and five other passengers had a
narrow escape from death on Sun
day night when his car ran into
the ditch in front of DR.. Watson's
house throwing the occupants into
the adjoining lot. All escaped with
only few bruises and scratches.
The car was likewise little dam
aged.
Considerable difficulty was ex-
perienced in righting the car which
was pulled out with the aid of
another machine. The accident was
due it is said to the recklessness
of driver who was approaching
Mr.. Carston's machine from the
opposite direction and who refused
to yield fair part of the road. No
assistance was rendered by the Of
Tending driver who sped on his
way.

Fire At Head Of
Christiana Church

What might have been a serious
fire occurred at Head of Christiana
Church on Friday evening last.
The sexton was lighting the lamps
for the evening service, when the
large chandelier OF six lamps
which were all lighted fell. The
oil catching fire, burned the side
Of the partition, The sexton brave
ly fought the fire before calling for
help. A call was sent to the New
ark Fire Company, which respond
ed at once but the neighbors and
the sexton had beaten it out with
wet rugs.
Those interested in the church
want to thank the Fire Company
for their quick response, but are
glad that it was not necessary for
them to go all the way. One pew
was badly burned and carpet in
four. pews soaked with oil. The
sexton was cut by the glass, and
his trouser legs burned to his
knees.

nth CAVALRY TAKES FIRST
DELAWARE OBJECTIVE BY STORM
Makes Newark First Stop in the State


were Mayor Eben B. Frazer, E. G.
Wilson, Daniel Thompson and DR..
Is. C. Mitchell.
They came up Depot Road turn
ed westward on Delaware Avenue
and doubled back to Main Street
as far as the North College Avenue
entrance to the grounds at Della
ware.
The news of their early arrival
spread quickly so that by the time
they had entered Frazer Field, the
hundreds Of spectators had almost
enciroled the track.
Exhibition drills were given and
superb horsemanship displayed by
members of Troops G and A. Mar
velous feats Of charging and track
riding were performed by these
young men, the thrilling climax
being hair-raising gallop around
the cinder track, 20 riders stand
ing erect, each guiding three
horses.
Troops B and D dismounted and
performed the regulation military
drills, giving a realistic exhibition
of going lover the top" when, to
the CONSERVATION of a portion of
the spectators, they charged the
west terrace of the field and routed
the enemy.
An amazingly persistent Lieu
tenant on a magnificent mount
gave an exhibition of hurdle jump
ing and caused much amusement
and many exclamations of admira-
tion for his persistent attempts to
make his mount take the high
jump.
Many Attractions at One Time
The mounted band grouped near
the south entrance to the field
played lively selections at intervals
during the drill. Frequently a
number of attractions were taking
place at one time, so that the de-
lighted spectator had all the joys
of bewilderment that attend an eff
fort to see everything that takes
place in seven ring circus. An
amusing side show to the whole
performance was the joyous aban-
don of the ubiquitous small boy
who swarmed on the terrace, an oc-
casional stab of conscience regard
ing school attendance, being speed
+ lily forgotten when some amazing
feat of horsemanship met his vi
sion. The ever present camera
man was made dizzy by the num-
Der of things he wanted to get all
happening at the same time.
The occasion was one never-to-
be-forgotten by Newark residents
who were privileged to be present
and certainly few missed the spec
tacle for the schools and the in
dustries were most generous in
permitting all to stop work while
the cavalrymen were mere.
After the exhibition sandwiches
and coffee were SERVED to the
squadron by the college, the Of
ficers and members of the Loan
Committee being served in the din
ing room of The Commons.
At $50 the march was taken up
again and the squadron went down

"The Price of Peace" by the ap-
pearance of two Newark heroes
who have Learned from observation
and experience what really is the
price of peace.
The two showings of this war pic
ture were well attended, consider

they were shown and the number
of people who were unable to be
reached with information concern

Upon invitation Of chairman
Eben B. Frazer, Corporal Orville

from overseas service with the
147th Infantry, and Fred Strick-
land who served with the Ambul-
ance Corps in several of the big
ioffensives and who received the
French War Cross for gallantry in
action, consented to tell something
of their experiences over there.
Strickland said that he had never
been over the top and modestly
avoided all reference to the service
which won for him the coveted
decoration but told the everyday
experiences of an ambulance
driver,-the gruesomeness of the
task which saved the life of thou
sands Of wounded. He told of the
gradual hardening process which
resulted from the daily contact
with the dead and the wounded, so
that driver could eventually eat
square meal even when surround
ed by the dead and dying.
He closed with word of appre-
citation from the boys over there to
the folks back home whose support
and cooperation mean 20 much in
times of stress and danger. In be-
half of his comrades still in arms
and of those who made the supreme
sacrifice, he urged the home folks
to finish the job" by subscribing
to the Victory Loan.

who took part in the engagements

ly remarked that the charge of the

No radio message could have
travelled faster than the news that
the squadron of the Eleventh Cav
airy which had camped in Murray's
meadow on Monday night had ar
rived in town an hour before sched-
ule time. No attraction since that
of the Piper of Hamelin has drawn
could have drawn so many people
Of all ages from so many directions
as did this group of silent horse
men 300 strong who halted here
yesterday for an hour and half
and gave on Frazer Field an ex-
hibition of superb horsemanship
such as had been seen or can be
seen by few in lifetime.
A brillian stroke on the part of
the Victory Liberty Loan Commit
tee through their spokesmen Mayor
Eben B. Frazer and E. c. Wilson,
secured the privilege of this rare
treat for this district.
Mayor Frazer on Sunday even
ing entertained Lieutenant Doron
who represented the adjutant gen.
erals office in making advance ar
rangements for the squadron. This
young officer who has seen about
eight months active service at the
front entertained Mayor Frazer
and few guests with accounts of
the accomplishments and exploits
Of the 18th Cavalry, particularly
of this squadron and gave some
lively observations of the overseas
conflict and of his personal ex-
periences. Mayor Frazer and Mr..
Wilson made an appointment with
Colonel Mayo who is in command
of the squadron and after much
persuasion prevailed upon this
taciturn officer to allow Newark to
be host to his command on Tuesday
morning.
The squadron had encamped for
the night on the Murray farm just
west of town. The news of this fact
spread quickly and hundreds of
people in machines, on bicycles, in
teams, and on foot visited the en-
campment during the late after
noon and evening. They were es-
pecially pleased with the gentle
manly bearing and splendid morale
of the men, many of whom had just
returned from overseas service and
were detailed to aid in putting over
the Victory Loan. This particular
squadron is enroute from Fort
Meyer to New York to participate
in huge demonstration there the
last of April. Several of the officers
and privates wore decorations won
for gallantry in action. Like their
colonel, however, they were indis-
posed to say anything of their per-
sonal achievements.
The Squadron Arrives at s a. m.
On Tuesday morning they arriv-
ed in Newark via the South Road
promptly at 8 88'clock and were met
by the Victory Loan Committee in
automobiles decorated with flags
and with legends telling that "The
Boys Have Done Their Bit, Let Us
Do Ours" and similar Victory Loan
slogans, relative to finishing the
job" In the foremost machine
