COLLEGE NOTES

The Athletic Association OF Della

ing, in the College Gymnasium. This
dance was even greater success than
the first dance. There were thirty
two couples on the floor. Music was

Owing to the cancellation by Leb-
anon Valley last week there was no
football game at the College Saturday
Hopes were high Of getting game
elsewhere aud coach MacAvoy and
Acting Manager Tammany tried, up
to the last minute, to get one but
were unable. A game was secured
with the strong Ursinus team, how
ever, for Thanksgiving Day. at Ursi-
nus.
Basketball has begun to be in evi-
dence at the college. There are many
new candidates for the team. Regu-
lar practice will commence directly

Beneath November skies, AZ years

assembled on a spot which was sac
red one. Only four months before it
had resounded to the sound of shot

the wounded and the dead The occa-

Above this crowd of wounded sol

something worthy of the attention of
those who were making history. A
sense of his own helDlcssness over

AS the silvery tones OF Everett's

sketch OF the progress made since the
beginning OF our Republic. --Ed.)
Much has been said during the pas,
lew weeks about higher education for
Delaware's girls. At this stage OF our
history plea for the importance OF
the subject seems an insult to the spirit
OF the times--but the fact that such
an institution is ONLY UNDER
CONSIDERATION forces us to meet
the shameful truth that such plea is
necessary.
The place woman has taken in the
worlds civilization, in spite of her
opportunities, has been an important
one.
In the remote long ago maternal
society existed, and for period of far
greater length than that which has
succeeded, descent was reckoned on
the side OF the mother, and her child
rer took hei name and were counted
as oi 1er family.
a reading OF the history Of these
times convinces us that woman had
an 'ihportant part in the process Of
human development called civilization.
The intimate association OF mother
and child, which SO largely determines
the after lie, as a result O. the inti-
nation and suggestion which forms a
part OF these susceptible years, must
ever be considered in our reckoning.
Then. too, the women were the first
teachers OF language. and of the science
that had then developed, which was
usually impaired by legend or myth.
The knowledge Of animals and tiliage
OF the soil which they gave to their
young prepared the way for the aRri-
cultural and pastoral pursuits OF a
later day
George Willis Cooke tells us the
position OF wife and mother in MANY
countries under this rule, as regards
property, reverence on the part of her
children, and love on the part O, her
husband, has been rarely equalled even
IN modern times in any country. and

The 10Th quadremical Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal church,
South, met at Asheville on Wednes-
day of last week. There are 1926 del
egates, lay and clerical, and six Bish-
ops in attendance besides many visit
ors. 1t will take about three weeks
for the conference to get through
with it's deliberations. There are
five new bishops to be elected and it
is pretty certain DR.. J. C. Kilgo, pres
ident of Trinity College, will be one
of them. We shall regret to see him
leave Trinity College. Touching on
the growth and strength of the
church Bishop Hendrick said that
the Methodist denomination now
numbers 2,O00,0O souls, the second
largest Protestant church in the
world. He gave their gains in the
last four years as 207, 754. There
are at present over 1000 travelling
and 1000 local ministers in active
service. The church property now
owned is worth SIS, 100000. -Four
million was spent for churches and
parsonages during the last year.

We have advocated for years the
putting up of signboards at all the
forks and cross roads. Any one trav-
cling over the country to any great
extent can readily see the necessity
for these sign-boards. We hope the
next legislature will consider the
matter and give the State a law COM
polling the county commissioners of
each county to mark our roads. South
Carolina has a law which says
each road overseer within his dis
trict may erect and keep up, at the
expense of the county, at the forks
and cross roads, a post and guide
board, or fnger-board, containing an
inscription in legible letters direct
ing the way and distance to the town
or towns or public place or places
situated on each road respectively"

tried and convicted of gambling in
that city
Five months on the county roads
or fine of 500. In case the defen-
dant accepted the fine there was a
condition that he put up bond of
$500, same to be forfeited should he
enter pool room, gambling room
or fail to enter into some reputable
line of work Immediately. The con-
dition also stated that he must take
up his residence at home and attend
the Presbyterian Sunday school every
Sunday and services at least once
each Sunday, and during week days
he should be at home by 9 o'clock at
night. From this sentence the de-
PENDANT filed a motion of appeal to
the Superior court and his bond was
fixed at $3.50. 1t was given prompt
