QUESTION RIGHT TO SWORD
Historic Relic Now In Possession Of
University Of Pennsylvania Has
Evoked Discussion.

The gold sword that Louis XVI pre-
sented to John Paul Jones In recogni-
ton Of the fight he made with the Bon
Homme Richard against the Scraps
has been presented TO the University
of Pennsylvania by Edward G. Dale,
son OF the late Richard G. Dale, a for
mer president OF the Society OF Cincin-
natl. The sword has been In h pos
session OF the Dale family for more
than a century.
This is the sword which Charles
Henry Hart, a local historian, de-
clares now should be in possession
OF Admiral Dewey. It had been gen
orally accepted that the sword passed
by will OF Commodore Jones to Com
modore Dale. a forbear OF Richard C,
Dale. MIR. Hart denied this. He de

WASH THE CELERY STALKS
Advice Given by the Department Of
Agriculture Should Be Needed
by Every Housewife.

Since the United States Department
of Agriculture has discovered that It
is practically impossible to bring sat
isfactory celery to market unless the
plants have been sprayed with Dor
deaux mixture, or the salts OF copper
declared injurious for use In food prod
ucts, two warnings have been Issued.
one to the housewives telling them to
wash the celery before using II, and
the other to the farmers telling them
that the danger In using this blight
preventative was due to a faulty
spraying apparatus. II should be
spread at high pressure to make a fine
mist instead Of In a stream which set
ties on the leaves and runs down the
stalks. In this way II settles in the
roots and Is not washed away by the
rain, giving the celery a blue look.
However. v en II the spray Is prop
erly used the department Of agricul-
ture advises the to break
the lunches and wash and scrub the
stalks before they m eaten. Chem
ical analysis proves that his cleans
ing removes nesrly all the copper
left by the spray and prevents injury
to those eating the celery.
