AN ExCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY.

THRoUGH action by the Delaware State Grange
Wilmington has been selected definitely as the
place for the next annual meeting of the National
Grange. That means that city must take steps in
ample time to size up to its responsibility in this

CHRISTMAS CLUB CHECKS MAILED,

CHRISTMAS CLUB CHECKS MAILED.
Checks for the members of the Christ
mas Savings Club of the Delaware Trust
Company were mailed today. The club
closed this month, and the hundreds of
members are receiving the thousands OF
dollars they have saved, and are now
congratulating themselves on the fact
that they were wise enough to join last
December. This is the first club of this
kind to be operated here, but they have
been in operation with great success in
many other cities. 1t gives an Qppor-
tunity to save small sums regularly,
which is the secret of all saving. The
1914 club opens on Monday, the 29th in
stant, and the prospects are for a great
increase in membership over the present
year.

NBENEFICIAL AND HARMFUL yIvIsECmON.

~ RUELTN TO animals never more unpopular
- in civilized countries than it is today. The heart
of the world beats in sympathy with the spirit under
wing the activities of organizations formed for the
purpose Of protecting animals and birds that
defend themselves against heartless men, women and
children. There are times, however when public SYM
pathy finds itself unable to follow OF those
ganizations in their policies uncompromising radi-
casm. That is especially with respect TO anti
vivsectonists and their attacks upon reputable and
highly beneficial institutions like the Rockefeller In
sfitute for Medical Research That institution has
done, and still is doing, great work for mankind
Many OF the remarkable results achieved have come
have suffered in many instances no doubt exquisite
II not inflicted because the experiment
desired ndict It. but because the advancement
OF medical science and the safety and welfare of
kind demanded it. The general public recognizes that
fact and that is why the ndiscrimnate attacks made
by the anti-viyisectonists fail to make greater I'M
preston.
No doubt many crimes against animals and birds
committed in the name Of vivisecton Public sympa-
are attempting to stamp such purposeess cruelty.
The line to be drawn however, when serious
minded and purposefu investigators who have
fare Of humanity at heart, made the objects
of attack by those who fail to dnerentate between
beneficial and harmful yivisecuon.
Observation-Disclosures may ind comfort in the state
ment inst made by DR.. Richard Cowen, of the Royal
College Surgeons London. that vivisection brings
benefits to repay for the suffering entails upon ami
nent like Dr. Fexner and Dr. Care for instance,
who not only believe in the benefits of vlvsection but
also practice it and defend 1t. There two sides
to the question and also middle ground which
open-mnded controv versiasts should be able to meet

PHONE TRUST CASE UP.
Vice President Kingsbury Confers
With Attorney General NcReynolds.

What policy the Department of Justice
intends to apply to the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company, the So
called Bell telephone trust" was
sought yesterday by n. c. Kingsbury,
vice president Of the company, in a con-
ference with Attorney General Mercy
nolds. Department officials would not
comment upon the visit. 1t Is probable,
however. that the proposed suit against
this trust will not be started at this
time.
Before his visit to the Attorney Gen.
eral. Mr. Kingsbury was at the interstate
commerce commission, which is ex-
pected to report it's ideas of whether
the best policy for the government to-
ward the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company is to regulate 1t. compel
competition, or approve its acquisition
and operation by the government
