close to nature and spent hours
reading Homer or Shakespeare.
While a young man his family re-
moved to Brooklyn, and here the
lad spent hours in riding on the
buses and observing intimately
every phase Of life in the big city
across the river He became inter-
ested in newspaper work and be-
came editor of a paper in New Or
leans. Early in his career he adopt
ed creed to which he always adj
hered, declaring literature a means
to an end and not an end In itself.
He was an ardent apostle Of dem
ocracy and maintained that the
hope of America lay in her arti-
sans and laborers.
Mr.. Dutton did not touch upon
the prose work Of Whitman, but
confined his discussion to his poet
ry. He quoted the words of the
writer himself, concerning "Leaves
Of Grass: "The words of my book
are nothing; the drift of it, every
thing" as illustrating the writer s
ideal. Though many Of his lines
are irregular and the poems hard
to classify, they are filled with
beautiful phrases which stamp
them as real poetry. The titles of
many have a peculiarly haunting
quality.
Whitman believed in his country
and claimed the title "The poet of
optimism. His faith in the work
ers of America is expressed in many
poems. He insisted on the dignity
and ioyousness Of laboring with the
hands.
His work is marked by wonder
full descriptions and it is probably
through this power that Whitman,
the poet, will be best known to the
future.
Stevenson as epitaph, written by
himself, might appropriately be ap
piled to Whitman:
"Gladly he lived and gladly he
died,
He laid him down with a will. -

which will be given early in March

BLUE RIBBON COW

Maud II. I'd Lass, Number 1913,
ISIS some name for COW. Cows
around here are usually known as
Cherry, Bloss, Cream, Geraldine,
that Rogers Heifer, or some such
name. Lots of farmers look upon
these long fancy names with num-
bers attacked as a bluff. A COW is
d COW and the milk production de-
pends on her ''raisin - But here
is a COW, only one Of the record
herd at the farm, that is deserving
Of all the titles she can carry.
Maud II. I'd S Lass has made a
record that will put the Farm on
the map all over the country.
She's beauty, fit to be presented
at a national fair or discussed in a
drawing ROOM With her record
printed in the Cow Blue Book, she
will rank high in Social Circles.
This COW i'll one year has produced
over II 1-2 times her weight in
milk or 1-2 her weight in butter.
That's some cow, boys. Go down
to the Farm and look her over.
She's yours, so don't deny her re-
cord.
All over this country on rich
mems estates, in show rings, this
COW will be subject of comment,
and it s a Delaware COW. Let us
not forget to appreciate that.
This COW is deserving of Blue
Ribbon, a medal, L. L. D., honor
airy Ph. d., or whatever you give a
COW in recognition of work done at
Colleges.
Not all glory to the COW either.
This man Spiers who has cared for
her-hats off, please.
We do not know how many let
ters he carries back of his name,
but this we do know-his service is
deserving Of recognition. It's not
poetry, it's not bridge designing
nor political philosophy, but it's
something just as good-and helps
solve the cost Of living question.
This man, like some laboratory re-
cluse, has quietly Experimental
and success is his.
Talk about making two blades of
grass grow where only one grew
before,--why this man and COW
have turned the grass into over 10
tons Of milk i'll one year.
Hey, there, you "Aggie, " milk
with both hands.

LOCAL HISTORY

This section around Newark is rich
III history and tradition. Many
scenes of action, important in the
life OF the State, even in the fate of
the Nation, have had their setting
in and about these hills of White
Clay and Pencader. Many of these
have, of course, been duly recorded
and even in this work-a-day world,
thrill us with their deeds of ro-
nance and daring. But of these,
we do not wish, just now, to speak.
IT is rather of those interesting
stories, told in reminiscent mood at
times by our older residents-but
not to set in print.
Nothing aids in developing and
holding the love of our children for
the old homestead and home COM
munity, as the recital of the scenes
OF former days when our parents
played their part in the life of
town and state. These stories need
not all be Of serious nature or have
a bearing on town development or
State advancement. A little Incl
dent of social life, an old time
sleighing carnival, the school de-
bate, a story Of the old Newark
Band, a political campaign-all
are extremely interesting. Not only
are they interesting but they give
touch of local color to days agone.
which goes far in helping us to un-
derstand the times, and appreciate
our advantages today.
We wish some Of our older resi-
dents would cast aside their modes
ty and tell us Stories of those Old
Days-so refreshing in this day of
stress and strife. Let us set them
down in print. We who are pre-
pairing to take your places will re-
ceive both pleasure and benefit
and hand them down to another
day.
Who has an interesting story
Let s make a collection for Newark.

COLLEGE EXPENSES

As a matter of correction of a
mistaken opinion held in some
quarters, the decision Of the Col
Iege Board of Trustees to pay the
President a salary Of $4,000 will not
in any way embarrass the State
Treasury. No appropriation by
the State or National Government
is made for this, nor will the State
be asked for such.
The Alumni Association of the
College last year started to raise a
fund, the income from which will
be given to the College for this
specific purpose. Judging from re-
ports made at the Annual Dinner
Of the Association on last Saturday
night, it can be safely predicted
that the amount will be raised and
the income placed at the disposal
Of the Board Of Trustees before it's
June meeting.
This statement. is made in cor
recting views held and talked Of by
some, not too warm friends Of the
institution. A gentleman i'll speak
ing Of the salary last week said,
without thought or investigation,
"Another load on the taxpayers |
guess. " Such statements, while
without semblance of foundation,
when spread broadcast, have a ten
dency to create an opposition from
those unacquainted with the actual
facts and conditions. While it is
only fitting that the State should
make such provision for it's own in
stitution, the Alumni and friends
realizing the danger Of burden to
the State Treasury, have seen fit to
lend their individual help for the
success Of the institution.
When the individual taxpayer
realizes that Delaware College is
his and that as such, he has an in
dividual responsibility toward it's
maintenance and growth-then the
institution will never lack funds
for efficient management. The all
toO-prevalent thought that Della
ware should be cared for by grad
uatesand the National Government
Is only another proof that Delaware
has not yet sensed her full respon-
sibility to her State Institutions.
We have nothing but praise to say
OF the generosity of recent Legisla-
lures. They have been most liber-
al, but these appropriations have
been made by the untiring efforts
of few individuals against too
strong opposition from some quar-
ters of public opinion.
Down East, in the West ,-educa-
ton comes first in the thought of
man and citizen,-never last. Del
aware stands today twenty-sixth.
A sober study of conditions
would correct this and Delaware
would take her rightful position.

WALT WHITMAN,
THE POET
Interesting Lecture In Recita
ton Hall

The second of the series of fac.
ulty lectures to which the public
Is invited, attracted an appreciative
audience to Recitation Hall last
Tuesday evening. In spite of the
severe winter weather that Bn9,evail.
ed the comfortable little hall was
well filled with those interested in
our national literature. The hour
that followed was taken up in an
interesting, critical Interpretation
Of our most distinctively American
poet, when Mr.. Dutton Of the Eng
lish Department, discussed "Walt
Whitman, the Poet" and illustrat-
ed his remarks with readings from
the poems.
The speaker pronounced Whit
man the most original, perhaps the
most representative, of American
writer's. In order to. appreciate
him, he said, it is necessary to
know something Of the origin and
development Of American literature
)ur national literature differs wide
ly from that Of other countries. In
Europe, literature began with the
ballad, and became more refined
and polished as civilization advanc-
ed-the literature kept pace and
reflected the life of the people.
American literature had it's begin
ming when European literature
had reached its highest stage of de-
velopment. Our writer's harked
back to European ideas rather than
reflected those Of the new country.
The result was an exotic instead
of growth typically American.
We were much slower in declaring
our literary independence than our
political one.
Until the advent Of Whitman
our American writer's had been for
the most part, but echoes of great
er English Writers. Whitman
was the first to aspire to be a
spokesman Of the ideals and feel
ings of America.
In study of Whitman it is
necessary to consider the formative
influence which produced the man.
AS a child he had little formal ed
ucation and was regarded as odd
by those who knew him. lie lived
