seeing that there were not
enough workers at the regis

Smyrna will have but one hotel
to- serve the interest of the
travelling public. The Smyrna
House will be vacated by Den
ney A. Goldsborough, who will
become manager of the Della
ware House. The old hostelrie
will in a short while be torn
down to make way for Smyr-
mas new Federal Building. We
have never sanctioned tearing
down the Smyrna House when
so many other buildings in
town could be better sacrificed,
but then the powers that be"
have elected and acquired title
to the old hotel property on
Main Street and soon the new
postoffice will go up. Be this
as it may, Smyrna need not be
discouraged over the fact that
we have but one hotel. If bust
ness justifies, there is nothing
to prevent the building of a
new and modern hostelrie. A
sufficient aggregation of capital
can at any time erect a hotel,
while the acquiring of a Fed
eral Building is a chance of a
life time. Let us hope that
Smyrna will prosper and grow
and that the new $4,000 Fed
eral Building will be followed
by the erection of a modern
and up-to-date hotel. No need
quibbling over the past or cry
ing over spilled milk. The one
thing Smyrna needs is to induce
new industries and a business
growth and with this will come
more hotels, more business
places and a growing town.
