This popular comedian and dancer is
playing short engagement at the Park
Theater and is doing much toward
packing that place of amusement. He
is good singer and one of the best
dancers seen here in months. This
week he is TO oblige with the "Ba-

get tired hearing. For the motion pic
ture end of the program at the Park
tonight there win be 'Squedunk Sher-
Jock Holiness humorous skit on the
celebrated works by Conan Doyle, and
.sThe Absent Minded Cupid They
are funny in the extreme and will sure
" please the audience. The Melnotte
Sisters continue to do, their songs and
dances to the satisfaction of the
crowds. The threatening weather of
Saturday night did not keep the people
away from the Park for the place was
crowded from opening hour until the
closing,

last bill made big hit and this one
will be fully as good if not better

and did not take up disorder cases
under the license system, our local
option law is not working satisfac-
torily. AS matter of fact there is
no comparison between then and
now. With wide open saloons the
condition on our streets was disgust
ing and nauseating, and arrests for
drunkenness were almost an every
Saturday night occurrence. Under
local option, conditions are infinitely
better and arrests are few and far
between. Being situated on the bor-
der line of "wet" county, Smyrna
has a little more to contend with,
and to say that drunkenness is not
seen now and then would be stating
it falsely. 1t is an easy thing to
drive to Middletown and return in an
afternoon and it is easy to send away
and get it, but with all these con-
ditions, drunkenness on our streets
is rarely seen. There might be few
er cases still if our Law and Order
Society was an active instead of a
dead" organization, and because OF
the inactivity of this society is why
we have referred so frequently to the
matter. The citizens of Smyrna and
Kent County could not be induced to
go back to license system for any
thing, and the one wish among all
law abiding citizens is to see rural
New Castle cast its vote for local op-
tion at the next general elction. Such
a course will help Smyrna very ma
terially. Notwithstanding we as a
border town have much to contend
with, the reports of Alderman Crow
for fines and arrests show Is per
cent decrease over conditions under
a license system.

Dover Town Council is having
fight with the Telephone and Tele-
graph Companies to have wires run
underground instead of on poles.
Despite the fact that the time is ripe
in the case of Dover, it would have
been an excellent move for all towns
to have required the underground
system. If Smyrna had adopted it
in both its electric light and tele-
phone wires, maybe our shade trees
would have been conserved. The
unrelentless topping and cutting of
our shade trees since a pole line was
constructed along our streets, has in
a, large measure marred Smyrna s
only claim for beauty-that of its
beautiful shade trees. 1t would
have been a good thing for Smyrna
Town Council to have demanded the
same thing Dover has done before
laying Main street and macadamiz-
ing Commerce, Mt. Vernon, South
and Delaware streets. The under
ground system of running wires is a
growing sentiment in all progressive
cities and towns and Delaware might
as we'll be in the progressive class
with this respect, as other states.

established and identified with Smyr-

cal opinion of all Smyrna business
men that there was never a greater
need to keep this old freight line

it should take the complete equip

BY story on our first page it will

.ception about the purpose and effect
of local option and its exact legal
status says the Sussex ReDubli-
can, Georgetown. "The right to
regulate the traffic is within the pow
ers of a State, because it affects the
peace and good order of the State so
that all legal provisions to regulate
CT prohibit the manufacture or sale
of intoxicating liquors, by local op-
tion or otherwise is based upon the
authority of the State to preserve
good order by preventing disorder.
So that the intent and purpose of the
law, is not to prevent the personal
use of it but to prevent the abuse of
it which leads to disorder. The abuse
of it has grown out of the fact that
it has become an article of barter or
sale which yields an immense profit,
and the vendors, wholesale and retail
have gone TO every length to increase
its consumption and thereby increase
their sales and propOrtionate i'm
mense profits. The sale closes these
public dispensaries of the stuff and
thus prevents the abuse and conse-
quent disorder, because it makes it
less plentiful and harder to get.
eff anyone for moment believes
that local option or closing the sa-
looms will destroy the appetite of
the topper for liquor which has been
acquired in years of use, he is mis-
taken. or if he thinks that such a
law will prevent the man who has
become a slave, from getting it, if
he is determined to do so, he is
again mistaken. AS long as it is
manufactured and is obtainable, it:
poor victim will manage somehow tt
get it.
"But no-license removes the temp
tation from the man who has used i

Teaching Girls to Ride Horses,

Almost all the little girls who are
taught to ride horses these days are
put on cross saddles. They may or
may not ride astride when they get
bigger, but they all learn that way.
1t is safer position in the first place
and it gives confidence never acquired
by youngster in a side saddle. AS a
rule the small equestrienne is clad in
boomers and the briefest of skirts.
Often she discards the skirt when the
lessons are given in the country. The
instructor holds her pony by a lead
ing strap and, of course, he rides a
horse easily able to overtake her
mount in the event of bolt. Only
for the first few lessons is the child's
belt buckled to the pommel of her
saddle. Until she acquires firm
seat she is kept close enough to the
instructor to be caught by him if she
starts to fall.

it? If the bank fails the depositors are
ruined.-N. Y. Press.
