COMMUNITY XMAS TREE


The most gressive- aggressive
force for the public good in Middle
town seems to be lodged within the body
of intelligent, earnest won already
well known to local and state fame for
their good wOrks--The New Century
Club.
Here's their latest-a Community
Xmas Tree to be set up in Cochran
Square on Christmas Eve there to re-
main for three days.
The Town Board having creditably
caught something of the modern spirit
of civic betterment, agrees to furnish
the tree and the lights. The School
children white and colored, assisted by
the choirs Of the various churches and
all who can sing, will encircle the tree
with sacred song on the interesting oc-
casion.
The ladies wish it made plain t1at
every one is invited 10 be present and
take part-the whole community.
Rumor says that after much persua-
sion His Highness Santa Claus has
been induced to stop off at Middle
town and appear in full regimentaIs.
Every little boy and girl well knows
that Santa's pockets are big, always
filled with good things, and what's
more, somehow never stay filed longI |
So it is just possible the school children
Of Middletown may have occasion to
bless his coming.
Let the whole town turn out and
make the time and the event notable.
The celebration is useful inasmuch as
it fosters community spirit, and pro-
notes the wider spread of good fellow
ship among all classes-two beneficent
things.

CENTURY CLUBS NEW HOME

The New Century Cub has wisely
concluded that fitting is better than
funeral, and hence are holding their
meetings in the NSt. Anne's Parish
House.
We will not suggest that it requires a
house to fall on some of them to wake
'ern up, but Middletown's business men
and citizens of ample means have ap-
parently been slow to appreciate the
superb work of the New Century Club,
since though the ladies have so energeti-
calIy bestirred themselves as to accumu-
late the neat little nest egg of about
81, 900 towards their building fund, we
fear that they have had little help from
outsiders !
The New Century Club, by long
succession of good works, private and
public, have superbly vindicated their
right to add "a local habitation' to the
name" they have already made.
As one Of them says, '.Now is the
psychological moment e True, and
Middletown owes it to its own reputa-
ton as live town to put its shoulder
without further delay to the wheel of
this public-spirited enterprise.

DUPONT TO BUILD BOULEVARD

Il am ready to build the boulevard
just as soon as the United States Su-
preme Court pronounces the Delaware
law constitutional.
This announcement was made Satur-
day by General T. Coleman dupont
whose efforts to construct the State
wide highway were stopped by litiga-
ton. As a recent decision of the Su-
preme Court merely dismissed the ap-
peal without deciding on the constltu-
tionality of the law passed by the Della
ware Legislature, it is evident that no
effort will be made to resume work un-
til the matter is finally aud definitely
ruled upon. When this will be is pro-
blematical.
This statement Of General dupont
however, to the effect that he will con-
struct the highway if the legality of
of the law is affirmed, shows that he
stands ready to carry out his original
plans if they shall not be interferred
with.
The case was taken to the highest
court in this country on an appeal from
the Superior Court of this State. JehuI
Clendaniel of Sussex County sought to
prevent a condemnation of his lands
for boulevard purposes. The decision
in this State was against him. Then
his lawyers appealed. Before the case
could be decided, however, Mr.. Glen
laniel died and his heirs declined to be
parties to the suit. The Supreme Court
accordingly, dismissed it without inter |
oreting the, law.
In order to get final decision by the I
supreme Court it may be necessary to
institute new suit similar to the Glen
laniel action.
