How often do you
eat this food?

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS a matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come to us for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because it
represents tothem perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
illness and purity, of all oatmeals.
1t is packed in regular size pack
ages, and in Theoretically sealed tins
for hot climates. IS

COURT HOUSE
ADDITION TALK
MeSSrS. Chandler and Dennl-
son Mix Up Over Plan
to be Followed

For a time yesterday afternoon
Levy Court Commissioner Samuel j.
Dennison and County Comptroller
Philemma Chandler locked horns I'm
debate over the question of enlarging
the county court house. Mr.. Chand-
Ter has been in favor OF extending the
building towards King street and Mr.
Dennison, who is chairman of public
buildings committee, favored side ad-
ditiOns
The judges Of the county court have
complained Of cramped quarters, the
county comptroller has only a box of
an office to work in, the recorder OF
deeds and receiver of taxes need more
room and the county engineer wants
an office, while th- State highway
commissioner occupies an Office out
side the Court House.
At the meeting of the Levy Court
yesterday afternoon Mr.. Dennison
said he favored a new building along
Eleventh street. He read q letter
from Theopolis Chandler. the archi-
tect who drafted the present court
house. in which the architect declar-
ed that the looks Of the present
building would be ruined by either
addition. He said that the addition
to the back of the building would
cost less than any other addition and
that it might be the more satisfactory
Of either Of the two plans to add TO
the building. He pointed out, how
ever. that an addition I'm the rear
would never look right owing to the
fact that It would be too high from
King street. owing to the grade Of the
building. He was of the opinion that
the appearance Of the Court House
would be damaged by the addition Of
wings.
Mr. Chandler, Mr.. Perkins and Mr..
Elliott spoke at length on the question
but no action was taken by the court
The Levy Court In the budget ap-
propriated 100000 for the improve
ments. II is possible that no action
will be taken until next fall.

Thursday

~ Through a combination of dates
Brandywine Springs Park is going to
have an unusually varied and elaboT-
ate series of celebrations tomorrow
There will be a quartet of events and
each is calculated to attract a large
number of people. The result will
be, if the weather is fair, a record
breaking crowd.
The big event will be Butchers
Day and the local Butchers Associa-
tion will follow the program already
announced and will have as their
guests the members of the Chester
Association who will arrive here on
a special train over the Baltimore a.
Ohio Railroad. The day is also Chill
dren's Day and this fact is good for
an attendance of somewhere between
5000 and 5000 little people for their
interests will be looked after as
usual. There will also be Reunion
of the Fourth Delaware Regiment
Association at which Senator II. A.
DUPONT is expected to be one Of the

RAIN HOLDS BACK
THE OPERA MARTHA

There is suspicion about Brandy
wine Springs Park that the weather
man is not lover of the opera
martha" for several times its pre-
sentation by the Aeolian Opera Com-
pany has been prevented by rain. The
public likes the opera however, and
IL is q matter for regret that the
best opera OF the present season
should so many times be interfered
with by rain. There vii be still sew
eral opportunities for the public to
see this attraction, however, for it
will be continued each evening this
week and on Thursday and Saturday
afternoons.
The new people who are TO aug
ment the company for the produc~
ton OF Carmen" and 'Mikado" Will
arrive shortly and begin rehearsals-
These operas Will be given with
every attention TO detail and will take
much longer in performance than the
ones previously given.
