Farm Real Estate
Declines In State
(continued iron» nrat page)
tie areas of the Southwest and the
Great Plains have dropped as much
as 10 percent.
Sharp declines have come in
farm-real estate transactions. Sell
ers often find themselves looking
for buyers, and at times selling
prices have fallen more than two
percent.
There is a gleam of optimism,*
Bausman believes. Prices of farm
commodities in Delaware have not
declined during the past year, and
appear to be stabilized for this cur
rent period.
About 28 per cent of U. S. pub
lic school children ride in school
busses.

Georgetown Alumni
Met Last Friday
The Georgetown Alumni Associa
tion held its 25th annual reunion
in the new cafeteria of the George
town High School last Friday
night. May 28th.
William G. Lambden. president,
introduced Thomas R. Purnell,
toastmaster for the banquet, held
at 630 p. m. A welcome address to
the Class of 1954, who were honor
guests, was extended by William
D. Stevenson.
The roll-call of classes, by Ray
mond A. Rust, was answered by
the following classes; 1902 (three
members), 1909, 1910, 1911. 1914,
1915, 1918, 1920, 1923, 1926, 1927.
1928, 1929, 1930, 1932, 1933, 1934,
1935, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940,
1941. 1942, 1943, 1945, 1946, 1947,
1948, 1949, 1951, 1952, and 1963.
Drew Abbott, president of the
Class of 1954, made the response to
the welcome extended the class.
In the business session officers
for the ensuing term were unani
mously elected; Christian Mack,
president Austin B. Carlisle, Mrs.
Peggy WalU Booth and Dr. Charles
R. Cannon, Jr., First, Second, and
Third vice-presidents, respectively:
Mrs. Helen Pase Collins, secretary,
and Miss Carolyn Foskey, treasurer.
The speaker was Rev. William
B. Hitchens, of Claymont, Del., a
graduate of Georgetown High
School, Class of 1940. His subject
was "Words". Pointing out that
"words are vitally important; may
be helpful or harmful; some bet
ter left unsaid and the necessity
of thinking before speaking", he
went on to base his remarks upon
four words—"I"; WE—They and '
Us—*, Addressing his remarks to the
graduating class he told them "We
all deal with ourselves and if we
are not careful in our code of liv
ing we become too wrapped up in
self." He emphasized the impor
tance of character and stated "We
all leave some kind of record as
evidence of character. Making your
way into the hearts of men is not
looks but the type of person you
are—loyal or disloyal—honest or
dishonest—; t hat is what people
will remember of you". "Charac
er," he said, "is priceless yet you
cannot place a price tag upon it;
it is written into the very fabric
of your life". He urged the class
to "tear away glamour and gloss
and begin making a life with a
right start." Rev. Hitchens in
speaking of We—told the impor
tance of selecting a proper mate
for life and cited results of good
or bad selections. In considering
They , he discussed people with j
whom we come in contact and the |
importance'of a broad understand
ing of others and their problems, j
not only locally but nationally and
pointed out that many problems ,
face us today which are of explo- i
sive quality and need to be worked
out with patience, understanding
and tolerance, and the extending j
of the hand of friendship. "The i
world today does not need the
threat of the bomb, nor the bomb
itself, but a cup of cold water." i
he stated, in speaking of the hy
drogen bomb. "How we answer to
day will largely determine the fu
ture world." He defined "Us" and i
ourselves and God, who is con-1
cerned in every individual and will
sustain every one in suffering and i
disappointment; aid in meeting
every important decision in life, j
How we handle problems and our
lives depends upon our belief in a i
sszr'°iï: «vr»
Open our lives to God. complete
ly. and we will find life will take
on a new meaning for us. personal
ly. He closed by pointing out.
Lveryone needs a helping hand,
locally, nationally—and we can
give great answers. It's a great
time to be alive—we can take these
four words and use them for ns and
for every one else."
The invocation and benediction
was given by Rev. William O.
Hackett, pastor of Wesley Metho
dist Church; group singing was in
charge of Mrs. Mary Hunt Nichols,
and Philip Taylor, of the musical
departments in the Georgetown
High School. Mrs. Preston Work
man gave the report of the nomina
ting committee.
The annual dance in the school,
followed the banquet, with music
by Bill Rugg and his orchestra.
The Class of 1942 held its 10th
anniversary meeting in the old
cafeteria with 21 members, their
wives and husbands in attendance.
A feature of the program was a
playback of a record made in the
senior year; a showing of a film
of May Day exercises of the class
in 1924 and a period of reminis
cence. This was followed by a
party held in the Log Cabin dur
ing the intermission of the Alumni
Dance.
The Class of '44 plans another
reunion 5 years from now.
SOUVENIR MONEY
LOS ANGELES — (/P) — Two
magazine photographers, returned
from a 60,000-mile picture taking
trek through South and Central
America found their highest priced
models were head-shrinking Jivar
os of Ecuador—who asked $25 a
day, just for a souvenir.
Earl Leaf and Pat Hartley, who
covered the distance by canoe, mule
and airplane, said the Ecuador
aboriginals set the high price after
a film studio shot background
scenes in their area and others
came there to take photographs of
the people.
"They have no contact with the
outside world and never use the
money," Hartley says.

Newark, which packs cosmetic pro- j
ducts for shipping and storage. Mr.
Shurat advised a group of volun
teer workers, who in turn served
as instructors to the others.
The packaging took many months.
Each first aid station kit includes !
hundreds of items large and small.
These first had to he packaged indi
vidually, then stowed" in cartons
and wooden boxes.
Volunteers from the Delaware
Chapter, American Red Cross,
packed the individual items in neo
prne poly-pack bags, and also as
sisted the Legion volunteers in put
ting the items into boxes and car
tons.
The Legionnaires were from the
Richard C. duPont Post, Claymont,
and worked under the direction of j
James E. Heal, Past Department |
Commander and a member of the
Post.
The entire operation took almost
three years of work and planning.
In 1951, the Governor's Civil De
fense Advisory Council approved

000 in State funds matched by an
equal amount of Federal money, on
ihe recommendation of Dr. Hudson.
The materials arrived in Dela
ware in sporatic shipments and
were stored first at the Brandywine
Sanitorium and later at Fort du - 1
Pont on the campus of the Governor |
Bacon Health Center.
When the purchasing and stock - 1

of volunteers were appointed to
break down the shipments and re

Plenty Of Fried
Chicken For All
The thousands of visitors who
attend the Chicken Festival at
Georgetown during the three-day
period will be able to indulge in
Delmarva chicken at will .
A special battery of "frying ma
chines" set up in a kitchen pavilion
at the East end of the school, will
be manned by Hotpoint and Proctor
and Gamble personnel. Hotpoint
has assumed responsibility for pro
viding the frying machines, and
Proctor and Gamble will furnish
the shortening. A team of special
ly selected high school girls will
serve the luscious brown chicken
as it finishes cooking.
"Frying machines" is not a typo
graphical error. It is thé term that
best fits the new equipment, known
in restaurant circles as Mark 313.
Any one of these famous huge deep
fry kettles has a record production
capacity of 313—2-ounce servings
of french fries in an hour, hence
the name Mark 313.
The new frying machines, allow
ing exact control of temperatures,
succeed the "largest fry kettle in
the world", a flame-heated device
used at former Delmarva Chicken
Festivals.
Enjoy a piece of delicious golden
brown Delmarva fried chicken
turned out by today's modern
methods.
