ed States" says Mrs. de Veyra. II do not mean to infer we are perfect, for we are not. My people have most of the defects, I suppose, that other hu- mans have but at the same time we are far from the people that many Americans have been made to believe. Not only are we Christian people, not ashamed of Throughout the Phil. ippine Islands the people are now working earnestly to. improve them selves and their conditions so they will be prepared to take over their own af- fairs. We all love America for giving us chance to help ourselves and for having promised us our independence. which is one of the dearest desires of the entire citizenship of the islands"
 To American woiuen whose ideas of Filipinos have been founded on Sun day supplement descriptions of wild tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner and evident culture have been reve- lation. She is sought bv women's clubs because of her charming manner as an impromptu speaker on the subject nearest her heart-the women of her country.
 At recent Washington gathering she gave in perfect English a concise account of the work of a wOman's club in Manila which supplies milk to the babies of the poor and trains mothers to care for their young children. She told of another woman's club which has branches all over the Philippine Islands and which maintains day nurseries for the children of the work ing women, provides Christmas cheer for the lepers, the insane and the con victs, and gathers data to influence leg isation for the benefit of Filipino wo- men and children.
 The four little De Veyras, shown in the picture, having attended the puh- lie schools in Manila slipped right into the same grades in the schools of Washington. Even little Mary, the baby of the family, speaks three Ian guages-her native tongue. Spanish and English.
The Little River news., 1920-04-17

Permit us to present the De Veyra family.
 The Hon. Jaime c. de Veyra is the Resident Commissioner from the Phil ippine Islands to the United States and has just been elected to second term of three years As Resident Commits sioner he has a seat on the floor Of the American Congress, the privilege of taking part in debates, although nc vote.
 Commissioner de Veyra has an inter esting wife and four bright Filipino kiddies. The De Veyra family, indivd- ually and collectively, constitute the best argument as to the tact and capa- bilities of Filipinos that the Philippine Islands have in Washington.
 The commissioner is a 100 per cent Filipino, a Visayan, and is one of the foremost leaders of the party in power in the islands. During American occu- patton he has been succesSively gov ernor of his province, member of the Philippine legislature, cabinet mem Der and executive secretary of the islands.
 Like many statesmen of the Philip pines, he was originally newspaper man. He was one of the founders of Fl Nuevo Da of Cebu, the first Fili- pino paper published advocating Phil ippine independence. The paper came under the censorship of General Me Intyre, and on the appearance of the first number the editors were left in the singular position of seeing every prominent article blue penciled.
 Mrs. de Veyra, like her husband, is a ''live wire" in the Philippines cause. She is the best known Filipina in America She is an interesting public speaker and is constantly giving illus trated lectures at women's clubs and other gatherings. Mrs. de Veyra is a publicity bureau all in herself and has put the Philippines on the map, so far as the women folk of Washington con- gressiOnal circles are concerned.

DELAWARE'S PROFESSIONAL
IMPROVEMENT CONFERENCES

Due to the small area of Delaware
it is possible to hold Professional
Improvement Conferences for the
Home Economics Instructors of all
the twenty-one vocational high
schools each month. Sixteen of these
/ twenty-one rural high schools have
opened vocational Home Economics
departments for the first time, this
| year. Due to the prospects of new
school buildings next year, it has
been advisable to seek quarters for
these home economics departments in
any available room. A former mill
inery store, church, town hall and
dwelling go to make up the variety
of housing conditions. The confer
ences are held in a different center
each month. The instructors thereby
CLEAN many ideas for Improving the
appearance and efficiency of their de-
partments. The addresses include
one by the principal of the school
where the conference is held and an
address by an outside Home Econo-
mics educator. Six of the Home
Economics instructors who have done
very clever teaching have given dem
onstrations. These demonstrations
seem to be most helpful to the other
A-As7SA NSSSA . OopCCldlly Wueu the QeIQ-
onstratiOns are rounded out with the
full illustrative reference materials.
Routine matters such as schedules
lesson plans, checking of bills, etc.
are considered. Assignments for out
side study for self government in
teaching are given also, as a part of
the methods course carried on under
the plan for itinterant teacher train
ing.
The Home Economics instructors
have formed Delaware State Home
economics Teachers Association to
include all Home Economics instruc-
tors in the state. There are at the
present time, 1S Vocational Home
Economics instructors and 10 non
vocational home economics instruc-
ors in little Delaware, as well as the

THE ROAD CONTROVERSY
Communicated


A Mr.. Crouch, l understand. of Mil
ton, correspondent for the Milford
Chronicle, objects to personalities
and mud Singing, evidently reserv-
ing same for his own use. He is as
CONSTANT in this as he is in his pet
argument that the improved road
should be built via Milton and Har-
beson-that it would serve more peo-
pie and wealth invested
Fortunately for the public at large
the men who will be responsible for
the route are not afflicted with a mar
row mind or base principles as MIR.
Crouch shows himself to be.
Evidently he imagines the bulk of
wealth and population centers around
Milton and that thru traffic should
receive no consideration but subject
their traffic to a detour via Harbe-
son.
While l am not personally av-
quainted with Mr. Crouch 1 have
heard of the name connected with
the harness and shoe mending busi-
ness of Milton, where re-heeling
shoes receive special personal atten- |
ion.
