Dear Friends,
I'm sorry l have not been able
to write to you sooner, but we are
always so busy that have so little
time to write letters.
Today Carla and l visited the
Dahlem Museum. 1t really is a
magnificent museum. Among other
notable works of art are twenty
eight works of Rembrandt.
The ATS. is making sure we
see as much of Berlin as possible
before we depart. All ATS. 'ers
toured East and West of Berlin on
chartered buses. During the next
weeks we are in for busy time!
Among other ATS. activities is
reception of the Berlin Senate.
Everyone is looking forward to
this since we will meet the Cover
nor Mayor of Berlin there Some
of the other activities are an all
day boat ride on the lakes and
rivers of Berlin, a tour of the
Charlottenburg Palace, a tour of
the Federal Reception Camp for
Refugees, and a tour of the UFA,
the biggest movie outfit in Berlin.
| also have been attending
school with my sister. l was in
deed a little sorry to see the holi-
days begin! The director of Carla's
school and l became almost i'm
mediately "old friends" He had
lived in the States for about ten
years so spoke American" Eng
lish quite fluently. He was a pro-
fessor at Emory College for seven
years.
Although, dare say, no one is
looking forward to our time of de-
parture, we received this week
our dates for departure. We will
leave Berlin on four different
planes on August 18th and 18th
for Hanover. From Hanover we
will go to Bremen where we will
be the guests of the Senate of the
City. This end-of-summer stay in
Bremen is an old ATS. tradition.
There will be many interesting
activities for the whole German"
group. We will leave Europe on
the 18th of August from Rotter-

Historical Data
On Dover Buildings

Most historical Dover buildings
are significant because of events
which occurred in this state many
years ago. But at least one owes
its claim for recognition to the
state of Virginia.
That isl the three-story Della
ware Trust building on the corner
of Loockerman and Bradford
Streets, which is patterned after
Montpelier, the home at Orange,
Va, built by President Madison's
father.
The stylish colonial lines har-
monize with the architecture of
many other buildings at the state
capital. This fact prompted the
Friends of Old Dover to present
Mr.. William DUPONT, Jr., president
and chairman of the board, with
an award.
The history of the Dover bark
dates back to 1911 when it was
founded as the Peoples Guaranty
& Trust Company The original
bank building replaced a clothing
store which had been operated at
the corner for a number of years.
Peoples became a part of the
Delaware Trust Company about
1916, and Howard M. Buckson,
who had been associated with the
original bank, was named its man.
ager Mr.. Buckson retired in 1851
after 40 years of service, and his
son, H. Irving Buckson, was
named to succeed him. The latter
was appointed assistant vice presi-
dent last year, and John j. Won
Reider was named branch manag-
er.
In 1949 the old bank building
was demolished and the new colo
NAL building was constructed, be-
The growth of Dover over the
past four decades has been paral-
leled by the growth of the bank it
self. During this period, savings
deposits have increased tenfold,
and total demand deposits have
increased Is times.
The new Delaware Trust office
contains facilities for seven tellers
and offices for bank officers on the
first floor, space for records and
the bookkeeping and transit de-
partments on the second floor, and
storage facilities and a directors
room on the third floor The vaults
and safe deposit departments are
in the basement.
Each tellers unit has its own
roll-over cover which automatical-
ly locks all drawers when closed
electric and telephone outlets, a
counter and coin changer, and
buzzer and gas connections.
Ever the most modern equip
Ement doesn't solve all problems,
though. Some time ago the bank
staff was buffaloted when the time
changed to daylight saving but
the mechanism en- the vault re-
mained on standard At the open
ing of business on Monday, the
banks cash drawers were empty.
Fortunately, the first customers OF
the day made deposits instead of
Withdrawals. Through this man
ner, the staff was able to obtain
enough money to conduct business
until an hour had passed and the
vault mac nnonod

l will speak this week of Mrs.
Annie d. Belts, eldest daughter of
the late Captain and Mrs. George
H. West, and now passed to her
reward
Mrs. Annie d. Belts was the post
mistress of Ocean View many years
ago, that is so years or more. She
was capable person, and when
she commanded us to keep quiet
while she read the names out loud
of those receiving mail, letters, ETC.,
we usually did so. OF course, there
was more or less confusion when
the mail came into the post Office
at that time. She was also a millin-
er, and carried on the millinery
business, having taken course in
Philadelphia, as hats were made
and trimmed the way who selected,
by the milliner; for example, one
choose the kind of flowers, ribbons,
etc., that you desired.
In her youth, Mrs. Annie ID. Belts
then or formerly Annie d. West
was married to Samuel Belts of this
town. From this union there were
two sons, namely, now Elmer Belts,
who graduated from Lehigh Uni
versity, and attended Anne Arun-
del Academy. He taught school and
afterwards went to Fayetteville, N.
c., where he married and they have
one son whose name is George
Belts. Elmer Belts and Sarah, his
wife, were in the tourist business
there for some time, but both are
uISdDIeu dl pEeSSuC, anu are UeluS
cared for in a nursing home.
The second son, Alvin Belts, is
a pharmacist, and he, DR.. and Mrs.
Alvin Belts, i've in Lumberton, N.
c., and is not toe far away from
his brother Elmer.
/ remember him as a boy walk
ing on stills here in Ocean View.
Their mother, Mrs Annie ..
Belts, was bereaved of her hus-
band. Samuel Belts, during the
blizzard of 1888, when the sailing
vessel, on which he was one of the
crew, was lost at sea, and never
heard from.

State Fire
Marshal Has Urged
Escape Procedure
(continued rom page onel


Awaken people by shouting fret
If there is a phone in the room.
quickly call the fire department.
IF the door does not feel hot,
open it slightly Hold your head
away, brace the door with your
foot, and put your hand across the
opening to determine how hot and
smoky the air is. If the hallway
appears to be cool and there are
no flames or smoke pouring up the
stairway, you may be able to use
this regular route of escape.
However, if there is any ques-
ton about safe passage down the
stairs, go back to the window and
await rescue.
'sBe sure to keep the bedroom
door closed. The door is a good fire
wall which may give you two to
five minutes of extra time if flames
leap up the hallway. If hallway
outside your upstairs bedroom is
af1ame, go to the window, shout for
help, but don't jump out. You
might be injuring yourself need
lessly.
"Open the window, breathe the
fresh aid outside and stay calm.
Look below to see if there is a
porch roof beneath the window. If
so, and smoke and flames are be-
ginning to enter the room around
the door, crawl out on the porch to
await rescue.
If it becomes necessary to jump
| to the ground, drop bedding, pill
lows, clothing or anything else
soft on the ground beneath the
window, thus making a cushion to
land on. Then, lower yourself over
the window sill to reduce the dis
tance to the ground and drop onto
the pile of bedding"
Fire Marshal Favinger conclud-
ed by pointing out that fire strikes
without warning and advised that
having a workable escape plan
with which everyone in the home is
familiar may well mean the diff
ference between life and death in

Fall Gardens Easy Now

The high moisture we've receiv-
ed lately has put plenty of water
in the soil to make a fall garden
an easy chore, County Agricultural
Agent William H. Henderson says.
For example, it's good time for
snap beans. In fact, you can make
two plantings- about two weeks
apart to spread the harvest.
Both white and yellow turnips
are also easy to grow and are a
welcome change in menu in the
fall.
Cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli,
kale and endive can all be planted
successfully now, Henderson add
ed.
