Plans For Increasing
National Defence

OF great interest to the militia
men throughout the, country in,
general, and to the officers and men
of the Organized Militia Of lDela-
ware in particular is the announce
ment from Washington to the effect
that steps are about to be taken by
the officials of the War ,Depart-
lent for the enlargement Of the mil-
itia forces Of all the states. The
General Staff and War College, 1t
is said, has been at work for more
than! two months in arranging the
details Of a system that will prob
ably be recommended by the Sec
retary Of War and presumably with
the sanction of the President that
will give this country well train
ed fighting force that will be the
equal of any of the armies Of the
world.
The nearest basis for the reor-
ganization Of the fighting forces Of
the United States as reached by
experts contemplates the creation
of volunteer reseryist force to
bring the forty-eight state militia
forcesAto 500, 600 men who can be
made ready for active military duty

How Kindness To -

THE economic value of kindness
to animals is too well known today
to need much comment but now
and again this fact is emphasized
by some new experiment. efaa-ra
The effects of gentleness IN the
management of milch cows was re-
Gently demonstrated at a. Kansas
agricultural experimental station.
Three COWS were used as subjects.
They were treated with u tmost
care and found to produce 80
pounds of milk, containing 4.3 per
cent. Of butter fat. The same cows,
later on, were frightened by rough
speaking, loud voices, the barking
Of dogs, etc, and the decrease IN
the milk supply was thirteen
pounds, containing only 3.4 per

that these decreased secretlons are

DELAWARE FOOT BALL RECORD
A RESUME OF THE SEASONS WORK

this year Coach. McAvOy put HIM
lat tackle and Cam had the best
season of his football career. He
was probably the strongest defen-
sive player, on the team and his
tackles featured number of the
games. Grieves played guard for
the first season regular on the VAR
sity and proved a valuable and
steady player. } slGoa0d ]
4 Croft played end for his second
year and put up a good game. He
did most Of the forward passing for
Delaware. Crothers at center was
better than last year when he was
a substitute for that position. New
ton, a Junior, who worked faith
fully for two seasons on the scrubs,
had his first year on the varsity
and played strong guard game.
The blue and gold had two new
men on the line this year and two
| i'll the backfeld. The new linemen
were E. Wilson who played tackle,
and Smart at right end. Both
played steady game and greatly
strengthened the eleven. Smart
formerly played with the Balti-
more Polytechnic and was especial
ly strong in handling forward
passes. Wilson was captain of the
Wilmington High School team last
wear and made the varsity his first
year in Delaware. .
Probably the two most sensation
al men who have been developed
in years were Fidance at quarter,
and Crawford at full back. FL
dance, although small, demonstrat-
ed that he is one of the best quar-
ters that Delaware has ever had.
He does not seem to have a weak
ness except his size. AS an open
field runner he was a sensation this
year and those who had predicted
that it would be hard for Coach 4
McAvoy to fill Jimmy Huston s /
place at quarter, forgot about Hus- !
ton after the first few games. FL |
dance was as strong on defence as
he was on offense and his general |
ship got Delaware through many a |
tight hole. He has two more years |
at Delaware and should get better
each year. ..-..- ~ .W !
Crawford, the other new back |
field man. had previous football ex-
perience at Lehigh. His playing
was a feature of every game that |
he took part in He was probably |
the most consistent ground gamer
on the team and there are a num-
ber Of close followers Of the blue
and gold who claim that Crawford
is even a better all-around football
player than "Dick" Taylor, which
really means he is one of the best
that Delaware has ever had.
In case all these men return next
season with the exception of Cam
and Grieves, Coach McAvoy will
have more to start with than ever
before. In Loomis, Pepper, O'Dan-
iel, Gray Tom Wilson, Smith,
Myers and several others he has a
bunch of scrubs who will put up a
merry fight for the vacant positions
IN the varsity. Z

frage has been up for discussion
for some years past" he conclud-
ed, "and / suppose that every one
of the, say, fifteen men who have
been responsible for the war in Eu-

suffrage. If the representatives of
the great powers have not been
able to so conduct the fortunes Of

A Terrible Cldmity.

Theodore Hoyer formerly resident of
this city, a graduate from the North
western cOIleged and the State Univer-
sity class of 1912 was a professor in
KagOshima, Japan, the city which was
totally destroyed Monday by a volcanic
eruption, an earthquake and tremendous
tItaI wave and a large area of country in
the vicinity devastated by lava and vol
canic ashes. 1t is reported that 20,0J0
people lost their lives in the terrible
cataclysim. No word has been received
from Prof Hoyer as far as the Leader
has been able to learn, but his friends
hope that he escaped. According to
reports received, it is the greatest clam
ity that has visited any country and peo-
pie for more than century. The Sec
tion visited. was the garden spot of Jap
an and Kagoshima was a beautiful city.
Mrs William Schlueter is sister of
Prof. HOyer. More about the catastrO-
phe appears on another page of this

What Shall We Eat?

Almost every one of us should eat less.
That is a negative statement, yet it
is made very positively. Every individ-
ual has his own convictions upon diet.
His convictions usually reflect his per-
s0nal likes and dislikes, his own taste.
Some are ready to fight over the ques-
tiOn whether the diet OF human beings
should be of vegetable or animal food.
The best study of the structure and
workings of the human body, and com
parsons with carnivOrOus and herbivOr-
GUS animals, indicate that both factions
are right. We should eat both meat
and vegetables.
Probably most Of US need more veg
etables and less meat Meat has been
comparatively cheap in this country and
we've been overriding good thing. The
cooking Of veg getables in America is an
u1appreciated art. In Europe where
meats have been very expensive, cooks
have made vegetable food appetizing,
Not nearly so much fodder" is eaten
by Americans as should be. By 'f0dder"
is meant course food in which there is a
great deal of waste to keep the intestinal
tract in good condition.
Nature didn't provide ready cooked,
predigested, and oyertender foods. AS a
consequence, the intestines are too long
for modern usuages. Without tough
and course food, part Of the tract is
worked less than it was intended to be.
That, together with lessened amount
of physical work, accounts for cOnstipa-
tion which is SO prevalent.
A very wide variety in food stuffs is
valuable. Practically all Of the common
articles of diet are useful. The food
value of fruits, fibre vegetables, sugars
etc. is apt to be underestimated by some
who are striving to avoid waste. A
large amount of "ashes' is necessary to
keep the human machine in good order.
Once more | want to emphasize the
fact that, in general, too much rather
than too little is eaten. The very poor
are more apt to starVe for variety than
for quantity. Partial starvation occurs,
also, amongst the well-to-dO who do not
have their diet well balanced.

The Cost of Advertised Goods

The suggestion is sometimes thought
lessly made that the buyer has to pay
for the cost of advertising. 1t would be
equally reasonable for q small store to
claim because large store employed
more clerks that the patrons of the large
store had to pay an extra price because
of these additional clerks.
Almost any man by persistent adver-
tising, justly proportioned to his busi-
ness, can double his trade. IL he did 50,
it is not likely that his rent, taxes, book
keeping cost. insurance and similar
items would be doubled. Very likely
they might not be increased one-half.
Every article has to be charged some
thing for these general expenses, which
keep running along whether you do
much business or not. Consequently II
a merchant doubles his business and in
grasses his fixed charges less than
half, the amount to be charged to each
article to cover these expenses is much
less; hence instead of advertised goods
costing the public more they cost the
public less.

Departure in Entertainment.

This year Winniger brothers have an
entirely different kind of entertainment.
The Varieties of Musical Comedies have
been arranged to meet a popular demand
and comprise shows that will be undup-
licated in this city at popular prices.
Frank Winniger's company Is composed
of twenty-five people. There is sew
en-piece orchestra of talented musi-
clans. A chorus of singing and dancing
girls is revelation. The shows are all
new. They are laugh producers, still at
the same time they tell genuine stories
and throughout they are punctCated
with enough thrills to make them real
shows. The company is making new
records this season. The local engage
ment opens on Monday Jan. 10.
