MiddletOWn Soldier Dies.

An official telegram was received at
Middletown Tuesday evening by c.
Richard Manlove, from Adjutant-Gen-
eral Harris of the War Department,
notifying him of the death of his son,
Corporal Davis H. Manlove, in France,
on April %.
Young Manlove was a member of
Company X, 59th Pioneers, and was
Cne of the very first of the boys of
the vicinity of Middletown to volun-
teer his services for his country.
Consumers League For Shorter Hours
The Consumers League of Delaware
is urging the merchants to have short
er working hours during the summer.
AS time passes, the Civil War re-
treats into the middle distance of our
national history. To younger Ameri-
cans Gettysburg is hardly more living
a fact than Bunker Hill. Early read
ers of The Companion who sa wthe
aged Lafayette and heard Webster at
the dedication of the Bunker Hill
Monument must have felt on their
cheeks the very breath of Revolution
ary battle, and thrilled with an imme-
diate sense of the war which it is i'm
possible to recover now, even from the
most vivid pages of written history.
In the same way the generation now
in adolescence has on Memorial day
the privileges which no later. genera
tion will enjoy, of living contact with
the veterans of the Civil War. Out of
grateful respect we assist the survi-
vors to decorate the graves of their
comrades.
But Memorial Day is not for the old
soldiers-they who have lived the fact
need no memorial. The day is for US
for the young, who by joining the old
in their devotions are brought into
vital touch with great events.
The day is for the nation; the me-
mortal observances are the means
whereby the past imparts it's inspira-
tion to the present, and the future
While the veterans are still with us
making the past real by their pres
ence, we owe it to ourselves to come
close to them at least once year, te
be filled with their spirit, which has
been tempered and tested in nationa'
service From them we catch the light
as from a torch, to cherish and hanG
down to our children-Youths Com
panion.

CRIPPLED SOLDIERS
DEFEAT GERMANY
AGAIN
Attack Her This Time in the
Field of Industry

Soldiers crippled in the war are en-
ioying particularly pleasing kind OF
revenge on the Germans by defeating
them q second time. Instead Of at
tacking Germany on the field of battle
thew are attacking her in the field of
industry. and in q particularly vulner-
able point-the making Of fine toys.
The tovs are made at General Hospi-
tai No. 3. Colonia, n. j., and are sold
wherever possible, with a guaranteed
outlet in the shop established by the
American Defence Society.
The course Of instruction in toy
making is ore Of many offered at Col
onia. Work in clay, illustrating and
drawing for commercial purposes,
woodwork and decorative painting are
available for soldiers who have been
SO disabled as to need a fresh means
of earning their livelihood. 1t was
found that even during the course Of
instruction the best results could not
be attained unless the soldier felt that
he was producing salable goods, and
the American Defence Society's shop
was established to prove to the stud
ent soldiers that their work was good.
The proceeds of all articles sold are
divided-ffty per cent going to the
soldier and fifty per cent toward i'm
proving the sbops-Which are manag-
ed and financed by the government.
Toy making is naturally a favorite
choice, not only because it IS certain
to yield profitable living but because
TOW making is the traditional solacc
of the soldier in the trenches. Sol
diers of all the armies have developed
ur,annv facility in making wonderful
TOYS and souvenirs out Of the debris
which shells and shattered aeroplanes
droppcd about them. At the Recon-
struction Hospital this work is under
taken seriously and the toys produced
are having exceedingly satisfactory
sales.
just as the war uncovered unsus-
pectod talents for military life, its
.frarmath is revealing unknown ar
tistic potentalities in many men. At
the front many men began writing
letters of poetry or prose-for the
first time in their lives At this hospi-
tai men are learning to draw and
paint, and they are men who were not
making profession of Illustrating
before the war. Yet their work, even
as shown by scattered examples on
the "ztudio" walls, indicates talents
which will make the high class cover
designer for Vanity Fair or the art

In many cases the new occupation
represents what a man had always
wished to do, but was unable to learn
because of his regular work. 1t repre-
sents more than mere earning power
to the men, since it gives them the
confidence of knowing that they are
both Independent and Of distinct use
in society, doing an honorable job. The
cheerfulness with which the men study
is as marked as the excellence of theil

of initiative, and though many of Lloyd Georges ministers are men of ability, yet when he is away they seem unable to get anything done. As a consequence the British people who confirmed him in power in December with high hopes of future benefits, are becoming restive because now they appear to be no nearer securing the boons for which they hoped. Labor unrest is the most prominent and most menacing factor in the situation, but apart from this there is a general feeling of dissatisfaction which may bode ill for the future of the ministry.
 That ministry is as yet barely three months old and was returned to power by a majority unprecedented in English his- tory The party supporting Lloyd George is known as the coalition" and is com posed of combination of liberals and unionists who united under Lloyd Georges lead for the purpose of winning the war. It is opposed Dy the liberals formerly led by Asquith, and by the la bor party, and also by number oi independents of various descriptions. Al the December general election, Lloyd George gained a tremendous personal triumph: 335 coalition unionists and lS5 coalition liberals together with, 10 dem ocrats'' (who may in fact be/considere as coalition labor') were returned, g1v- ing him a total support of 47S.

 As far as the question of any sec- tional feeling l do not believe such a thing exists at present among the younger men. In my own regiment, which I commanded, out of three off cers in whom I placed the greatest con- hdence, two of them were from the south, one from Virginia and the other from South Carolina. My brfgadier gen. eral was from Georgia and my division commander from South Carolina. Un- der me and beside me died many gall lant southerners, such as Capt. J. H. Holmes of Charleston Indeed if it comes down to a question of Confed- crate veterans, my own great uncle fired the last gun directed from the Alabama against the Kearsage.
 We are hoping in St. Louis that the local chapter of the United Confederate Veterans will be one of those who will extend welcome to our delegates as they arrive. When the original com mittee for the call was being made up we searched all over to see if we could find some namesake and descendent of the great confederate leaders, such as Lee and Jackson, to put on the call. We were unfortunate in this as the only direct descendent of Robert Lee who was in the service was a Dr. Boil ing Lee of New York, and We were afraid that the country at large would not realize his ancestry General Jack son. of course, left no descendants. With warm regards, believe me, very truly yours.
