NEWSPAPERS HELP
TO SELL THE LOAN
Concrete Instances OF Axiom
That It Pays to
Advertise.

Does it pay to advertise? IL does, And
few knew it better than Liberty Loan
workers. Nobody could miss the appeal
for the Liberty Loan, which have featured
every issue of the newspapers since the
epidemic put its withstaying hand on all
demonstrations and meetings. The public
prints have asked the people to buy and
they are buying bonds, and several
instances of extra buying occurred yester-
day with the committee of the First Church
of Christ Scientist Mrs. Norman John
the captain reported to the women :
headquarters, that she had sold four
bonds just from the appeal in the papers:
One man went to Mrs John and told
her that he had bought all he intended to.
all that he thought he could afford, but
when tho epidemic broke out and ne saw
the difficulty Of the situation, he Just
could not help taking an additional 5000
at the Allied Bank One woman took an
extra 500 bond for the same reason, and
mother woman took an extra fifty-dollar
one
There have hecn many NOR who have
donc this very thing. but their eases have
not been reported Such instances are
tfnc examples Of loyalty, and are very
cheering to tho Liberty Loan workers

NEED CASKETS FOR
FLU" VICTIMS
Undertakers Discuss With Health
Officials Means TO Meet
Situation.

How TO take care of the remains OF
victims of influenza and pneumonia, was
u subject discussed at a meeting oil the
BOARD of Health yesterday afternoon.
The discussion followed the reading
nf u letter from Harvey +. Nichols,
head of the Delaware Funeral Directors
Association. urging the board to secure
u place for placing the dead until q suiii-
cient supply of caskets Is available. lhe
board asked the associatIon TO send n
committee of its members tn appear at
the board meeting this afternoon 1t the
,.lskct shortage does not improve by
that time.
The shortage is due. so undertakers
say, to the well-known Jaw OF supply and
demand. the latter exceeding tn" former
bought from Philadelphia firms which,
under the stress of the emergency, cannot
meet the demand Of their trade.
Despite the apparent shortage, however,
many undcrtakcrs have managed to
hurry the dead without either loss of
time or demands ON the Board cf Health
Should the shortage grow acute and tht
undertakers remain helpless 1t is not
unlikely that Il special truck or two will
be Sent TO 4 caskct manufacturer in New
\ ork 10 secure sufficient supply
The importing of n staff of undertakcrs
from New York to help care for the cases
here was another suggestion made.
Another method of solving the problem
was suggested Ivy r. Henry C'rier, of the
hoard and that is the plan adopted at
Gloucester \. j. There the bodies are
embalmed boxed and placed in the
cemetery vaults until funerals can be
held. This seemed to- present itself
favorahly TO the board members and may
hc one of the alternatives should the
undertakers be found helpless.
THIS Is UP TO THE LEVY COURT.
