many weeks under the direction of
George Frank Lord, manager of the
advertising division of the +. I. du-
Font de Nemours Powder Company
and the writer.
The purpose Of the expedition was
three-fold; to honor the memory and
patriotism Of H. l. DUPONT de- Ne
mours; TO pay tribute of respect
to the United States dragons and
others who accompanied the original
powder train, and TO aid in the CEN
tennial of the battle Of Lake Erie and
the celebration of a centenary of
peace between the United States and
England. The proposition was hnan-
ced by members Of the duPon. fam-
ily Contrary TO a somewhat gen
eial impression. IL was not an "ad-
advertising scheme" of the T.. I. du-
Font de Nemours Powder Company.

When the original powder train
was rushed TO tho lake century

means of doing battle with our
British kinsmen. AT that time there
was all the misunderstanding the
bitterness and the hearthurninEs Of
quarrel between mother and child.

was virtually identical in oven the

mutual respect

Prof. Says Orchard is One Of
Best for Teaching and Ex-
pertinent Work
SOME CHANGES In
DELAWARE FACULTY

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Del. July 49, Previous
to giving an illustrated lecture i'm the
Delaware College oratory last night
TO the summer school students, Prof
essor A. h. Cromwell, of the West
Chester Normal School, paid com
pliment to the college experiment
farm. which he had visited during
the day. Professor Cromwell stated
that the orchard at the farm was ono
OF the best for teaching and expert
ment work that he had ever seen al
though he has visited many OF the
experiment farms throughout the
country. He also spoke of visiting the
fruit show in Wilmington last winter
and said no State in the Uaion can
grow better fruit than Delaware
Professor Cromwcll's talk was on
the rural schools and the necessity
OF making changes In them as a
means Of keeping the children from
leaving the country for the city. He
said he would not speak of the school
only as an institution but as some
thing to make better home. He
illustrated with latern slides what can
be done along this line and impress
ed upon the students the necessity
of bringing domestic science, modern
sanitation, etc. right into the school.
He also told of how helpful it is to
teach agriculture ih the schools and
showed many views illustrating what
Is being done in that respect
One OF the concluding slides gave
some statistics on the earning capa-
city Of those having a common school
education and those with a high
school education. The average earn
ing capacity for the person havine
the common school education Is $3.50
n year and putting the average that
he will earn money at "A years he
would make s2S.6O0 in life time
The one having advantage Of a high
school education according to statis-
tics earns on an average of $1,000 a
year. Taking of the four years that
he spends in the high shcool. hs
would earn $4,000. in life or S11. 400
more than the one with the common
school education. The slide further
showed that as the high SCHOOL bo,
spends about zoo days in the higl
school it really means that he earn,
SIS so. each Of those zoo days.
Much OF the time OF the lecture wal
consumed in Illustrating agricultur,
work that should be done in tn,
