DEIAwARE THEN AND NOW

The Sons Of Delaware Of PhiIadel-
phia, held their annual banquet last
night, and amid quip and jest there
were many serious illusions to Della
wares place in history, and the deeds
Of her foremost sons were set forth in
glowing language. At the mention of
these names there were demonstrations
Of approval, but over the gathering
hung cloud, and there was general
admission that her honor is threatened,
and that by sinister and foreign influ-
ences she is being exploited.
One speaker made It plain that GER
tain Of our leading men, who by skill
and bravery on the battle fields of the
Rebellion, won the gratitude of their
country. have failed of that recognition
from Delawareans to which they are
entitled, and that the tendency is 10
run after false gods who represent a
doctrine utterly foreign to our soil.
During all our past, Delaware's sons
have played their part, and played 1t
well. But the present offers no hope
that our pride can continue. Instead
Of our Bayards, our Claytons and our
DuPonts, Addicks. Alice and Layton
are at the front AS mud is to mar
BILE. rs a sweet clover field Is TO a ma
larial swamp. so is Delaware's past as
compared with her present Too many
Of her citizens have developed a fond
ness for money they do not earn. In
stead Of winning their own fortunes
by industry and brains, instead OF seek
ing offices through merit, they are too
ready to accept gratuities, and become
the benehciaries of a system that is
rotten to the core.

TEAcHERs Avn scnooI

The teachers of Wilmington have
been attending school this week. In
stead Of theirusual pastime of hammer
ing sundry bits Of knowledge into the
brains of their pupils. the children
have a respite. and the teachers are
compelled to sit still for hours while
some learned purveyor of knowledge
pounds his theories into them. Thus
our children learn at a tender age that
all things have their compensations.
But the theory of teachers institutes
is sound. Education is a progressive
thing. The contact with other minds,
the instruction Of specialists broadens
the pedagogical intellect, and widene
the horizon. IL is true that many of
the theories frequently exploited are OF
questionable value, but little education
is exact. Much of what we learn has q
relative value. and can only become
useful when balanced up with Other
material and vitalized by experience.
We are certain that our teachers are
benefited by these few days of going t'
school. They learn how trying it is t
sit for hours, being compelled TO lister
TO that which may be uninteresting
They come to understand the feeling
Of the children who are not allowed t
whisper or TO move about And W
are inclined to think, too, that the pu
pills will not be injured by their fey
days Of respite.
