Good Service of the
Wilmington Library

On November l the Wilmington In
stitute Free Library will put into op-
Grafton new rules relating to the borrow
ing of books. The principal changes are
as follows:
The date stamped on the book will be
the date the book is due and not the date
it was borrowed. This date will show at
glance just when book is due and
borrowers need not compute the date as
has been the case heretofore.
All books, with the exception of ju-
venile. books. heretofore charged for two
weeks. will be charged for four weeks,
and no renewals will be allowed on fiction.
| Books other than fiction can be renewed
provided they are not wanted by other
readers.
About $50 books have been placed in
the Peoples Settlement and on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays an attendant
from the library will take charge of this
collection.
The library is also about to send 100
books TO the colored settlement at Eighth
and Buttonwood streets, Wilmington,
where they viii be in charge of Miss
Davis, the deaconess of the settlement.
ANY parents or teachers who are in
terested in the children S reading are
invited TO confer with the Juvenile De
partment of the Wilmington Institute
Free Library with regard to lists of books
on special subjects. The library will bt
glad to outline courses of reading fol
boys and girls to supplement their sehoo
work or to suggest books for pleasur,
reading.

WHEN 'MERRY FRIENDLY
COUNTRY-FOLkS HAUD
THEIR RHOLLOWE'EN''

I Bobbing for apples is prank that
has been popular with Scotch children,
and even older lads and lassies for gen.
erations. American children usually love
it, too. and have even known grown-ups
to extract a good deal of enjoyment from
this innocent diversion. As nearly every
body knows, the apples are put IN tub
or large dish-pan of water. and the trick
is to take them out with the teeth, which
! is not nearly so easy as it sounds.
Another stunt which affords much
amusement but is unfortunately nearly
! as mussv as Bobbing for Apples, is
to make cake of flour by packing it
closely in pan and then pressing into
the center a bright dime. The cake of
-four is then carefully turned out on
platte2 and each guest must take a
knife and cut a slice. The one whose
slice contains the dime ia obliged to take
/ it out with his teeth.
/ Dropping melted lead into cold water
and telling fortunes by the shapes it as
sumes is an old test of Haiowe EN-, but
/ the custom prevalent in Russia to-day
/ of using melted lard for this purpose Is
most certainly much more convenient and
undoubtedly just as potent as the lard
takes shapes fantastic enough to please
any oracle.
The test of the ring and the glass does
not seem to be as widely known as it de-
serves, for it is very pretty and senti-
mentally mysterious. For this you will
require a wedding ring and glass half
full of water. The girl-this can only he
done by a girl-who wishes to consult
the fateS pulls a hair from her head
and ties one end of it carefully to the
wedding ring. Then grasping the other
end Of the hair between finger and thumb
she holds il at arm 5 length so that the
ring hangs suspended in the center of
the glass. at least an inch above the
water. She must stand with her arm
stretched out until the ring begins to
swing against the side of the glass. Ting.
Ting, ting. 80 No it is going to be two.
Perhaps the provoking little circle of
gold seems possessed to ring out long
tale of wears of weary waiting or worse
still perhaps it absolutely refuses to ring
ri all.
Frail little boats are made of paper
and each one named for some favored
friend or suitor. They are then blown
hither and thither on the surface of &
big bowl of water and the one that tloats
the longest will be- the successful lover
or letters are cut from the headlines
in a newspaper and thrown into bow
of water and they will form mystic let
tiers and sentences that can be conStrue,
according to the Imagination of the for
tune teller.

Quotations

''The first. last, and closest trial
question to any living creature is, What
do you like?'-and the entire object of
true education is to make people not
merely do the right things, but enjoy
right things.
Love is not getting. but giving; not
wild dream of pleasure and madness
of desire-oh. no. love is not that-it
is goodness and honor, and peace and
pure living
'When | am very weary

PEACHESAND SPUDSF
GET POOR PRICES
SPUD MARKET
IN POOR SHAPE

While the potato market in the
east is about as bad as il has ever
been, the local spuds are topping the
market wherever they are shown.
The Fruita product is said to be the
best the valley has ever seen. and
probably 100 cars will be shipped
out of the valley through the Grand
Junction Fruit Growers association
during the season.
Heavy production in the Kaw river
valley in Kansas and in the potato
sections of Colorado is credited with
the low prices.
Samples of what growers claim is
an average potato from their fields
are being shown at the local associa-
ton, and they are about as perfect
for commercial purposes as could be
imagined.
California potatoes are now being
quoted at 60c, while the association
Is paying the growers here 75c net

UTE INDIANS
At SHAN K|VE
SenIinel Special Serviee.


Colorado Springs, Colo, Aug. o
Seventy-five Ute Indians in full re-
gala, will solemnly conduct the GER
emonies of marking the old Ute trail
above Manitou Springs. The ceremo-
ny will take place August 20 at the
time of the Pixies Peak summer car
nival and Indian Shan Kive.
When the white men first came
to the foot of 1.-THE Great White
Mountains" early in the nineteenth
century they found trail into the
mountains so well worn that parts of
it remain even to this day. 1t must
have taken centuries of treading by
soft moccasined feet and hoofs of
ponies to have made SO deep a mark
The trail left the canon of Fountain
creek about three miles above Mani
tou, and wound down the mountain
side into RuXton creek. at point
Just below the Iron Springs. This is
the portion of the trail that is to
be marked, by white marble blocks
which have been provided by pion-
eer citizens of Colorado
This great band of Utes, which is
coming from lgnacia, is the largest
that ever has had permission to leave
the government reservations. Be
sides accompanying the pioneers, the
Indians will also conduct their cere-
monial rites at the Springs, which
their ancestors held sacred. and will
dance amid the red rocks of the
Garden of the Gods. A more modern
feature of their visit will be the
bringing of a baseball team to meet
white mems clubs in their common
national game.
Shan Kive" is the Indian word for
fete or carnival. II is pronounced
shawn Keedie." As it is the pur-
pose to feature the life of the Utes.
their ceremonies and dances, it has
been adopted as the name for the
annual Pixies Peak region summer
carnival.

PEACH PRICES
PICKING UP

The market on peaches has improv-
ed slightly during the past week with
the decline of the southern stock. The
grade was not high. but the Georgia
and Texas shipments on eastern mar
kets was unusually strong. The on
ly demand apparent from the eastern
representative of the local association
is for high grade stock.
The early peaches now being placed
on the market from this valley are
of better grade than usual and are
being we'll received. As usual the
Grand valley stock is topping the
market, although at the present time
this is not a very profitable price for
the grower. 1t is expected that the
best fruit from this section can be
marketed at fair profit as soon as
as the later varieties come in.
Elberta peaches will be ready for
shipment by August %. The crop is
not only heavy. but unusually fine.
The drop has been unusually large,
but defective fruit has been about
all that has dropped off so that the
pick will be very clean and of the
best grade.
Manager Fletcher of the fruit
growers association has orders for a
carload of Elberta peaches for Eng
land. and he expects to open up a
profitable market in the British isles
for local fruit. Grand valley fruit
mas now invaded Germany. South
America, Canada, Mexico and Aus
tralia. South America has received
considerable amount of Grand val
ley pears, and the annual shipments
to Brazil and other southern cities
will be increasingly large from year
to year, IL is believed
