LET'S CELEBRATE

The Fourth of July is the time set
apart to declare, celebrate and promul-
gate the day of our national indepen-
dence, when we are called upon to fling
out banners to the breeze, let our pa
triotism bubble over like soap, bubbles
from a clay pipe, our voices resound
with "My Native Country, Thee, "
''Red, White and Blue, . Yankee
Doodle" and ''The Girl Left Behind
Me" When powder and patriotism
will flash forth the Declaration of In
dependence, declaring all men are
created free and equal and entitled to
pursue happiness to the full extent of
their ability in the land of the free and
the home of the brave, where the star
spangled banner in triumph shall wave,
and not one bright star from its con-
stellation can ever be plucked by any
land or nation, for united we stand, and
the band naught can sever, so the flag
of our union must float on forever and
where breathes the foe but falls before
us; so let every reader join in the
chorus, boys and girls, lads and lasses
young men and maidens, patrons and
matrons and aged sires all have most
glorious Fourth-a joyous, happy, boom
ing becoming, frolicking, royal good
time one-long to be remembered, not
with regret because of misconceived
and misused privileges, but of greatest
delight and satisfaction because of pro-
per observation with due consideration
of the rights and privileges of every
true born American citizen.

FAST STABLE

DR.. James C. Mccoy has number of
promising horses on his farm near Kirk
wood. The horses are being trained by
Raymond Snedeker, who will have one
of the stongest stables on the Grand
Circuit and will have an opportunity to
drive two horses. to a two-minute mark,
having both Lord Dewey and Directum
l in his stables.
Lord Dewey, 2.O9 "a, the six-year-old
bay trotting stallion, won three $4,000
stake races last year and total of
S17, 500. He will not race this year, but
will try to lower his record at the farm,
where he will be kept for breeding. His
sire is Admiral Dewey, 2.O4 8-4, and his.
dam, Extasy. I'll, trotting.
Directum I, James Buffers sensational
PAGER, holder of the worlds record over
a haIf-mile track and believed to be the
fastest light-harness horse now in train
ing, will be driven this year by Snedeker.
The horse, a seven-year-old chestnut
pacing stallion, has a record of 2.02 Ia,
made in the fourth heat of a race. The
sire is Directum Kelly, 2.O8 IA, and the
dam is Izetta, 219 1-2. Directum I was
an unbeaten five-year-old PAGER in 1912.
He is entered in several stakes this
season. Expert horsemen expect Di-
rectum to lower his mark this season
to two minutes fiat.
Among the green horses are one
year-old stallion, by Admiral Dewey;
ROxton, two-year-old bay stallion, by
General Watts; a three-year-old bay
flly, by Directum Spier; two-year-old
stallion, by Binvolo; Ethel Gale, five
yeard-old trotting mare, by Barongale;
Chief Cochato, a fve-year-old brown pac-
ing stallion, by Cochato; Andy Binvolo,
a three-year-old bay pacing stallion, by

Dirt Flies on Joint Buildings

Officials in the county Office in the
Old Court House realized Tuesday
morning for the first time that the ac-
tual work of erecting the new building,
which will be the headquarters for sew
eaal of them, at least, has begun in
earnest. This realization was forced
upon the officials by the sound of the
steam shovel, which was heard in the
old building. The shovel began Mon
day morning to excavate earth for the
new county and municipal building.
A site for the steam shovel was exca-
waited Monday and the work hegan in
earnest digging Tuesday morning, with
long string of teams out to haul
away the earth. The excavating is be-
ing made on the French street side of
the site. James Logue the contractor in
charge of the work, says that between
thirty-five and forty teams will be kept
at work on the job, which will have to
be completed in seventy calendar days.

BETTER BABIES CONTEST

The Better Babies Contest is a popu-
lar scientific movement to insure better
Babies and a better race. 1t consists
of entering, examining and awarding
prizes to children of under 8 years old
and over 1 year on exactly the same
basis or principles that are applied to
livestock shows. Mere beauty does
not count. Physical and mental devel-
opment only are considered. The Bet
ter Babies contest insUres a better race
of Americans, because it teaches par
ents how to improve the physical con-
dition of children already born and to
protect those yet unborn. 1t rouses in
terest in the conservation of child life
and health and in all forms of child
welfare. 1t forges a connecting link be-
tween home and the scientific study of
child life. 1t promotes civic interest in
children of the community their
schools and their recreations.
No movement in the march Of pro-
gression in the last decade has met with
such enthusiastic support as the Better
Babies Contests that are held, under
the direction of the Woman's Home
Companion, all over the United States
and no feature in the Delaware State
Fair has been given more consideration
and careful planning than this one. At
a meeting in Wilmington on June 10th
the physicians of the State and the City
were invited to hear Mrs. Anna Steese
Richardson, Director of the Woman's
Home Companion Better Babies Bur

NOT STRONG ON ECONOMY

WHATEVER else may be claimed
w for the Democratic members of
the House of Representatives at Wash
ing, it is not possible to credit them
strong for economy" " The Rivers
and Harbor Appropriation bill, as sent
to the Senate from the House, amount
ed to 500, 529, 475. The year before it
was S51, 118, ,889, and that amount was
looked upon as excessive. In 1875 the
appropriation for this purpose was only
S5, ,21S, 900.
Yet the Democratic national platform
of 1912 deliberately called for economy
in national expenditures, and in the
same paragraph roundly denounced the
"extravagance of recent Republican
Congresses" What will the next Re
publican platform be likely to say about
the matter? -"Erery Eyening."

9 CURGERY is getting to be one of the
- sciences that approach mathemati-
cal exactness and which make fewer
mistakes every year. If the project of
the American College of Surgeons for
the establishment of permanent home
of surgery in Washington is realized,
surgical standards will reach a higher
level in this country than ever before,
and the incentives to the requirement
of surgical skill will be greatly stimu-
lated. In such a work why should not
the Federal Government participate? If
it can create a national board ofhealth,
as it will do in the near future, why
should it not assist in endowing an in
stitution which would have so great and
intimate an influence on surgical work
and surgical standards?

SHALL MAN SLEEP?

THE doctors are debating question
1 on which there is profound differ
ence of opinion, but much greater uni
formity of practice. The issue is, shall
man-the average, healthy, moral per
son-sleep much or little. Some men
have succeeded in getting themselves
into condition where they did not sleep
at all. The result has been an early
death. Man is still akin to the animals
in his physical system, and while we
cannot make accurate comparisons as to
the mental or nervous system, we find
that these go away when deprived of
sleep. 1t is true that individuals vary
as to their need Of sleep, but those who
get along with four hours or less very
soon show the results. The professions
or occupations which turn night into
day have lower average of longevity
than those which set aside from seven
to nine hours for unconscious recupera-
ton. We, at all events, have no desire
for the acquaintance of humanity that
has cured itself of sleep. The prediction
is hardly hazardous that it will at least
be very quarrelsome. Domestic peace
will vanish and we viii be squabbling
about the weather till the vote will be
unanimous to obtain peace by all going
to sleep in the old way.
