GOOD ROADS AND DELAWARE.
From the Dover State News.
From the nelmar correspondent OF
a Wilmington newspaper We quote
the following

DO the people Of Delaware real

ventions In Delaware meet and eA-
cept for lot of fiapdOodle looking
toward the securing of the offices
there is nothing said and nothing
done.
Baltimore will. by december l, be
connected with the entire Eastern
shore of Maryland and some OF Della
ware. II all goes to prove that Mary
land and Baltimore are alive to their
opportunities. Maryland people and
Baltimore people see the significance
and the advantages which are COM
ing to both country and town by
auto traffic. The people of Maryland
and Baltimore not only see these ad-
vantages hut they are taking advan-
tage of the advantages.
Two political parties recently met
in this state. Thousands Of words
about schemes TO get the fews offices.
No absence Of elimination and re-
elimination against the other party
which was seeking the Offices. Not
one word of construction. Not one
suggestion toward developing the

roads, not a suggestion as to raising
money to build good roads and make
other needed improvements.
Now do you see what it means
Logically and strategically Whining

measures distance and pad roads Kill
time. Eastern Shore people from
the beginning did their business il
Baltimore because of convenien

The coming Of the automobile

that and provided against it or i

PAINFUL
Injuries Sustained By
Clarence Mcpherson
When A Limb From Tree
Fell On Him

Clarence Mcpherson, residing on the
Gambler road east of the city, was
badly injured Friday evening when a
dead limb fell from tree and struck
him upon the back and left hip. He
was working in the woods near his
home when the limb, having been torn
from the trunk of the tree during a
wind storm some time ago, became
dislodged from the supporting
branches and fell, knocking him to
the ground. His calls brought assis-
tance and be was taken to the house
where a physician from Mt. Vernon
was called. He was later moved to
the Mt Vernon hospital. His injuries
consist of severe sprains of the back
and hip.

LABOR
Made Easier By Ones
Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm In ones work goes SO
far toward making it success that
to an employer it is one Of the great
est qualifications an applicant can
possess. Wise employers and en-
ployees realize that it is to the adyan-
tage of both sides that enthusiasm
should be encouraged in every pos
sible way, and they are coming to re-
alize more than ever that employees
can neither gain nor retain enthusi-
asm for their labor without respect
and confidence in themselves, their
work, and the concern that employs
them.
In former days, when it was consid-
cred undesirable for women to be seen
in offices and stores, there was little
opportunity for women to take any de-
gree of pride in their work, but today
they recognize the dignity attached to
successful work, and this change In.
public opinion has gone far toward in
creasing woman's enthusiasm in busi-
ness.
Enthusiasm is not one-sided ques-
ton. To have the employees highly
interested in their work is equally ad-
yantageous TO both, and the worker
who is not awake to opportunities Of
fered by increasing her interest, or
the employer who does not give every,
assistance toward that end is missing
one Of the strongest rounds on the lad
der Of success.
To insure the best work from en-
ployees, it is necessary to have some-
thing Of a feeling of satisfaction re-
garding the remuneration. Not that
conscientious workers will do their,
best work, however meargerly they are,
paid,just for the very Joy Of doing it.
but the appreciation shown in the
contents of the pay envelope goes very,
far toward increasing the eathusiasnl
which all employers claim is so de-
sirable. Words of appreciation helpl

what prove that they are meant, and
if the contents of the pay envelope are
increased it sometimes relieves a hard
pressure of circumstances that wilR
enable a woman to do better work.,
The knowledge that one is doing a,
work that is contributing, even in ami
infnitesimal way, to the wealth and
happiness of the world, is in ITSELF
enough to furnish a certain amount OF
enthusiasm Adding to this an ap<
preciation of the beauty of efficiency
and a desire for the upbuilding of the!
concern with which one is connected
and without which no one could dos.
work satisfactory either to herself orf
to others, and practical appreciation
from the firm, there would seem to be,
no cause for lack of enthusiasm ini

SCHOOL NOTES

The superintendent of schools from
Chillicothe was visitor in this city
Friday on business.
Friday afternoon the loug-looked for
School May Festival was held at
Riverside park. 1t certainly was a
huge success in every sense of the
word and Mr.. r. A. Chubb, the direc-
tor, deserves great deal of credit for
his untiring and excellent work with
the school children to make it a sue
cess. The chorus work in the cantata
was superb and showed plainly how
well he trained it up to the very min.
ute. About three thousand persons
witnessed this great production. The
order of the children while carrying
out the program was even more than
might be expected, not one whisper
or false movement being made. This
is another point which shows clearly
how hard Mr.. Chubb worked with
them and also reflects a great deal of
credit on him. The old saying" Once
seen, never to be forgotten" could
easily be applied to the School May
Festival this year.

Such Is The Fate Of Charles
Becker
Found Guilty Of Procuring tho
Murder Of ROSenthaL
JURORS TAKE ONLY ONE BALLOT

Counsel For the Accused shocklngly
Disappointed at the Verdict Having
Hoped For Acquittsl or Disagree
ment-corVicted Man. Remanded
For Sentence Next WeeIs-AppesI
Likely to Higher Courts.
New York, May 23.-For the second
time Charles Becker was convicted OF
the murder OF Herman RosenthaI.
The jurors were in absolute agree
ment on their one ballot after only 10
minutes Of actual deliberation.
They could have saved Becker's
life even in finding him guilty il they
had wanted to show mercy. Justice
Seabury had told them they could
choose among three degrees OF muir
der. and two Of these degrees would
have meant imprisonment. Buc they
believed that Jack Rose told the
truth when he said that Becker or
dered. arranged and paid for the as
sassination OF the gambler who was
about to ruin him.
Becker's counsel was shockingly
disappointed at the verdict. They
had hoped for acquittal. They build
ed positively upon disagreement
But they never thought there was a
chance In the world that IL men. az
ter the court Of appeals decision.
would ever send Becker to the chair
Five ballots we're taken before the
jurors we're In agreement as to
conviction for murder in the first de-
gree. This conclusion was not unani-
nous until after a great deal Of argu-
ment in which the credibility Of wit
nesses was weighed.
Mr. Manton believes that he has
strong grounds for asking further
consideration OF the case by the court
Of appeals I'VE shall appeal at
once" he said. THAT goes without
saying. There are ample grounds"
Becker heard of his doom without
displaying any emotion.
Justice Seabury, after brief consid-
Grafton, announced that Becker would
be remanded to the Tombs until May
b, when he would be sentenced.
A reporter who knew Becker said
to him: Lieutenant, I am sorry for
you"
81 am sorry for myself" said Beck
or, but his voice was even and steady.
"Wlll you say anything about the
verdict-about the appeal?" Not a
word"
The deputy sheriffs stepped to his
side and marched him to the entrance
to the passagewaY that connects with
the Tombs AS they reached the
door they slipped handouts around
his wrists 1t was the first time he
had worn them for many months. but
the verdict had changed things.

marched to tde center OF the grounds
and from this point took their respec-
tive places; the Queen upon her
throne, with her attendants upon
either side; the May pole dancers
around their poles and others in
groups about the green.
The chorus numbers of the cantata,
Queen of May, given at the high
school a mouth ago we're rendered by
the pupils Of the seventh and eighth
grades, and the voices so we'll trained
by Mr.. Chubb made sweet melody
the open air. They were accompanied
by the High school orchestra with Mr..
Waiter Wood at the piano. AS the
number, "Oh-ho! and Roguish Elves
Are We" was sung, the brownies
danced around the groups of children
surrounding the May poles; also when
the song of the fairies, "Oh, Dance
We Lightly" was sung the Fairy
Queen followed by her band tripped
lightly around these same groups. AS
the closing number was sung the
Queen was crowned by Master Harold
Weir. Master Robert Ransom was
the crown-bearer
Prof Chubb's excellent training
and that of the teachers was certain
ly in evidence, when, at signal, the
raising of the arms by Mr.. Chubb, all
the little May pole dancers began to
weave in and out around their poles,
twining and INTERVIEWING their ribbons.
The brownies, we'll behaved and or
derly, began their fascinating game of
leap frog, a band nf Robin Hoods
men gave the dance which bears his
name, the ladies in waiting gave
theirs, and Miss Headington's class,
tiny second grade tots, their Virginia
reel. This dance opened by all the
little gentlemen making low bows to
their little ladies and crowning them
with wreaths of flowers.
Imagine the grand stand filed with
the children in white, beneath the
wide-spreading branches of the trees,
the May Queen descending from her
throne followed by her attendants
nineteen hundred children, her loyal
subjects, all in gay costumes, dancing
for her pleasure, and you have pic
ture Of the Childrens Festival in your
mind.
The day was perfect; glorious sun
shine; enough of rain scare TO lend
excitement; enormous crowd; great
enthusiasm; darling well-behaved chill
dren; fetching costumes and colors;
sweet music, and most wonderful of
all, the only May poles that ever
wound up and unwound again without
q tangle!
An event of this sort is calculated
to create in the people greater in.
terest in the public schools. 1t is
calculated to bring to their notice the
breadth of the education of the child
nowadays-the fact that there is more
to learn in the schools than the three
RS; that the teachers are developing
in the children their natural love for
flowers, music and the beautiful of
every sort in nature
For this day Mt, Vernon people must
take off their hats to Mr.. Chubb.
