Have we a BOARD of Health 2

The heat of summer is approaching
and the town is practically WITHOUT q
Board of Health. A month or so ago
the old Board was displaced by the
Town Commissioners and O new one
appointed. Three of the six attending
members were physicians. DR.. Ash

Secretary. Efficiency and promptness
characterized the officers and the com
mittees who co-operated with them.

black was made affecting health, that

attention. The history of the past de-
eade shows that in every visitation of
smallpox, diptheria and scarlet fever,
by isolation, fumigatlon &C., such
noxious diseases have been stamped
out before they got u foothold. Be-
cause of this idea of the "Ounce of pre-
ventiOn beiEg worth more than the
pound of cure" leaving them nothing
for months to do unless they should
set to work to hatch disease to please
some who wanted to see them "dOing
something" caused the hippant remark
Of a member of the Board that they
were 'doing nothing" followed by a
motion for a new Board of Health. DIR.
Moore who was named as one of the
new members declines to serve as does
also another.
DIR. Clifton (who was one of the dis
placed members) has been elected to
take the place of DIR. Moore but per-
emptorily declines to be thus shuflod
about, looking upon It as a reflection
on his past associates. The old Board

Treatment Of Newspaper Bills.

Many men think that newspaper
men are persistent dunners. By way
of comparison let us suppose that far
mer raises 1000 bushels of wheat and
sells this to 1000 persons in all parts of
the country, great portion of them
saying, "I will hand you the money in
a short time" The farmer does not
want to be small and says all right.
Soon the 1000 bushels are gone, but he
has nothing to show for it, and then he
realizes that he has fooled away his
whole crop, and its value to him is due
in a thousand little driblets, conse-
quently he is seriously embarrassed in
his business, because his debtors, each
owing him dollar, treat it as a small
matter and think it would not help
much. Continue this kind of business
year in and year out as the publisher
does, how long would he stand it? A
moments thought will convince any
one that publisher has cause for per
sistent dunning.
The foregoing are the remarks of the
State Sentinel. To it might be added
the fact that the publisher must pay
cash for labor, paper and other mater.
ials which he uses to produce an article
on which from one to ten years credit
is expected Milford NelOs.

SMYRNA has the honor of entertain
ing this week the clerical and lay dele
gates of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, in Diocesan Convention.
While not so numerous as several
other denominations, they occupy a
prominent place in nearly every com.
munity and hence whatever may come
before them for deliberation, must pass
out as of more or less interest to the
State at large. Bishop Alfred Lee was
so long in charge of the Diocese of
Delaware that the mind of those not
Immediately connected with this
church naturally reyerts to him-his
pure life and devotion to his God and
his country. In his successor, Bishop
Leighton Coleman, the Diocese finds a
head Of unusual physical endurance,
devotion to his work and varied talent
in administering the functions of his
high Office, and it is not to be expected
that one of such masculinity of thought
could endure the efeminacy which a
millinery ritualism has set up in some
churches in later years to the exclu
sion or rather supersedure Of self alb.
negation and sincere worship.
The Episcopal Church has great op
portunities before it, it will but accept
them. Certain conditions of societ,
open a place for it as for no other com
munion, and it behooves its clergy {,
carry to such communities the "sincerl
milk of the word" and not ritualisti,
hummeries. or church anarchism, a
Bishop Paret termed it, that but deadel
spiritual perceptions.
The Convention met last evening
and will hold through to-day and to
morrow morning, and will, we hope
reach good and satisfactory results
It has been nine years since the Cor
vention met here, when Bishop lie
presided. There are now about SOC

The business situation, says the
Ledger is waiting one. Everything
depends on the settlement of the tariff
question and of the coal strike. With
both of these causes of disturbance out
of the way there is reason to believe
that business would begin to improve
slowly, and with right kind of issue
in next NoVember's elections this i'm
provement would be greatly accelera-
ted. Doubtless the stock market, now
so dead, would be quickly revived by
these events and begin to discount the
improvement long in advance. The
discussion of the Tariff bill in the Sen
ate is evidently nearing its last stage

For Pnhlic Gnnd

The association which was formed
Thursday last at the New-Century
Clubs building, Wilmington, adopted
as its title Delaware Union for the
Public Good" The constitution defines
the objects of the members and pro-
vides rules for their government.
The scope of this organization is an
extended one, the sole end sought after
being TO accomplish only that which
will be for the public good. There is
nothing which can be done in the di-
rection of improving the social, moral.
business, hygenic and political tone of
the State omitted in the clause enumer-
ating the objects of the organization.
The members have undoubtedly un-
dertaken says the Morning NeiUs what
may prove to be hopeless task, but
even though they should be able to
bring about one radical reform of the
many which are so badly needed, it
will not have labored in vain.
1t is an encouraging sign of the times
when men and women join together in
an earnest effort to right wrongs, to
prevent the growth of evils, and to bet
ter the condition of mankind generally.
1t is an evidence that they are think
ing earnestly concerning the serious
problems of the day. We wish the
Delaware Union for Public Good every
possible success in the work which thev
have set out tc perform. The organi-
zatiOn deserves the support and en-
cOuragement of every good citizen.
The members have perfected their
organization, we believe, with the
knowledge that the field they have
entered is one prolific in material with
which to exert their energy as indi-
viduals and as an organization.

order of excellence.
The recitatiOns of the Fifth Grade in

Grades in Grammar and the second and

revelation to the auditors, and the readiness
and and accuracy Of the replies made by
the pupils to the questions propounded by
the teacher provoked loud and continu-
Gus applause, demonstrating as it did the
very thorough drill they had received dur
One Of the most interesting feature was
the Hoops Brill and march by twelve girls,
which was rendered pleasantly. The
