Dedication Of Grounds
For Women's College

Simple but impressive exercises
were held last Monday afternoon
on the newly purchased ground up
on which is to be erected the Affil-
lated College for Women, when
ground for the two new buildings
was broken by the Governor Of the
State and members of the Commits
sion.
Immediately following the con-
clusion of the afternoon s speaking
at the College Farm, the crowd ad-
journed to the site, midway be-
tween the College proper and the
farm.
Governor Miller, chairman of the
Commission, presided, stating the
object of the exercises in the fol-
lowing words:
"Ladies and Gentlemen You
are here today as participants IN
the first exercises which mark the
opening of greater opportunities
for the young women OF Delaware
and the commencement of new
epoch iii the history of Delaware
College.
"In this institution to be erected
upon these grounds will be educat-
ed many young women who will ex-
ert an influence upon the intellect
ual development Of the future gen
erations because education begins
at the mothers knee and every
word spoken within the hearing OF
the child has an influence upon It's
character. It were better the boy
be unborn than untaught. 1t there
fore becomes the duty Of our state
to give our young women an edu-
cation which will equip them to be-
come intelligent wives and mothers.
"Let us hope that the results de-
rived from the Affiliated College
may far exceed the expectations OF
those who have so long and faith
fully advocated it's erection. Many
of us who are here today cannot ex-
pect to live to see the perfect fruit
that will grow out of the movement
which we are here inauguratlng:
Nevertheless, each and every one OF
us wish it God-speed and an abun-
dance of success" "
DR.. G. w. Twitmyer, secretary
of the Commission, read parts of

SOME GOOD THINGS RECON-.

As We remarked Yesterday, Gov
ernOr Trammells inaugural addres:
was rich in sound practical sugges
lions for the progress of Florida
along riehr lines The Tampa Tri-
bone summarizes some of the best 0!
them as follows:
Simplitied court procedure and
mole speedy trial in both civil and
criminal cases.
Establishment OF experimental
farms in the Ever&lades; federal
maintenance and care of the drain
age canals.
Change in convict system. with
drawing prisoners from lease system
in reasonable instruments and plac-
Ing them upon the public roads
Stronger and strirter laws against
wildcat corporations.
Approval of land literature by
State department of agriculture, to
prevent land frauds and the hood
linking of innocent purchasers.
A constitutional amendment Civ
ing towns and cities the right TO
amend their charters. and removing
this duty from the Legislature
The governor approves good road
building, in rather general terms,
but does not specify or endorse any
plan for the building of State high
ways. In the opinion of the Tri-
bune, the State should take action
in this matter and it will undoubt-
eddy come before the next session of
the Legislature in some definite
shape. 1t is to be hoped the gov
ernor will lend his aid to whatever
good plan is proposed for the build
Ing of State highways.
On the convict lease question, the
governor leaves no room for doubt
as to his attitude He is against the
lease system and believes it should
rass out of existence with the en-
piration of present contracts He does
not favor turning the convicts over.

It must be dove gradually. with
