from their daughter Alice who

After telling of the departure of
the Leviathan under convoy of
eight or nine tugs, she describes

worthy effort to obtain this high

this Recital should be as success
full as from present indications it
promises to be, it may be possible
to arrange next year for series
of such affairs. The great advant-
age of having such recitals in our
own town is obvious.
The demand for seats so far in
dicates that the house will be sold
out long before the date of the re-
cital. All seats are reserved. In
order to attract as many as pos
sible of the pupils of the schools
and of the students of the two col
leges, special students tickets at

are available. All other seats are

put up on the night of the Recital

of Wishes on
Public Issues
Christopher L. Ward Advises
Hearers
Declares Objections to League Of
Nations Will be Met

In the introduction to his speech
on the League of Nations last
Thursday evening Christopher l..
Ward referred to his audience as
"the most powerful, politically, to
be met anywhere in the United
States" He explained this by COM
pairing Delaware's representation
in the Senate with that of New
York for example and made the
conservative estimate that a Della
warean has ten times as much po-
litical power as the average
citizen. This power, he said, car
ried with it a corresponding duty
of keeping our representatives in
formed Of what is the popular will
on the great issues of the day.
Discussion of any subject is not
only natural but desirable for it
tends to crystalline public senti-
ment and to cause a closer scrutiny
of vital subjects than would other
wise obtain.
A Republican inshis political affi-
liations, and one who does not
hesitate to criticize the president
for what some people may term
his autocratic methods, Mr.. Ward
"cut the wings" Of the opposition
to the League of Nations by show
ing it's absolute practicability and
it's effectiveness in eliminating
war. He criticized the draft of
the League of Nations as we know
it now, but predicted with certain
ty that, even as he spoke, the
document was amended.
In speaking of the most vocifer-
Gus opposition in the Senate of the
United States, Mr.. Ward said in
part:

ETNA COMPANY
RESPONDS TO TWO
CALLS THIS WEEK
Averts a Serious Blaze in the
Residential Section

The Fire Company responded to
two calls during the past week and
by prompt action averted what
might in both cases, have been
serious fires.
On Friday some children play
ing with matches, by accident set
fire to an out building which ad-
joins the kitchen of the house oc-
cupied by Harlan Herdman on
East Main Street. The blaze had
assumed serious proportions be-
fore the alarm was turned in and
only the prompt arrival of the
company saved that entire section,
nearly all of which is of frame
construction. The kitchen was
damaged considerably and the
back of the house scorched before
the flames could be brought under
control. The building is the pro-
perty of Miss Mary McPike.
On Monday afternoon, an out
building at ex-Mayor Hossinger's
residence caught fire in some mys-
terious manner and for a time
threatened the adjoining garage.
The flames were discovered by the
college boys in the Sigma Phi fra
ternity house who took immediate
action with garden hose and had
the fire pretty well under contro,
before the company arrived. The
fire was at first supposed to have
originated in an ash pit but later
investigation showed that the
frame enclosure of the pit was not
burned. The origin is therefore
still mystery.
Friends of ex-Mayor Hossinger
who has been in poor health fol
some time, feared that the excite
ment would prove detrimental tt
him. According to a statement
made by member of the family
last night, he stood the affair with
great fortitude and calmness, ap
parently suffering no i'll effects.

PERSON TO PERSON" RATE

When a person makes toll call, specifying
that conversation is desired with a particular
person and the connection is established and
conversation held with that person, the ''per-
son to person" rate applies.
As this service requires a greater amount of
operating effort, the rate for such calls is
about one-fourth greater than the "station to
station" rate.
This ''person to person rate is computed on
the day rate between the points involved,
whether the call is made during the day OF
during the night, and the minimum charge
is Doc.
No ''person to person. call is accepted where
the "station to station" rate is less than 15c
