sYMRNA WANTS IrIcE FIcrnRr

SMYRNA WANTS JUICE FACTORY.
Why don't our grape growers get
busy and have grape Juice factory
here. No section Of Delaware has a
larger acreage than tne smyrna-Clay-
ton district and with a total of nearly
600 acres In vineyard as against 800
at Dover, the argument in favor Of
the location Of a juice plant here is
sufficient TO merit the activity OF our
growers and business men to either
organize a local company or induce
the big Welch concern 10 move their
plant here. A Juice factory would be
fine thing for our growers. Il would
do away with providing fancy car
riers and like tomato canning could
become an important industry for our
farmers. Won't some influential, ac-

we understand, can be purchased for

AUTOMOBILE COMMISSIONER ON
RIGHT TRACK.

From the Salisbury News.
Reports through the daily press
are 70 the effect that Automobile
Commissioner Rove has determined
to break up the reckless driving of
automobiles in Maryland. Last week
he rescinded the license of two dri-
vers in Baltimore and one in Talbot
county. In the latter case Il was that
of the owner of the machine Mr..
Rowe says he is determined that the
people who operate automobiles in
Maryland shall live up to the
speed law as well as to the local laws
governing the operation Of machines,
and that wherever his attention is
called to the reckless driving Of ma
chimes In any part of the state, and
the cases can be proven, he will take
away the license Of the car and put
It permanently out Of business.
We are glad TO see that Commits
sioner Rowe Is alive to this most i'm
portant question. Automobiles are
getting so numerous in all sections Of
the state. and there is such a large
percentage of reckless drivers that Il
is necessary to the protection of the
! life and limb of the average citizen

/ these reckless drivers that the public
has some rights as we'll as the auto
mobiles, and that the use of the streets
and highways are not alone for the
automobiles.
Commissioner Rowe will send out
his inspectors all over the state dur
ing the next few weeks. and take
survey of the entire situation. Each
town and community will be visited
and the conditions sized up TO see just
how the automobile law is being lived
up to. Salisbury will be a productive
field for these inspectors, and a visit
of a few days here might result IN the
iessening of the speed mania in many
cases. Salisbury has not been without
her automobile accidents and q little
jacking-up from the commissioner
may result In much good in this COM
munity and save life for the future.

will give time for meditation and
study. Improved homes, and women
in them, who know how to keep house
and prepare food. He urged better
educational ideals, and study of mod
ern subjects as a basis of society
economics, sanitation and other prac-
teal problems of life, should be sub
stituted for ancient languages, and
other mere intellectual pursuits.
Hon. ]. N. Powers, state superin-
tendent of education, spoke at night,
on what the department of education
is doing. He took up the subject of
rural schools and showed the work
being done to improve these, and to
elevate the standards. He showed the
place of the agricultural high schools
in the state system, He said these
schools are full of boys and girls, be-
cause high school education has,
through them, been brought in touch
with the pocketbooks of the farmer.
He strongly advocated the correla-
ton of the entire educational machin-
cry of the state, from kindergarten to
the university.
He commended the A. & NJ. College
for coming down here with this ex-
tension work. saying that by reaching
the large number of teachers that are
to go out from this Normal College,
a vast amount of practical informa-
ton will be disseminated. He favors
the use of the material developed at
the agricultural high schools being 50
used as to work both ways-down and
up-in the state educational system.
w. H. Smith said that his subject
was Rural Schools" and that would
give him chance to take a crack at |
but the lateness of the hour
prevented him from making speech |
It this time and he promised to come
iome other time when he would make
| real speech. He did say, however,
hat the time had come for changing

cached the conclusion that to edu-
ate people they must be reached
Trough their avocation. The time
