rons:
This has been a long cold
winter, and no as tits about
time for spring school to COM
mence, let's give good cheer
to the boys aud girls and
their teachers by appointing
a day in each school district
for q ssclean-np day.
Let's use some paper or
paint in the school house if
necessary.
Let's see that the outbnild-
ings are IN good condition.
physically and morally. Al
though | believe that most
of them are in good moral
condition, the boys and girls
of the county would be
ashamed to have me examjn-
inc the outbuildings and find
any obscene pictures or writ
ing in them. But [ also want
the parents to take an inter
est in this matter.
Let's also have the boys
and girls help clean ap the
yard. | think it would b.
fine for them to help and
then vote for their teacher OF
some pupil to send me a re-
port of the cleanup day in
their district.
Best wishes.

"Nhen The Boys Come Back"
They'll Look Upon Life
Problems With Different Eyes

just as fearlessly as they fought th'
devils in the trenches in France.
In former wars there was often lei
loose horde Of restless men made de-
generate by abnormal living.
But not in this one.
When the boys come back they will
look upon life and its problems with
new-old eyes They will spurn the
shams which they passed lightly by
in the olden days-for the intense real
tiles Of life at the front will have thor
Oughly disciplined them so that the
Worthwhile things will appeal TO
them.
They will think less OF rights and
more OF duties. They will bring back
little Of the hatred Of the trenches
That Will be buried with their dea0
enemies.
When a man gives as much as our
boys have given, cheapness vanishes
-cheapness of soul, Of purpose.
When the boys come back they will
demand that affairs at home be con-
Quoted in a superior fashion.
Everything in their own lives Is be-
ing evaluated. What is real? What Is
t worth? Can other things with which
hey will have to do in a vital way
'scape this revision?

to have paid fire department. The
letter was as follows:
Wilmington, Del, August 4, 1918
The Chamber OF Commerce,
Wilmington, Del.
Gentlemen: At a meeting OF this
company the verbal request OF Mr..
j. Writ Willis, of your body TO our
president, Mr.. James Keenan,. that
this company appoint a committee to
cooperate with a committee from your
body to bring about the establishment
OF a paid fire department for Whining
ton was considered.
II was the sense OF this company
that 1t would be impossible for this
company to grant the request for the
following reason:
Some time ago this company de-
cided that the Council Of Whining
ton Is the only body which really has
tne right to request the legislature to
pass an act creating a paid fire de-
partment; that as this body holds al
legiance to Council as a portion OF
the fire department OF this city IL must
look to that body to take action and
that it now stands ready, whenever
The Council may consider such a bill 1
necessary and expedient, to appoint
committee to act with Council in /
bringing about the passage Of a bin I
% e = blish a paid FIRE department.
Untl Council takes action, however.
his company feels that ID would be
improper to take any action in the
natter and awaits such action as
.Ouncil may deem prOper and neces-
sry.
Yours very truly,
