Stituton was q secondary considera-
ton.

Mild weather prevailed in Massa-
chusetts and "a heavy vote was re-
ported. Early reports indicated a large
vote in Pennsylvania, where the suffra-

mayorality contest In Philadelphia
added to the interest in the election.

gubernatorial contest in Kentucky and
politicians predicted a vote above
normal.
The election in New Jersey is for six
state senators and an entire lower

was injured last week by being thrown
from his horse while reviewing troops
in the field, returned to London last
evening. He arrived at Buckingham
palace at 1880 o'clock. Altho much IA
tigued by the journey his condition was
officially reported as satisfactory.
The king reached Victoria station by
special train. Great precautions were
taken to insure privacy, the greater
part Of the station being closed.
The public exit was also closed, but
the elaborate nature of the measures
defeated their purpose, as they at
tractedsa large crowd, which lined all
the approaches and cheered when the
kings motor car appeared, followed by
several others containing members of
his suite.
King George : is recovering slowly
from his fall from horse last week.
The following official bulletin was is
sued:
"The king had a better night and
has no fever. Altho tho effects Of the
accident are slowly passing of, his
majesty will be for some time longer
confined to his bed"

London, Nov. 2.-ln official Creek
circles an attitude moro favorable to
the entente allies apparently has been
assumed Reuters correspondent at
Athens telegraphs that simultaneously
with official denials OF reports OF Creek
hostilities to the entente powers came
a change In tone OF the ministerial
press, which Is now publishing articles
in favor of the allies. These articles.
presumably. are inspired.
Notwithstanding the drift OF opinion
1t is maintained that the neutrality OF
Greece will be adhered to as long as
possible.
There are indications that any at
tempt to change in the attitude Of the
government would result in the fall
of the cabinet.

the pupils in every school will be in /
formed regarding the contest, which !
will be held by three disinterested
parties, that is, so far as the spoilers
are concerned. Each spoilers identity
will be known only by a number.
As soon as the children leave the Ma

and an inspection made OF this property.
1t will be a great day for the children,
a great day for education, and one which
will bring deserved commentator for
County Superintendent Cross.
Dr. Cross during the last year held
spelling contests in the county schools
to stimulate good spelling.
The reason the school commissioners
have been invited to the institute is to
give them a better idea Of their duties.
IL is their duty TO keep the schools in
good condition. Each room must be
comfortable in winter, the interior kept
pleasing to the children and the teacher
is TO be paid a living salary, and her
convenience considered.
The books, too, must be in good order
and assistance for the teacher is neces-
sarv to make the school attractive. The
condition of the building, the curtains,
sanitary regulations and the music for
the school all 20 to help a live, wide
awake teacher do the best work Then
again the commissioners must learn
that the time has come for higher
education. This comes through the
county school by consolidation, and then
Delaware's great seat of learning, Della
ware Colleges for boys and girls. County
Superintendent Cross is great advo-
cate of higher education and is continu-
ally working for it.
Doctor Cross has drafted the fol-
lowing creed and resolutions for the
county teachers.
A Teachers Greed.
Il believe in boys andd girls, the
men and women OF a great tomorrow;
that whatsoever the boy soweth the
man shall reap. believe in the curse
of ignorance. in the efficacy of schools,
in the dignity Of teaching. and in the
/ Joy of serving another l believe in
wisdom as revealed in human lives. as
well as in the pages of a printed
book: in lessons taught not so much
by precept as by example, in ability
to work with the hands as wcll as
to think with the head; in everything
that makes life large and lovely.
believe in beauty in the school room,
in the home, in daily life and out of
doors. I believe in laughter, in love,
in all ideals and distant hopes that
lure us on. / believe that every hour
of every day we receive just reward
for all we are and all we do I be-
lieve in the present and its Opportuni-
ties, in the future and its promises
! and in the divine Joy of living. Amen.
My Resolutions.
/ am resolved: TO make the above
my creed; to study it carefully and
frequently until its beauty and its
power grip my life; to dedicate anew
my strength and mind and heart to
the important and beautiful though
difficult. work of my profession: to
make myself more and more worthy

IODAY'S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS

Face powder simply covers up an
unattractive complexion and leaves
no lasting benefits. Those who have
tried a simple spurmax face lotion
find it much better, as it removes
skin discolorations, such as freckles
and tan, and makes the skin smooth,
white and velvety. This lotion is made
by dissolying four ounces of spurmax
in one-half pint hot water, then add
ing two teaspoonfuls glycerin. This
complexion beautifier does not rub
off or show like powder. and gives
a more refined appearance. Il re-
moves both shininess and salloW-
ness. rapidly giving the skin a per-
manent healthy, youthful appearance
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather can be had at trifling ex-
pense by dissolving a teaspoonful OF
canthrox in a cup OF hot water. Pour
slowly on scalp and massage briskly.
This creates a soothing, cooling lather
that dissolves and removes all dand-
ruff. excess oil and dirt. Rinsing
leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft
and plant, while the hair takes on a
glossy richness of natural color also
a fluffiness which makes il seem very
much heavier than It is. After a can
throx shampoo arranging the hair is a
pleasure.
