Miller Brothers not only have
been able to handle the business
formerly belonging to the Me-
harg company in addition to their
own business in lower Market
street, but they have built up the
business at Ninth and King
streets to such proportions that
the present building, as large as
it is, is not big enough to hold IT..
To take care of the growth they
have decided to add two stories
to the present building, thereby
increasing their floor space by ~,
900 square feet.
The thousands of friends OF
Miller Brothers will be delighted
to hear of this proposed extension.
In view of what has occurred
within less than year, many or
| them, no doubt, will not hesitate
to predict that it is merely an in
dication Of bigger and greater
things that will be done by the
Miller Brothers Company as a re-
suit of the business ability OF It's
members.

Splendid Returns From
Jewish Relief Day

Many thousands of dollars for
the relief of Jews in the war
zones of Europe were collected in
Wilmington last Thursday on the
day set aside by President Will
son and Governor Miller. Pledges
amounted to S250,00O. At one
down town office building persons
who stood in line gave $4,000 and
$4,000 came in checks andmoney
orders through the mails. The
sum collected by the many who
stood on the street corners
with tin contribution boxes has
not been announced. A message
was sent to President Wilson by
the local committee thanking him
for proclaiming a Jewish relief
day.

Miller Brothers
Extend Business

Less than a year ago the firm of
Miller Brothers, Wilmington, pur-
chased the big business of the
James Meharg Company, Ninth
and King streets. With the bust
ness went the big building in
which it was housed.
At the time of this acquisition
there were those who did not hes
itate to suggest tina Miller Broth
ers, to use a trite expression of
the street, had "bitten off more
than they could chew" In part
such assertion was based upon
jealousy, and in part by ignorance
of the business ability of the men
composing the Miller Brother
Company.
There were, however, on the
Delmarvia Peninsula thousands
Of persons who had watched the
business course of Miller Broth.
rrs who did not take such a view
of the big business venture. They
predicted that Miller Brothers
would make a success of the un
dertaking. Their view of the mat
ter has found ample vindication.

chance for a self-respecting live
lihood avail themselves of their
opportunity. Many are twice
blind, physically and morally, and
others have far greater defect
in inebriety. The workers for the
blind in the past have attempted
to carry these double detectives
ord raise them to plane above
both defects, in several cases nat
urally failures have resulted, and
some who have proved themselves
amply able to earn double their
living cost, have retired to the
hospitable care of the public or to
be a burden on family or friends.
These cases have been lamented
but their elimination has purged
the industries of the blind of en-
barrassments and left the work to
more deserving and sincere claim,

given by the state, city, and pub

College Women Interest
Themselves In Locsl Problems

Interesting reports were read
at the regular meeting Of the Del
aware Association Of College Wo-
men, held at the Misses Hebbs'
School, Wilmington, last week.
The records of the Association
show an increase of Sd per cent
in the paid membership of the as
sOciation. Two students at the
Women's College have benefited
by the scholarships offered, and
these S t u d e n t s have already
proved themselves a credit to
both the association and the col
lege. The secretary's report
noted a large collection of pic
lures being prepared for the use
of rural schools, resolutions or
child and woman's labor, and ed.
ucational subjects presented at
the last Legislature, and a cata
logue of women properly holders
in Wilmington prepared in the eff
fort to arouse active voting at tn,
local school board elections.
The speaker Of the Afternoon
was Miss Glenn, principal Of tn,
Yorklyn public school. Mis-
Glenn gave the story of the activ
tiles which have developed he
school nito a community center
The talk presented a clearl,
drawn picture Of the little town
It's industry, its social and civi
life and showed in interesting de
tail the relation of the communit
to the school.

Ex-President William H. Taft
in a recent address on "Our For

preparedness for the Uni t e d
States, for navy which would
equal that of the country having
the largest standing army-Ger-
many. The international compli-
cations according to the former
President, have given the United
States a jolt and put US on our

preparedness not for war, but TO

Members of the Del-Mar-Nia
Press Association held their an
nual meeting at the Hotel dupont
last Saturday. "Work together to
develop business throughout the
Peninsula during the whole year,
not at certain periods only" was
the keynote Of the meeting. The
speakers Of the afternoon were &
F. Lord, advertising manager for
the dupont Company, and David
Snellenburg, Of the firm of N.
Snellenburg and Co.
"Developing New Markets by
Advertising" was Mr.. Lords sub
iect. He discussed the evolution
Of advertising as a business force,
mentioning that only about two
generations ago advertising was
used chiefly as a bait for the un-
wary. In the next stage adver-
tiSing had grown to be a recog-
nized factor in every live sales
organization. 1t proved to be the
most powerful and far-reaching
means Of selling through the trade
and also, large enterprises were
developed in which all the selling
was done by advertising; namely
the mail order houses.
"Today we are just entering a
rev epoch in the evolution of ad-
vertising. While using this great
selling force, advertisers have
discovered that it has a value out
side of and beyond the stimula-
tion of trade, and that this by
product as it were, is more valu-
able than all its powers. | refer
to the power of advertising to
create and develop business that
did not exist before-tO open new
fields for commercial activity"
David Snellenburg, in discuss
ing "Delmarvia's Opportunities, "
said:
"Delmarvia's opportunities anc
the opportunities Of our city are
linked so closely that YOU cannot
discuss one without the other. Tt
all intents and purposes our aim!
and opportunities are mutual ant
along the same lines. and on tina
broad basis should be considered
"If it is true that Wilmington
stands at the head of the Delmar
via Peninsula, then Wilmington
ecomes the show window
becomes the show window througl
which the outside world can bes
see this wonderful country-an,
see the wonderful opportunitie
that nature has left there fo
men to develop.
"Now it goes without saying
that the more attractive we maxi
our shows, the truer we reflect tn,
boundless possibilities that have
so long been allowed to lie dor
mant on our Peninsula, the great
er results we must achieve for thu
benefit of all concerned. Th'
farmers. the growers, the packers
should be the ones to furnish tn
goods for the show-the Della
ware press must be the window
dresser-to make the show real
effective and attract the lockers
Publicity must be the agency. W

The Industries of the Blind
During 1915 the work for the
Delaware blind has made pro-
gress in spite Of some discourage
ments. Chief among these has
been falling off of public inter
est and patronage; during the
past holiday season when other
commercial interests were report
inc increased business to the eX-
tent of forty to fifty per cent, the
business of the Blind Shop fell OF
ten per cent. We cannot believe
the public is out of sympathy
with their less fortunate citizens
who with zeal and ambition strive
to rise above their great natural
handicap. But unassuming and
difident the self-respecting blind
retiring in dignified obscurity Go
not protrude themselves upon
the public eye and are put out OF
mind as provided for. Alas, the
last winters job does not provide
this winters need. The mendi,
cant on the corner is ever in the
public eve and reaps his harvest
daily. Can it be that a degenerate
public sympathy lends itself tc
the encouragement of this prosti
tuition of human defects and theiI
exploitation for material gain
The beggar on the street work

VILLA HOPEl3 TO REACH
 HELP NEAR DURANGO

Fl Paso, April 10-In a1is flight from the American cavalry. Francisco Villa is believed today to have passed ParraI and with his band, said to number over 200 men, is reported to be head ing to Durango City.
 Detachments of the Thirteenth cav airy are hard on the bandits trail but no official word has come from the front to indicate their position. NTe1i- can reports stated today that Villa has a full day start on his pursuers. If Villa succeeds. in reaching Durango City he probably will be joined by the forces of the Arrieta, brothers, who command more than ,oO0 men.
 A statement attributed to Mexican Consul Garcia that Villa has now es- capped any possibility of capture by the Americans, and, has crossed a ''dead line" established by President Wilson and General Carranza, beyond which it was agreed that the Ameri- can troops would not follow the ban dit, was hatly denied by MT. Garcias The Mexican consul. said. so far as he knew no limit of the American pursuit had been agreed upon.
 Mexican officials here will not dis cuss a report that the de facto will soon inform the American government that it is a position to relieve the American troops of the task of chasr ing Villa.

He said the aged woman took delight in being about the yard and despite her advanced years, she was able to care for herself. He said when she was an inmate of a sanitarium at West port she had a habit of taking off her shoes and stockings and going about barefooted.

 His Injuries.

James H. Keyser, Jr., is denied workman's Compensation for injuries he received in fall in the elevator shaft in the factory of Gilbert & Ben nett Manufacturing Go. at George town, in a decision made today by Compensation Commissioner E. 1T. Buckingham. Keyser, who was repre- sented by his father, James H. Keyser, operative of a cop winding machine and that he left the machine and got on an elevator to go to the attic to get more cops. While the elevator was in motion toward the attic, Key ser said he noticed his machine was not running properly and he jumped from the elevator to stop it and pre- vent loss. Of material In doing so he claims he fell into the. shaft.
 The company and the operator of the elevator declare that Keyser after jumping off the elevator locked the door, stopped his machine and then attempted to get back on the elevator by catching at the floor of the plat form as it rose above him. He then fell into the shaft. OficiaIs of the company said it is against the rules for machine operatives to leave their machines to get cops, boys being em- p1oyed for that purpose. They also asserted Keyser violated another rule of the factory by climbing on the eIe- yator when it was in motion and at tempting to operate it.
