TIE SPIRIT OF SERVICE.

From the Dover State sentinel.
Two of our Kent county rCntcm-
poraries appear to have little con
troversy about how to bring about
desirable changes i'm the manage
matchmaking and repairing-of the
county roads The Chronicle advO-
Gates the making OF a special road
commission at the coming session OF
the State Assembly. The Index as
we understand IT, suggests the cleo
ton of better men as candidates for
the Levy Court, with special refer
ence to the matter in question.
To our thinking about this matter
there appears to be little difference
beween the two suggested plans, so
far as effective improvement of our
county roads is concerned. me mem
bers of the Levy Court, and the MEM
bership Of the suggested special COM
mission, must be selected from among
the citizenship OF the county, and, as
matter of course. be of about the
same grade in point Of character and
ability. If that be true, VIC see no
advantage i'm the special commission
theory. Then we incline 10 the old
fashioned method of electing road Of
fcials from the body of the people,
by the people.
The difficulty. as we understand
il. in getting good road supervisors,
or good officials in any other capa-
, city. is in the lack of public spirit
among the capable people. Good
roads have come to be an essential
for success in the rural life of the
people, as much so as is the govern
orship of the state. in the orderly
/ progress OF the state government.
There is no loss of dignity i'm serving
/ the public in humble place when
I the labor performed is for the public
veal. The trouble, however, lies IN
the fact that the really capable cti-
zen. those to whom the public service
appeals as honorable. however hum
/ bic il appears, is overlooked in the
process of selecting men for these
supposedly humble places. The ca
pablo men are supposed to be too
busy otherwise. or too big i'm one
way or possibly il may be too
proud, to serve in humble capacities
The cure for this public in is in
the development of a civic spirit that
/ esteems any public service honorable
4 Ia civic spirit that serves not alto
gether for money, but for the privi-
lege of serving.

IN nPORTANT CIVIC WORE.

VATE published I'm full yesterday statement issued
w by the Organizing Committee of the General
Service Board Previously we had outlined, locally
and editoriay. the main purposes of that Statewide
civic association that is in of organization
The detailed statement issued by Charles Warner aud
his associates must have BEEN Of necessity, exceed
ngly interesting to the general public
The General Service Board really will be the execu-
tive board of the Delaware Society OF Civic and So
cial Welfare That society purposes doing three unda
mental things One is to study welfare and civic prob
lens Another is to conduct campaigns of education
bearing upon such problems The third is to direct the
legal legislative and general propaganda work needed
TO bring about the reforms desired
The statement shows that at least $4,000 year will
needed by the society to make its plan effective 1t
is clear however, that the work of the society
will not be of a charitable nature and that funds
will be dispensed for charitable purposes. Since the
committee issued its first general statement on May
is. 1l6 persons have joined the organization by sub
scription memberships OF the $4,000 needed
annually. those 116 members guaranteed subscrp-
tons aggregatng S115s annually for three years While
that is gratifying, Il is by satisfying and
the organizing committee is exceedingly eager that
those who holding under advisement the matter Of
joining and subscribing shall act quickly and airma
lively.
II is perhaps the greatest welfare and civic improve
ment started in State and has behind it many
good men and
