Judge Grubb, in his paper on the old
Naaman's Creek school, in Bmndywine
hundred, which We print in this issue.
imparis some interesting and valuable
information about the old schoolhouses
of Delaware. Tho claim he advances
for this school, that il is "the oldest
school building now standing in Delaware
which has been in continuous use as a
schoolhouse under our State free school
system, inaugurated in 1929, is doubt
less correct If any person has informa-
tion to the contrary, or any other inior-
nation about our old school buildings
that may be Of public interest, Every
Evening will be pleased to make their
knowledge public.

1t Was a psIlhernte Crime.

At Lake Placid, n. Y, last Sunday
afternoon, a woman who was seated at an
organ playing hymns was shot and fatally
wounded by a boarder who "playfully"
snapped a pistol at her OF course he
''did not know it was loaded, " and evil

simply picked up the deadly weapon and
blazed away, regardless of consequences.
And the authorities Of the place, accord
ing to the published accounts of the sad
affair "are convinced that the shooting
was accidental and no arrests have been
madep
Here is where the authorities make
great mistake. This reckless shooter.
even if there is no special statute of New
York State which makes his act a serious
misdemeanor, should be prosecuted under
the general statutes for the crime Of man
slaughter. For surely, after all the
many warnings that have been given in
every section OF the civilized world IL
must now be regarded as deliberate
crime for anyone to take up a gun or
pistol, even with positive knowledge,
much less a nebulous supposition, that
It is unloaded, and point il at another.
The moral effect Of this criminally foolish
and absolutely indeiensible action Is
always bad, no matter whether attended
by serious results or by a fortunate
absence Of casualty.
The State Of Delaware has a special
statute which makes IL a misdemeanor.

for person 10 deliberately point gun
or pistol at another. This law should
be adopted by every State in the Union.
The imam who points the gun" or pistol
should be included In the category of the
''fool who rocks the boat" and each
should receive the stern penalty of inn
prisonment when fatal results attend an
indulgence in their deadly pleasantries
Too long have their fatal follies been
condoned Every community in the
country should suppress all false SYM
pathies for them, and turn them over to
the law whenever they offend.

The statement Of a Washington dis

pect Of his nomination for the Presidency
in 1905 is furnishing President Roose-
welt and other Republican leaders with
food for thought" incites the New York

These, or similar, reflections are i'm
