WOMAN'S ANCIENT
PREROCATIVE MAKES
HER GOOD CAM
PAICN SPEAKER
Traditional Last Word Not
Necessary at End of
Continuous Speech

Women will make the best cam
paign speakers in the opinion of
Mrs. Arthur L. Livermore, men,
ber of the Republican National
Executive Committee.
They have qualities, she says,
which particularly fit them for
this task. Qualities such as
brevity, sympathy with an audi
ence, adaptability to the mood of
an audience, and the dramatic
sense of knowing when they have
made a closing point as we'll as
the good sense to stop speaking at
that time, make them good poll
tical speakers. In her experience
as chairman of the women's divi-
sion of the New York State Re-
publican party, Mrs. Livermore
has found that women speakers
can Instantly "sense the feel of an
audience" They know just when
to be witty, to be amusing, to be
serious; when to insert the
straight, hard facts, which make
their speeches really worth while
to an audience.
Working on this belief, Mrs.
Livermore originated the idea of
the campaign school, in New
York state some months ago. Two
groups of speakers tour the state,
going into all counties to hold a
school to teach women voters
something of party politics and
the mechanics Of voting as we'll as
giving them facts concerning
candidates. Mrs. Livermore has
done much of this teaching her
self. Now she is arranging for
similar means of getting facts be-
fore Republican women in the
eastern division, including the
New England states, Pennsyl-
vapia, New York, Delaware and
Maryland, for which she is direc-
tor. A flying squadron" includ
ing the chairman of women's ac-
tivties and an organizer, is tour
ing all counties of Maine at pres
ent, speaking to the women
wherever they go.
Through such methods New
York, Massachusetts and Rhode
Island have been well organized.

MOST MIDWIVES COM.
PLYING WITH THE LAW

The new law calling for all mid
wives to procure a license from
the State Board Of Health before
they can continue their work,
which went into effect August l.,
is being fairly complied with &C
cording to returns FLED with the
health officials up to this week.
Last week about forty Of the one
hundred midwives in the State
had presented the State health
officials with an Endorsement by a
regularly licensed physician.
These have received certificate
permitting"them to continue at
work. But without such a recon-
mendation by a physician they are
not permitted to practice. Even
after the license is issued the
midwives will be under the sur
velllance of a graduate nurse in
the employ of the Reconstruction
Commission. This nurse will at
tend a case with the midwife and
ascertain if she knows her busi-
ness and those who are found
lacking will have the license
taken away from them.

Teach the Children
To Be Self Reliant

Some mothers are tired to
death" bringing up a family, and
others seem to get along so easily
and their children turn out so
we'll. The truth is that there is a
hard and an easy way of doing
everything. And if mothers stop
to think and plan the days work
and a method of managing their
children they will not get so tired,
after all. Like other things, "it
is easy when you know how"
The secret of bringing up a
large family properly and yet
easily is having the older children
help with the younger ones. This
does not mean that they are to be
slaves to their baby sisters or
brothers, but merely that they can
help a little just as we'll as tease
their mother with What can | do
now?" In large families, too,
every child is much more indie
pendent that an "only child" for
ech expects to do practically
everything for himself. 1t is the
spoiled child, indeed, that needs a
mother to button or lace its shoes,
comb bobbed hair or butter its
bread.
The vacation days offer a
splendid opportunity to impart
these little lessons. There is not
the usual morning rush TO ge the
youngsters off to school, since the
children have more time to wash
and clothe themselves. BY the
time school reopens. they car
probably take care Of themselves
quite well.
This is one Of the greatest ways
a mother can save herself-teach
her children to do for themselves
1t may take a little extra time in
the beginning to show them anC
insist upon their dressing them.
selves, for example, but it not
only saves a mother much trouble
but actually makes the children
more self-reliant in every way.
Children should be encouraged
to help mother in every way they
can so that she can preserve hel
strength as much as possible fol
the later years in life, when the
children need her guidance anc
companionship more than ever.

RECORD CORN AND
WHEAT CROPS THIS YEAR

A 3,000,000,0OO busheI corn
crop for the third time IN the his.
tory of the country was forecast
by the Department of Agriculture
on the basis of conditions existing
August l. InaSmuch as August !;
the critical month for the crop in
the great corn belt of the middle
west it is uncertain whether the
promise Of a crop almost equal 70
the enormous ones Of 1912 and
1917 will be fulfilled. Improve.
ment was reported during July in
the important corn states with the
exception Of Illinois and as a re.
sula a crop forecast Of 22,OOOOOO.
bushels larger than that predicted
July l was issued.
Spring wheat was adversely al.
fected during July. principally by
rust, and the production forecast
of the crop was reduced 29,OOO,OOVI
bushels from a month ago or to a.
total of 262,OO0.OOO bushels. Th3I
preliminary estimate Of winter
wheat production was 15,OOO,OOo
larger than forecast in July, max
ing the combined crop Of winter
and spring wheat only l4,OOO'VVV
bushels smaller than estimated Al
month ago. The total Of 795,OVV'
600 bushels for the fourth time III
the country's history.
There was improvement in the
potato crop and indications aH
that the crop will exceed 4OO'OOV'
90 bushels for the fourth time II
the cOunrty's history.
The tobacco crop. which haE
been promising from the staF'
has shown additional impro'T
ment and probabilities are thai
will exceed the record crop, pt"E
dsced in 1918, by about 2OO'VV%H

The Days Work

1t is certainly a great misfor-
tune when the daily work of men
or women is so distasterul that
they are glad to dismiss all
thoughts of it as soon as it is
over. The work itself must suffer
in quality, having had no heart
put into it, and the performer of it
sacrifices a large portion of life's
most solid happiness. There is,
however, an opposite extreme that
some truly conscientious people
fall into-that of carrying their
daily business into all their wax
ing hours. There is hardly a
counterbalancing feature in this
habit of mind. If even the work
itself was benefited thereby, there
might be some justification, but
the truth is that every business
duty needs complete liberation
from the strain of it at times.

and all its crew were on the verge
of perishing. Sighting the other
ship, it sent out it's call for drink
ing water, not knowing it was al
ready beyond the limits Of the salt
sea brine. Cast down your bucket
where you are" replied the know
ing skipper.
Just so should all of US "cast
down our buckets where we are"
Our "place' in this world is the
place we occupy. We should fill it
to the best Of our ability, and with
desire to render capable service.
Yet we should place an honest
price on our work, and demand it.
"The laborer is worthy of his
hire" In these days of high
wages, too much emphasis is
placed upon the price, and not
enough upon the value of the
service rendered.

Pleads for Large Entering

in taking care of the applican+s
Some colleges were forced to M.

true of many preparatory schooI,
"The rush. however, promises ~

Probably this will be true of
Delaware college. An announce

ferent course of study open IA
young men and young Women
There is a wide range: Agrjcp,.
ture, arts and sciences, business
administration, teacher trainirr
and four engineering courses Tho
curriculum equals that OF most
other institutions Of the kind and
it is broader than some of them
The announcement says that
tuition is free to residents of Del.
aware. To many a young man or
young woman that is an important
item. 1t should be an attraction n
Delaware young people. Often
this matter of tuition which does
not seem important to person,
wei loft financially is a crucial
deciding point. Some young peo.
pie with the help of free tuition
can go to college who could MT
do so without free tuition. And
of late the tendency among al
our colleges and universities ha,
been to increase the tuition
charges. In some instances these
), rates have been jumped very ma.
terially to several hundred dol.
lars. 1t can thus be seen that
tuition free to Delawareans is an
attraction and a big help.
With the beginning Of the new
academic year Delaware College
will turn over another leaf. A
large entering class would be an
inspiration to the new president
and at the same time it would
show that parents and Young peo.
pie appreciated the opportunities
the State is affording them. =
