I OLD HOME TOWNS.
A Trip to the Eastern Shore ol
5 Maryland In the Counties ol
Worcester, Wicomico and Somerset.
I 1 left Weldon Monday, May 22,
t for Salisbury, Maryland, via Nor-
folk, Old Poiiu Comfort and Cape
Charles. Having been several
tj years since I passed through this
section of Virginia and Maryland,
1 preferred ilie day trip, so spent
. the night in Norfolk. Promptly at
j 8:14 Tuesday a. m., lite steamer
"City of Baltimore" left the N.
Y. P. & N. wharf. She steamed
quietly out of this wonderful har
"; bor, for Norfolk is well known for
I its extensive harbor for both for
; eign and domestic ships.
'i Just out from the harbor is the
i great naval base, built at at cost of
sjveral million dollars, by the Uni
I ted Staies government.
I Old Point Comfort scarcely
i seems the same, since the hotel
Chambetlain was destroyed by fire.
i It occupied a commanding position
f to sea voyages. We arrived at
' Cape Charles around 12 M., and
were'soon en rouie for Salisbury
by rail. The N. Y. P. St N. passes
through a beautiful agricultural
I section, potatoes being the main
crop in Virginia. Pocomoke City
I the first stop in Maryland has re-
I cenily been almost destroyed by
j fire.
:i I learned the people are already
1 Dre oaring to build a greater and
I more modern city. From Poco
S moke City up to Salisbury, we
, ' pass through a wonderful trucking
I sectiun, sirawberries being the
principal money crop The pick-
1 ing and shipping season was at its
height and the growers of berries
I were "all smiles" as the prices
were abnormally good. Around
Marion Station, a small community
i in Somerset county, the crop
was estimated to have netted over
i $300,000. Sirawberries grown
' on ihe Eastern Shore of Maryland
, are of the finest for table use. It
". was my good fortune to be served
I three- times a day with- some of
I the finest that ever graced the
i Queen's table. My hostess knew
the varieties by name, saying these
1 are Chesapeake, others Gandy,
f ete. They all seemed very deli
I cious to me. My stay in Salisbury
I was cut short by an invitation to
I visit Berlin, in Worcester county,
I Md. There were plenty of suaw-
. ; berries, as well as other good things
in Berlin, so I hadn't lost anything
in that line by the change. Auio-
mobiling in this section is up to
t nign water marK, as ine mate nign-
way connects all the principal
towns and cities. Berlin is situa
ted on the Ocean City Branch of
the Baltimore, Chesapeake and
Atlantic railroad, h has a number
of pretty homes with spacious
lawns, well kept, and one of th
largest and best equipped hotel
on the Eastern shore of Maryland
This is made possible by patronage
from Ocean City, only eight miles
distant by stone road and less by
railroad. Berlin is a town of less
than 1,500 inhabitants. The ex
tensive growth of shrubbery
perhaps augmented and inspired
by "Harrison's Nurseries," which
own and occupy miles and miles of
real estate, covered with all kinds
of shrubbery and evergreens.
They are also called the largest
fruit tree growers in the world. It
was my privilege to drive through
part of the evergreen and shrub
bery seciion, chaperoned by Mr.
A. P. Collins, one of the mana
gers, who described the planting,
cultivation, etc. My host mid hos
tess, Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Down
ing, wiih their son, Paul, drove us
over to Ocean City, where the
lurbulant Atlantic beats and washes
Ihe pebbled seashore. I was told
that a dead whale measuring fifty-
eight feet in length and seven feel
in diameter was washed ashore
few weeks before. Many people
from the neighboring towns went
over to view the great "sea fish
It was too huge to be moved, so
was dynamited back into the ocean
to be fed on by other forms of ani
mal life. 1 left Berlin for Salis
bury May lUin, ana arrived on
time to attend commencement ex
f
ercises of the Salisbury High
school. Their graduating class
numbered 59. They had just vo
ted on a bond issue of $300,000
for school improvemems but failed
to carry. 1 am glad to note here
that Weldon did not fail, bui schools
won out. It was my privilege to
visit in the home of one of the
Hjh school butchers who bi imi io tmic uattHgitall wrong,.
only taught for a number of years
but is a keen observer of efficiency
and progress. The school and its
eeds shares in her life and work.
I inquired about ihe manual train
ing and Domestic Science depart
ments and was gratified to learn
what wonderful ihings boys and
girls can do during the years ol
school training. If our bond issue
was in the future insiead of the
past, I would write more ai length
about these ihings, but one thing
only I will mention. Every gradu
ate in domestic science is required
lo make every garment she wears
t commencement, save shoes and
hose. Among other improvements
in Salisbury I note the erection of
a new Methodist Protestant church
building on North Division street.
It is a beautiful gray stone struct
ure with gothic windows, modern
n every respect. Finished and
equipped it will cost around $200,-
000. This is a test of loyalty of
the Methodist Protestants of Salis
bury during these so called stren
uous limes. My hostess Mrs.
Lankl'ord) drove us all around thai
seciion of couniry, out by Fruit
land, over Long Tank Mills, around
by Shad Point, up ihe river road,
by Pine Bluffs, the Slate Saniio
riuni for tuberculosis, back through
Camden (a charming residential
section of Salisbury.
The first eight or ten blocks
from Camden bridge were very
familiar to me, as these were in
evidence tweniy five years ago
when I drove in town ihai way
from my old home in Worcester
county, the home ol John H. Vin
cent,, of sainied memory. The
other portions are newer and per
haps more modern. As we didn't
want lo ifflss anything we visited
the movies on Friday night. 1
noted with interest the cleanness
of the show. I learn the Y. M. C
A., gives free movies every Satur
day night wiih an occasional bene
fit show.
A visit lo Princess Anne, the
couniy seal ol Somerset county,
brought back reminiscences of oth
er days. Sunday dawned beauii
ful and bright. It is, of course,
cusiomary for Christian people to
attend church. The chimes of
the M. E church South, were play
ing "Yes, Jesus Loves Me" and
other familiar songs, which seemed
to beckon us thither, so we went
in. Rev. Jack Peters was the
minister in charge. It was com
munion day and no sermon. The
choir rendered beauiiful selections
which were enjoyed. After lunch
another automobile trip was plann
ed. This lime by inviiaiion of ex
mayor of Salisbury, Win. F.
Bounds and his fair companion
We drove over in Somerset coumy
to visit the family of Mr. W. C.
Bounds. 1 failed to get down to
"Friendship" the church of my
childhood, where was planted in
my mind the first principles of
Christianity. Where 1 learned to
have an abiding faith in God which
gave strength to impulse and in
auirv. From its lovely altars I
learned to "Search ihe Scriptures
for in them we find the words of
eternal life. Out from this church
have gone men and women with
broad visions of usefulness in ihe
great reforms of the world. They
"wrought well" would be a suita.

bodies lie beneaih the sod in mis

On Monday, June 5in, we star

we had not travelled in vain.

A UENEROUS ACT.
The following letter explains it
self. This is a very generous act
on the pan of Ihe Weldon Ice Com
pany and one, we have no doubi,
will be highly appreciated:
Mr. J. W. Sledge,
Weldon, N. C.
Dear Mr. Sledge: Realizing that
the lime has come when ice is no
longer a luxury, bui a necessity,
and especially with the sick, we
have decided that to those who
are unable to purchase ihe neces
sary ice on account of sickness
and will oresent to us an order
from their attending physician
stating they are in need of same
we will furnish them without any
cost so long as their physician
deems it necessary.
Yours very truly,
Weldon Ice Company,
By C. E. Carter.

Calomel is dangerous. It may

calomel. It is mercury; quicksil

constipated and all knocked outijust
go to your druggist and get a bot

calomel. Take a spoonful and if

No salts necessary. Give it to ihe
