Sweet cider will be served to all

sample of Americans, not merely a
sample of navy men, not merely a

Americans, and that you have the
point of view of America with regard

What do you think is the lasting
impression those boys down at Vera
Cruz are going to leave? They have
had to use some force, but do you
think that the way they fought is
going to be the most lasting i'm

are those things by which we have
been building up ciyilization-not by
force. And the lasting impression
that those boys are to leave will he
that they exercised self control.
You must bear in mind that you

that you are ready to fight not mere

THE SHORT DAYS

The short days of December and jan
uary are unwelcome. They involve
extra work, and roll up some burden
some light bills. No form of illumina-
ton, can take the place of sunlight. In
factories very thorough lighting systems
may seem about like daylight Yet
there is tonic inspiration in the sum- S
cheerful rays that no artificial light can
supply.
In the dimly lighted rural home, the
housewife blunders about, hampered by
the lamp which she must carry in her
hand. She strains her eyes trying to
finish the days tash of needIework by
fading twilight. In many country
workshops oil lamps are still used.
Time spent cleaning and trimming them
and in dodging shadows is dead factory
loss.
In the northern parts of Europe where
there are not more than five or six
hours light at this time, the latitude
must be distinct business handicap.
Fortunately the United States lies
nearer the sun.
To some people the early dark has
suggestion Of quiet and repose. But to
the majority, longer days will bring a
message Of springtime and dawning
hope.

A BAD HABIT
-


There is habit common among the
young men much more dangerous thar
it appears and which may lead to re.
suits extremely disastrous -the habit Of
borrowing money. It is a habit con-
tracted with great ease and once start
ed there is no knowing where it will
end. A few dollars are borrowed to
please some passing fancy with every
intention of returning the loan in a
short time. But the thoughtlesshess
which caused the purchase of an article
beyond ones means likewise allows the
interval to elapse without any provision
having been made to meet the obligation.
Perhaps half the debt is ready, but
more money is borrowed from another
friend to complete the amount, and so it
continues Indefinitely. Soon a number
of debts are contracted and, however.
small, they tend toburden life and make
it unpleasant and almost invariably.lead
to dishonesty. Young men with small
salaries should by all means avoid the
habit. To do so will necessitate per-
haps many sacrifices, but no dangers
are run in living within ones income.
And, besides, the habits of economy and
learned when the income is
small, will bear fruit in abundance when
it is larger. It is a safe rule in youth
at least to borrow not. ="

FIND CANNON BALL

A cannon ball, over 1O1 years old,
was dug up recently near the Market
street bridge in Lewes canal, by the
Richards Dredging Company, who are
at work digging at Lewes creek. The
ball was found by Lode Wilson, who
was at work near the bridge at the
time, and he at once took it to the post
Office, where it is now on exhibition.
The ball is fourteen and one-half
inches in circumference and weighs
twelve pounds. 1t is covered with
several pieces of shells and was dug
ont of the side of the bank nearest the
town at depth of several feet. The
supposition is that the ball is one that
was fred from the cannons of the Brit
ish battleships during the bombardment
of Lewes in April 1872. Many of the
shots fired at that time fell within a
short distance of the town, several
striking houses near the creek, and it is
thought that the ball struck the bank
and imbedded itself there. The size Of
the ball would also indicate that it is
very old and fired from one of the old
fashioned cannons used in those days.

The Deadest Man


No, the deadest man on earth is not
numbered in Father Times harvest.
Yon cannot find his tombstone in the
cemetery, neither, does a messy mound
mark his lowly bed. His last rest
ing place was on a cracker box in the
grocery store and there he will re-
main dead to everything good, dead to
all activity, dead to friendship and
dead to his home, ties until Gabriel
shall awaken him to a more active
life in a future world. Boys, don't
get stagnant, don't be living corpse,
don't vegitate like any other cabbage
head. Be something. Make every
minute count. Why, 1 would much
rather be first-class corpse, with my
body nurturing the green grass above
me and taking my chances of devel-
oping into the liveliest kind of an an
gel cover there" than to exist in such
a mental fog of stupidity, as if the

worthy of a coffin.

WASTE OF FERTILIZERS

Seventy-five per cent of highly
valuable fertllizing material in the
form of tankage and blood from the
country slaughter of food animals is
being wasted throughout the country
districts.
Tankage, a product of slaughter
houses, consisting of such waste ma
terial as bones, horns, hoofs,
hair ETC., contains a large percentage
of nitrogen and other products used in
commercial fertilizer, and in the larger
packing houses is carefully saved. In
country killing, however, only 2 per
cent Of the tankage and blood are
saved for fertilizer. The nitrogen con-
tent of tankage is said to vary from
o 8 per cent and its phosphoric acid
content between and 12 per cent.
Dried blood is perhaps the richest in
nitrogen of all the organic materials
used in the fertilizing industries. IN
dulterated blood when quite dry con-
ins Is per cent of nitrogen, but as
btained on the market its content
Vsies from to 10 per cent.
fSFom the figures estimated by the
EAFeau of Animal Industry, Depart
nent of Agriculture, as representing
The total slaughter of cattle, calves,
swine, and sheep in the United States
IN 1912, it has been calculated that if
all the materials rendered available by
this slaughter had been saved and
converted into tankage and dried blood
they would have produced 222, 535 tons
pf tankage and 1874 tons of dried
blood.
The introduction of cooperative
ystem among American tanners
hould result in an increased utilization
f blood and tankage for fertilizing
purposes. In Denmark, country XII
ing is being practiced on a co-opera-
five basis in small country abattoirs,
tnd the blood is carefully preserved.

A FARM PAPER

The Delaware Farmer, the first issue
of which appeared at the beginning of
this month, has been established by the
agriculture students of Delaware Col
lege, under the the supervision of the
agricultural faculty of the college, to
supply the long felt need of farm
paper devoted exclusively to important
agricultural problems of the Delaware
Maryland peninsula. The Farmer will
publish the results of such experiments
as have direct bearing upon the farm
practices of the peninsula experiments
conducted by both the Delaware Expert
ment Station and other college expert
ment stations. 1t will also publish ar
ticles bv successful farmers throughout
the state, many of whom have become
specialists in raising one or two crops,
explaining their methods and giving
their ideas of how farming may be most
proftably carried on. Furthermore, it
will devote a section to giving the news
and stating the announcements Of the
various agricultural organizations of
the state, such as The State Corn Grow
ers' Association, the Oranges, and the
Peninsula Horticulture Society. And,
finally, it will conduct department of
''Questions and Answers. This de-
partment will be in charge of the Ex-
pertinent Station force. Farmers who
wish advice on any subject connected
with their farm work are urged to write
to the paper. The establishment of this
paper is in line with the policy of the
Delaware College Experiment Station
and Delaware College as a whole to get
in touch with the people of the state
and give them the benefit of the equip
ment and teaching force of the College.
The paper will be published monthly.

BRIDGE OVER THE DELAWARE

The Camden and Philadelphia Bridge
and Terminal Company, organized to
build a bridge across the Delaware
River at Market street, has just re-
ceived the plan and working drawings
for the structure. The cost of building
is estimated at $1O,OOO,OOO. There
will be a free drive ami fOOtway over
this bridge, and the income to defray
the cost of building and maintenances
is proposed to be derived from the Ter
minal office buildings, under which
there will be facilities for receiving,
storing, importing and exporting ship
ping. 1t is also proposed to build an
archway through the Philadelphia ter
minal so that the elevted road may
pass under it; railroad Accommodations
are also provided so as to make the
transportation of freight as easy as
possible. An estimate made of the in
come from the terminal buildings
amounts to $500, 200, or 18 cents
square foot for space on the Phi iladel-
phia side and Is at Camden.

DELAWARE COLLEGE
EXTENSIVE WORK

4SAAA 1ANrA = y N@AAA
4 AT a recent meeting of the Faculty
of Delaware College a resolution was
passed establishing a college extension
bureau to cooperate with the high
school teachers of the state. The
+ members Of the Faculty, through this
bureau, will be glad to make appoint
ments to talk before the teachers and
/ pupils of any high school of the state
on subjects of general interest, or sub
i jects more definitely related to high
school work. The purpose of this
movement is to give the schools Of
Delaware the benefit of the training
and experience of the teachers of Della
ware College, and it is hoped that the
exchange of ideas will make for the
improvement of educational conditions
throughout the state. Further imfor-
nation may be had by writing to the
President of the College.
INrERsCHOLAsTIC CONTESTS
Plans for an interscholastic athletic
meet for the high schools of Delaware
and neighboring states to be held on
Frazer Field (the athletic field of Della
ware College, some time in the spring
are rapidly being perfected and viii
soon be announced. This meet will
consist of track aud field events, such
as 100 and 22O yard dashes; quar-
mile, half mile, and one mile runs; both
low and high hurdles; shot put; pole
vault; high jump and broad jump and |
perhaps hammer throw. The high |
schools will probably be divided into at
least two classes according to the num-
Der of pupils in attendance. In con-
nectlon with the athletic meet there
will also be held an oratorical contest
for boys and an essay contest for girls.
Pupils from all the high schools of the
state will be eligible to take part in
these contests also. Full details will
be given out later.
PROBLEM FOR HIGH COST OF LIVING
Although city prices for meats and
produce prevail in Newark, the stu
dents of Delaware College who take
their meals at the College Boarding
Club have had to pay no more than 19c
a meal, even during the time between
Thanksgiving and Christmas, when
everything to eat was exceptionally
expensive. And most of the time, the
price of meals has been less than 18c.
This club is a cooperative one run by
5he students themselves under the dir
ecton Of matron appointed by the
College. Since dining hall is also
by the College, the students
lave to pay only for the actual cost of
he food and service. Moreover, the
,act that groceries add such produce as
potatoes can be bought in quantities
md therefore much cheaper, mater
ally lessons the price of meals. The
meals served at the Boarding Club
compare favorably in both quality and
quantity with the meals served by the
lotels and boaring houses in the town,
This Club has made it possible for
many students who might otherwise be
Ienied the advantage of college edu-
alton to get meals to a comparatively
ow price while they are pursuing their
ollege course,

Card of Thanks.

To the good people of the old
Sharon church community, in the
old lst and 9Th districts, who SC
promptly came to our aid in the
recent accidental death of my
husband, Henry Mckee, feel a
debt of gratitude that will re.
quire a lifetime to pay. The
time was short between the acct
dent to my husband and his
death, but the need of sympathy,
love and assistance was great and
the people whom he and | have
loved as neighbors and friends
for years, came at once with all
the aid that human need could
require. God bless our people
for their help in a time of dis
tress but more especially for the
love and sympathy given myself
and family in the darkest hour
of our lives.
