rule it not inconsistent that husband
and wife be Of diverse citizenship"
Women Will Unravel It.
AS far as changing the laws such
as this one goes. Miss Horan was
certain that something would soon
be accomplished.
"In New York." she said. there is
an organization called the Feminine
Alliance. which has already succeed
ed In influencing Congress to such a
degree that a bill has been intro
duced to change the law. This alli-
ancc. by the way, is made up Of
leading professional and business
men who want to do actual construc-
tive work in the building up Of tho
status Of women In the most ma
terial legal and political sense. In
the United States.
1T is just such foolishly silly and
discriminating laws as these which
make 1t necessary for women to en-
ter strongly into politics and life.
The question of property and money
have made the American wornan's
position such that she must either
be openly stamped as a nonentity or
must have the full privileges, with
adequate laws for her treatment as
an entity.
1T is impossible to say whether or
not men would have let the laws
regarding women stragglc along IN
such an unbalanced, inconsistent
state. for even in this one instance
Of citizenship. ever so many differ
ent conflicting decisions were hand
ed down by the courts before the law
of 1907 was passed. To think that
they could wait all of those years
before deciding about women's citi-
zenship. and then that such an ut
terly medieval and absurd law
should be the result!
But, perhaps. that which did not
effect men personally did not cause
them any worry. II we want things
we'll done we must do them our
selves. This law IL only one OF the
kinks the American women OF to-
day are going to unravei for their

Here It is quoted verbatim, and
Miss Katherine Horan. member of
the District bar, in the following
interview. tells all Of the ins and
outs of 1t, and how 1t will have 10

Sec. 3. That any American wom-
an who marries foreigner shall
take the nationality of her husband.
At the termination of the marital re-
lation she may resume her American
citizenship. If abroad. by registering
as an American citizen within one
states, or by returning to reside in
the United states at the termina-
ton of the marital relation. by con-
unuing to reside therein.
Sec. 1. That any foreign woman
who acquires American citizcnsttp
by marriage to an American shall BE
assumed to retain the same after
the termination of the marital rela-
ton II she continue to reside In the
United States. unless she makes
formal remuneration thereof before

abroad she may retain her citizen

year after the termination of such
marital relation.

in Congress previous to its passage.

other things, of providing the means

MRS. A. S.
Cocoa is a healthful and beneficial
drink. The standard brands are free
from all adulteration and substitution
All diet containing an excess OF highly
sweetened cocoa, or cocoa containing an
excess Of rich cream might cause vari-
Gus digestive disturbances, particularly
in children. AS a general proposition,
however, cocoa should be and is OF a

Oatmeal has a very high nutritive val

Morning Meeting.
Two important committees of the
State Federation of Women's
Clubs, the arts and crafts of which
Miss Mary E. Rich, professor of
education of the Women's College,
is chairman, and the educ cational
committee of which Mrs. William
H. Evans of Newark is chairman,
will hold an open meeting and dis
cussion in Science Hall in the
morning at II o'clock. All inter
ested are invited to this meeting
also, and it is hoped that there
will be large attendance as there
are important matters pertaining
to the college to be discussed.
Chief among these is the loan
fund plan, by which the State Fed
GRAFTON hopes to assist girls
through college. They at present
give an annual scholarship of S100
but it is thought that loan fund
will assist a number of girls and
do a great deal more good. This
is in charge of the educational
committee. Another matter which
Miss Rich is advocating is State
collection Of pictures; 10000 are
desired to be loaned among the
public schools, as a means of pre-
senting geography, history, and
art.
Those attending the morning
session are to go provided with
box luncheon, and coffee and tea
will be served by the home eco
nomics department.
This will afford an opportunity
for those who have not seen
Science Hall to view it's interior.

OLD DORMITORY TO
BECOME COMMONS
Modern Science Building On
Delaware Avenue

DR.. Samuel C. Mitchell, presi-
dent of Delaware College, made
some announcements at chapel
yesterday morning relative to the
disposition of the S50O,000, recent
ly given to the college which was
of special interest to the student
body. DR.. Mitchell explained that
about $4,000 of this amount is to
be used in remodelling the old
dormitory building, to make out of
It large commons for the stu
dent body. It was this announce
ment that was of special interest
to the students and will also be in
teresting to all the old graduates
and other friends of the college.
DR.. Mitchell, in discussing the
matter, however, made it plain that
the historic building is to be pre-
served as far as the exterior ap-
pearances of the structure are con-
cerned. This was the first build
ing erected on the campus more
than half a century ago and al
though it has been added to since
by the addition of wings the orig
inal building still stands and much
sentiment is attached to it on the
part of every one connected with
the institution.
The interior, however, will be
materially changed to fit it for
the present day needs. When COM
pleted it will be building devoted
to the social and moral purposes of
the college. In this building will
be located the reading rooms, rest
ing rooms, Y. M. c. A, literary So
cieties and other social activities
of the student body.
DR.. Mitchell, as we'll as every
one connected with the college, is
elated over this latest gift to the
institution. DR.. Mitchell states
that every department is working
in perfect harmony for the good of
the institution. He further states
that the development of the insti-
tuition is the outgrowth of faith
full work on the part of the alumni,
trustees, faculty and student body
for years past.
Of the remaining S450,000 it is
likely that about S250,000 will be
used for the erection of modern
Science Building. This building
in addition to all the laboratories
will house the agricultural inter-
ests of the college. The location
has practically been decided on. 1t
will be erected near the corner of
Delaware Avenue and Depot Road
at point near where the present
residence of Daniel Stoll is located.
This property was purchased by
the college last summer. While it
is not known exactly when the
work will be started the Supervis-
ing Architect is now preparing
working plans and it is possible
the work will be started this fall.
The remaining 100000 will be
used as an endowment for main
tenance fund.
