AS WE SEE III.

Big and enduring prosperity for
the United States is on the way.
Its with us now in spots. We call
to witness the biggest wheat crop
IN ten year and the huge orders for
war materials and supplies, motor
trucks, army blankets, harness,
leather goods, horses, mules, food, g,
feed stuff, etc. At the outbreak of
the war wheat sold for IS cents per
bushel. 1t soon jumped to S165.
The rise of one dollar when applied
to the crop which the country had
for export means three hundred
millions of dollars added to- the
nations wealth. So much for the
boom in war exports. 1t will end
with the close of the war.
But we also have q permanent
prop for our edifce of prosperity,
namely, that Uncle Sam is now
learning to make for himself and
the world what he and the world
formerly bought from Europe.
This is no pipe dream. To il
lustrate,. take cotton. Uncle Sam
grows two-thirds of the cotton Of
the world. Formerly, from force
Of habit, he shipped most of it to
Europe in the raw state and then
bought it back from England,
France and Belgium in the shape
of mercerized underwear and cost
ly laces, Now it SO happens that
the arena Of war is set in the lace
making districts Of France and
Belgium with the result that the
whole industry has been wiped out.
Uncle Sam must have laces. If
he can't buy them, he must make
them. That's why our whilom lace
importers are now making French
and Belgian laces in the factories
of New York and New Jersey and
why, for similar reasons, nine new
cotton mills of large capacity were
opened throughout the South,
within sixty days after hostilities
in Europe opened.
The same is true of medicines,
chemicals. dyes, perfumes, gloves,
pottery, Photographic sundrles and
supplies, cork, toys snd many other
necessary articles.
With prosperity just around the
corner, the only question OF real
moment now is the renewal of your
subscription to The Chronicle or
the placing of an order with us for
stationery. We have new line OF
paper stock and want your order.

The man who uses quart of
beer daily expends enough for it to
buy three loaves of bread for his
family. He gets for himself a
trivial amount of nourishment
worth half cent and incidentally
takes into his system nearly two
ounces of poison, the influence of
which is to make him less alert and
therefore more amenable to acci-
dents, to make him less efficient
and therefore more likely to lose
his job, and to make him more
likely to suffer from toxins and in
fections. DR.. Winfield Scott Hall.

Delaware Gets Half Million Dollars

At meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Board of Trustees of
Delaware College, held at the home of
Henry b. Thompson, president of the
board, at Greenville, Oct. 22, a most
pleasing announcement was made. 1t
was one that conveyed assurance of
successful and eminently useful career
for the college. for all time to come.
This announcement was of a gift to
the college, from an anonymous source
of half-million dollars.
Of his large sum, 100000 will be
applied to new buildings. The remain
ing 100000 will be set aside as an
endowment fund.
The executive committee accepted
this muniticent gift, subject to the
wishes fthe Board OF Trustees. The
board will act upon the generous prof
fer at a meeting to be held at the col
lege, in Newark. on November 30.
The committee on buildings of the
Board of Trustees has been in con-
ference with Day & Carter, architects,
in reference to the new structures to
be provided out Of this gift of money.
Frank Miles Day of this firm is the
architect who has been in charge of
the preliminary plans and arrange
ments as contemplated by the recent
large purchases of property in New
ark adjacent to the nresent college
grounds. The first building to be
erected will be for the Agricultural
ard Scientific Department, with COM
plete arrangements for laboratory and
teaching work.
An important matter in connection
with this munificent gift of half
million dollars to the college is that
the contemplated extensions will not
impose a dollar of additional expense
upon the State of Delaware for main
tenance. The revenue from the en-
dowment fund of 100000 will amply
provide for all expenses Of this char
acter.
The building fund of $500 900 will
be sufficient to add generously to the
Instructive capacity of the college.
A committee has been appointed to
~resent to the next meeting of the
Board Of Trustees a report on the
question of the future of fraternity
houses at Delaware College. The
contemplated extensions. it is expect
ed, will make it necessary to provide
arrangements for fraternity houses
different from. those that have long
prevailed.

DELAY ACCEPTANCE
OF NATIONAL ROAD

To discuss what action to take on
the acceptance Of the National road
east. a $4,000 Improvement contract
held by Sisk, Sprinkle and Level, the
county commissioners held a called
session today.
Ill-luck has pursued the contracting
firm through all it's recent contracts
and difficulties may arise over the &C
ceptance of the road. 1t may never
be accepted in its present condition
and the contractors will suffer another
loss in restoring it to acceptable con-
dition, the commissioners said.
A fence where the road passes the
driving park was viewed this after
noon after the session at the court
house. r>-
