Rumor has it, the delay in getting
to work on the Federal Building is
that there is some probability of
Congress granting an additional ap-
preparation of s15, 900 which will
bring the total up to $40, 900. If
this be the case let US not weary of
we'll doing, Smyrna can afford to wait
two year for such good fortune. If
there is the least possibility of
getting a $40, 600 Federal Building
instead for s25, 900 the delay will
cause no great inconvenience while
in the end will give Smyrna a
handsomer and better equipped build
ing than we ever dreamed of. After
all, maybe everything will turn out
for the best. Despite the bad feel
ing engendered during the postoffice
site controversy, Smyrna will have
a newer and better hotel and per.
haps a Federal Building we car
look to with pride greater than VIZ
had ever anticipated.

1t is commendable indeed to see
the matter of town pride displayed
in our women s club, the Twentieth
Century Club of Smyrna. Having in
mind ga Smyrna Beautiful the
club women last year improved the
surrounding of the "standpipe" or
water tower with a coping and
grass plot. This year they are di-
recting their attention to another
approach to Smyrna, the surround
ings at Lake Como and the Gas
Plant. A coping will be placed
around this triangle and the plot
between the Gas House and Mill Race
beautified with a grass plot and
flowers. If the appearance is
changed and beautified as much as
was that around the standpipe. it
will be we'll worth the efforts of our
club women. Council should give
every aid and encouragement to
these movements which cannot help
but beaseify Smyrna. Good graded
streets and cutters, straight curb
lines and, above all, clean streets,
add much to the appearance of g
town, and along with this. the flower
gardens and grass plots instituted
by our enterprising Club women
Smyrna is taking a forward step il
municipal pride.

New Castle County has spent |
thousands upon thousands of dollars
on it's roads, yet still in many places
the macadam roads have shown a
waste of public money. In account

lures the Sunday Star says: "Would
it not be we'll, now that the county
is thoroughly awake to the serious
nature of the road problem, to set
apart portion of the appropriations
for the training of competent body
of road-masters. whose course Of
instructions should include a thoro
study of Eur ropean methods of road
repairing? 1t might even pay to
send a few men from every State
to the older countries where road
building has become a science. for
direct personal istructions upon the
subject. To these men should be en-
trusted the work of organizing and
instructing a road-repair force which
should be maintained continuously
upon the job and held at the high
standard of efficiency which charac-
terizes the railroad section gangs to
whose care is entrusted the upkeep
of our steam railroads. In this way
the people would get the worth of
their money put into road-buil1ing;
whereas, by our present slip-shod
methods at least Hfty per cent. of
the money, ts't. o. sa9ads agayd is wasted.

Home Teachers Apply
for Rural Schools
GRADUATES OF STATE NORMAL
WILL SOON ELIMINATE THE
FOREIGN TEACHERS.

An unusual number Of home school
teachers will be employed in the coun.
ty schools this year, condition that
is highly acceptable to the school au.
thorities and patrons alike.
Miss Minnie J. Nelson, county sup.
erintendent of schools, in going over
applications Of teachers for rural
schools today, was highly pleased
when she checked up such large
number of graduates of the State Nor.
NAL school, who desire to return to
the communities whence they came,
and teach school.
1T is very desirable change" said
Miss Nelson. "The greatest trouble
we have in Barnes county and all over
the state, with our rural schools, is
the imported, or itinerant teacher. 1t
is wholesome improvement to have
home teachers. and it will mean a
great improvement in our schools.
Tie number of teachers who live in
the county applying for schools this
year, is very unusual, and it will not
be necessary to import very many
teachers for this winters term"

100000 people attended the exhibi-

Motion pictures of blowing and har-
vesting in the great wheat fields OF
the Northwest and in the state of

attract local attention. Farms and
farm life, as it is. today in thirty
two states of the union, will
be shown, and many interesting
scenes having local color, will be por'
trayed true to nature. The pictures
are entertaining and instructive and
have done much to advance the cause
of scientific and agricultural exten.
