OLD ENGINEER
MISSES ENGINE
Forced to Retire, Chester
Man Longs to Return to
Beloved Locomotive

After serving for thirty years as an
engineer on the p, B. and w. Rail-
road, William NJ. Ford is lying critic
ally i'll at his home in Chester. and
those who visit the old man insist that
he is dying Of a broken heart; that he
longs for his engine and thinks OF
nothing else during his wakeful mo-
ments.
Whenever Ford hears the whistle of
a locomotive he arouses himself to a
sitting posture bends his head atten-
lively and whispers. "If only had her
back I believe 1 would get we'll quick.
She was a good old machine, and she
was all my own"
Ford is referring TO the machine he
used to drive over the lines of the F..
b. and w. when he talks like that.
About six months ago the engineer
was hale and hearty, but the members
Of his family persuaded him to give up
railroading; he had never had a serious
accident during all the years he was
on the road and had never killed a
human being. But he was getting old.
they told him, and ought to quit work
and rest the remainder of his days.
Ford reluctantly consented, but he
Immediately began TO pine for his en-
gine. In a short time after his re-
tirement Ford showed marked
change in his condition, and has gradu~
ally been getting worse.

CAMP MEETINGS
ARE CONDEMNED

That camp-meetings are putting
negro churches out Of business and
making preaching Improbable among
the colored pastors of Delaware and
Maryland was the report made to the
Philadelphia District Conference of the
African NJ. f. Zion Church. The re-
port came in the form OF the annual
address Of the Presiding Elder, Rev.
DR.. II. H. Curry.
There are a certain class Of these
people who conduct the meetings, and
during the summer months the church
doors are closed and all of the church
people take to the woods and the pas
tors are left without any support, he
said. The result is that the people
are not caring for preaching, but sim
ply want to shout and sing all the sum-
meT. When these meetings are over
the people return to the churches to
keep out of the frost and snow, but
they have given allstheir money to the
camp-meeting singers and have nothing
to give the preachers. with the further
result that the churches are stranded
/ in many cases"
While Presiding Elder Curry praised
most of the Philadelphia churches
which are under his care, he took Oc-
casion to severely criticize one consre-
CATION, saying that its members shout
ed and sang to SO much that they did
not take time TO organize the young
people. There is such a thing as pray
ing too much. and the people of that
church certainly do pray" he remarked
In the evening Mrs. r. A. Morrisy
president and Mrs. Blackwell. cores
! ponding secretary Of the local woman's
! Home and Foreign Missionary Society
had charge Of the meeting.
This morning reports were heard
Il from committees. This afternoons ses-
1 sion viii be closed. A preaching SER

CROWN PRINCE
VICTIM OF PLOT
Belief, However, That King
Peter Will Accept ReSie-
nation Of Ills Son
By United Press Leased specisl wire


BELGRADE. March 2s.-The belief
is practically universal in Belgrade to-
day that King Peter viii accept the
resignation OF his son, Crown Prince
George now that the cabinet has de-
cided that Premier Novakovitch has no
authority 10 consider the crown princes
letter Of resignation. There Is a story
current that the cabinet advised the
king not 10 accept the resignation, but
this Is discredited, as Il is known that
the king has long sought some way Of
getting his degenerate son out Of Ma
tional politics.
The leaders OF the war party de-
clare that the crown prince is the
victim OF plot, the purpose Of which
Is 70 strengthen the position Of those
who are clamoring for peace. Threats
OF deposing the king and even hints
that his life is in danger are being
spread broadcast. The bitterness OF
the war party is so great that Alex
ander the kings second son. has de-
clared that he will not accept the sue
censorship.
The situation is so serious that the
government is calling in troops from
the frontier TO guard the capital
against rioting. The crown prince is
still in the city.
The story OF the crown princes fatal
assault on his valet Is stir in an in
definite form, but is undoubtedly true.
The young mans friends are charging
that the story was concocted merely
TO furnish an excuse 10 force his re-
tirement.

YOUNG MEMS HAIR
STRONG REASONS WHY IT
SHOULD BE CAREFULLY
CARED EOR.

Badness among young men Is get
ting TO be a serious industrial prob
lem.
In these days Of keen competition
when soulless. grasping corporations
are demanding and getting the best
most vigorous and energetic men in
the country, it is a well known fact
that young men have the preference
and that many corporations have made
it a rule 10 retire employees at As and
so years of age. and TO replace them
with younger and seemingly more Wig
orous men.
The baldheaded man at 80 nowadays
will have just as hard a time finding
a desirable job as the man of 90 with
luxuriant hair.
For this reason alone. every man
who cares anything for those dependent
upon him should take care of his hair
Don't become bald or gray and old
looking at 35, or 40, or 80. Take care
OF your hair and you can better take
care of your Job.
II you have dandrun, look out. Your
scalp is fun Of little germs, digging
night and day into the roots Of the
hair, and destroying that vitality with
out which healthy hair is impossible.
Perhaps you will be glad to know
that Miller Drug Co. has a guarantee
cure for dandruff called Partisan Sage.
that will remove every trace Of dand-
ruff i'm two weeks or you can have
your money hack.
That's a pretty fair Offer isn't it2
But let them so further and say that
Partisan Sage is also guaranteed TO
stop falling hair itching of the scalp,
and ~ grow hair II the hair root be
not dead
Aud the ladies OF Wilmington ought
10 know that a large percentage of the
beautiful women of America arc using
Partisan Sage. because it is the most
delightful. refreshing and invigorating
hair dressing made. II will quickly
turn dun. lusterless and iifeless hair
into luxuriant. soft and beautiful hair
The price is 80 cents a bottle from
Miller Drug Co. or by express, all
charges prepaid, from the sole maxi
ers in America, the Giroux Mfg. Co,
Buffalo. n Y. People who live in WIZ
