Partly self-sustaining.

Tuesday being the last day of the
Y. M. c. A. fiscal year, the various
officials of the organization are hard
at work on their reports, which are
expected to prove of great interest TO
the public. General Secretary Super,
in speaking of the financial situation
as applying to the Y. M. c. A., said
that although the new structure ID
much larger than the old, and ex-
penses due to the extension of the
work have been much greater, it was
not found necessary during the past
year to ask for any larger subscrip-
ton fund than the $4,000 raised annu.
ally before the new building was
erected.
This he said was due to the fact
that the revenue producing depart,
ments of the Y. NJ. c. A., such as the
dormitories, bowling alleys and other
features, had aided materially in TAX
ing care of the expenses.

The seeretary's "trip.


According to Secretary Super, It is
possible that more money will be
needed during the coming year for
the reason that the staff is to be in
creased by at least four men. The
secretary will sail on Wednesday for
an extended tour of the mainland, dur.
ing which he will visit a number of
cities, and he expects to secure the
new men during this trip, as the posi-
tions to be filled all require persons
with Association training, and no
local men are available. He expects
to secure a physical director, a man
to take charge of the physical work
for boys, and the direction Of the
boys clubs, and an assistant general
secretary, whose principal duties viii
be to promote religious activities,
such as Bible study work in the Y.
M. G. A. and the cooperation Of the
pastors Of the various churches in re-
ligtuus work for men. He also ex.
poets to secure another office man.

1t is natural for concerns seeking
new locations to get all they can but
because they "want the earth with
fence around it, ?" need not discourage
our Board of Trade. Smyrna needs
industries but it should always aim
to get one at the right terms. 1t
is a pity that members do not turn
out at the call for these special meet
ings and help discuss the pros and
cons of the situation. With our
natural advantages and facilities, some
good offer will come to US some of

1t is remarkable fact that in this
presidential year the country is facing
most unprecedented prosperity. There
is no disposition to rejoice in the mis-
fortunes of foreign rivals, or to
make capital of their adversity; yet
the fact remains that our own abun-
dance and affluence are in striking con-
trast to their economic condition.
While China mourns the devastation
of the typhoon and the destruction of
the food-supply of tens of thousands,
reports of "bumper'' crops are re-
ceived from all parts of the United
States while England beset with strike
violent political agitation and the de-
cline of financial securities, is shiver-
ing not alone because of its abnormaly
midwinter weather but from the dis
NAL economic and political outlook,
we are having long summr and
consequent abundant yield of the pro-
duce of field and garden. Malice
domestic, foreign levy" are Russia's
unenviable portion; at home there is
peace to cultivate our farms and go
about our various business and set to
the embroiled republics to the south
of US an example they refuse to fol-
low. The crops are the foundation
stone of the edifice of our prosperity.
Optimism is everywhere in evidence and
the sectional reports are in accord in
their prophecy of plenty. Enormous
wheat crop in Minnesota and Dakota,
the abundant corn and wheat and oats
of Kansas and similar crops in Idaho
tell but part of the story. The iron
and the steel industries feel the effect,
as they are bound to feel it and the
steel mills are taxed to their capacity.

British ssscientists are indicating
their belief that the long-sought
method of making synthetic rubber,
or rubber by chemistry, has really
been found, and are maintaining their
belief in spite of the doubts cast by
previously ANNOUNCED discoveries and
subsequent failures. The process of
making rubber from fusel oil was
recently announced by Prof. W. H.
Perkin, of Manchester University,
on behalf of group of CHEMISTS who
had conducted the experiments. Of
the results the conservative and
authoritative London Lancet says :
''It is probable that we are recording
aTsyntheticL Triumph of the greatest
moment to the world, for it is not a
rubber substitute that has been made,
but rubber itself, "
Not only do the British scientists
claim to be able to produce rubber for
20 scents pound while the natural
product is selling for 80 cents, but
they also announce that the by-prOd-
ucts of the process are fuel alcohol,
suitable for automobile engines, and
acetone, the incorporating element in
the manufacture of the high-power ex-
plosive known as cordite. The alcohol
can be marketed for much less than
gasoline and is a safer and cleaner
fuel. Acetone, in the limited avail
able supply, costs at present $3.50 a
ton. AS by-product of a rubber man
ufacture it is claimed that it can be
sold for $3.50 ton. Modern warfare
depends on acetone to prevent the
spontaneous explosion of cordite. =

The State Fair which closed Friday
after a successful run, and the horse /
show and the dog show which accomp- |
MED it, constituted public attraction |
which pleased a great array of pa
irons says the Wilmington Every Eve
ming. The attendance was generous
and on the 'big day., Thursday, was
enormous, testing the capacity of the
ample grounds. 1t is thus demonstra-
ed that the only thing necessary to the
success of the State Fair which the
management cannot provide by it's own
efforts is good weather. For two
years in succession stormy weather
reduced the fair to almost nothing in
the way of attendance, but this year
the fates were propititous and the re-
suit was most gratifying. These
affairs are notable institutions and the
good they do is incalulable. They
bring together the products of agricul-
ture in competition, and thus are di-
rect encouragement to this important
branch of industry; they are of i'm
mence value in the raising of fine
horses and cattle; they serve to intro
duce the latest productions in farm
machinery; they encourage excellence
in housekeeping and household arts by
pleasing exhibits with prizes as re-
wards. And they give ample oppor-
tunity for the noble sport of horse
racing. Congratulations to the State
Fair managers for their splendid
work. May they give US an even
better fair and horse show and dog
show next year.
