Nurse Dies.
Miss Ruth Dybeck, a nurse at the
Delaware Hospital, died at $50 O'Clock
last night from influenza. She was
taken with the disease September %
Miss Dybeck lived in Hartley. and en-
tered the hospital on September IS as
a student nurse The dead girl was
nursed through the sickness by her
sister, Carrie Dybcck, who entered the
Institution as student nurse nine
months ago.
Six nurses at this institution who
have been employed on private cases
will give their attention from now on
to victims Of influenza. Those whom
/ they were attending have passed the
danger stage and have announced tha
they want to give up the nurses so
that they can be OF a greater help in
the present emergency. One OF e.
nurses viii 90 10 the Country Club

There are fully one hundred cases
OF influenza among employees Of the
Marlin-Rockwoll munitions plant at
Port Penn. There are many sick people
in the town of Port Penn A grocer
by the name Of Connolly, is reported
very low with pneumonia, in that town.
10000 Cases Reported.
An official report last night placed
the number Of influenza cases in the
city at 10000 with ii3 deaths since Sat
urday. There are approximately 1000
more cases which are nothing more
than heavy colds, and yet, unless every
! precaution is taken, may develop pneu-
monia
Every hospital is taxed TO its utmost
capacity; every physician has a far
greater number Of cases than he is able
10 care for, and yet a great deal OF tl
trouble is due TO the public scare. Many
people who are now suffering with lin
fluenza" have nothing worse than an
old-fashioned cold. which ordinarily
would cause no anxiety, but due TO
the general alarm, has taken on a more
serious aspect.
OF the 5000 employees Of the Harlan
yard approximately $500 are not at
work because OF having the disease.
Several new cases developed among the
men yesterday, while a few reported
for work who had been i'll. One OF the
officials said last night that though
there was not a perceptible abatement
Of the maladY among the shipworkers,
yet he hopes 10 give out some en-
couraglng news in a few days from the
standpoint Of the disease letting up.
About 500 Of the 5000 Pusey and
Jones shipworkers are out as a result
Of influenza. There were seven new
cases yesterday, while a few Of the
number who were sick returned to
work.
AZ the meeting Of the Board OF Health
last night. one Of the members stated
that the board has reason TO believe
that there aer a number Of registered
nurses and Red Cross nurses who have
failed to respond TO this most urgent
need for nurses at the emergency hos
pitals at the Country Club and the New
Century Club Nothing but the most
eXacting needs in private families
should deter these nurses from coming
forward in this emergency and offering
their services in this afflicted com
munity.

Pierre 5. dupont and his associates

made Judge Burlington took hand
in the argument several times. He
asked for a clearer statement about
the bank deposits and the loans and
indicated a desire TO know about the

in the loans, in which large deposits
were made. He also asked il it was
not a fact that the distribution Of stock

Judge also asked for detailed analy-

the parties directly interested. the over

Mr. Glasg0w's contention was that no

nothing for the stockholders to decide

Two Kinds of Satisfaction

Aside from the satisfaction in duty done there is the sordid satisfaction when buys Lib erty bond in the fact that good investment has been made. In fact so many people want Liberty bonds who have other stock that it has become necessary worth of any security offered in trade. Of course trade Liberty bond for any better security for, to drop into the language of the street-here aint no such animal"
 Of all the bonds issued during the war by all of the great governments involved there is not a single issue good the Liberty bonds The voice of the stock ticker is the voice of values and it ticks that message to every business center every day Liberty bonds today the best security the world They backed by the best and substantial govern ment in the world with the whole assets of the wealth. real thing in value?
 One of the fascinating studies of the is the growing interest which the people taking in it. Things which tolerated at the opening stages of Americas entrance into the world conflict land people in jail these days. Public opinion stands four-square for the war and anything which will help win the war has the united backing of all true Americans There is nothing in the world which can be done by the people fortunate enough to be left at home in peace and comfort which will go farther towards winning the than will the ready purchase of Lib erty bonds That is why greater and greater numbers are investing in these prime securities
 When you buy satisfaction of the soul and at the same time get your money back with interest mere cash becomes cheap by comparison with the op portunity.
