entirely blameless. He stopped in

of the injuries, lending what aid
was necessary.

DELAWARE SCHOOLS
RECEIVE MAGNETIC
ENT GIFT
Pierre S. dupont Gives Two
Million Dollars for Build
ing Fund

In an eloquent speech on Thurs
day morning last. DR.. Joseph H.
Odell, director general of the Serv-
i've Citizens of Delaware, announc-
ed gift of $2,000,00O to the public
schools of Delaware by Pierre S.
DUPONT, recently appointed mem
Der of the new State Board of
Education.
This announcement was made
in Wolf Hall to the assembled
teachers who received it with the
widest cheering and applause.
This huge sum of money is to
be expended in making the physi-
cal equipment of the Delaware
public schools the best in the
United States in accordance with
the ideals set forth in the new
Code said by experts to be "the
finest piece of school legislation
in the country"
To Make State a Model
Expenditure of the fund, which
is placed in the hands of three
trustees to be appointed by Mr..
dupont, will be directed by COM
mittee of the service citizens, with
1 the object of stimulating the
construction of school houses
thoroughly up to date. To this end,
the new schools must conform in
location, size and plans to the
rules of the state board of educa-
ton.
To share in the benefit of the
fund, the local community or the
state must put up at least half the
cost of the new construction, and
further must submit to the terms
of the new School Code, which is
a sharp revision upward of the
standards Of public education. As
all of the communities of the state
except Wilmington, have accepted
the Code, the benefaction will ex
tend to the greater part of Della
