Our Money Not Wasted

All of the money being expended
for war purposes is not going to be
waste. Some of it is going to be
shot away; some of it is going to
be sunk at sea; some of it is going
to be invested in machinery that
will be useless in time of peace.
But very great portion of it is
being spent for things that will be
as valuable when peace comes as
now, though not so imperatively
needed then-ships for instance.
And as for the immense amount
spent in adapting our manufacture
ing plants to war purposes, it is
estimated that 80 percent of our
war machinery can and will be
used for other manufacturing
work after the war.
The invisible and intangible
forces, the moral forces of the
world, the soul and conscience of
mankind are fighting on our side.

lis, 166,05S,000 francs 1922, 227, :

The public debt of Italy at the

The debts of the Central Powers

BARNUM & BAILEY
CIRCUS COMING
Greatest Show To Exhibit In
Wilmington

Once again the glad tidings are
being spread broadcast telling of
the coming of Barnum & Bailey's
circus. The greatest show on
Earth, it is announced, will posi-
lively be exhibited within easy
travelling distance this season and,
as usual, a large percentage of the
population will declare a holiday
to visit the show.
The big circus will exhibit in
Wilmington on May 10.
1t is promised that nothing to
compare with the present Barnum
& Bailey performance has ever
before been seen under canvas.
New and novel features have been
imported from abroad and q pro-
gram of events, thrilling, educa-
tional and screemingly funny, will
occupy every instant in three
rings, four stages, the riggings
above the hippodrome surrounding
for more than three hours.
There is a new and gorgeous
pageant entitled, Aladdin and His
Wonderful Lamp" in which nearly
1,400 persons and one thousand
animals appear in magnificent
costumes rivaling the dress of the
f., people of the famous ARABIAN
Nights" story. This will be fol-
lowed by host of acts in all parts
of the great enclosure. There will
be sixty clowns, a greatly increas-
ed menagerie CT wild and untamed
animals, four great herds of ele-
| plants, several caravans of camels
and many recently born baby
animals.
The free street parade, which
will start from the circus lot at
10 o'clock on the morning of circus
day, is entirely different from any
thing of the kind ever shown be-
fore. 1t will be three miles in
length and there will be bands on
foot, on horseback, and riding on
top of wagons of red and gold.
There will be six bands in all and
they will be assisted by three
steam calliopes and an electric
piano.
With the largest tent in the his
tory of all circuses, the Barnum

INCOME TAX
BILLS in MAIL
Revenue to Go for Roads and
Schools

That Delaware's State Treasury
will be enriched by nearly S400,-
900 as result of the new income
tax law passed at the last regular
session of the General Assembly
in 1917. This result is indicated
by the figures already compiled in
the state treasurer's office, and the
work is not yet completed. The
tax returns so far complied total
S33S,S74.39, which figure will be
considerably increased by the time
the work is entirely completed. The
returns were filed with the state
treasurer prior to March l, and
since that time the office force has
been kept busy figuring on the
amount due the state from each
taxable and making the totals.
Agricultural occupations were ex-
empt from the tax.
There is great variety in the
amounts due the state from var
ious Delawareans whose incomes
are taxed. Some incomes barely
exceed the $1,000 exemption, and
will be taxed but few cents,
while others will reach we'll UP
into the thousands. The average
tax paid, however, will range be-
tween SIS and S25.
If the total amount of revenue
derived by the state this year from
the income tax reaches 100000
the newly created State Highway
Department will receive S150,000
