Main street. at . o'clock this morning
Mr.. Armstrong had been in poor health
for several years, and his condition had
gradually grown worse since the death
Of his brother, j. Rankin Armstrong,
last summer
The deceased was known TO thou
sands OF friends throughout the State
as General Armstrong, getting that
title as a member OF the staff Of the
late Governor Biggs. lie was a life
long Democrat, and for many years was
high in the councils Of his party. He
served three terms in the Legislature
from White Clay Creek hundred and
had also served as a member Of both
the State and County Democratic Com
mlttees.
General Armstrong; last active part
in politics was in 1912 when he was a
candidate for Governor lie came with
i'm few votes Of being nominated at
the Democratic convention in Dover
that year. Former Senator Thomas NJ.
Monaghan, Of Wilmington, was the

COMMUNITY sing
PANACEA FOR H.C.L.
Brings on More Hopeful
View of Conditions, Mr..
Barnhart Says
GAVE REHEARSAL LAST
NIGHT OF MESSIAH"

Wren butter IS high, and sugar is
scarce, snd eggs are not. and the ultl-
mate consumer Is tempted 10 see red
and turn Bolshevik. community sing
Ing IS recommended by Harry Barn
hart as a pleasant method Of achieving
more hopeful view OF conditions. lie
told The community singers at the High
school last night that they were not
meeting every Tuesday for the sake OF
music SO much as for the sake OF at
tanning a community spirit and social
consciousness. lie said ne personally
knew a radical agent whom 10 had been
found had organized groups OF radicals
throughout the United States, by quiet
ly going about meeting and talking TO
them. This danger ne said, needed to
be met by the sane gathering together
OF people In such assemblies as COM
munity sings.
There were many new members and
visitors present at The sing last night.
10 was a merry rehearsal, accompanied
by much laughter and friendly joking.
Tho new members commented on the
Jolly atmosphere Of the affair.
The first half Of the evening was
given over TO singing whatever any
body suggested, "Grandfather's Clock"
Good Old Simmer Time" Smiles"
"Massa's in the Cold, Cold Ground" >" and
so on.
Harry Barnhrart suggested that
banquet for the Community Chorus
would be a good idea, but before men
toned H. c. L. OF butter, sugar and
eggs makes the banquet idea rather
impractical at present.
The inspiring rehearsal Of the Mes
siah" stirred even those who felt they
had no voices nor knowledge of music.
Mr. Barnhart called attention to the
fact that in those ancient days Of the
Old Testament, the same troubles were
worrying the world as in the present
time. lie sang the magnificent bass
solo from the Messiah" which told
Of the troubles In the words, why do
the heather rage and the people of the
earth imagine a vain thng-and the
rulers Of the earth take counsel to-
gether against the Lord?" Prophetic
were the words, the leader pointed out,
1--WE have broken their bonds-we
have cast them down from their
thrones"
Mr.. Barnhart considered the Mes
siah" especially 1tting TO be sung by
civilizations at this time be-
cause IL told the true remedy for all
the worlds present unrest. This remedy
is not the anarchy prescribed by the
red radicals, he said. but is opposed to
70. The remedy sung about in the
Messiah" he said is I'm the words,
"The kingdoms Of this world will be-
come the kingdom Of our God and OF
His Christ" The message Of the Mes
siah" sung 10 the wrold, he said, would
bring hope and peace because II was
the promise OF God.
The singers rehearsed several Of the
ohoruses eXoellently. The sing con-
cluded with Christmas anthems, Joy TO
the World" and NOVEL;"
There will be a public meeting OF
the chorus in the Hight Schol at s
O'Clock on Friday night to make fur
ther plans for the sings.
