the attitude of the railroads may be
conciliatory. They may be inclined

The Brotherhoods state that they
are willing to pro rate the pay in

WHY SHOULD the State of Della
ware worry over the building of
State Road through the length of the
State when General T. c. DUPONT has
offered to build, and is now building,
a boulevard, which will be presented
TO the people without a dollar cost?
With a magnificently built highway,
which would cost General dupont
probably $5,OOO,OOO to complete. the
State of Delaware would be possess
ell Of a boulevard running its entire
length. and the only responsibility at
tached will be the care and mainten-
ance by a Highway Commission to be
created by the legislature. The ac-
ceptance Of this great gift from T.
Colemon dupont means, that the peO-
pie Of Delaware If they desire to en-
bark in building State highways.
would have a tangible end well con-
structed boulevard extending through
Delaware to begin with. and as an i'm
portant result OF this gift, no bonded
debt with annual interest to be paid.
The building OF the boulevard after
the plans OF General DUPONT would
be a blessing to Delaware in future
years. Il has proved a blessing al
ready to one-half Of Sussex County
and no one now condemns or opposes
lts construction.

IT REQUIRES four years Of study
to become a physician accredited to
practice medicine; and, as an army
of even 100000 men, would absorb
every medical man now in the regular
army, also in the National Guard of
the various states, and all in what is
known as the medical reserve corps,
there is a serious problem facing the
United States. How will the medical
men necessary to care for an army Of
100000 soldiers, about $4,000 doc
tors in all, be secured? The medical
colleges Of the country can educate
only as fast as the human brain can
assimilate theory and practice, and
how the important necessity for the
health Of our soldiers is to be secur-
ed is now receiving the attention of
the medical profession, as well as the
military. The United States is well
prepared in money for any emergency
but in the scientific branches, from
medical men to the pointers of guns
and drivers of aeroplaues we are woe
fully deficient 1t is time real pre-
