
might have missed and one of the
things / am sure Mrs. Jones would
wonder about and that is; it would
be nice to see the Stock Exchanges
in action.
Oh, told her, that on conclusion
of the class, weather permitting,
bus transportation will be arrang-
ed to take the class up to New
York for a one day tour to visit
the New York Stock Exchange,
American Stock Exchange, and
the Cotton Exchange so that
everybody can see the actual OPP
Grafton of the buying and selling
of securities and commodities.
Tell you what let's do; let's call
up the Smiths and the Browns
and we will make up party of
the six of us and attend each class.
Right, that's a fine idea and I
think as you do, that the course
is very worthwhile.
Honey, l am sorry, you really are
not flirt after all.

Farming is more dangerous
than any other occupation except
mining and construction work.
About $4,000 farm residents die
in accidents every year. Several
non-farm occupations entail more
accident injuries, but farm acci-
dents are more serious.
Believing that farm accidents
can best be prevented through
educ alton, the University of
Maryland's Agriculture Education
Department h undertaken a
study to identify the causes of
accidents on Maryland farms, and
to develop teaching techniques
that will reduce hazards, make
rural people safety conscious and
result in fewer farm accidents.
Through the cooperation of the
vocational agriculture teachers
and students in six Maryland
schools, 288 farms were surveyed
for accident hazards. On these

He urged immediate abandon

of a new special school for the

He said this would be cheaper

A long-range program for edu-
cation of the county's handi-
capped and retarded children has
been asked by several county or
CARNATIONS.
Three separate groups sub
mitted pleas at last weeks pub
lie hearing on the proposed 1889

County Association for Retarded
Children.
Special classes are now
provided by the schools for

Arthur D. Simonds, jr., execu-
tive secretary of the Education
Association, petitioned the board
for two-point program:
. A definite time-schedule for
bringing all the handicapped chill
dren into the special education
program.
. A clear statement as to how
far the system will move toward
this ultimate goal within the next
school year.

lowing a safety campaign a rec
ord of accidents on the farms
surveyed was kept for the ensu-
ing year. During this year the
288 farms reported only six acci-

To measure the effectiveness
of the educational campaigns, ac-
cident records were kept on an
other group of 800 farms in six
other communities where no safe
ty campaign was conducted. Dur
ing the year, a total of % acci-
dents were reported on these

conclusions drawn, results this
far indicate that safety instruc-
ton does pay off in reduced acci-

Landscaping
Plea Given
School Heads

The county school board last
week was asked once again to re-
lieve P-TAs of the burden of
paying for school landscaping.
P-TAs have asked, to no avail,
that landscaping costs be included
in appropriations for building
new schools.
Last week, Mayor Warren Vim
ton of Somerset asked the board
to "see the error of its parsimoni-
Gus ways"
Inadequate landscaping at SOM
erset Elementary School, he said,
has resulted in school grounds
which are really obnoxious to
the town." Vinton said:
"We became acutely aware of
this problem last year when your
playground washed down into
our streets. We've been haul
ing your dirt away at our ex-
pense."

Confederate Money
First of a Series)

The study of the financial
history of the Confederate
States of America offers an
almost complete history Of
money compressed into con-
venient capsule form. In its
four-year life. the Confed-
eracy resorted to every ex-
pedient known to finance,
ranging from the most dig
niiied to the most desperate.
Although overshadowed by
the more dramatic military
events Of the time. the crea-
ton Of a Treasury Depart
ment was a matter Of great
concern and thoughtful plan
ming. Donations we're &C
cepted: taxes Of many kinds
were imposed; export and
import duties were collected;
an elaborate system of loans
was devised; Federal minis
and customhouses located in
the South were seized: and
enemy property confiscated.
Oficially, the Confederate
States of America was born
when delegates from six
Southern States met at
Montgomery, Alabama on
February 4. 1861. and drafted
a constitution. Jefferson
Davis was elected President
and was inaugurated on Feb
ruary 10. The next day Davis

Secretary of the Treasury.
Memminger Immediately
began to organize his depart
ment, following closely the
system devised by Alexander
Hamilton. Fortunately for the
Confederacy, many compe-
tent men resigned their posi-
lions with the United States
Treasury Department to as
sumo identical duties with
the South. This movement Of
personnel from Washington
to Montgomery even included
one efficient individual,
Charles T. Jones, who was
able to bring with him from
Washington copies Of all the
forms in use in all Of the
several bureaus" This re-
markable foresight enabled
him to join the Registers bu-
reau as Chief Clerk. a posi-
ton he filled with great en-
thusiasm.
Thus. by June 30. 1861, the
