Mrs. Daniel Goldman, of Baltimore, recently COM
pleted two-week diary" of her famys telephone
calls For each call she also estimated the amount
of time, travel and money that was saved by teIe-
phoning. At the end of two weeks, the Godmans'
telephone diary showed savings of 81 valuable hours,
293 miles of travel and $22.38.
Mrs. Goldman, who is the mother of four young
children (a under ten years. and is active in
charitable and community AFFAIRS finds her teIe-
phone invaluable. She says, 81 don't think our family
could accomplish two-thrds of the things we do

isn't every night. or even every

ment that one of the leading
characters has just departed

the cue for a theater-wide guf-
faw.
Some patience on the part of
the playgoer is required before
Write Me a Murder" can be
enjoyed. Its expository first act
is overlong and does not COM
pletely escape being tedious. OF
course there would be a lot
more plays written if it were

Mr.. Knots play is another
attempt at the perfect, if i'm
possibly complicated crime.
The setting is one of those
stately homes of England am
ply equipped with French doors
so essential to intricate MUIR
der plots.
The head of the household
is upstairs dying and the son
scheduled to inherit the family
seat is preparing to sell the
works-house, acreage and viii
iage-to an uncouth self-made
commoner. The other son, a
writer who lives on a house
boat. turns up and is aghaSt
at his brothers plan.
The prospective buyer and
his wife pop in. She turns out
to be an aspiring author, so
her husband talks the writer
into helping her with a short
story for a contest. Proximity
and normally functioning
glands do their work and the
story the two concoct turns
out to be an ingenious plot
for doing away with the huS-
band without getting caught.
1t is a hare-brained scheme,
but its would-be perpetrators
are quite taken with it. How
1t works out. of course. must
be left to them and to the
others on the Olney stage.

Winter Tips For
Strawberry Growers

There are two jobs that Della
ware strawberry growers should
have on the top of their list of
things to be done if they have not
already done them, says Ed Ralph,
Sussex Associate County Agent
These jobs are mulching and win
ter weed control if chickweed is a
problem
There are several advantages to
mulching Some of these are as
follows:
1. Heaving of the plants out of
the ground is reduced
2. Berries are cleaner at harvest.
3. Moisture is conserved during
dry periods.
A. Fruit diseases are e d u d
since berries are not on wet soil.
5. Crowns are protected from
winds and low temperature.
6. Mulch helps to reduce weed
growth.
Z. Blooming is delayed by mulch
ing so danger of frost damage is
not as great.
Chloro IPC should be used for
the control of chickweed in straw
berries according to Prof. e. M.

Phone Company Is
Planning For 1862

John d. Moore, local manager of
the Diamond State Telephone Com
pany, pointed out that Bell plans
TO invest approximately 100000
during 1862 for the construction of
outside plant facilities, such as
cable lines, in the area served by
the Avenue. Deerfield, Exeter, Gar
den, Gypsy, Myrtle. Olive, and Red
field central Offices.
There are now more than 30,100
telephones served by the eight To-
cal Offices, Moore said. Some 1900
telephones are expected to be add
ed in this area during 1862.
Last year, customers served by
these Offices originated more than
10000 calls on the average business
day. This figure is expected to
grow to $4,000 a day in 1862. APP
proximateIy 5000 of these daily
calls will be long distance calls,
Moore stated
More than y per cent of the
families in this area have tele-
phone service. By the end of 1862,
the company anticipates this to
grow to "A per cent, he said.
