terest this audience to tell them
why | considered moving here. A
stranger passing through the town
cannot but be impressed with the
beauty of the tree-lined streets, the
cordially of the people, the looks
of the homes. The homes look like

than Newark. l merely repeat this
that a town may know how it i'm

quainted," he said. "There are
some plans upon which every
element of the community cannot
meet. l am sure if some Of the col
lege professors in our community
were to invite me to their homes to
discuss certain literary topics
should feel out of place and not at
home. But we can meet upon some
other plane; we can feel that we
are equally useful, one just as
proud as the other; each necessary
to the other. There are nice peo-
pile in all stages of society.
At one time last year our COM
munity was very much exercised
over the health situation. A meet
ing was called, and a representa-
tive body of people attended.
There was representative express
sion; it was a genuine community
meeting. From that meeting the
Board of Health learned that they
had the town back of them; they
confidently went ahead and did all
that they should do. The present

tive of every organization, | be

es on the du Pont Building for 1919

To Enlarge Du POnt Building

Plans have been completed for
the proposed addition to the du
Pont Building at Tenth and Market
street, Wilmington, work on which
will start shortly, it is stated. The
extension will run from the pre-
sent hotel building west along
Eleventh street to Orange and
south on Orange to the rear Of the
Y. M. C. A. building. The ad-
dition will give increased facilities
to the hotel and the Playhouse will
be remodelled. The new structure
will be used for quarters for the
subsidiaries Of the great powder
company ard their transfer to Will
mington will, it is expected, result
in a residence building boom.

at her, threw his arms about her

SCRAP At FISH
MARKET CAUSE
OF STRIKE HERE
Chinese Beat Up and Country
men Give Fishing Business
to Another Company. Whose
Aku Boat Captain Is Said to
Have Been DenIed Bait

That lively free for all fight among
representatives OF two local nshing
conn., anieS caused the strike" vi the
seven japanese captains 0: aku, or
tuna boats. is the report nn:vh has
reached the Star Bulletin from I'M
questionable authority
1t happened this way:
4 Chinese fishmongep got into
row at the fish market with the rep
resentative OF fishing company,
japanese. over a discrepancy CT about
81 in a bill. As a result, the story
goes, several japanese administered
a severe beating up" to the Chinese.
Now it happened that the Chinese
fshmonger was in league with a large
number Of other Chinese who we're
purchasing fish from the company rep
resented by the japanese, When they
learned OF the treatment OF the mCn-
ger. they decided to quit the company
they were doing business with and
trade with another fishing concern.
The story goes on to sa% that the
fishing company TO which the Chinese
gave their business had but one aka
HSnl1S bOdI ana tndi luc HESl hSI-
ing company. when it learned Of the
loss OF the business OF the Chinese,
made arrangements whereby the lCne
aku boat captain was unable TO Sc
cure bait, apparently figuring that the
company for which he worked would
be unable TO supply fish to the Chi
nese unless its aku boat could get
bait.
But the fishing company is reported
to have overlooked an important
point. 1t appears that the seven aku
boat captains mad formed an assoCia
ton, and that when the captain who
was refused bait made his plight
known to the other members of the
hui they declared sympathetic
strike and declined to go to sea, this
action, of course. affecting the COM
pany which had lost the trade of the
Chinese.
1t was reported today. however, that

In compliance with a temporary in

says the company must reduc. ITS

OWING to the fact that the company
claims it is under the jurisdiction of
the fedora shipping board, it has

Ashford at 10 o'clock next Monday
