FAMILIES EXTEND
GLAD WELCOME

Fathers, mothers. sisters, brothers
and sweethearts thronged the plat
form OF the Pennsylvania depot, last
night, TO greet the last contingent OF
the Delaware boys from overseas. The
first train arrived at 7.i5 and the other
at 9.4i, bringing about 2J0 men In all.
The remaining 800 or more men OF
companies B, C. and d. Of the 59th Pio-
aeer Regiment, rushed-to their homes
In other States. owing 20 the uncer-
talnty Of their arrival only one member
Of the local reception committee pres
cnt, William Lyons, Jr., to greet
The boys, but there were more than
enough present TO make the boys feel
they were welcome. The news had
been spread that the troops were COM
ing early I'm the evening, some Of them
having wired their people Immediately
after receiving their discharge papers.
As a result, from about six until little
before ten the platform OF the Penn
sylvanla station was crowded with
relatives and friends. hoping that every
train would be the one that carried the
former soldiers on their way home as
civilians.
The noise Of the incoming train was
drowned in the spontaneous out
burst Of greeting exchanged be-
tween those who waited on the plat
form and the men in khaki The police
officer on the platform was unable to
stop the crowd from running after the
incoming train.
Several Of the men carried their guns
with them. When asked they explained
that the pieces" were couyenirs from
Germany. where they had been sta
toned for a time. Inquiry among the
men disclosed the fact that several OF
the seth Regiment had re-enlisted for
further service.
CONTRARY 20 rumor the discharge Of
the men at Camp Lee was not delayed.
They reached Petersburg Va. Friday
night, having left Camp Stuart that
AZ Camp stuart they stayed
since their landing on last Sunday, un-
dergoing the regular process OF quar-
sntine and equipment inspection. Ar
irving at Camp Lee at night the work
on their discharge could not begin
until Saturday morning. As the papers
were handed out 10 them yesterday
morning, together with their bonus,
some Of them, impatient for the regu-
lar train schedule hired taXis and rush

Shakespeare Stands Alone.

Admitting to the fullest that the
present age cannot forestall tie judg-
ment of posterity, it seems unlikely
that copy of the work of any con-
temporary dramatist will ever sell for
$4,000. Such thing happened re-
Gently in the case of four Shakespeare
folios; but Shakespeare was Shake
speare, even when his contemporaries
took him as matter of course, and
since then the judgment of time has
made him a standard by which the en-
during genius of later playWrights can
be reasonably estimated.

Good Advice,

If you're good citizen you will be
more concerned about your contribu-
ton to the world than you will be
about what the world thinks about it.
It's the fellow who can forget what
the world may think, in the desire to
give the world the best, who really de-
serves praise, Forget the unkind
words and dismiss the sighting acts
OF people about you. Censor all that
you hear for the good that's in it and
profit by the result. You will be far
more comfortable and the world will
hear from you.

Albatross Wonderful Flyer.

The albatross spends its life, with
the exception of few weeks given
each year to nesting entirely at sea,
and is on the wing practically all the
time. Furthermore, it does not pro-
gress by tapping its wings, as most
birds do, but seems to soar at will, rare
ly, if ever, giving a stroke of the wing,
seeming to need no impetus. At nest
ing time, which is early in the year,
the albatross repairs to an isolated is
land, such as one of the CrOzet is
lands, in the southern Indian ocean, or
Tristan da Cunha. in the South At
lantic ocean.
