MAKE INSPECTION
OF BUILDINGS
School Board Satisfied Minor Re
pairs Will Eliminate
Fire Traps.

The special committee representing
the Board of Education will finish in
spection of the city schools when it
makes a tour of the school buildings on
the west side Of the city, Monday, In
time to present detailed report to the
Board at a meeting Monday night.
Twelve schools on the east side were
inspected yesterday. Counting the new
High school annex twenty buildings
remain to be inspected, however the
committee was confident of being able
to visit all before Monday night.
The committee which made the rounds
Of the east side buildings yesterday was
composed of George Rommel, president
of the Board of Education; DIR. Conwell
Banton. chairman of the committee on
repairs; Clifford j. Scott, superinten-
dent, W. A. Croney, supervisor of build
ings, and Marine Thomas. school engireer.
While the buildings were not entirely
satisfactory members of the inspecting
committee said they were confident
that few minor repairs would put
the buildings in a safe condition.
1--WE found things much better,
said Mr. Rommel, last night, Gin Schools
No. ] and No. 9, which We're specifically
Investigated by the Fire Prevention
and Conservation Committee, than at
the time the latter body had made IFS
inspection. 1t was evident the janitors
had taken heed of the criticism and had
cleaned up whatever rubbish there was
of which complaint was made. 1t should
not be overlooked that the inspection by
the Fire Prevention Committee was
made in early July. Since then the
ianitors have had time to act.
r. a l. -l-Nf- Il
we visited, OF course we found many
things we should like to have changed.
There again arises the serious lack of
money from which the Board has suffered.
We should like to have done many things
before this which we could not do for
want of funds"
Were any conditions found which
In your judgment, could not be remedied
in time for school opening and which
would make the buildings dangerous
to life?' they were asked.
''No, / think not, replied Mr.. Rom
mel. But the public will get full
details in our report next Monday night,
and it may rest assured the Board will
do everything necessary to make the
schools as safe as is within its power"
Mr.. Scott, city supervisor of schools
last night spoke IN similar vein. He
said:
Eve found conditions generally better
than we had anticipated. The Fire
Prevention Committee made itsi nspec-
ton before the ianitors had began their
customary autumn cleanup. The jan
itors since have got busy and will con-
tinue to clean up everything all next
week which might be considered danger
GUS"
When asked the same question con-
cerning fire hazards which had been
put to Mr.. Rommel, Mr.. Scott replied
''In my opinion the buildings so far at
least as we have seen them, can be put
in fully as safe condition as in previous
years. We shall have time enough before
opening Of the fall term to climate serious
risks"

THE GIRL ON THE JOB.
BY Jessie Roberts.
Copyright. 1920. by Wheeler Syndicate Inc.
THE EXECUTIVE JOB.

II is only slowly that women are be-
ginning to be appointed to executive posi-
tions. One reason for this is that women
who occupy jobs that should legitimately
lead to the higher, managing position are
not willing to give the proper conscien-
tious study to the theoretical side that IS
required. -.
Another reason is that the woman will
often hesitate to announce that she Is
after the advance that she is fitted for.
She breads being turned down, losing
what she has, possibly, in the endeavor to
reach something better. But many blg
firm prefers to promote from the inside
rather than to take on someone from the
outside, and woman who is thoroughly
familiar with the procedure OF her hrm,
who is known and liked by the other MEM
bers of the force, and who has really
earned right to be promoted, should
stand an excellent chance OF that promo
ton.
OF course. executive work for women is
new. It is the exceptional woman who
must build the road. 1t is she who must
make it less unusual to find woman
managing the office, the advertising de-
partment, the credit or correspondence
departments, the buying or selling for the
firm. For every woman doing this sort OF
work today there will be 20 doing it five
years hence, but they will still be women
of real ambition and initiative, as well as
women who have the required training
and ability.
One such woman told me that it is be-
cause of this very thing that the present
time is SO interesting for women IN IN
dustry. Great fields of new effort are
still to be traversed by them, new trails
to be opened.
at is still possible for a clever woman
with imagination and energy to be the
very first in some line of work, in some
professional capacity" she said, "and
this is inspiring to many types of mind.
We are all potential Columbuses. When
] see that some woman here or there is the
first to be elected to such a place, the
first to be given such position, | thrill.
| know she is getting more than the mere
salary, the responsibility of the work.
She is getting romance, too, she is a
pioneer. tell you, this is the time to be
alive. Wen never have more wonderful
experience again"

STATE FAIR CLOSES
SUCCESSFUL SHOW
Exhibits More Numerous Than
Ever Before, But Rain Kept
Crowds Away.

This is moving day at the Delaware
State Fair.
After FIVE DAYS, the exhibition closed
last night with a magnificent display of
fireworks, the reports of which were
plainly heard in this city.
The attendance on the last dav was
excellent considering that most visitors
did not know, how well the grounds were
drained The heavy downpour Of the
night before was pretty well dried up by
afternoon and through the use of autono-
hiles on the track, that was gotten into
condition by three O'Clock.
The races were attended by crowd of
about FIVE thousand and there were many
Innovations. An automobile leaped a
hurdle in center field, an aeroplane did
nose dives and other feats, there were
chariot races and running races and harness
events and the members of the
vaudeville teams did several new truns and
twists. adding 10 the attractiveness Of their
turns"
The concessions did good business, but
some Of them. were the heaviest sufferers
from the rain, packed up during yester-
dav and left town. The Others remained
o. catch what returns they could last
evening.
This morning at the fair grounds was
like the breaking up of an encampment.
The employees OF the Rubin and Cherry
shows, were dismantling tents and pack
ing paraphernalia away on wagons pre-
paratory 20 leading II on the special train
of ears that viii carry them to some other
fair next week. Many of the concession
aires are going direct from Elsmere TO Mt
Holly, y. j., where next week will be
fair week.
II the weather man had been more kind,
IL IL expected that the attendance at the
fair this year would have broken all
records. The continuous showers on Mon
day prevented a crowd that was looked
forward 10 be IN excess of other first davs.
somehow this kept the crowd back on
other DAYS, and as a consequence the total
will not toe as great as Sther years.
Ii was the most successful year, how
ever, IN the way of exhibits These swarnped
the various directors and put them
O. their wit 5 end 10 find places to display
them. SO that as an exhibit and demon
stration OF what Delaware farmers can
do in an agricultural way, it was superior
TO any other State Fair ever held there.
