wards Idea of Subject
CHANGE DATE OF
THE CORN SHOW

Last nights meeting OF Diamond
state Grange was Halloween meet
ing and those not present missed a de
liEhtful evening One OF the chief
features of business was the discus
sion concerning the resolution regard
ing the economic and social investiga-
tion to be made by the government
into rural life. At a previous meet
ing the following resolution was
adopted Resolved. that the secretary
of Pomona Grange Of New Castle
county be instructed 10 write Profess
sor Harry Hayward and ask the in
tent and scope OF the proposed in
quiry to be made by the Federal Gov
ernment of the rural church, scho8
and home life of the people OF Della
ware. and a copy Of his answer to be
sent TO each subordinate grange in the
county for discussion. each grange to
report at the next session of Pomona"
Professor 1ayward's answer 70 this
resolution was read at last nights
meeting after which it was decided by
the grangers present that the resolu-
ton was unnecessary as all agreed
with the plan outlined by Professor
Hayward. though it was thought that
il would take time to show any re-
suits gained from the investigation.
Concerning the request received not
long ago from the Fair Association
that the oranges send in the topics
OF any lectures which they thought
might prove OF interest in connection
with a proposed course Of lectures to
be given next year at the Delaware
State Fair. the following three ques-
tions we're prepared by Diamond state
Grange and ordered sent to the Fair
Association as being especially inter-
esting topics for lectures. The topics
suggested had TO do with cooperative
buying and selling good roads and
the best methods of keeping in repair
and as to whether or not Il would
be advisable to have the automobile
tax used for road purposes.
Announcement was made that the
date Of the corn show has been
( changed from Novemer % to Decem-
Der 6. The change of date was made
owing to a conflict with the date Of
the supper al Red Clay Greek
