Will some one send us answers to
the questions propounded that they
may be published? The conflicting
views Of two or more persons would
make interesting reading.
We certainly made a mistake last
year by not discussing some part u
the reading circle work in our coun.
ty association meetings.

County uniformity is surely
another point gained in favor ofgood
schools in Union county. The &C.

the cost will be about one fifth less

The Summer School at Madison
was a success. The enrolment was

We find both forms in use in the

pupils are attending institute. This

intend to teach is very commend.

Are there not others? Remembe,

Supt. Sheehan is planning to hold

To every Democrat who has Of late
taken any interest in the affairs Of his
party in New Castle county, there must
have come feeling Of the gravest
anxiety. The general apathy which per-
vades the rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party, especially in this city, the
lack Of definite policy on the part Of
those men who should be, and are looked
upon as party leaders, and the fact that
there seems to be nothing Of that per
sonal political contact between the
Democratic masses and those who by
reason Of superior opportunities Of edu-
cation are qualified to guide and lead
those masses in the right direction, are

pearance and give promise of abundant
crops Where the trees are of an even
size in the pear and apple orchards the
blossoms are SO thick and full that the
orchards look exactly like a heavy snow
storm had visited them. The delicate,
plnk-tinted peach blossoms are beauti-
fully developed and in healthy condi-
tion. Although the condition Of tie
fruit trees is all that could be desired,
yet the farmers are rejoicing With
fear and trembling. Just one year ago
TO- day the orchards were in splendid
condition Everything indicated a rich
harvest of the fruit for which Delaware
has world wide renown. Early in the
morning of April IS. last year, furious
storm arose and In an instant every hope
was blighted 1t is to be earnestly hoped
that no euch misfortune will occur this
year. The proceeds Of such fruit crop
as is promis ell would not only place hun
ireds Of farmers on their feet again and
lift the mortgage Of many happy homes,
but it would give employment to
thousands Of people. The little towns all
through the lower part Of the county and
state would become busy market centers,
as they have been in years past.
