FIFTY YEARS

This issue of the Marietta Jour
nal, the smallest in some time, is
the last issue for the year of 1915
and 1916 is the fiftieth year that
the paper has been published. We
are not in the habit of throwing
boquets at ourselves or bricks at
others and that has been the policy
of the paper for fifty years. 1t is
policy that will be continued. We
have little to say about the past for
the old paper is so well known that
it would not be permissible as in
formation. For the future we feel
that we can continue the policy of
the paper and with a better equip
ped plant than ever we hope to
make the paper better
The issue this week is small be-
cause the Editor, Mrs Annie l..
Carter, has been sick in bed for sew
eral days. The linotype operator
is taking a weeks vacation out of
town and two of the other boys
have been off four days. Therefore
we just got up little matter and
published these four pages in order
to comply with the requirements of
publishing the legal advertisements
Everything of any Importance that
we know of has been covered how
ever.
We want to add, of course, our
sincere thanks for the liberal pat
ronage of the people. Our circula-
tion list is not the largest in cap
tivity but we do get the dollar we
charge for the paper out of practi-
cally every name on the list. We
don't have to give it away and for
that reason we are able to continue
the subscription price at $1.00. A
great many papers think that they
have TO carry a large list of sub
scribers but we find that adver-
tisers are much more willing to buy
space in paper that people pay for,
and of course, read.
We also thank our advertisers
for their liberal patronage.
Wishing all our subscribers and
advertisers a prosperous and happy
New Year, and hoping to merit
your continued patronage, we are,
Yours very truly,

MORE APPLICANTS
THAN LAST YEAR
Report From Women S
College

Applications for entrance to
the Women's College of Delaware
are being received at the office of
the Dean, and although no definite
figures have been stated, it was
announced today that more appli-
cations had been received to date
than at the same time last year.
A number of the applicants are
from adjoining states. Arrange
ments are being made for the
Juniors and Sophomores to live in
annexes and the Freshmen to oc-
cupy Residence Hall.
An interesting feature at the
meeting of the N. E. A. held in
New York this summer was the
comparison of courses offered and
the relative costs at the various
women's colleges of the country.
The Women's College of Delaware
is bound to reap a great deal OF
merited publicity from the express
sions of amazement that followed
Dean Robinson's report. The fact
that the state affords a splendid
opportunity at cost unbelievably
| low, was apparent to everyone.

Sergeant Jones Convalescent

In answer to an inquiry late
yesterday, at the hospital, Fort
du Pont, it was learned that Ser
geant J. w. Jones, of Company E,
who was taken to the post with
symptoms of typhoid, from the
State Rife Range, at New Castle,
about four weeks ago, is improv-
ing. Sergeant Jones sat up for a
half hour for the first time yester-
day. 1t is believed he will be able
to leave the hospital in the course
of week or so. He will probably
be given a furlough to regain
strength before leaving to join
his company in Deming, New Mex

Bids will be received August 16,
by the Delaware College develop
ment committee, for the new DOR
mitory, to be erected near the site
of the Colmery house, which is
being razed this week. The new
dormitory, according to plans pre-
pared by Day and Klauder of
Philadelphia, will be an unusually
handsome building, 1856 feet long
and about 35 feet wide, of brick
and stone construction. The build
ing will be plain and substantial
looking, four stories in height in
front and three stories high at
the rear. On each of the complete
floors are eleven single study bed
rooms and one study with two ad-
joining bedrooms. All the floors
are amply provided with bath
rooms and there are many attrac-
tive features of interior arrange
ment. The structure is estimated
roughly to cost about 100000.
Preparatory to the work of
building, workmen are engaged in
tearing down and removing all
signs Of the Colmery, Cook, and
Geist properties. The disappear
ance of the Colmery property
means the removal of a landmark
in the locality. The house which
for forty years has been occupied
by the Colmery family, was one
of the oldest in Newark. It's his

Rough Weather
In Mexico
Varied Experiences of the Dela-
uare Men

Letters received from Company
E men in Deming, New Mexico,
are filled with reports Of interest
ing experiences in the land along
the border, twenty-seven hundred
miles away.
A letter received on Tuesday
tells of a record d-breaking week
from the standpoint of weather.
On Tuesday, August 9Th, the ther-
mometer registered 115 degrees.
All of that night sand storm
ragged. On Wednesday there fol-
lowed rain, heavy for that sec
ton. Another day during the
week the men experienced whirl-
wind in the company street. Paper
was whirled, the correspondent
states, and clothes carried in the
air for a distance of five hum
dred yards.
A truck load of soldiers from a
Massachusetts regiment stationed
at Columbus, visited the camp on
Wednesday. On the way over one
of the men killed rattlesnake
measuring about eight feet, with
nine rattles. Many of the same
type are reported about Columbus.
On Thursday the monotony Of
camp life was varied by the ap-
pearance of two aeroplanes from
Columbus, which lowered for a
time over the camp. Company f
went on guard that evening.
A cowboy several days age
treated the soldiers to an exhibl'
ton of his skill with the lasso
presenting his victim, a coyote, tc
a member of D company. The coy
ote, our friends tell us, looks like
small fox, and is very shy anc
attractive.
Captain Jacobs as camp engi
neer is, perhaps, the busiest mar

We do not feel that the citizens

Nearly Four Hundred Arrive

The post card shower planned

spine was injured in a wrestling
bout last Commencement, proved
a grand success. During the day
set, Tuesday, August Is, 364 post

pleased. as who could help being,
at the demonstration of so many
friends. Il thought perhaps he
would tire of hearing so many,
the nurse said, when talking with
a representative of the Post this
morning, "but no, he wanted me
to read every one. A number or
them he asked to see and read for
himself, but such a large quantity
of mail would have tired him
completely, and the greater num-
her of them were read to him"
The cards came from as far away
as the Delaware camp at Demlng,
n. NJ, from Boston, New York,
and Washington, and of course
scores from Delaware.
