WHO WILL SEE
THE FIRST ROBIN
Children Urged To Send In
Reports

The "first robin" is to be official
ly reported. The advance agent of
spring time has no set schedule.
bird experts say, and his arrival
may be expected at different
dates according to the climate and
geographical location.
For observation purposes, the
recognized bird-protecting organ
ization of America, is offering a
prize for FIRST robin" reports.
This is also done, Secretary Pear
son says, to stimulate general in
terest in birds, part C ularly
among the children. For this rea-
son, the association, at it's head
quarters at 1874 Broadway, New
York, has offered to send free to
every one reporting a real "frst
robin" a beautiful colored picture
of Robin Red Breast. The asso-
citation will also send Cock Robin
ms life history, telling where he
travels, what he eats and how he
builds his nest.
''No bird holds so prominent a
place in the minds of the Ameri-
can people as the robin" Mr..
Pearson said in discussing this
approaching return of the bird to
the north. "It is distinctively
companion of man and wherever
his hand has cleared the wilder
ness the robin has followed. From
Mexico to the Yukon, travellers
meet it and residents will tell
him of it's coming and going. It
has passed into the literature of
the country.
The purpose of having the bird
reported is to keep alive the inter-
est in our bird neighbors, which
we, in our busy days, are likely to
lose. Children of the locality are
invited to send reports to this Of
| fee.

Relief For Belgians
Urgently Needed

The urgent need of relief for
the Belgians is called to the atten-
tion of the people of Delaware in
a statement made by former
Judge David T. Marvel, chairmaa
of the Delaware Commission for
the relief of the Belgians:
"The commission was never so
persistently applied to as at pre-
sent for contributions to help re-
lieve the destitute in Belgium and
Northern France.
"Under these conditions the
commission feels that they must
keep the need of help before the
public. While many have con-
uted, the great mass of people
have not as yet made their contri-
buttons. 1t is hoped that they
will not delay longer, but make
their contributions at once, and
that those who have given, will, if
they feel justified in so doing,
make further contribution.
Immediate help is almost i'm
perative if the lives of these peo-
pie are to be saved. Everyone
knows his own condition best. Let
each give as he conscientious
Let each give as he conscientious
ly feels he can and should. All
contributions should be sent to S,

Mrs. Grantham, chairman of

Miss Esther Ferguson gave a
very interesting report of the
visit of Mr.. Mack and Miss Weav-
er of Wilmington, experts on the
subject of Fairgrounds. AS re-
suit of their inspection of the
Primary School yard, they made
the following suggestions: a
fence along Delaware avenue and
one between the houses on Acad-
emy street and the school yard ;
ground filled in and leveled so it
will drain, screened cinders sug-
gested for filling in.
The school board consented to

their interest in the question bu'
saw no possibility, at the present
time, of being able to employ al
instructor of music.
The second question: "How car
an interest be aroused in read
ing?" was discussed at som,
length. 1t was decided that tn.
children are developing a tast'
for good literature and that tn,
libraries recently obtained are /;
valuable acquisition to the worl

Mrs. HIZes
Visits NeUark
Talks on Suffrage at Opera
House

Mrs. Florence Bayard Hilles,
noted suffrage worker of Whining
ton, visited Newark last Saturday
and spoke in the Opera House at
two thirty. Mrs. Hilles in the
course of her talk met the OBJ
lection that the ignorant vote is
already too large with the state
ment, "There are 50,000,OO0 wo-
men in the United States, Statis-
tics tell us that only 100000 of
these are illiterate. The figures
prove that our girls as a whole,
are better educated than our boys.
Mrs. Hilles also defined the
policy of the congressional
Union" which seeks to work
through the party as whole,
whether it be Democratic or Re-
publican, as contrasted with the
method adopted by the National
Suffrage Party" which seeks to
convert the individual. When one
realizes that the latter policy in
the New York State campaign led
to the necessity of printing litera-
ture in nine different languages,
the loss in time and money is evil
dent.
Mrs. Hilles referred to recent
suffrage play given in New York
by which $4,000 was cleared tc
carry the campaign thruout the
country. The speaker quoted q
dialogue between Mayor Dooless
and Melinda, two of the charact'
ers in the play, in which Melinda
asks the Mayor if the late Mrs
Dooless was not the equal of his
stableboy in intelligence. Dooless
storms against her insult to the
dead until Melinda silences him by
r saying it is he who insults hi:
wife's memory by considering he1
politically inferior to the loves
type of men.
