Clayton Again Has a Paper.

An event IN the newspaper field OF Della
ware, last week, was the temperance
of the Clayton News. publication Of W ich
had been suspended for awhile, following
the death of its editor and proprietor,
Thomas s Start. Feeling that a news
paper was needed in Clayton, a number of
business men, incorporated under the
title of the Clipper Publishing Co. de
cided to purchase the plant from the
estate of Mr. Start and resume publication
the new management is well printed and
very promising in its appointments
II is the intention of the directors, il is
stated editorially. ITO publish paper
that Will, at all times, work for the up
building of this section Of the State first,
and in general TO give it's readers a good,
clean, healthy family newspaper Politic-
ally, as between parties. II will support
Democratic principles, but will not be
factional organ
No doubt there IS room for such q paper
in upper Kent county, especially in town
like Clayton, railroad junction OF much
business importance Also, il Is seemly
that Clayton should have a newspaper.
One was started there more than half
century ago. in 1867 or 1865, By womap,
Mrs McConaghy. and she made it q
success while she lived After her death
It's existence became intermittent, and
for awhile its plant was moved 10 Smyrna.
Mr. Start, however, took il back to Clay
ton, and although publication ceased
after his death, il has now been resumed.
We wish to the revived Clavto n Times
all the success il may prove itself to be
deserving of.

RECONSTRUCTION SCHOOL.

Much of real regret is felt at the passing
of the Carlisle Indian School, which
would be far more serious were it not the
institution is to be devoted to work even
more important then that to which it was
dedicated On September | the War
Department will take over the entire
plant, there TO establish a reconstruction
hospital for United States soldiers. Car
Isle has been a powerful factor in the
education of the American Indian but
ITS influence will not be wasted because
OF the change that has come over its
destiny
Other schools, nearer to the homes of
the pupils, will carry on the work, and
vocational as well as cultural training
will be provided for the children of the red
men. The big school, with its splendid
facilities and equipment, VIII furnish an
excellent center for the great work Of
making over the men who will come
home from France, physically if not
mentally disabled
Our government has set about its plans
for this work most systematically. and will
give every injured soldier an opportunity
TO become useful To himself and to society
after the war. This is not in any sense
a charity, but an act OF justice, and will
be carried out in the spirit of fulfilling
contract between the people and the
soldiers Omaha Bee

PAY for Women Workers.

4 strike Of bus and street car EN- ployes
involving about $4,000 persons, is under
way in London, and the cause is somewhat
suggestive. II is the companies refusal
to pay to women conductors the bonus of
five shillings 8 week that is paid 20 men
engaged IN the same kind of work
In these strenuous war times thousands
of women are doing the work formerly
done by men, and are working side by side
with men employees DONG the same work
they are. If they do their work as well,
it is only natural they should ask the
same pay as the men receive.
This war is altering industrial and social
conditions, especially the former with a
vengeance. 1t is breaking down sex
in respect of employment
and wages There will be many serious
problems to solve after the war is over
and the world returns to normal condi-
tions

Bad for Massachusetts.

Governor Samuel W Mccall Of AIassa-
chusetts has withdrawn from the primary
contest as a candidate for the Republican
nomination for United States Senator
This action by him leaves the field open
TO the uncontested denomination of
Senator John ". Weeks.
The public interests Of Massachusetts
are not served by this situation. Senator
Weeks, by his partisanship and his in
ability to maintain the high traditions Of
the general representation Of Massa-
chusetts in the United States Senate for
years, has not reflected credit upon the
State Governor Mccall, by reason Of
his ability and his high ideals would have
made Senator Of whom the people of
Massachusetts, could have felt Justly
proud.
Massachusetts therefore, Will have 10
be content with Senator Lodge and a
mediocre colleague, unless, perhaps, d
Democrat should defeat Senator Weeks
at the election. Perhaps this would be
good thing for Senator Lodge, as a
colleague of Governor McCalls calibre
might considerably detract from his
prestige The continuance of Weeks
VIII leave him alone in the Iimelight
But this is unfortunate for the people of
Massachusetts They would do better
to elect Democrat to succeed Senator

REAL WHEAT BREAD IN FRANCE.

While We are putting up with various

real wheat bread and they are almost the
only persons in tho world who arc doing
so. The regular ration allows Is ounces a

that much, even of the excellent bread
which is baked in the army ovens. Our
boys are getting food in quantity and
quality beyond that Of any army in his

Our kitchens abroad are supervised by
chefs who recently drew large salaries IN

of the cook is said to be much more diff

boys have had the best food that this
country produced last year or in the early
part of this, and il consists Of everything
that a fine grocery could supply. Do not

IN THE AMERICAN WAY.

American drive, American push, Ameri-
can effectiveness for the accomplishment
of the thing desired, have become pro-
verbal in this country
The American government has not al
ways been run III the American way
There has been waste not little-of time.
Of efficiency, especially of money. Those
giants of business and captains of industry
who command and accomplish in the
business world have been too busy to do
much more than criticise the ponderous,
retaped, wasteful ways of government
Asked to step in and remedy the evils,
they have generally declined, with or
without thanks.
In the process Of time we went to war -
surprisingly colossal war it did not
take many months of that TO convince
the American people, from the least to the
greatest Of them, that here was a task de
manding the best that is in American man
hood and American ability Our leaders
sought out the best, and called them to
command here at home, to direct our
great endeayor IN all its departments.
They have come-the Americans who do

political Camouflagc."

Some instances of what might be styled
political camouflagc" are contained in a
letter printed in yesterdays Philadelphia
Record, giving a resume of recent political
events in Delaware. Conspicuous in
this line is the attempt to hold up Mr..
Alfred l. du Pont as the successful leader
in the Republican State Convention of
last week, who proved his mettle and
ability to lead the party to thorough
victory over the discarded and somewhat
belligerent set he had to work with. :"
1t is not to be maintained that the result
of the convention was a victory for MIR.
du Pont. He went to Dover with q
previously selected candidate for the
senatorial nomination. but was compelled
to accept another candidate who had
majority of the delegates behind him.
There is not mrch victory in this.
Also, it is somewhat of a mystery why
Mr. du Pont should be exploited at this
time, as he is in this letter most conspicu-
ously, as the man who, by putting in
dependent candidates in the field two years
ago against the most objectionable candi-
dates on the regular Republican ticket,
was responsible for the defeat of Colonel
Henry A. du Pont and the election of
Josiah O. Wolcott. the Democratic
Senator" As MIR Wolcutt received
clear majority over all his opponents
81 per cent of the total vote-he owes
his election TO the voters of Delaware,
although there is no doubt Mr.. du Points
opposition to the Republican candidate
obviously helped.
However, it is likely the outside papers
will be bombarded with this kind of
political camoufage" throughout the
1t may not do any harm, but
it is misrepresentation of the real situa-
ton.

JUST FOLKS
BY Edgar A. Guest
THE NEW NATION.

We thought il fine TO live Mt case and
dronc along our selfish ways:
We worshiped vainidolatrics TO gold
and wine we spent our days.
For, war seemed very distant, then, and
life was like summer sea
On which the painted barks of men were
drifting rudderIess and free.
Then strife appeared and laughter fed
and duty grimly called the roll,
And from rich and downy bed we rose
nation with a soul.
oh, we were pleasure blinded then,
and We were trivial thinkers, too.
We were but hildren dressed as men
with only childish things to do;
We had no high resolves to keep; the
splendor of our past had paied;
Our souls were dull with drowsy sleep,
and as a race we'd almost failed.
Then Prussian hordes assailed the truth,
and tyranny with all It's might
Challenged the temper of Our youth
and manhood bossomed over night.
There. on crimsoned foreign land,
our race is winning back its pride;
Once more for liberty they stand, as
long ago their fathers died
Courage is shining through their deeds,
and splendor glows above them all
In sacrifice they live their creeds, IN
freedom holy cause they fall.
Thank God that from these days Of strife
our men shall come with shining
steel
Owning the nobler goals of life, and with
plrpnse that is real
