MERCHANTS, SHOPPERS. BAReAIN DAYS.

+ OR perhaps half century II has been the prac-
tice OF most Wilmington merchants to have
each week 'wo heavy advertising days Tuesday and
Friday, and two heavy shopping days. Wednesday and
Saturday During the other days in the week. in only
too many instances, both the advertising and the
shopping have been permitted drift The inevitable
effect Of that has been 20 lead to unnecessary ex-
pense and congestion. other words with the bulk
OF the shopping crowded INTO two days each week Il
has been necessary for the merchants to maintain dur
ing the entire week trade-handng equipment
which, during at least four Of the days is larger
than the business those days warrants. In other
words, II the trade were equally distributed among
the six days, the same volume Of business might be
handled at much less expease the net profits OF the
merchants would be larger and Of decreased
congestion il would be possible to give better service
and satisfaction to the customers
THE EVENING JOURNAL has thought for a long
time that two-days-a-week shopping system for
city Of this size Is not in keeping with the dignity Of the
metropolis OF the Demarva Peninsula or 10 the inter-
est Of tho many admirable merchants who are in bust
ness he-e. As we have viewed IT, every day should be
bargain day in every store in city. on the score
both Of economy and OF public convenience The old
system had been established long however that we
hesitate to criticize it,
This week, however, have taken an advanced
and practical step in the matter with the co-opera-
uon OF several of large and progressive mer-
chants we have inaugurated movement TO give to
Wilmington shoppers three bargain days week-Wed-
nesdays, Fridays and Saturdays We are confident
that the other merchants viii appreciate the economic
and other bedehs which will arise from such an ex-
tension and relief from congestion and that ultimately
they will decide that every day the week should be
bargain day In ou- city.
Meantime desire 70 to the family Of $4,000
or $4,000 daily readers of THE EVENING JOURNAL

CHANcEILoR crRrIS ApPEAL.

THERE is no man in Delaware who has a warmer
interest in the welfare Of Delaware College than
has the Hon. Charles NJ Curtis, Chancellor Of our
state. There are few men who know than does
he the financial and other needs of that institu
tion When a child he played within the shadow Of
the college When lad. he became student there
and today is Of the distinguished members Of
its alumni In addition, he has served a member
Of the board Of trustees the institution and had
every facility and inclination to familiarize himself
oonseryatvely and sensbly with its affairs. We have
received from the Chancellor the following letter,
which should stir the patriotic impulse of every Della
who is believer in higher education for boys
and girls Both because Of the distinguished writer
and the laudable object he has in view, take pleas
I'm giving it space in our editorial columns:
TO the Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL:
sir:-The slogan for us now should be- DO 1T
NOW FOR DELAWARE COLLEGEi" What does that
mean? Simply that the college right needs money
for endowment to pay the salary of the president
IL should have right now-this month--an executive
head TO plan, shape and coordinate into smoothly
working whole all the present and prospective de-
partments. There are practically four Of them First
the cultural: second, the vocatonal third the agri-
cultural. fourth the Womens College This means
much executive administration independent Of the
number Of students in attendance. There Is fund
for such executive. None of the money received from
the United States Government be used There
Is this year only $4,000 available for unspecifed pur
From this amount the salaries of the president

eratire Of philosophy. &c. the OF light re-
pairs. Of the grounds. wages supplies &C. must
be paid. AS the fund is inadequate now. IL cannot
bear greater burden. IN BRIEF THERE Is NOT
SUFFICIENT REVENUE AVAILABLE FOR THE
SALARY OF A NON-TEACHING PRESIDENT There
fore. the endowment fund must be raised NOW.
II anyone expects 20 help Delaware College let
him DO IT NOWi And NOW means during the month
OF February, A. d.. 1914 A pledge made now may be
made payable in the future. So ] end, as began:
DO 1T NOW FOR DELAWARE COLLEGEi"
Your truly.
CHARLES NJ. CURTIS.
Wilmington, Del, Feb s, 1914
Such appeal coming from such a source and
carrying with It such undeniabe proof Of the fnan-
cial needs Of Delaware College should bring re-
that viii be gratifying to all the friends OF the
institution. Chancellor Curtis has the situation
such plain and concise terms that no one can fail
to understand what IL is. The college needs money
and It needs 1t at It Is clearly duty Of Del
swareans 70 supply it and to create an endowment
fund that will relieve the institution OF financial
embarrassment.

URGE PUBLIC TO
APPRECIATE MUSIC

To the Editor of THE EVENING
: JOURNAL.
Sir: Musicians do not look longing
ly toward our city as an exhilerating
center of appreciation Of their artis-
tic triumphs. This fact, though we
hate to acknowledge it, 1--WE who love
and honor the great tone arD makes
us strive TO concentrate more ap-
preciation Of the best in music.
To be sure, there are only a few of
us, in comparison with the many
devotees of the theatre or Of sports,
but we are earnest. The very fact Of
the success Of the Philadelphia or
chestra concerts show that, and this
winter so far the only uplift of the
kind, together with the fine produc-
ton Of Lucia" at the Playhouse.
But don't think we are content with
these. AS the spring draws near
many pleasures are planned The
first of which is the concert of
Madam Homer on February II. One
Of cur splendid hospitals bring her
here, and we plead for a large appre-
citation.
Madam Homer's golden voice and
beautiful personality, together with
that reputation, second to none as a
great contralto, should make music
lovers and music tolerators keen TO
embrace this opportunity of hearing
her. We plead. not only for her, but
also for the other treats as we'll.
Nicholas Douty, that favorite tenor,
is Coming This month and thnrp are
rumors Of other operate stars later
For all OF these Wilmington needs
to be in the front ranks of apprecia-
ton, which we hope she will give.
Yours truly.

Editorial Opinion
FOR A BETTER HARRINGTON

AON n DE- LEX hARRlNOA AON
From the Harrington journal.
There is no doubt that if Board OF
Trade were organized and properly fin
anced for "A Better Harrington we
could easily interest manufacturers and
other enterprises to come here, which
would be better for every citizen.
w know we have in Harrington
garden spot to live in, but we want
TO be more progressive. You can't stand
still. II is the man behind that keeps
the fellow ahead, keep pushing forward.
Let us ask the Board of Trade ovel
seriously. Harrington is not the town
it was twenty or ten years ago. We are
growing all the time and the amount
of business being done here and our
growth is the cause of our great need
of board Of trade. We know that Har-
rington and vicinity have as great
market products as any place in the
state, which is shown every day by
the many who come here from Whining
ton and buy their vegetables. Ono
merchant states that he averages S25 to
$50 in sales per week to Wilmington
people. Why not increase our output
by telling everybody of the possibilities
of Harrington. A Board of Trade prop
erly conducted would be a great thing
for our town. Let's get together and
organize.
