Greatest Commencement
In History Planned

Plans for Delaware College
Commencement week are about
complete, and indicate the great
est Commencement the institution
has ever known. This pleasing pre-
diction is founded on the part tax
en- by the Alumni Association
which has planned two-days re-
union for Tuesday and Wednesday,
June II and IS.
The program proper will open on
Sunday morning, June Is, with
the annual address to the Young
Mems Christian Association by
Rev. J. S. Gilfillan of Newark.
In the evening Rev. William H.
Laird, rector of Christ Church,
Greenville, Del, will preach the
baccalaureate sermon to the grad
uating class.
Monday, June 16. will be the an
nual Farmers Day at the College
Farm, a feature of Commencement
week which has grown in popular
ity with each passing year. All
visitors will be given an opportun-
ity to make an inspection of the
farm. Members of the Expert
ment Station Staff will be on
hand to act as guides to the guests
and explain in detail the various
experiments that are being carried
on in the interest Of Delaware pro-
ducts. AT noon luncheon will be
served to all visitors on the lawn,
the number last year reaching $500.
Concerts will be given by the Col
lege Band and an exhibition drill
by the College Cadets.
Governor Charles r. Miller will
be present and address the gather
ing following the luncheon. DR..
Willis Moore, formerly chief of the
weather bureau at Washington,
will also speak. The program af-
fords pleasing combination of
profit and pleasure. Seats are
erected in the shade of the fine old
trees on the lawn and friends from
all parts of the State look forward
to this day at the State Farm.
Prof. Alva Agee of Rutgers Col
lege, DR.. VIM Hart Dexter, repre-
senting the Secretary Of Agricult-
Newark post., 1913-05-28

ure will speak. An effort is being
made to have Governor Bass of New
Hampshire present, also Governor
Goldsboro of Maryland.
Two and perhaps three farm
tractors will give demonstrations.
Promptly at 300 p. m. the Glass
Day exercises will be held in the
College Oratory. The exercises at
the farm are timed so that all who
wish may enjoy the fun gotten off
by the Juniors at the expense of the
Seniors and members of the Fac
ulty.
On Monday evening DR.. G. A.
Harter, president of the College
will give a reception to the grad
yates. The contest for the w. c.
T. U. prizes, $25, $15, and $40, for
the best essays on some subject of
scientific temperance will also be
held on Monday evening.
At 1890 Tuesday morning the
competitive drill for the Roberts
medal between the four companies
of cadets will be held. 1t will be
impossible to hold this drill on the
athletic field as usual because Of the
fact that the new grass will not
be up and it would greatly injure
the field at this time. 1t will prob
ably be held on the campus in the
rear of Recitation Hall. Officers
from Fort DUPONT will act as
judges. The keen competition for
this medal makes the event an un-
usually interesting one.
At 11.OO Tuesday morning the
Board of Trustees of the College
will hold their annual meeting
when reports will be submitted.
Summer School plans and a number
of other important matters will
come up at this meeting. Tuesday
afternoon the Alumni reunion will
predominant the program. A grand
uniformed parade, which will be in
line according to classes will pre-
cede the lnterclass field meet. Eg-
mont Horn, chairman of the com
mlttee in charge is leaving nothing
undone to make the reunion a sue
cess. All classes after nineteen
hundred are requested to appear in
the parade in costume. There will
be an imported band for the occa
sion.

Heed The Warning
Editor of The Post,
Dear Sir:

S''N
Dear Sir:
As the date set for voting on the
proposal of placing an up-to-date
sewerage system i'll this town of
Newark, is near at hand, it would
seem that the present outbreak of
typhoid fever III that section of
the town. supposed to be drained
that is. West Main street-should
serve as a solemn warning to every
property owner. as we'll as every
resident of the community, to give
this question most serious cOnsld-
Grafton.
It is almost universally conceded
that open drains and cess pools, as
now exist in our town, are a men
ace to the health of the community.
The proposed sewer will do away
with this. and reduce to a very
considerable extent the danger
from the typhoid epidemic that
now cOnfrOnts Us.
It does seem that no taxpayer
having the best interest and good
name Of our attractive little town
at heart. could for a moment think
Of voting against this proposal
from any selfish motive; such as
the additional expense that they
may be put to in paying their
share toward this public improve
ment. Surely, Mr. Editor, our hu-
man life is Of more Importance than
the question of any expense that
may be placed upon any property
holder. as their share for this pro-
ject.
AS a resident Of Newark for Il
number of years, | am deeply inter-
ested in anything that tends for
imrovement i'll the moral and ply
steal condition of the town; and
especially at this time, the I'M
portant question of adopting some
measure that will reduce typhoid
fever or any other epidemics that
may be due to an antiQuated sys-
TEN of drainage.
Now is the time to settle this i'm
portant question once and for all;
and to give the town officials au-
thority to proceed without delay to
bringing to pass this consumation,
devoutly to be wished fora

THE FINAL DECISION

If Typhoid Fever should enter your home between
now and Saturday WOULD YOU VOTE?
That's reasonable, pertinent question: it's
possible condition.
If one of your family were to be taken sick and the
Doctor, with shake of the head said "Typhoid'-
WOULD YOU VOTE?
If he should give the reason-cess-poos bad drain
age-woud you question him?
HOW WOULD YOU VOTE?
If he were to give as his opinion that Sewer System
would least lessen and probably defeat the dangers OF
fever facing every day; he cited instances where
such improvements had rid even pest-holes OF disease
if he told you that by Sanitation and Sewer Engineering
that Panama had been rid of fevers-agas these facts
HOW WOULD YOU VOTE?
Would you question the manner or method of nstala-
ton proposed and advised by reliable expert
ing advice-a by wide training and experience
sdered an authorty-would you quibble minor de-
tails in the bi2 Honestly now if Typhoid should enter
your home-HOW WOULD YOU VOTE?
Typhoid has been the alarming and far too often the
fatal verdict in many Of our homes.
1t may be yours next!
HOW WILL YOU VOTE?
Remember, we are living under different conditions
demanding improvements Remember the population
has doubled in the last ten point worthy OF con-
sderation by citizens living here twenty-five years
The best information suggests the Sewer precau-
ton All advice and authority agree this. No phy-
scian or health expert has differed on this point
Present conditions existing here We're predicted ten
years ago.
HOW WILL YOU VOTE?
To aid in protecting neighbor hone-if not tFat-to
do your part toward protecting your own home, is the
opportunity presented.
HOW WILL YOU VOTE?
Civic pride progress of the town, arguments but
they pale into nothingness when you say Suppose
Typhoid enters my home" The question is not alone
the duty of intelligent citizenship but OF moral RESPONSE
bilty. Dare you shirk it!
Before choosing your ballot ask yourself this strong
stern question, 'Wha if Typhoid should enter my home
How shall vote?'
HOW WILL YOU VOTE?

DAVIS THEATER.
Last Chance to See the Wonderful Bi
 cycle Act of MacRae and CIecc.

The bill on the first half of this week has proved to be one of the best seen here in some time, and when we say that it means that it is away above the ordinary. MacRae and Clegg have set a new standard in bicycle acts and the applause that greeted these clever performers at every trick was tre- mendcus. The lady of this team is without a doubt the cleverest lady cyclist on the American stage today. and the many difficult feats she does are done in a finished manner that soon convipces her audience that she is a wonder the male member of the act introduces some original and clever comedy ss well as some clever stunts on one wheel. The remainder of the bfil is well balanced and includes the Musical Bills, a couple of musicians who introduce a lot of comedy between their different selections. The Durands have a. novelty roller skating and danc- ing turn with plenty of good comedy that keeps the house in roars of laugh ter while they are on. Ollie Wood, the little Buster Brown kid has a se- lection of songs and dances that get her lots of applause and many admir- CTS.
 For the last half of the week an- other novelty bill is booked and in- cludcs the Electros, who do some thrilling. feats with electricity. The Brssgear Brothers have a comedy gyfn- nastic act that is 8 positive scream, Bowls and Dariey are lady and gen. tletnan from Australia and they have something new to offer.

SIS and S45 and a special car on the re- furn trip is planned to reachf the city tn time to make connections with the a1.15 cars for other points of the city The best dance music is assured be- cause the Cadillac orchestra is to fur nish it. and this alone is sufficient to attract, and then. of course, there is the added pleasure of dancing in the open afr instead of within the four walls of a dance hall, a feature which is greatly appreciated during the sum- mer months.
 The casino will be open this week on Thursday. Friday and Saturday eve nings and the admission to the park for these nights will be 25 cents for gentlemen and 10 cents for ladies. The dancing will be free
