A WORD ABOUT GEORGETOWN.

n Id SUSSEX, or at least Georgetown, again
~ comes to the front in pleasing manner. A
despatch from the ancient county seat says that
the benevolent society of that town has made a
canvass and finds in the entire town not a
family in want; not family but will have a
good Christmas dinner. Even the humblest ac-
cording to the despatch, have something slowed
away FOR Christmas day. 1t may not be turkey
or irince pies or fruit cake or other things di-
ees.ible or indigestbe, but the Georgetown
society knows that there is at least little hog and
hominy about and that no one is without food.
No doubt the same can be said of other towns
in the lower counties.
They have these benevolent societies in George
town and in other Delaware towns We hear
little of them. They make no parade of their
deeds. The societies are composed of good
and noble hearted women, quick to hear the call
OF misfortune and Distress alert to relieve it. The
great good they do in quiet way rarely sees the
light
But what a compliment to Georgetown is en-
bodied in that brief message In the cities men
have been out of work and have been suffering
for the necessities of life There has been no
such condition in Georgetown. The crops have
been good and any man fit 20 work during the year
has been able to get something to do. He is
thriftless or indoent who cannot find work in one
Of the country towns or on the farm.
1t may be said that it doesn't cost much to live
in Georgetown. One expert on hogs iowl and
tuinip greens once said that a man could get
along comfortably in Georgetown on hundred

SUPPORT OF HOSPITALS.

a 7 the dedication Of the new pavilion to the
4 Presbyterian Hospital OF Chicago the other
day the president of the institution and another
speaker, DIR. Billings, one of the leading phys-
clans of the city, referred TO the progress that
has been made in "humanzing" hospital methods
Some months ago Miss Jane Addams the noted
settlement worker of Chicago, whose labors are
known throughout the country, pleaded for fur
ther 'humanizing" of the hospitals She pointed
out illustrations of red tape; of Indifference on
the part of nurses; of lack of consideration and
gentleness in seemingly trivial matters that are
really OF great importance to the sick and the con-
valescing
No doubt instances of such treatment are fire.
quent in the hospitals, especially in those of the
larger cities. Only recently in Philadelphia the
red tape methods of certain hospitals were eX-
posed and public opinion was so much aroused
that the hospitals were forced to abandon their
Objectionable methods. IL is fair TO say, however
that sem-potical control of these Philadelphia
hospitals was responsible for the absolute cruelty
which in some instances. was practiced
The hospitals on the whole, however, have been
much improved. Not so many years ago the
friends Of sick or an injured person thought Of
the hospital only as a last resort-a thing to be
avoided i possible
Now an this has changed The occupation Of
a trained nurse holds a high place Better and
newer methods being applied to hospitals
and the treatment and care secured in them is
often OF the very highest They are being used
more and more, not only by persons Of small
financial resources, but also by those Of the well

DR. Billings in his address asserted that If rich
people really knew the good work done by the
hospitals such institutions would receive more
liberal pecuniarv support OF course the effec-
tive work done by a hospital depends upon the
means at its command, and money is Just as
necessary for the conduct of hospital-as II is
for any business. State appropriations OF public
funds are made for the hospitals. and the public

"PIoase Don't Forget Me, Santa cIsusI"

"PIease Don't Forget Me, Santa clausl"
Atlanta Georgian.
If we could put our ears to the hum
bic fresides OF the world tonight this
is the prayer whose accents we would
catch--like the musical patter OF little
feet, treading the mystic highway:
Please don't forget me, Santa Claus!"
Christmas is still some distance off.
But the preparations have commenced.
The shop windows are all aglow with
beautiful things. The letters to Santa
Claus are Fastening up the chimney
hues. The mistletoe is glistening on
the frosty air; and the pines and the
hollies are nodding on the hills.
| The years may have plowed deep
burrows since we older children listened
for the tinlSling of the sleighbells; but
the memories Of Christmas days still
haunt us like lingering strains of
music-like flowers which will not
wither.
The cares Of buslness-the worries OF
work-the heartaches and the vexations
OF life-all vanish into thin air when re-
collection takes us back TO the old De-
cember days; and. in the shadow of the
old Fireplace hangs the stocking which
mother darned--for Santa Claus to fill!
We are planning 70 make the Christ
mas holidays a season OF unwonted
merriment for the little tots at home.
But let us not forget the pale-faced
children of the poor-the children for
whom no Christmas trees will burn
unless We light the tapers-the chill
dren OF want and hunger and destitu-
ton. whose breakfast is sometimes only
a crust and whose supper a crumb--
the children OF orphanage, many OF
whom perchnnce have been gathered
into institutions OF charity to partake
of better things, but whose wants still
call for much which we can give them
--the children who, at humble bedsdes
and with tear-nlled eyes. all over our
land, are lifting up the prayer in
broken sobs:
please don't forget me. Santa Clausl
Christmas is the day Of days in
childhoods calendar. It belongs not
only to the children of the rich, but
to the children of the poor; for the
Holy Child who gave II to the world
was born in the manger-cradle Of
the inn at Bethlehem.
Then let us loosen the strings of
our money bags.
Let us give of our increase to the.
worthy charities which are pleading at
this Christmas time for help; and in
pouring the oil Of gladness into hungry
hearts, we will start the wells to gush-
ing in our own.
Let us multiply the joys OF this
Christmas season in our own homes and
about our own fire-sldes by answering
the prayer of the little tot; and let
us say in effect TO the motherless
brood wherever they may lneel:
Santa Claus will not forget you.
He loves the children Of the rich. But
he will not forget the children of the
poor; because he loves them, tooi"

EXPECT RUSH OF IMMIGRANTS.

a CCORDlNG to recent reports Ellis Island is
preparing for the return of many aliens who
left this country for their old homes when the

influx of home seekers from foreign lands. Ev-

bureau the number of immigrants fell off more
than 10000 during October Not so long ago

During a period Of six months, according to an
estimate the departures from New York exceeded
the arrivals by more than 100000.
Every kind of preparation is now being made

the old countries. And when the rush begins 1t
is expected to be greater than ever before Sleep
ing quarters have been provided for 1900 immi-
grants instead OF 1000. The hospital quarters
