PROPOSES new
LAW FOR AUTOS
Representative Evans FaVOrS
Graded License, Based on
Horsepower Of Machines

Special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER. Del. Feb Representa-
tive Evans gave notice to the House
yesterday afternoon that he will in
troduce a bill to amend the general
automobile laws Of Delaware The
bill has not been drawn as yet but
Mr.. Evans idea is TO provide for a
State tax on automobiles according
to their horsepower.
Mr. Evans is looking up the laws of
different States, and the plan, TO
which he inclines is TO divide auto
mobiles into different classes like
twenty horse power, thirty horse pow
er, forty horse power, ETC., and TO tax
each class according to it's horse
power. Mr.. Evans thinks the small
powered automobile should not be re-
! quired to pay as much license as a
higher-powered machine. He does
not wish the highest powered automo.
miles TO pay any more State license
than at present. and he does not advo.
cate any change I'm the speed laws OF
other regulations.
His bill will require automobile IL
cense fees TO be spent on public road
improvements.

TEACH FARMING
In The SCHOOLS
GrangerS in Sussex County
Plan System for Agri-
cultural Education

GEORGETOWN, Del, Feb. S.-The
education of the young men from the
farms of Sussex county in scientific
agriculture is the aim of a movement
that has been started I'm the county
grange and which is being backed by
Georgetown and Milford grangers.
Sussex county is pre-eminently an
agricultural section and two-thirds Of
its population are directly interested
In farming.
At present, farm boy must attend
the State College of Agriculture at
some cost and loss OF time to himself.
BY the plan, now being advocated. the
district school would supply that
knowledge by the aid Of State legis-
lation. Under the plan being advo-
Gated, five country district schools are
to be placed in one section, with 4
teacher to each section. One day
each week will be devoted to each OF
the five schools by this teacher. SC
that each Of the five schools will get
a day Of agricultural instruction.
In this way the expense would be
divided among five school districts,
making a very small outlay for the
education Of the youths Of FIVE dis
tricts. Should the districts show a
Willingness to cooperate in this plan,
a bill will be introduced in the Leg
islature this winter under the back

GEORGETOWN, Del, Feb. S-Judge
Boyce succeeded in reconciling Isaac
H. Morgan and Lille V. Morgan. OF
Blades, in an affecting court scene
during the trial of a divorce suit. Mr..
and Mrs. Morgan had been separated
for three years.
The reconciliation came at one Of
the hardest points in the battle, which
was waged all afternoon. The di-
vorce was asked on the grounds OF
desertion, and Morgan asserted that
his wife had left him after 19 years
of married life after many scenes and
battles in which Mrs. Morgan said she
was often beaten.
It was just as the defense had start
ed its case when Judge Boyce sudden
ly asked Mrs Morgan: "Will you
go back and live with your husband
and try to live right?" Mrs. Morgan
said she would, and then the man was
called. Judge Boyce gave them a
lecture. Both agreed to live together
and walked from the court room, arm
