EDITORIAL OPINION

tant Conference which closed last
Tuesday evening in Milford, was a
pleasant point in the local affairs Of
the town. The attendants from dis
tance were congenial with the people
who entertained them. and their happy
disposition has left a pleasant recOl-
lection with the people generally.
Aside from this, there is no question
whatever but that II has been a great
financial benefit to the church in
which the sessions we're held. as the
remaining debt due for building the
handsome church edifce has been
subscribed and wiped out. The con-
gregation feels doubly grateful to tile
people of Milford, and especially to
those who opened their homes and en-
tertained the members and visitors Of
the conference, and also for the re-
moval Of the load of debt which was
heavy on the congregation. The
members have expressed their appre-
citation of these kindnesses' and make
this act public through the column9
of the Chronicle. Now they will i'm
mediately tackle the proposition of
building a parsonage for their pastor,
and will again tighten the harness Of
effort on the part of this young but
hustling congregation.

CLEANUP DAY FOR LEwES.

From the Lewes Pilot.
In conformity with the Board Of
Health. Mayor James T. Thompson
has served notice that all household
ers and property owners clean out
their cellars, back yards. ETC., and
keep them clean at all times, thereby
protecting yourself and neighbors
against possible sickness Of any kind
And there is no better time TO begin
this than right now. Spring is with
us and every citizen should bear this
in mind and see that all rubbish, filth
and accumulations are got rid of on
their property which will make Lewes
much brighter, healthier and better
looking during the hot summer days
that are to follow. Houses painted,
barns and fences whitewashed will
also lend much to the appearance of
our home town.
This is indeed a movement that
should appeal to every one in order to
promote thrift and cleanliness and to
make our homes more beautiful, so
that our town will appeal to the visi-
tors as the town beautiful. Let all
lend a hand along these lines TO clean
up property indoors and outdoors and
make Lewes one of the cleanest and
best looking towns to be found any
where. And 1t can be done if all will
help.

NEW RATING FOR TEACHERS.

Miss Bessie G. Devine, acting super
intendent of the city schools, and the
principals Of the schools constituting
the classification board will meet
during the week of April q to rate
the city teachers according to set
standard, already announced.
Teachers who are in the A class are
entitled to an increase of $50 a year
in their salaries until the maximum
for their grade is reached teachers
in b class SIS. in c class none.
Owing to the condition of its finances
the Board of Education has never
been able except once to make the
official ratings of any financial benefit
to the teachers. The late Superin-
tendent Twitmyer paid high tribute
to the professional spirit OF the
teachers who year after year meet
the requirements of the Board of
Education under the classification
scheduled without any return. The
object of the classification plan was
to make every teacher independent
and to make salary depend upon per-
sonal initiative and effort. A COM
mittee representing the teachers has
the matter I'm hand at the present
time and an effort is being made to
have the Board Of Education placed
in the position to make the classifica-
tion schedule financially effective
next year.

SELFISHNESS AND LEGISLATION.
From the Elkton Democrat.
After the General Assembly had pro-

the Maryland Agricultural College,
selfshness showed its hand and re-
suited in the bill providing for a mod
ern and enlarged Agricultural College
going to the junk-heap. The House of
delegates passed the bill first and It
was sent to the Senate. There it was
also passed, but in such an amended
form, as 10 kill the merit of the bill.
Upon being returned to the House,
that body refused to concur in the
amendments and a conference com
mittee was appointed from both
Houses. They failed TO agree and the
bill was killed. When plans were
being outlined for the state to take
over the college, the trustees Git was
stated upon the floor of House, prom
ised not to interfere with plans being 2
made by the state, but nOtwithstand-
ing this fact, as soon as the increased
appropriation had been made for the
college, the. trustees began to work so
they would still retain control of the
institution. They succeeded only in
killing the plans for an enlarged Agri-
cultural college.
