WONDERFUL
HOW RESINOL
STOPS ITCHING

To those who have endured for
years the itching torments of eczema
or other such skin eruptions, the re-
lief that the first use of Resinol Oint-
ment and ResinOl Soap gives is per-
fectly incredible. After all the suf-
fering they have endured and all the
useless treatments they spent good
money for, they cannot believe any
thing so simple. mild and inexpensive
can stop the itching and burning IN
STANTLY! And they find il still more
wonderful that the improvement is
permanent and that Resinol really
drives away the eruption completely
in a very short time. Perhaps there
is a pleasant surprise like this in store
for you. ResinOl ointment and Res
mol Soap are sold by all druggists.
For trial free. write to Dept. 30-R.

IT'S WELL IT'S DONE

Now that the state board of revenues has granted permission for
the Carson board Of trustees to borrow the money necessary to pay
for the citys part of the paving Of Carson street, it may be well for
those who have so earnestly opposed the plan of improving the street
to look at the bright side of the matter. In the first place the town
of Carson has been in the do1druns for so many years past. that unless
something is done to liven things up it will become worsea and worse It
is not claimed that the paving of a dozen blocks of Carson street will
make tines lively, but it is the first step in that direction. The reason
East t. California, and the stages and emigrant trains couldn't get
we the mountains without passing through here. A few enterprEing
neople saw that here was the best place to build a town for the eaten
ing of the expense money Of the travellers, and some small buildings
were erected for trading purposes. The owners of these trading houses
made money, and NOR came, which created town. At that time
there we're no ranches in Carson valley and the territory surrounding
Carson va as wild as the Indians who roamed the hills. Times got
better. and the timber of the hills found a market at the Comstock
zines which caused a boom at Carson. The road to Lake Tahoe "a
a,wavs here. and it ws the chosen route for the overland stages. The
people here then catered to the overland travel. and they Hourished.
If ue of later times cater to the lew kind of overland travel, w e viii
,,.o flourish. The first step in the direction of catering to them. is
10 show them that we want them to ONE this way. The old street
u,s good enough for the oldtime transfers and stage drivers, because
,here was nothing better know or expected. A paved street in Carson in
of 1915 vas big, but it a nothing to compare with what. it will be in
~. f,.rre and If W e do our share to make it known that Carson is

ENGLAND MUST DO 1T NOW"

That the great world struggle cannot be indefinitely prolonged is
the new indication given by David Lloyd George in the PREDATORY state
ment to a book of mis- speeches, entitled From Terror to Triumph,
In it, it is intmated that Great Britain cal have only three months
mor in which to organize isf forces and resources to maximul eff
cheney. Unless immediate advantage is taken Thereof. then Lloyd Ge-rge
a see n hope for England.
In his statement, the munitions minsterq quoted a "shrewd and sa-
gacdous observer" as telling him that "the course pursued by this country
during the next three months would decide the fate of the war"
BY that time winter will have set n and if the Allies are not then
ready for a n offensive campaign during the winter season, it is apparent
that Lloyd George believes there will be a "souchng into disaster"
While this statement does not mean that Lloyd George sees defeat
ahead, it clearly indicates that he does forsee a inability m the Allies
part to dictate terms of peace

Many Years.

or all the varied and manifold kinds
OF theatrical entertainment negro min
strelsy is the one which is absolutely
native to these states and which could
not have come into existence any
where else in the civilized world.
Here in America alone has the trans
planted African been brought into In
innate contact with the transplanted
European. other nations may have
disputed our claim to the invention OF
the steamboat and the telegraph, but
negro minstrelsy Is as indisputably
due to American inventiveness as the
telephone itself. Here in the United
States Il had its humble beginnings;
here It expanded and fiourished for
many years; from here II was export.
ed to Great Britain. where It estab-
lished itself for many seasons; from
here II made sporadic excursions into
France and into Germany; and here
at last It has fallen into decline and
a degeneracy and decay which seem
to doom II TO a speedy extinction. Its
life was little longer than that
vouchsafed to man. threescore years
and ten, for II was born in the fifth
decade OF the nineteenth century and
in the second decade Of the twen-
tieth II fingers superhuous on the
stage with none to do It reverence.
Time was when the negro minstrels
held possession of three or four thea
ters In the single city Of New York
and when a dozen OF more troupes
were travelling from town to town;
and now they have long ago surren-
dered their last hall IN the metropolis
and only two or three companies wind
their lonely way from theater to thea
ger throughout the United States.

art are reduced to the presentation OF
brief interludes in the all-devouring

wareans. Fifty-three are entered in
the arts and science department. In
addition there are 20 students in a
special short two-year agriculture
course.
In all the departments there is
extensive work being done. Lectures
are given in various parts Of the State;
reading courses are arranged and ether
means are utilized to give an educa-
tion to the person who cannot attend
the college. ''If you can't come to
Delaware College, Delaware College
will come to you." is the slogan Of
this work.
On the experimental farm are scores
Of bloo6ed hogs, Guernsey and other
cows; chickens. horses and other
animals. An average COW. according
to the census, gives about $50 pounds
of butter fat a year. whereas some
Of the experimental farms Guernseys
are giving close to 600 pounds as
two year-olds. A Guernsey bull. the
hesd Of the herd. is valued at many
thousands Of dollars.
On this farm. too, was raised Duke
of Sussex vi. a Berkshire boar. which
sold for $500. Other prize-winning
boafs and sows are in the herd. Ey-
periments with field crops. peach trees
and orchard trees. vegetables and
other products, constantly are under
way. Hundreds of farmers Of the
State benefit by the extension courses
Of this department and by visits to the
farm. On the annual Farmers Day
more than three thousand farmers
from all over the State visit the farm.
Delaware College was chartered in
1893 By Act of the Delaware Legis-
lature. and the doors Of the CO lege
were first opened to students in May
of the following year. The college
had been doing for a quarter of a
century an important work. not only
for Delaware, but as well for neigh
boring parts Of Pennsylvania and
Maryland, when. by Il succession OF
F.isfOrtunes. she was forced in tEe
Spring of 1859 to close her doors.
Eleven years later, in the Spring
Of 1870. the college was resuscitated.
