STATE MILITARY
BOARD VISITS NEWARK
Arn1ory Site Not Yet Decided
Upon

Governor Charles r. Miller, Ad-
jutant General I. Pusey Wicker
saam and State Treasures Charles
A. Hastings, members Of the State
Military Commission met on Mon
day with local members of the
Board of Trade, and the officers of
Co. Z to consider the selection of
a site for the new Armory.
The last session Of the Dcgisla-
ture appropriated $4,000 for the
erection Of such a building.
Local military men had hoped to
secure the ground in the rear of
the Academy. The trustees Of that
institution held a meeting follow
ing the inspection on Monday when
vote was taken. Messrs. Evans,
Hossinger and DR.. Kollock voting
to grant the use of the land, the re-
naming six members of the Board
voting against it.
The amount appropriated in the
bill did not include an expenditure
for land, and it is expected the pub
lie spirited men Of Newark will get
together and make some provision
for the placing of the building.
The Military Board inspected sew
eral other sites on Monday but ow-
ing 10 the uncertainty of the sit
uation no definite action was posi-
bic.
It is understood the Military
Board will hold another meeting on
Saturday Of this week when the site
will probably be agreed upon.
should the site be selected at that
time the erection Of the building
will begin at once. Any further de-
lay will most likely mean that the
building will not be completed this
season.

mittee, the Fourth of July attrac-
tions will far surpass anything
ever presented to the people OF
this community. All arrangements
are complete for the fireworks and
New Castle County is invited to
come see the magic of "powder
busting" in scientific prescrip-
tions.
The Summer School students will
have an added attraction in see
ing Newark in Carnival array and
it is hoped on the part of our
young people to make them feel at
home.
An invitation has been extended
to the Boy Scouts who will provide
some feature Of the entertainment
on the ground.
Merchants and residents Of New
ark are urged to decorate their
stores and homes, to give the town
a gala appearance and a welcome to
the thousands Of visitors expected
during the week.
The town electricians are now
busy wiring the Academy grounds

The visit of the Peninsula Edi-
tors, as the guests Of the Chamber
Of Commerce Of Wilmington was
a success, and it is the general opin-
ion that it is but the beginning of
a closer relationship Of the tri-
state communities.
Judge Gray, POSTMASTER at the
banquet sounded the keynote when
he emphasized that geographically
the residents of the Delmarvia
peninsula are one common people,
and that state lines can in no way
separate the traditions, the ambi-
tions and the hopes of this penin-
sular, if not this state community.
In response to an invitation sent
out by the Chamber Of Commerce,
fifty-one rural editors from all
points on the peninsula met in
Wilmington on Monday afternoon,
that they might known each other
better socially and sense a definite
plan for greater things for the Gar
den Of the East. At the depots and
hotel members of the Chamber of
Commerce and city newspaper men
were modern Beau Brummels in
receiving The guests. Each editor
was given badge attached with
key pin which gave him the free
dom of the city. TO be so labeled
meant that your bill was already
paid. Strange as it may seem the
editors were alive to the situation
and wandered through the lobbies
Of the hotel with a truly metropoli-
tan air. Something doing all the
time with "you first, CASTOR, al
ways"

cred from the dazzling elegance of

cious and pleasing than the first.
AS it should have been, the ban
quet on Monday evening, was the
striking feature. The hall was dec
GRATED with shields representing
the different publications and at
each plate was a copy Of the initial
publication of the Peninsula Press,
edited by John Hamilton. Far be
it from any rural paper reported to
describe the menu. Suffice to say
it was Delaware dinner, served in
true Bullwinkle style.
Josiah Marvel, president Of the
Chamber of Commerce made the
opening address and in his usual
happy and sincere style stated the
idea Of the meeting, and thereafter
the whole tone was truly Mar
velian.
Judge Gray was introduced as
POSTMASTER, and not in recent
years has any Delawarean receiv-
ed the ovation that was accorded
him. State lines, party lines, diff
ferences Of opinion, political ideas
all gave way in wholesouled tribute
to Delaware honore dson.
Toasts were responded to: New
Castle County, by the cub Of The
Post; Kent county, A. d. Magee; /;
Sussex county, Robert G. Houston !;
Eastern Shore, H. L. Brewington !;
Virginia, S. F. Rogers. The opin-
ion expressed by the speakers was
that the thing most needed for the
efficiency Of better life, bigger bus
mess and future development Of the
Peninsula is merely hearty, sys-
tematic cooperation Of commune
ties represented. Avoiding the us
ual banquet compliments the meet
ing assumed an aspect of business.
1t was straightforward talk and
Wilmington was criticised kindly
but none the less pertinently, and
opinions were graciously received
Every guest more than ever recog-
nized Wilmington as the natural

Carnival plans are gradually as
Suming form and everything is be-
iEg put into readiness for the COM
ing Carnival.
The uniforms for our local boys
have arrived and Summer School
girls may well look forward to the
parade of our Heroes Of The Fire.
This action of the boys in purchas-
ing their own uniforms rather than
take from the Treasury is receiv-
ing commendation from all sides.
When cooperation and desire for
success goes down to the pocket
book, we may. well look for great
things in civic improvements.
The Firemen's Section OF the
parade will be marshalled by Lieut..
James McKeon of Company g.,
while the Automobile Section will
be guided by Newark Master of
The Wheel, A. F. Fader.
Although the Committee on Ar
rangements are reluctant to give
to the public, just yet, the list OF
drawing attractions, having some
striking surprises in store, it be-
came known today that Mrs. Jane
Murray. Firemcn and Newark S
friend, has consented to sing dur
ing the Carnival. Mrs. Murray is
now under signed contract in
theatrical work but has made this
provision in favor Of her friends,
the Fire Boys.

Large Attendance at Delaware
College Summer School
Combined Enrolment of Classes A26

In conformity with the act pass
ed by the last Legislature, the first
Summer School ever held at Del
aware College opened on Tuesday
with one hundred thirty-nine pu-
pills enrolled. Many of those who
have registered are young people
just graduated from the high
schools who are preparing to teach
in the fall. The number includes
pupils from Maryland several from
Pennsylvania, while the three coun-
ties Of Delaware are well represent
ed.
The boarding houses Of Newark
are filled with these summer guests,
and two of the fraternity houses
have been opened to the girlis-the
Sigma Phi Epsilon, chaperoned by
Miss Alice Harvey of Wilmington,
and the Kappa Alpha by Miss
Kathleen Moore of Wilmington.
The new Commissioner Of Educa-
ton, DR.. Charles A. Wagner, is
present and in direct touch with
the teachers. He will conduct
classes in PSYCHOLOGY and school
management throughout the five
weeks session.
The subjects selected by those
enrolled indicate that the idea is
serious work, rather than a pleasant
outing at the State College. The
most popular classes are those in
methods, grammar and composition
arithmetic and agriculture.
The enrolment is increasing
daily and is expected to reach 200
by Saturday.. A list of those al
ready registered follows.

IN Open-air conceIt was Given by
Minnehaha Band at the Washing
ton House on Monday evening and
was much euioved by the crowd
that gathered around. The boys
did finely and a series Of concerts

very popular. A suitable band
