$4,000 kilograms To Patrons

Blaumer's, one of Philadelphia Head
ing department stores, recently sent
out SO, 900 Western Union Night Let
ters to local patrons inviting them to
their fall opening in the new quarters.
The Night Letters were addressed to
the m1stresses of $4,000 family purse
strings and requested the honor Of thei"
presence at the promenade des TOi-
lettes posings." kilograms were used
on account of the unusualness of their
appeal and for the reason that they are
sure to be read and receive attention.
A fuIl-page newspaper advertisement
announcing the opening and setting
forth the aim and purpose of this store
was also run at the same time. This
unusual advertising stunt aroused a
great degree of interest on the part of
the public, and the name, "Blaumer's,"
was on the lips Of everyone in Philadel-
phia. The store was filled continuously
during opening week, and large vol
ume of sales made as a result of the
campaign.
This file of $4,000 Western Union
Night Letters goes down in history as
the largest single telegraph order ever
booked.

DOES VALUABLE WORK

A most imp essive object lesson Of the
value of ithe work and its Importance
at the Delaware Industrial School for
Girls was given Wednesday at the Cen
tury Club at Dover, when Mrs. Henry
M. Jackson, Superintendent of the
School and five girls gave a most pleas
ing entertainment before the members
of the Club.
The girls sang several selections that
displayed the underlying principles of
their teaching in a very creditabe
manner.
The following program was rendered.
Anchored" Full chorus with alto and
soprano solo. 'Rockin' in de Win, :"
Lullaby with humming obligato; Gun
til" Soprano SOLO; Recitation, The Owl
Critic; ga Mothers Lullaby" Four
part song; &c Old Kentucky Home, "
solo and full chorus. Short address by
Mrs Jackson.
1t was the object of the Club to have
the work more definitely described to
them that they might understand it
more fully.
In her remarks Mrs. Jack son said that
1926 girls had been committed to the In
dustrial School and fifty had been held
there as witnesses Of that number
fifty per cent of the girls had reached
high standards of good citizenship,
twenty-five per cent had done fairly
we'll, while only twenty five per cent
had done poorly. And that the School
needed the full support of every COM
munity, as every community needed the
support of the School.
She also spoke of the greater advan-
tages offered the girls since they haC
moved to the country first, of the greater
privileges in outdoor life as. much oil
the work that had been done on the
farm this year had been done by the
girls not as vocation but as filling il
an emergency call.

BOOST YOUR OWN TOWN

Speaking of a towns prosperity, moth
ing is more certain than that all of its
interests, all of its business activities
are one, all sharing one common fate
for good or ill. Anything that harms
one part of the people, or one part of
the towns business, harms every part,
every business.
Good stores are prime necessity to
any live town. Good stores not well
patronized, become finally poor stores,
and poor stores tend to keep settlers
away and to drive away those already
here. This means less population,
which in turn decreases the value of
town real estate, hurts mechanics,
dentists, doctors, banks and in fact
every institution or business of any
kind in the whole town.
MiddletOwn should wake up for it is,
we are sorry to admit, losing popula-
ton; more houses and stores are becom-
ing empty; the number of skilled me-
chanics is growing less, and generally
speaking, there is, we fear, lack of
that spirit of progress which is found
IN wide awake towns, that working to-
gether of all the citizens for the COM
mon good of all.
Fogel & Burstan's offer of $25 for es-
says by the school children on the ne
cessity of our towns people patronizing
all their home stores of every kind, is
a move in the right direction, for as we
said above, well patronized stores are
big help to any town, and to neglect
them. by outside buying Injuries every
other business in the town. So let
everybody patronize our own towns
business men, our own stores, shops,
etc., our towns professional men and
mechanics, and we will all prosper to-
gether.

SCHOOL LAWS DISCUSSED

The Parent-Teacher Association of
Columbia School, District 49,, Sussex
County, Miss Dortta Ellis, Teacher, had

ship of the Association were present.
By means of a Chart and Examples, DIR
Chas. A. Wagner, Commissioner of Ed
ucation, explained the School Tax Sys-
tenn and demonstrated the injustice of
the system. All were intensely inter
ested; the school children were called
upon and answered questions quite free
ly.
At the close of DIR. Wagner's chart
talk, County Superintendent Haresty
seconded DIR. Wagner's appeal to the
parents for interest in the State Board S
effort to improve educational conditions,
and for support of proposed laws. The
association will take action at later
meeting.
Discussion of Proposed School Laws
have taken place or are taking place in
many Association and Community meet
ings. In many other places the time of
meeting has been fixed. Delaware
City, Newport and Townsend, in New
Castle County, are holding meetings.
The pamphlet containing Discussions
of Proposed School Laws is much in de-
mand. In one neighborhood the scarcity

Students In Military Study
