NON-ATTENDANCE IN SCHOOLS

DR.. Charles A. Wagner, state com
missioner of education, in his recent ad-
dress at the New Century Club building
said that the state of Delaware outside
of the city of Wilmington is expending
annually $96, 800 for education for which
it is getting absolutely no returns, and
that the most appalling educational
problem is that of non-attendance. In
some parts of the state where the
schools are open ten months pupils at
tend but little over five. The result is
a distinct economic loss to the state as
well as a low educational standard for
the individual and the community.
DR.. Wagner is conducting acampaign
of education among the parents and has
spoken before about twelve thousand
people upon the subject. He has pre-
sented it from the standpoint of the
personal efficiency Of our future citizens
and also as a plain business proposition.
Many parents fail to realize the import
ance Of regular attendance, and do not
understand that days absence each
week really means two, because the
pupil is rarely prepared with his work
after he has been out day. In many
parts Of the lower counties boys and
girls leave early to go to work, SO that
with prospect Of a short term, the ne
cessity of regular attendance while they
are not employed is all the more urgent.
DR.. Wagner said that he is pleased to
note signs of an educational renaissance
in Delaware. AS a result of his efforts,
parent-teachers' associations are being
formed in many places, and the general
problems of education and the specific
needs of the individual localities are be-
ing discussed as never before. He asked
the Wilmington teachers to help forward
the movement in every possible way, in
order to bring the educational standards
of the entire state to higher level.

PIGS EYE RESTORES SIGHT

BALTIMORE, Md, March 29-Sight
has been given to the left eye of David
Kane, nine months old child Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Herman Kane, Of Gettysburg, Pa,
through the grating of the cornea of a
pigs eye to the child's eye ball, accord
ing to a statement of physicians at a
hospital here. Certain tests, they de-
clare, have brought out this fact with
out doubt.
When the bandage was removed from
the eye it was declared the child follow
ed the course of lighted candle which
was moved in front Of him. Another
test that brings out the fact more
clearly is that the child now winks his
eyelid if a finger or a small object is
waved close to the eye. The movement
of the eyelid is the natural one.
The disease from which little David
has been a sufferer since he was three
weeks old is know as staphyloma of the
cornea. Both eyes became affected and
the child was practically blind. Sight
was partially restored to the right eye,
however, after treatment. The left
seemed to be in a hopeless condition and
it was only as last resort that the op-
Grafton was decided upon.
The operation was performed last
Monday and the cornea Of the pigs eye
was used because tits said it more close
ly resembles the human cornea than
that Of any other animal.
Child and pig were placed under ar
anesthetic and the outer covering Of the
animals eye was removed. 1t wa:
quickly placed on the eyeball Of the
child.
The child's eye to-day is said to b
perfectly clear and from free infiam
nation.

PREPARATION FOR THE CROP

According to Prof. Gramtham of the
Agronomy Department Of Delaware
College much of the seed corn
saved last fall is likely to be of low
termination owing to the severe freez-
ing weather of last winter. This
condition will apply particularly to
seed corn that was not fully dried out
before the cold werther came. He
says, all seed corn should be tested to
determine its state Of vitality. A few
kernels taken at random from several
ears of the lot Of seed corn should be
sprouted. If 95 per cent of the ker-
nels are strong and vigorous, no fur
ther testing will be. necessary. If,
however, the termination falls below
96 per cent. each individual seed ear
should be tested. Directions for test
ing a large number of seed ears will
be furnished by the Agronomy Depart
ment upon request. Inquiries from
many parts of the State indicate that
there is a considerable demand for seed
corn. 1t is suggested that those grow
ers who have seed corn for sale should
write to the department stating the
kind Of corn and the quantity they
have for sale. This will enable the
owners of good seed corn to come in
touch with those looking for good seed.
The department is often at loss to
know where to locate supplies Of seed
corn in the State and will gladly coop
crate with growers in effecting the dis
tribution of seed Of good quality.
Seed corn should preferably be pur-
chased in the ear. Examination as to
type and characteristics of the variety
can then be made more satisfactorily.
Corn in the ear may also be tested
more accurately than shelled grain.
Do not purchase seed corn from To-
cality too remote. Seed from 100 miles
farther north or south is not so likely
to produce as we'll as corn grown on
the Peninsula. If tits desired to grow
a new variety from distance begin in
small way but do not depend on it for
the entire crop.

DELAWARE COLLEGE
oRATnRICAL CONTEST

The Delaware College EXtensio or
Committee will send next week the
following letter to every high school
in the state.
Dear Sir:
AS means of getting better ac-
quainted with the high schools of the
state, and Of bringing the high schools
and Delaware College closer together,
the College Extension Committee has
arranged an Essay and Oratorical Con-
test to be held each year in connection
with the Field Day Meet. The Essay
Contest is for girls and the Oratorical
Contest is for boys. These contests
will be held this year on Friday even
ing, May Is, 1914, in the Oratory OF
Delaware College. All the high schools
in Delaware are eligible to take part in
them.
1t is planned to hold a preliminary
contest in each county at place to be
designated by The Committee and your
County Superintendent, and the details
of the contest win be under their super
vision. To these preliminary contests,
each high school is entitled to send two
contestants for the Essay Contest and
two for the Oratorical Contest. The
method of selecting the contestants is
left entirely to the officials of each high
school. In these preliminaries one girl
and one boy will be chosen as represen-
tatives Of each county in the finals at
Delaware College. Also, two alter
mates, one for each contest, will be de-
signated, Thus, in the finals, each
county will be represented by one
contestant for each of the two prizes
offered by the Trustees Of Delaware
College. These prizes, each $25, in
gold, will be awarded to the girl read
ing the best essay and to the boy deliv-
ering the best Grafton on that evening
Of May Is.
VIII you kindly take up this matter
with your high school, and as soon as
convenient let US know whether your
pupils will enter these contests.

pear for the finals will be furnished ac-
commodations during their stay in
Newark.
Further information will be gladly
furnished upon request.
Very truly yours,

A Good Name Could Not Save Him

John A. Logan, of Elgin, was the United So
cieties' candidate for Congress in the Eleventh dis
trict at the last election. His platform contained the
following:
Treason to American ideals turks behind the Christian ram
parts of Prohibition. We must not allow the fad of Prohibi-
ton to gain such a control of the public sentiment in our coun-
try as to lead to a relaxation of the laws making all men free
and equal.
The Republican candidate for Congress is openly dry. The
Progressive candidate for Congress is pledged by his party plat
form to woman suffrage, which is only another name for Pro-
hbition.
stand for all high-minded, liberal citizens and stand in the
open, without fear or favor, and I ask the vote of every man
that feels as do.
To the credit of the Eleventh district be it said
that Mr.. Logan emerged from the contest a poor
third, running behind the Progressive candidate, who
was pledged to woman's suffrage, and still further
behind the Republican candidate, who was openly
dry"
Even Mr.. Logan's good name could not save him.

THE AMERICAN ISSUE
November Is, 1914.

Here is an appeal that ought to go straight to the
heart of every father and mother. Give them a
chance and they will make good on their merits"
And how are these boys to be given a chance?
The usual answer is. Take them out of their present
environment, give them decent homes, and find for
them useful employment"
This is good SO far as it goes. If, as Judge Scully
asserts, IS per cent OF these boys are the victims of
the conditions into which they are born, there can be
no doubt that to remove them to wholesome sur
~roundings will save most of them.
But the question naturally arises. Why not
change the conditions themselves? We may rescue
ten thousand boys every year from a bad environ
ment, but if the bad environment is left untouched,
their places will be promptly filled by other boys, and
the evil will 60 on forever.
No doubt, rescue work for youthful offenders is
better than the reform school, just as the reform
school is UNNECESSARILY better than the jail or peni-
tertiary. But the only permanent remedy is to cure
the bad conditions by removing their chief cause,
which is the dramshop, for who can doubt that if
there were no saloons, there would be fewer "homes
of drunkenness" and fewer situations following df-
vorce?"
The best way, then, to save our little homeless
brothers is to cut the tap-root of drunkenness and d-
vorce-the saloon.

Ohio Defeat Foretells Victory
Editorial by John F. Cunneen.

While the Anti-Saloon forces met defeat in the
great battle in Ohio November 3, the defeat really
spells victory for the dry forces.
Outside of the cities of Cleveland and Cincinnati
the drys pol1ed a great majority of the votes cast. In
Cincinnati the liquor traffic rolled up a majority of
10000 for the brewers home rule amendment and a
majority of $4,000 against statewide Prohibition. In
Cleveland the brewers amendment had a majority of
10000 and the Prohibition amendment was defeated
by $4,000.
The brewers amendment would have been de-
feated had it not been for the enormous majority cast
in favor of it in Cincinnati alone. As Cincinanti has
less than 100000 population, it looks as though an
enormous fraudulent vote was counted there to save
the brewers.
In brief, the Prohibition amendment was defeated
in Ohio by about 100000 majority, whereas the brew
ers' so-called home rule amendment was adopted by
scarcely 10000 majority, although Cincinnati alone
reported 10000 majority in favor of it.
The liquor interests brought on the fight at a
time when they were well prepared for it and when
the temperance forces were at a disadvantage. An
other fight in Ohio-and there will surely be another
fght-will undoubtedly reverse the verdict OF No
vember 3 and put Ohio where she rightful1y belongs,
in the dry column.

Saving the Boys in the Street

In a recent address before the Irish Fellowship
Club Of Chicago, Thomas F. Scully, judge of the boys
court, said:
The boys of the street come from homes of
drunkenness and poverty, and most of all from
situations following divorce. All that most of
these boys need is a word of friendliness; give
them a chance and they will make good on their
merits.

COTTON MARKET.

New York. Nov 4.---Members OF
the cotton exchange at meeting here
today agreed to ballot for the liquida-
ton of straddle accounts down to
isle for December contracts. Not
long ago local traders refused to con-
slider a lower price than SC for De-
eember as basis for liquidation, but
Liverpool has marked the price OF
January February down to 4.25c and
today's action was considered an orr
fer to compromise recent disputes II
was rumored that December contracts
were selling on the curb here at 1.5z
to 7.55c, and local traders believe that
prevailing trade conditions no longer
warrant the difference of $50 points
between Liverpool and New York as
fixed by the international conference
toward the end of last summer.
Otherwise there was no fresh develop
ment in the contract situation and the
news from the south indicated con-
tinued steady spot markets with
prices generally unchanged to nc
higher. Exports for the day we're
only 1874 bales and some appre-
hended that the advance In war risks
may again check business, but cotton
is now moving on very nearly nor
NAL scale, and offerings from Texas
are fully cent higher than they
we're two weeks ago. Today's port re-
eeipts were 66.502 bales, Stock at al
the United States ports, S03,340 bales;
interior receipts, 42,752 bales.

FOREIGN DEMAND

New Years Day and Calls

Chicago, Nov 4.-Record- breaking
sales to export houses broue Mt about
a strong market today in wheat af-
ter a temporary break at the start.
The close was buoyant at u C net adj
vance. Corn finished 1@1h to IN
@1Ac up, and oats with gain of u
on to &c. In provisions the out
come varied from sc decline to rise
of 22he.
II was estimated that foreigners to-
day bought fully 100000 bushels OF
wheat. The difficulty appeared to be
fine sellers. for there were plenty u
predictions that contracts would prove
hard to fill, especially so In regard to
nearby shipments. According to gem
orally accepted figures. more than
50,O00,O00 bushels have been puf-
chased to clear from the United States
by January l. Nevertheless, cash ana
export houses here were continually
on the alert today for spot wheat or
December delivery. and appeared to
give little heed to any question OF
price.

European visible supply caused the
brief setback that took place early IN
wheat. The transatlantic crop sum-
mary was also favorable. The effect.
however, quickly wore away, frost re-
ports from Argentina helping almost
Immediately to turn the market up
grade.
Corn and oats as we'll as wheat,
were governed chiefly by the export
demand. Europeans bought 100000
bushels OF corn here and 1t was SAID
that more than 100000 bushels had
been similarly disposed of within the
last week, cleaning up the Chicago
stock and considerable new corn now
in transit. Exporters today took Il
600, 900 to 100000 bushels of oats.
venturesome bears found themselves
in a pinch when they tried to cover.
Provisions hardened noticeably as
result of renewed fear that the Chi
cago stock yards would be closed on
account of increased peril OF the
