TOWNSEND CITIZENS PROTEST
Object To Their High School Being In
MiddletOwn-COunty Board Insists
On Compliance With Code

Townsend, Oct. L. Complaints
against the removal of the High
School from Townsend to Middletown
were read yesterday at the meeting of
the County School Board in the Coun-
ty Building. The main objection was
that the people of Townsend do not
want to pay school taxes to Middle
town to be used in that township, the
letters declared, when the taxes could
be used for the benefit of their own
town. Objections were also voiced on
account of the poor train service to
and from Middletown; the train the
pupils are using arrives in Middletown
nearly an hour before school time and
does not leave until about an hour af
ter school adjourns.
The possibility of some of their
trade going to Middletown was an
other objection raised to the removal
of the school. 1t was stated at the
Board meeting that there were not
enough pupils to fill two high schools
and there was no possibility of having
one in each town at present.
George L. Medill, chairman, and
two of the members, after a long dis
cussion of the Board, left on a late
train last night for Townsend to ex-
plain to the people the difficulties of
having two high schools within such
a short distance of each other. The
removal of the school was caused by
the new School Code, which calls for
the Capitalization of education wher-
ever possible.

SCHOOL BOARD VOTES TO Sc
LECT LOCATION ON FRAZIER ST
Site Favored By Big Taxpayers Of
District-SchOOl Colony Plan Will
Make The Location Ideal

At a special meeting of the Board
of EDUCATION of Smyrna Special
School District last evening, with
President Thomas Getz Hill, Walter
w. HynsOn and E. C. Graham present,
the matter of selecting site for the
new Consolidated High School Build
ing was entered into and after going
seriously into all phases of the sub
ject, the present school campus site.
directly back on Frazier street, was
selected by vote of 2 to l. The Sc
lection of this site was, therefore. re-
commended to the State Board of Ed
ucation, who visited Smyrna this
morning and left Immediately for Do
yer to hold their regular monthly
meeting. 1t is pretty safe to pre-
dict that they will approve the action
OF the local Board and that plans will
begin in the near future for the erec-
ton of handsome 100000 building
on this site. The "school colony" plan
has long been in favor, and to back
this up a petition was presented at the
meeting last evening signed by 25O
residents of the district, among whom
were practically all the big and infu-
ential taxpayers of Smyrna and vi
cinity. Four sites We're submitted:
Frazier street, directly back of the
present school campus; North street
site, just beyond Keith's Garage and
near the proposed boulevard; the site
at the intersection of Mt. Vernon
street and the Smyrna Clayton road.
and the site just beyond Font Hill, on
the Smyrna-Clayton road. Frazier
street was first choice, Mt. Vernon
street, second; North street, third, and
Font Hill, fourth. With the enlarged
campus idea and the opening thru of
Market street and Chestnut street.
Smyrna will have in this school col
ony plan, one of the best layouts of
any High School in the State.

BETTER MIDDLETOWN STREETS
Work Starts This Week On Concrete
Centers And Macadam Sides

AT a special meeting of the Board
OF Town Commissioners of Middle
town, held last week, the contract for
building the new streets of the town
was awarded to the Lowe Construction
Company, of Philadelphia, they being
the lowest bidders two weeks pre-
viously.
1t was the original intention of the
Board and recommended by the State
Highway Commission, to pave the
streets from curb to curb with con-
crete, but the construction was found
to have been too costly and several
changes were ordered. The Public
Square and Broad street, from Green
to Anderson, and Main street, from
the Square to Church street, will be
solid concrete from curb to curb, and
the balance of the streets will be
paved with concrete center and pen
etration macadam sides and concrete
cutters. The contract calls for an g.
inch center and 6-inch sides.
The contractors agree to finish the
concrete work within 40 working
days, and this, it is thought, will be
about all that will be done this au-
tumn, the penetration macadam sides
being left over until next spring.
Work began this week. The work
will cost approximately $45,OOO, and
will be paid for by bond issue, the
proposals for which are now being
advertised.

WILD DEER FOUND IN SUSSEX
State Game Warden DiIIahay Finds
Several Along Indian River.

A. F. Dillahay, the Chief Field War
den of Delaware, returned recently
from the Indian River country and
made a report to j. Hall Anderson,
Chief Game Warden, that the stories
floating around the State to the eff
feet that wild deer are present in the
State are absolutely true.
Mr.. Dillahay, in reporting the ex-
tent of his visit, said that he had in
terviewed many farmers who had told
him of seeing the deer, and from these
farmers in the vicinity of Indian Riv-
er, not far from Oak Orchard, he had
obtained promises that they would
protect these emigrant deer from the
dogs and whatever hunters might
wish to destroy them. That is neces-
sary in this State, because there is no
law which protects deer, as this State
has not been breeding-place for that
animal. In telling of his find, Mr.. Dill
lahay asserted that the farmers de-
clared that they had seen in the last
several days about seven or eight deer
which were feeding upon the marshes.
general opinion is that that the
animals had come from Virginia, fol-
lowing the swampy country that ex-
tends from Virginia clear to Della
