SMYRNA BUSINESS MEN TO
SEEK BETTER RAIL SERVICE
TO FERRET RUMORS ABOUT
DISCONTINUING SMYRNA R. R.
Committee Will Wait Upon Superin-
tendent of Delaware Division and
If Necessary Go Higher Up.

With frequent rumors that more
trains are to be dropped from Smyr-
ma Branch, and with still further in
timation, officially too, that the pass
enger service might be altogether
discontinued between Smyrna and
Clayton, leaving the people of Smyr-
ma to establish it's own auto bus line,
has caused an intense feeling among
business interests of Smyrna that
has resulted in cognizance being i'm
mediately taken by Smyrna Town
Council, with the result that COM
mittee of citizens, including Town
Council, will bring the matter be-
fore Superintendent Smith of the
Delaware Division, next Saturday,
May 18th to prevent any further
curtailment of train service and If
possible to have the afternoon and
evening trains, recently discontinued,
put in service again. Superintendent
Smith will come to Smyrna Saturday
arriving at two o'clock in his special
car to meet the citizens of Smyrna.
The feeling everywhere is that Smyr-
ma is too large and important town
to be ignored in the matter OF raj
service or lose its identity on the
railroad map and schedule. With
plenty Of argument to Substantial
full and sufficient claim for service
the committee will go before Superin
tendent Smith and if necessary to tn
, highest possible authorities. This com
mittee, which is appointed at the dl
rection of Smyrna Town Council, /
composed of the following: Presiden
L. M. Price and members of Smym
e Town Council; J. E. Wilson, w. I
e Keith. R. Y. Wallen, Thomas Jeffel

n Howard R. Jones, H. D. Boyer, Cla

e intimated that one reason for son
t. railroad officials taking a sta1

High Lights IN the
Ellis Philosophy

He believes, for instance:
That a husband and wife, if it
can possibly be afforded, should live
in separate domicilcs.
That a little jealousy may be an
unpleasant, dangerous thing; but.
Notwithstanding that, life is much
more interesting for all concerned
if a wife retains her male friends
and husband his female ones after
marriage.
That the marriage code is far too
rigid, and that until public opinion
makes it more elastic men and
women are justified in contracting
free unions.
That not all women are born
with the strong maternal instinct,
and that women should not have
unvantcd children Che believed
this in a day when others thought
it sheer heresy).
That housewifery should be
