We gather from current rumor that
there is a movement on foot to pave
the principal streets of Summcrton
and if this be true there is still some
thin gin store for this town which is
badly needed. Every town of any
consequence is awaking to the fact
that a good paved street adds to the
merchants whose stores it adjoins in
the way of having less dust to accum-
ulatc in their respective stores.
The adding Of a good paved street

WOUNDED SOLDIERS
CHEER "DELAWARE"

Mrs. Willard Hall Porter, chairman
Of the Women's Bureau, Captain Ethel
Ball Staniar, head OF the Red Cross
Motor Corps. both OF Delaware Chapter
and Commander Anita Phlpps Of the
Red Cross Motor Corps for the Penn
sylvania-Delaware division. have re-
turned from Cape May. On Wednes-
day they delivered the new ti-passen-
ser Cadillac, which has been loaned for
the use OF the wounded soldiers at
Cape May by the local Motor Corps.
They told Of a highly enthusiastic
reception from the soldiers on the ar
rival Of the big car. Delaware" was
cheered rousingly by the men.
or the 500 wounded men at Cape
May, only 30 are confined to their
beds. from which it may be seen that
many motor cars are needed 20 give
the soldiers recreational trips. The
good care the men arc receiving is
proved by the fact that only two OF
them have died since they were sent
to Cape May.
There is an appalling shortage Of
things to do down at the Cape. Nine
tenths Of the men are oonvalescent
enough to read and play games, but
there is almost nothing on hand 10
read or to play.
The boys have a piano, but they
have no music A batch Of popular
songs sent to them would so as good
as mothers chicken pie after a ten
mile hike.
The Delaware chapter is sending out
an emergency call to all the owners
OF games, songs. magazines and music
records to send at once. everything
they can spare TO the Old City Hall.
The Motor Corps will take the supplies
down TO Cape May.
Hundreds of magazines, ones with
material OF interest 20 the boys. are
ciamored for at Cape May. There are
khaki calls for chess and dominoes;
puzzles would be popular: tiddley-
Wlnks would tickle; novels would be
niity; and mountains OF magazines
would make the moments mosey along
more fulll1uously. Please bring them
to the old Town Hall.

When the government called for pa
triotic service preparation TO the war,
the way women Of this city represent
ing the most prominent members Of So
cicty, responded was noteworthy Mrs.
COnnable was among these patriotic
women and since has been interested
in every activity looking TO winning
the war.
Nor has Mrs. Connable restricted her
personal war work TO Delaware. Her
benencent influence has been felt in
Washington, Florida and many other
places. In December, 1918, and Janu-
airy and February, 1919, Mrs. C0nnable
was in Washington. Much Of the time
she spent there was devoted 10 con-
tributlng TO the comfort and happiness
OF wounded American soldiers who
were in the Walter Reid Hospital in
that city. 10 was no unusual thing for
Mrs. Connablo TO take out as many as
fifteen soldiers a day in her automobile.

Since the United States entered the
war, Mrs. Connable has made, with her
own hands forty-nve double-knitted
sweaters, and sent them into the war
zone for the comfort Of American
fighters. in addition it was a fad with
her throughout the war TO make up
boxes Of candy, cakes, nuts. and other
goodies and send them to the canton
ments and trenches. For the general
entertainment Of the soldiers she con-
tributcd victrolas and graphophones.
Among Mrs. COnnable's priced pos
sessions are $50 letters Of appreciation
which she has received from soldiers
on the front in France and Flanders.
Her latest contemplated war activity
is that Of having her yacht Julina
brought up from southern waters and
stationed at Cape May for the diver
sion Of the wounded soldiers and sail

the yacht may be used in New York

TO DISCUSS CITY
HOTEL FOR WOMEN

a meeting Of business girls OF this
city, for the purpose OF discussing a
proposed Business Girls Hotel. will be
held at the Peoples Settlement. No. i0S
East Eighth street on Monday even
ing. The meeting IS the second called
by Philip NJ. Trey, an assistant organ
izer Of the Wilmington Community
Service, which organization wishes 10
throw all Of its influence and strength
to helping the industrial young women
OF this city.
The plan arose through the sugges-
ton Of the Messrs. Charles Topkis and
James Ginns, who, when they as pro-
prietors with others Of the Charles
Restaurant Company brought young
women walters to this city. the latter
found that they. could not obtain any
suitable boarding house or lodgings ex-
cept at cxOrbitant prices. Out OF the
movement which the Wilmington Com
munity Service has inaugurated, TO as
certain whether it is feasible and ad-
visable to try and interest local phil
anthropists in a Business Girls Hotel
something may develop that will aiC
the girl whose folks do not live in this
city.
At the FIRST meeting the girls gave
Mr.. Trey some valuable SUGGESTIONS and
at Monday nights meeting it is hoped
that additional information will be OBJ
tanned. Since that time, 5000 cards
have been circulated somewhat after
the order Of a QUESTIONABLE. These
cards ask the girls TO state with whom
they live. Whether at home, with rela-
tives, with friends or strangers.
Whether they board and eat at the
some place; how many meals they get
at restaurants, other than where they
live; whether they favor a Business
Girls Hotel; il they would suppor,
such a hOstelry; what they would
consider a proper price for breakfast
and evening dinner. From this data.
Mr.. Trey hopes to establish an average
opinion for use in further considera-
tlon Of the project.
Other information sought Is fhe av-
erage amount received by young wom-
en- who are in business and what their
living expenses are.
From the young women. Mr.. Irev
hopes 90 learn what they would like
in such a proposed hotel in the way
Of rest rooms, athletic quarters and
various other details looking solely 10
their comfort.
The Chamber OF Commerce has ap-
pointed a committee to study the need
and possibility for the establishment OF
such a hotel and when more definite
data has been obtained by Mr.. Trey. he
will present this to that committee.
Every young woman who Is inter-
ested i'm such a project is invited 20
attend this meeting on Monday evening
and give hdr views.
