FARMERS DAY
AT DELAWARE
Features To Appeal To Every
one

Extensive preparations have
been made to make the 1914 Far
mers' Day a success. Instead Of
having the raised seats on the north
side Of the mansion house as here
tofore, the College has purchased
a number Of circus seats which will
be arranged in the shape of a horse
shoe under a tent one hundred and
twenty-five feet long and forty-five
feet wide. By this plan between
thirteen and fourteen hundred
people can be comfortably seated.
By having the tent over the seats,
the guests of the day will be able
to hear the speakers much more dis
tinctly than has heretofore been
possible.
The program Of the day has been
arranged with a great deal Of care.
Every effort has been made to get
the best speakers on their respect
i've subjects in the land. In the
forenoon, the ladies will gather at
1O.45, under the direction Of Dean
Robinson Of the new Women s Col
lege. The Dean will discuss briefly
the proposed work of the college,
giving in detail some of the plans
Of the buildings and of the courses
Of study that have recently been
mapped out. She will then intro
duce Mrs. Foulke Of the Civic Ser
vice Department Of Pennsylvania.
Mrs. FOulke is a niece Of the late
Thomas f. Bayard and also of
Elisha Kent Kane, the explorer.
She is a woman Of national reputa-
ton as a speaker upon civic prob
lens and her address is certain to
be interesting and profitable. 1t is
probable that there will also be a
roundtable discussion Of women s
problems in Delaware, conducted
by Mrs. Foulke, Dean Robinson
and Mrs. A. d. Warner.
Plans have been made for an
other farm tractor demonstration
to be held during the forenoon.
The work with the tractor on the
College Farm has been so satisfac-
tory that one Of the machines which
were at the farm last year has been
secured for another demonstration,
as well as tractor Of entirely diff
ferent type from Syracuse, n. Y.
Both of these tractors will be able
to demonstrate their practicable
ity on farms that are comparatively
level and free from stones, and es-
pecially in orchard work where so
much Of the cultivation must be
done at the same time and during
six months of the year.
Luncheon will be served at noon
very much in the same way as it
was served last year. 1t is hoped,
however, that as many as can, will
bring their lunches with them. Ice
cream will be served to all by the
College.
After lunch, live stock parade
under the management OF the ag-
ricultural students. will be held
thru the tent. This will give all
an opportunity to see the animals
out of doors. which have made some
of the largest records at the Col
lege farm during the past year.
Among the animals to be shown
will be the Holstein COW that has
produced over ten tons of milk
and over nine hundred pounds of
butter and one Of the most valu-
able Guernsey calves III the coun-
try, a calf containing over % per
cent of the blood of the famous
May Rose I'd.
After the parade, the Governor
will introduce DR.. Warren H. Will
son who will discuss some phase of

done it is one Of the best classes,
the average for scholarship being
unusually high.

the Opera House. Liela Herbener
had already been selected as Salu-
tatorian upon her school record in

remaining seventeen graduates
five were selected as follows:

FRIGHTENED AWAY,

Surrey, N. d., May 1z.-Evidence
was found by the station agent of the
Great Northern depot which indicates
that yeggs were intent upon robbing
the station when frightened away
from the work, without succeeding in
their mission.
The cash drawer in the Office was
found gaping wide open, whecked ev-
identity by a crowbar found lying
nearby. The money in the drawer,
amounting to about $50, was intact.
and nothing else is known to, have
been taken. - :,
Under the stove in the front Office
the agent found heavy calibre ri
fe and a bulldog revolver, probably
left by the thieves in their precipi-
tate departure.
Judging from the evidence, some
noise. perhaps that of the cash draw
er breaking, frightened the yeggs
from their unfinished job Several
bands of tramps are known to be
camping near the town in the jun
giles along the tracks. and it is sup
posed that some of these had at
tempted the robbery.

THEN = AND = NOW

One hundred and eighteen years ago
today the worlds first vaccination by
a physician was performed. On that
day DR.. Edward Jenner, an English
doctor, who had devoted 80 years to
studying the subject. drew lymph
from the hand of Sarah Newles, u
.milkmaid who had contracted small
pox while milking cows. He applied
it to the arm of an eight-year old
boy. named James Philips. 1t was
the beginning of the conquest of small
pox. At that time smallpox was
causing one-tcnth of all the deaths Of
the human race. 1t had destroyed or
disfigurcd more than fourth Of man
kind. 1t killed more than 5O,OOO,-
900 Europeans during the eighteenth
century. The absence Of pock- marks
in those days was means Of idemti-,
fication. The London police depart
ment issued the following description
of criminal sought in the seven
teenth century: "Thomas Bayly,
short, burly man, fair and fresh col
ored, without pock-marks -
Before the discovery of vaccination,
smallpox was as prevalent as bron-
chitis is today. & 4 half century be-
fore Jenner gave his discovery to the
world, the dread disease wiped out
70 per cent of Grecnland's population
in single year. The Spanish explor-
ers carried it to the New World, and
three years after Cortez had landed
in Mexico, over 3,5OO,OoO natives had
fallen victims to the scourge. More
North American Indians fell before its
invasion than fell before the white
mans gum. Their number is cstimat~
I'd as high as 100000.

The final Eighth grade examina

the Eighth grade pupils in these are
deprived of the opportunity i.t0 take

take them in some other school. Ar.
rangements have been made with the
teachers to have these examinations
in the following schools: Menoken

There may be few more schools
added to the above named, but this

should give an opportunity to all
Eighth grade pupils to find place
within reach where they may take

Patterson Last Night.

"They all lock alike to me- said
Captain Downing of the police force,
last night as he halted Police Com.
missioner Patterson as he was turn
ing the corner the wrong way at
Main and Fifth streets.
"YOu are under arrest" said the
Captain, but l will release you till
8 o'clock tomorrow morning, ii you
will promise to appear in police court
at that time and pay your fine.'
All right, I'll do it, said the police
commissioner, and the sport was over
till court convenyes this morning.
There has never been any obser-
vance of the rules of turning corners
in the capital city till recently, when
the city commission passed 4 very
rigid ordinance in this respect. The
order was given by Mr. Patterson
the ordinance should be enforced jr
respective of person.
1t Sc happened that last evening as
Captain Downing was standing before
Mr.. Patterson's hotel, the first man to
wheel the wrong way was the police
commissioner himself. It is consider
ed a good joke by all, and Mr.. Patter-
son will undoubtedly have coed au-
dience this morning when he appears,
pleads and pays his fine. But +. G is

! Today vaccination has made small
pOx negligible factor in the list of
human ills. 1t has practically driven
it out of existence as a scOurgc Of
nations. Backed by the authority Of
law in many countries, medical science
has inoculated the civilized races and
made pOck-marked face a rarity to-
day. Before .Jcnner discovered vac
cination, England reported smallpox
cases at the rate Of 1000 to every mil
lion inhabitants. Today the. vaccine
point has reduced the rate to 20 to
each million. Universal vaccination lis
compulsory in Germany and the rate
has fallen to less than two to a mil
lion. 1t is rated at one case in mil.
lion people in Sweden today. Know.
ing that the dread disease has killed
more people than have bullets and
famine combined, most of the worlds
governments compel its people to be
vaccinated. All United States soldiers
and sailors pass. through the expert
cnce. All immigrants landing on our
shores must be inoculated. Many
states have laws that order its school
children to be vaccinated. Persons
who have not undergone the opera
ton in Norway are denied the privi-
legc of voting at any election. Both
bride and groom in Norway and Swe-
den must certify that they have been
inoculated before the minister will
join them in wedlOck. Every child
born in Germany must be vaccinated
in its first year of life and again
twelve years later.
