Long time residents declare that
this is the best and largest corn
show that New Castle County has
ever had. There were a total of
81 exhibits on display and many
of these were of the 50 ear class.
The show was held in one of the
largest rooms in Wolf Hall but
with this fact, it was necessary to
stack many of the samples to make
room. Prof. A. E. Grantham judg

care of your Christmas needs. You can plan your shopping tour here with the
confident assurance that no matter how large your list you will be able to make
every purchase—and in doing this Christmas Shopping becomes a real pleasure

ed the exhibits and with his assist
ant it was about four hours before
all the ribbons were placed.
There is no reflection upon a
man's corn if he showed and did
not receive a ribbon. The competi
tion was so sharp that many ex
cellent samples were below the
winning four. However there was
not an exhibitor who did not feel
well paid for his trouble in select
ing his sample. It was gratifying
to note the number of new exhibit
ors in the show. Many of the ex
hibitors saw where their samples
fell short and went home determin
ed to come back strong next year.
The farmers of New Castle
County are to be congratulated
upon this show. The County Agent
desires to urge that the farmers of
the County get acquainted with the
ribbon winners and if your corn is
not up to standard see them about
seed for next year. It is obvious
that the sample at the show repre
sented the best the exhibitor had
but a sample of show corn cannot
be selected from a crop of poor
corn and it is also obvious that if
his sample won honors at this
show, that he has a crib of corn at
home that should be use for noth
ing else than seed over the state.
The 1918 State Corn Show is to
be held at Middletown January 2
3-4. The county Show is a prep
aratory school for the State Show
and judging from the number and
quality of the exhibits at our Coun
ty Show, Delaware will have her
record State Show in January. New
Castle County must follow up her
County Show record and set a pace
down at Middletown that Kent and
Sussex Counties will have to dust
to equal.
Whether it is for complete plumb
ing work for a new house or
small repair job, any service w«
perform large or small receive*
the same careful attention and skil
ful handling. ?We have the exper
ience, the knowledge and the facil
ities to do any job right, at the
right figures. Get our estimates,

OPENS SEASON
Schedule For The Season An
nounced
Under the careful direction of
Coach Baumgartner of Delaware
College, the local High School team
has developed into a fast organiza
tion.
With only two veterans, condi
tions at the beginning of the sea
son seemed anything but promis
ing, but the green material has
surpassed all expectations, and we
have in our belief, a team that will
show the stuff.
Armstrong and Moore, the star
forwards, work together in perfect
accord, and are sure shots from all
corners of the floor. Williams, our
center, has attracted attention by
his sure shooting and remarkable
endurace. Captain Ramsey is the
same fighting guard that he proved
himself last season. The other j
.position is being hotly contested 1
,by Robinson and Rosseland. Both
are reliable guards, and it will be
difficult to make a chance. Rowan
is pushing Williams for the center
.position. While P. Moore and
^Iaffit are prepared to fill a vac
ancy at any time.
The schedule is as follows:
Dec. 14—Dover H. S. at Dover.
,Dec. 15—Wesley Collegiate Insti
tute at Dover.
Dec. 18— W. F. S. at Wilmington.
Jan. 4— W. H. S. at Wilmington.

Jan. 10—D. H. S. at Dover.
Jan. 18—Oxford H. S. at Newark.
Jan. 23—Elkton H. S. at Elkton.
Feb. 1— O. H. S. at Oxford.
.Feb. 8—W. C. A. at Newark.
Feb. 13—E. H. S. at Newark.
