amount of money it will be neces-
sary to borrow to pay off the re-
naming indebtedness on the two
buildings which have been erect
ed near Claymont, and which are
ready for occupancy. The men,
bers of the w. C. T. U. througout
the State have long been interest
ed in the work of the School, and
have furnished about 80 of the
bed rooms in the new buildings.
In addition to $4,000 which the
State appropriates annually for
the maintenance of the School, the
Levy Court of New Castle County
pays forty cents per diem f r each
girl committed to the School from
said County. Owing to a condi-
tion of financial distress that
seems to affect the county as we'll
as the State, the Levy Court has
been unable to meet this obliga-
ton for the last three months, and
consequently owes the School
about $1,50O.
The Managers, therefore, find
themselves in the embarrassing
position of having a deficit in the
maintenance fund of the School,
Just at the time when even more
than the usual income is required
to remove the institution to the
country. During the twenty-five
years of it's existence, this work
has not been brought before the
public to obtain a general sub
! scription; there have been no
fairs, no entertainments, no cam
paign; and the Board of Manag-
ers have relied upon the ability OF
the State to maintain it. There
have been a few people, however
sufficiently interested in the work
to subscribe annually to it's sup
port. In view of these circum
stances, will not all loyal citizens
of the State assist in carrying OF
the work of this institution? You
interest and cooperation arr
needed to complete the project o.
giving to many young girls
larger, better and healthier life il
the country. The full list of thu
officers and managers of "Th'
Delaware Industrial School fol

all subscriptions or donations will
be gratefully received.

who will give us counsel and reproof

To Chase Bandits
Oklahoma Sheriffs Profting by
the Example of the More
Progressive Crooks.

OKLAHOMA CITY. Dec. 12-Armored
automobiles arc being made now for
the use os officers In Oklahoma who
chase bandits. The increase of bank
robberies Is responsible for It.. Two
autos are now being armored in this
city and three are already in use. Steel
bodies are made for ordinary cars and
placed on the chassis. The tires are
solid rubber. so that bullets will not
puncture them. Inside the wind shield
is a heavy steel plate that may be
raised or lowered.
Sheriff Binion will put one of the cars
into use as soon as tho new body is
completed. The others will be distrib-
uted around over the State for pursuit
of bank and train robbers.
Many of the bank robbers have quit
using horses; they are too slow in these
days of automobiles. Three of the re-
cent bank robbories were committed by
men who used automobiles, and several
others had automobiles hidden in the
country. They rode into town on horse
back, robbed the bank and then rode
the horses back to the automobiles. in
which they lied, leaving their pursuers
far behind.
Once they get into the Usage Hills or
the Kiamichi Mountains they cannot be
followed in automobiles.
