TO AGAIN URGE
CANAL PURCHASE

Purchase Of the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal by the government
and its deepening and widening into
ship canal. will be the important
topic at this years convention Of the
Atlantic Deeper Waterways Associa-
ton, to be held in New London, Conn,
September 4, and 6. The Whining
ton Board of Trade, who we're initial
in launching the deeper waterways
movement. will send a large delega-
ton. The Association feels that this
is an especially auspicious time TO
urge the canal purchase, as after the
completion of the Panama Canal, the
government will have on its hands
the most modern machinery for i'm
proving the Chesapeake and Della
ware waterway. The purchase price
Of the canal is placed at two millions,
and the cost of the improvements is
estimated at eighteen millions.

State Bacteriologist Watson under
whose supervision the water supplies
in several towns Of the state have
been examined, makes a report in
the bulletin Of the meteorological
Department just issued after a lapse
Of nine years.
The report Of the water inspection
is as follows. THE water supplies OF
the following towns have been thor
oughly examined chemically and bac-
teriologically' Dover, Newark, Lewes,
Seaford, Wyoming and also the Wy
oming ice supply. In all these SUP
plies, the waters were excellent and
70 be recommended in the respective

towns Will be visited and the water
supply examined and recorded"
TIE bulletin gives a set Of instruc-
tions relative to the shipment Of
specimens for examination Of rabies
TO the state laboratory and under
the caption "Fasteur Treatment in
Delaware" the article continues.
"The spread of rabies throughout
the state of Delaware is gradually
increasingi Twenty-one persons were
treated through the State Board OF
Health laboratory during the year
1911. We do not know the number
sent 70 other institutions for pasteur
treatment but the number treated AT
our own laboratory shows a marked
increase over previous years.
Muzzling and high dog tax have re-
duced rabies in many countries, es-
peel lily in Europe. Something must
be done In Delaware to prevent this
extra expense and mental strain by
being bitten with a worthless cur.

STATE S. S. CONVENTION.
Preparations Being Made to Entertain
1t in Barre.

The annual Vermont Sunday school
convention, to be held in Barre, October
1926, promises to he the greatest con.
vention in the history of this organiza-
tion. Extensive preparations are being
made by the citizens of Barre for the
entertainment of the hundreds of dele
gates who will be present.
Sunday schools are no longer com.
posed of few women and children. but
have enrolled now the most live and ag-
gressive men to be found in the towns
and cities.
An attractive feature of the coming
convention will be the presence of W. G..
Pearee. who has probably done more
toward creating and organizing adult
Bible classes than any other man in the
world. He is to attend the state con
vention of Massachusetts,, Maine and
New Hampshire, coming to Vermont
from the latter place. Mr.. Pearce will
be of inestimable help to all Sunday
school workers who are striving to build
up the adult department of the Sunday
school.
Besides having conferences with the
presidents of the county and district
associations, Mr.. Pearce will address the
convention on many subjects, among
others, the following: THE Bible Class
at Service" Approved Workmen, How
Secured Extensive preparations are
being made to provide excellent music
for all the services.

Berlin Bourse Shows Fear of War by
Drop in Prices

Berlin, Oct. l0.--A general war in the
Balkans has been practically inaugu-
rated in the opinion of both diplomatic
circles and the press in Germany.
One of the leading Berlin banks re-
ceiyed telegram yesterday from Bel
grade stating that the declaration of
war by Servia would probably be deliy-
cred Immediately. Servian troops it
was stated were being rushed by forced
marches toward the frontier from the
mobilization centers.
Another telegram from Belgrade
states that the reply of the Servian pre-
mier, NJ. Pasitch, to the Austro- Russian
representations was tantamount to a
rejection. He declared that the Monte
negrin declaration Of war had created a
new situation which was decisive for
Servia's further action
The solidarity OF the Balkan allies
would, he said, be maintained at all
costs and popular feeling in Servia was
so strong that it would not permit the
government to depart from the course in
which it had embarked.
There was almost repitition of the
scenes which took place on BLACK Tues
day" October ~, on the Bourse yes
terday under the conviction that a gen
nral war in the Balkans was inevitable.
There was an all round fall of from two
to eight points and the slump was
checked only slightly just before the
close.
