Saves Car, But $s5 is Missing

Frank Sterling, of Bear Station,
owner of Ford minus a self-starter,
is debating the question as to which is
the cheaper, a self-starter or to hire
a colored man to start his car. Ster-
ling Thursday night accepted the offer
of a negro he met on street in Will
mington to start his car, and as a re-
ward he purchased drinks for the
human starter, and then Sterling fell
asleep in a chair in a local barroom.
When he awoke the human car starter
had begun something, Sterling being
minus $85 in cash. Sterling started
in search of the negro and his money.
Although his car was in front of the
saloon, Sterling failed to notice it,
and later told a friend that both his
auto and money were gone. The
police were notified the next day the
theft of the money and car by Ster-
ling, but shortly afterwards the auto
mobile was found in front of saloon
where Sterling had left it. No trace
of the negro, who is alleged to have
stolen the money, however, was found
The police are puzzled over the fact
that the robber failed to steal Ster-
ling's gold watch and chain.

STATE HIGHWAY CROSSINGS
Railroad Administration Not In a PO-

Railroad Administrator Not In PO-
sitiOn to Cooperate at This Time.
At meeting of the State Highway
Commission, over which Governor
Townsend presided Thursday after
noon, plans for the elimination of the
grade crossing at State Road were
considered, but the work is held in
allowance because the Railroad Ad-
ministration at Washington has de-
cided it will not undertake any such
projects until Congress grants an ap-
preparation. The same situation ap-
plies to the grade crossing at Har-
rington, which it is proposed to elm
mate. The work may not be done this
year because of the ruling of the Rail-
road Administration. An agreement
was entered into between the High
way Department and the Wilmington
and Philadelphia Traction Company
regarding the construction of the road
from the city line of Wilmington to
Shellpot Park. The Kent County Levy
Court asked the State Highway De-
partment to design two bridges for
the county road near Hartley, and also
to lay out a new road near MahOn's
lighthouse. A petition was received
from the Council of Laurel, asking the
State Highway Commission to build a
continuation of the State road through
Laurel. AS the Legislature has bill
before it to authorize the commission
to construct combinations of the State
highway through cities and towns, ac-
ton was held up pending the Legis-
lature's action. Engineer Upham was
authorized to equip a laboratory at
Dover with sufficient apparatus to test
all materials entering into road con-
struction, and to make experiments.
At present the laboratory work for
the Highway Commission is being
done at the laboratories of the du-
Pont Company, and at laboratory in
the Lehigh Valley. The dupont road
between Georgetown and Glendale,
was turned over to the Highway Com
mission by General DUPONT and now
becomes a State highway. General
DUPONT, after the meeting, went on an
inspection trip over the DUPONT boule-
ward, in Sussex county.

CLOTHES BIG AID
| TO SCREEN SUCCESS

Among other things, / promised in
my previous articles that | would say
something about the Importance of
clothes, not only of those contcmpiat-
Ing going into motion. pictures, but
also TO those already within tho
charmed circle
The possession OF suitable clothes
has given many would-be artists an
opportunity TO prove their histrionic
talents where otherwise they would
not have been given the parts 10 play.
It happens many times around stu
do that a director wants a beautiful
young girl to appear in society set
In this day. of absolute realism the
director will insist on having some
one who not only has appropriate
Towns. but ono who knows how to
wear them. rt
IL may be only a thankleas part, but
for beginners ii affords an opportunity
for them to show what they can do.
or course there are hundred Of parts
in motion pictures where we can wear
almost any kind of clothes. Hut again
there are parts that require special
clothes, and the girl who is able to fur
nish them viii surely get the roles to
play. Every time a director engag ~
people for a production he tells them
the kind of clothes they are 10 wear.

and you are not able to reply in tho

necessary clothes. he cannot bother
further about YOU, for motion picture
companies do not supply clothes un-
less the production is II costume or

The importance of clothes is forci-
bly, illustrated in the recent expert

TOLEADDEMOCRATS

Who is to be the new Democratic
national chairman to be named at the
meeting Of the. national committee
here Wednesday? Members of the
committee expect to name Homer S.
Cummings, long time vice chairman.
Friends of Joseph Gufey, nephew
en- James n. Gdffey, of PenhsyIvania,
but his political enemy. declare they
have the Endorsement of President
Wilson and Vance Mccormick, the
retiring chairman
An effort has been made to indicate
that this fact shows a lack OF coFti-
ality between the committee and the
President, and that If Cummings is
named it would show the President
is not so strong with the committee
as he has been in the past. But
apparently there is no such thought
in the minds of the committeeman.
They like Cummings and believe he
should have the post until the next
Presidential candidate is nominated,
when, OF course, the nominee will
designate his own choice for chair
man.
