A splendid group picture of the first contingent United States train ing camp, coast artillery, stationed at Fort Winfield Scott, near San Fran. francisco, has been received in Pine Bluff. There are five young men from Pine Bluff in the company, and they present a fine, soldierly ap. pearance in the picture.
 The names of the young men from this city are: Virginius and w. B. Alexander, E. c. Tovey, c. A. Troupe and A. G. Weeks. The picture tells more than letter could of the great satisfaction the boys feel at being in the service of the government, for they present every appearance of contentment and readiness to serve in the country's cause.

The Hague, Oct. 20.-In the Social lst monthly, Dr. August Muller, the new Socialist secretary for Ger. man food distribution, admits that af- ter the war Germany will find it diff. ficult to transport materials "anh still more difficult to pay for them. , He pays high tribute to the organ lzation gradually being called into ex istence in Great Britain under Pre- mier Lloyd Geoage and says:
 "The British empire may in many respects furnish us with model. Here practice is already deeply leav- ened by the economic principle of the greatest possible production at the lowest possible expenditure of materials"

NEED PHOTOGRAPHERS.

Washington, Oct 20-Newspapers and news syndicates were appealed to yesterday by the Signal corps to re- lease experts in photography-for ser vice in France in developing and printing photographs taken by the American air forces.
 Owing to the importance of speed in army tactics, said a signal corps statement, plates must be developed printed and placed in the hands of the intelligence officer for transmits. sion to headquarters about 10 min Ctes after the plaes are received from the alrplane. Men who can work with this speed are few and mostly are connected with news photogra- phy.

The Huge Sum Necessary to Subscribe to Complete

Washington, Oct. 2O.-The Liberty loan campaign today progressed to the threshold of official expectations and paused: Treasury heads had hoped the $2,O00,O0O,OO0 would be crossed. Apparently the total sop ped short of the mark with a total of $1,973,000, 1000.

The Associated Charities come to the rescue of George Taylor, whose home burned Thursday: night.
 George Taylor. a negro, who lived at Fifteenth and Missouri streets was compelled to walk from his home leaving it in flames, managing only to save an old trunk of very little value.
 Taylor is known as a very hard working negro, having worked for some time for the Standard Lumber company of this city. Several months ago Taylor was compelled to lay off working on account of rheumatism which confined him to his home for some time. He then resumed work at the Standard mill.
 Before Taylor took sick he carried insurance on his household goods to the amount of $300.00 which would easily have replaced his loss, but during his sickness he got behind and let his insurance drop thus caus- ing him to call upon the Associated Charities for assistance, which was very gladly given.
 . Taylor stated that if he was ever sick again. he would under no cir cumstances let his insurance get be- hind. Just think. for the small sum per year this would have saved this negro from humiliation, and many others as we'll.
 Now the best thing for you to do, is to insure your household goods today. TAYLOR & co.

FEW THERE BE of towns where
the annual Teachers Institutes can
be held, in either of the two lower
counties of Delaware, because of the
auditorium in which to meet and also
the hotel accommodations available
for their entertainment. Then when
a joint institute with a gathering of
five hundred and more of teachers as
semble, it is a fact that only two
towns outside of Wilmington can care
for the gathering, and these are Mil
ford and Dover. This year Milford
is to have the honor of doing the hos
pitable for the teachers and it is with
out question, that they will be as well
taken care of in November, as they
have been in the past when they have
met in this town. The homes will be
opened to the teachers, who pay their
way, and we expect to see the attend
ance at the day and evening sessions
so large that the Armory will be tax
ed to the uttermost to accommodate
all would like to be present. Milford
was always a good institute town,
and the farmers for miles around
take an active interest in the proceed
ings. This is to be expected of a com
munity of the intelligence of Milford
and its environments, and the teach
ers will be benefited by having passed
a week with the people, as well as
from the sessions and work of the
instructors. Welcome the teachers
warmly.

A GOOD MAN and a fine type Of
good citizen has gone to his rest
while the educational circles Of Del
aware has distinctly lost one of its
hardest workers for the interest OF
public school education, through the
death of DR.. James E. Carroll, who
died last Friday at a Philadelphia
Hospital. It was the writer's priv
ilege to have known him in an init
mate way for the past twenty years,
and without question, much of the
present advanced condition of the
public schools of Kent County, Della
ware, is the result Of his personal
work, and efforts to interest the peo-
pie in the great Importance Of getting
all possible out of public school edu-
cation. Since his advent into school
affairs in Delaware, the private"
schools and little "seminaries" have
all disappeared, and the democratic |
Use of the schools has become an un-
part of education. His

THE LIBERTY Loan meeting held
at Armory Hall last Monday night
was addressed by speakers who told
plain facts in a plain way, and press
ed home hard the fact, that the farm
ers of lower Delaware are the real
slackers in the war. They have been
reaping the greatest harvest of pro-
fits ever known from all kinds of
crops, and yet they have failed to in
vest any part of the great gains in
the bonds of their country. This may
be an unpleasant fact, but it is true,
and the farmer who is willing to have
the other fellow bear the burtehn IS
unworthy of the privileges he now
enjoys. In the banks of lower Della
ware fully three-fourths of the money
on deposit is owned by farmers. The
business men have but little of the
balances to their credit. Is there any
thing safer than the pledge of the
United States? A Liberty Bond is far
more safe and better than the money
on deposit in the banks. When the
next call for loan comes, it is more
than probable that it will be draft"
