Boom your town. If you don t

it is going to be the metropolis of
this part of the country, and it soon
will be. Get in live and energetic
men and the town cannot help but
prosper, go forward and grow. You
never saw town amount to any
thing where business men and citi-
zens were always engaged in telling
how dead it was-lifeless and that
by all the powers he could not start
it moving, building up and endow-

enough to kill any town. while the

Theatre Tickets Must Have
Price Printed On The Face

Theatre and other tickets must
hereafter have printed thereon the
price of the ticket. the war tax and
the total. Instructions to this effect
were sent to prOprietOrS Of amuse-
ment places a month or so ago and
the local revenue office has received
specific instructions on the subject
recently.
The regulations provide that on
the face Of a ticket there must ap-
pear the established price of adj
mission, the admission tax to be
paid and the total of the two. When
"a ticket is sold at other than its es-
tablished price, then on the back
should appear the actual sale price,
the admission tax. paid and the
total.
When an admission card or ticket
is sold elsewhere than at the regular
place Of admission there must also
appear on the back of the ticket the
name and address of the seller.
For the convenience of those
theaters which have had large
blocks of tickets printed in advance,
some notifications will be made
provided a sworn statement giving
number and description of tickets
is filed with the district collector
and approved by him. In this event
the tickets will not have to show as
individual items the established
price, amount of tax and total, if
they show admission price or gross

Service Citizens Appreciates
Gift For Schools

At a meeting held last Tuesday
the executive committee of the
Service Citizens passed resolutions
expressive of the appreciation Of
the organization for the 100000
gift recently made by Pierre S. du
Pont for the betterment of Della
ware Schools. They adopted the
follwing resolutions
ION behalf of the members of the
Service Citizens of Delaware, the
executive committee herewith places
on record its appreciation and COM
mendation of the action Of Mr..
Pierre S. du Pont in giving the sum
of two million dollars toward the
rebuilding of the physical property
Of the Delaware school system. This
wise generosity promises to make
new era in the history of educa-
ton in the State and brings inspira-
ton and encouragement to all who
are planning and working for
better commonwealth. -
The Service Citizens made an APP
preparation of $1,000 to aid in the
operation of the Smith Hughes act
in Delaware, which has been made
mandatory by the code, and for
which no appropriation had been
made by the Legislature.
With reference to this matter, the
Service Citizens adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions:
This request is classed by the
State Board of Education as an
emergency by reason Of the fact
that the class of work planned for
in home economics and agriculture
is considered an essential part of
the development of the educational
program under the new code
throughout the State Of Delaware,
and is specified as mandatory in the
new code. The emergency apparent
ly exists primarily for the period
of one year, from July l, 1919,
since the special school districts and
the counties have made upland
closed their budgets; and the tax
rates for the operation of the
school system Of the State for the
present fiscal year, and the extern
sion of operation under the Smith
Hughes act has not been provided
for in many of these districts. 1t
appears to your special committee
that there is a substantial emer-
gency for the period of the present
fiscal year, and that the best sup
port to the State code in giving to
the schools the fullest possible OPP
portunity of development during
this first year of operation under
the new code. justifies the financial
contribution for the one year per.
iOd. The request from the State
Board Of Education covers two
years, but in the estimation of the
committee it is the proper duty OF
the constituted State agencies and
the separate school districts to meet
this need in the preparation of THEN
future school budgets. Therefore
. it is resolved that it is the sense OF
this special committee that thu
Service Citizens appropriate for us,
by the State Board Of Education
during the current year, the sum o
= eXteen thousand one hundred dol
lars for the purposes specified il
the letters Of June IS and Angus
/ of the State Board of Educa
. tion.'
