Newark Has Exceptionally
Quiet Fourth of July

The Fourth Of July in Newark
passed off very quietly. No cele-
bration Of any kind marked the
day. Many Of the homes displayed
flags, some of the citizens invested
in various noisemaking devices not
barred by ordinance of Town
Council, and some of those just
outside the town limits celebrated
at intervals all week. Compare
lively few sparklers, firecrackers or
other distinctively Fourth ofIJuly
fireworks were seen.
Many of the townspeople attend
ed the races in Wilmington, where
the Continental Band played; many
went to Charlestown for the week
end and some attended the country
fair in Smyrna in the evening.
Two ball games between the Pail
Mall and Yorklyn clubs attracted

AUTO TRUCKS COLLIDE
NEAR COOCH'S BRIDGE
Fatal Result Averted by the
Presence of Mind of
Driver

What might have been a very
serious, perhaps fatal, accident was
averted by the presence of mind Of
George Carter when on Thursday
evening a truck belonging to Rep
resentative William Dean and
driven by a Negro known as
"Pie,'' crashed into Mr.. Carriers s
machine in front Of Mrs. j. O. G.
Duffy's residence near Cooch s
Bridge.
The Dean truck, which had been
borrowed by "Pie' to take party
Of Negroes on a joy ride, was pro-
ceeding at such an extremely high
rate Of speed that it was, according
to competent witnesses who exam
ined the situation carefully, going
on three wheels for nearly twenty
yards before striking the Carter
truck. Quick action on the part of
Mr.. Carter who was going very
slowly, in shifting his machine to
the extreme right side Of the road,
lessened the force of the shock.
Mrs. Carter's head struck the top
Of the machine when the crash
came and she was injured some
what but was able to walk to the
home of Mrs. Duffy who admin
istered first aid. The other occu-
pants of the car, Misses Eethel
Bookhammer and Dorothy Rust of
Lewes, Miss Grace Weeks Of Clay
mont, and Mr.. Carter escaped with
out injury.
The Dean truck was overturned
by the fOce of the impact and the
Negroes pinned under it. County
Superintendent Wilbur H. Jump of
Middletown, and James A. Nickel
vey, who happened to drive along
at this time, assisted Mr.. Carter in
righting the truck and liberating
the men who were miraculously un-
injured. One of them, apparently
terrOrized, ran away at top speed
from the scene of the accident and
as far as could be learned, is still
running. The others helped to push
the truck out of the roadway and
then departed. Mr.. McKelvey
brought the occupants of the Car
ter truck to Newark and A. F
Fader's wrecking outfit brought
both trucks to his garage for re
pairs.

MAKES STIR
RING APPEAL FOR
MODERN SCHOOLS
DR.. Thomas E. Finegan Sounds
Keynote of Summer
Session

The keynote Of the Summer
School Lecture course was sounded
last Thursday evening in a lecture
delivered by DR.. Thomas E. Fine
gan, Commissioner of Education,
State of Pennsylvania. DR.. Fine
gan put the question squarely to
Delaware people: "In a world Of
modern things why can't we have
modern schools for our children?"
"The United States as a whole is
spending more for building of
highways this year," he declared,
than the amount being expended
for all kinds Of education, and
every educator wants it to be so
only by school buses, transporta-
ton and consolidation can we
achieve modern things in the school
rOOm.'
DR.. Finegan made a strong ap-
peal for educational equality for
the boy and girl of the city and of
the country. "Our school popula-
ton is about equally divided," he
said. "We have practically twelve
million boys and girls in the city
and twelve million in the country.
The constitution of forty-seven of
our states has a clause which reads
something like this: The State
of shall maintain an eff
cient system Of public schools
which shall be free to the people of
the commonwealth. 1t clearly i'm
plies that there shall be no dis
tinction in the opportunity afford
ed country and city children.
But we all know the wide diff
ferences in opportunity that con-
fronts the boy and girl according
to the chance location Of his par
ents' residence. We must recognize
that we can never do justice to
country children, we can never

THREE WEEKS LECTURE COURSE NOW
in PROGRESS AT SUMMER SCHOOL
MARCUS l. MOHLER AND DALLAS LORE SHARP HERE THIS WEEK
Mrs. Salo Friedewald, Popular Interpreter of
Modern Literature, to Give
Number of Readings

The three week lecture course in
connection with Delaware College
Summer School, Of a grade un-
paralleled in the history of a Del
aware community, opened in New
ark on Monday evening with a lee
ture on the value Of Music Appre-
citation in the School Curricula, by
Marcus Louis MOhler Of Teachers
College, Columbia University.
Mr. MOhler began with story as
used to stress the things Of signif-
canoe in selection of music. The
story told, Larry the Gypsy
gave the setting for "The Hun
garian Dance No. 5" by Brahms.
The story itself prepared the group
for an appreciation of the chang
ing rhythm of the music of the
Gypsy. Further rhythmic types
were then brought into contrast
with the selections Of music used,
followed by an outline procedure of
method used in teaching the ap-
probation Of picture, a poem, and
a selection Of music, three types of
art which are closely related. The
stress in this instance was placed
upon the element of description
which was found to be common to
the picture, poetry and music. The
music used in this procedure was
Part II, Of Schubert's Unfinished
Symphony. Then followed study
of poetry and music, both in con-
templative mood, in this case the
music chosen being the "Nocturne
in E Minor" by Chopin.
Mr.. Mohler in a very brief way
illustrated certain types Of form
underlying music material, con-
vincing his hearers that a knowl-
edge Of form underlying any ma
terial enhances our appreciation
Of it.
In the latter part Of his lecture
the speaker turned his attention to
the little children illustrating that
the four types Of study in appre-
citation demonstrated for use in the
upper elementary and high school
grades can be taught to first grade
children. Type for type the same
forms of music were reduced to
the comprehension Of little folk, by
means of selections which in addi-

ton to the quality Of dignity pos
sessed the charm Of simplicity.
On Tuesday evening Dallas Lore
Sharp, the eminent writer, educa-
tor, naturalist, delivered his widely
discussed lecture in Education in
Democracy -
Beginning with Friday evening,
Mrs. Augusta Friedewald will give
five readings, selections from mod
ern literature. Mrs. Friedewald
came to Delaware for the first time
last summer and won for herself
many admirers throughout the
State who hail her return with en-
thusiasm. Far more than a reader
of marked ability, Mrs. Friedewald
brings to her audiences the world s
best literature, interpreting modern
masterpieces in a way that brings a
relaxation Of the wealth of our
literature to everyone. Her sub
jects, in the order named, are ::
Sherwood" by Alfred Noyes;
"The Heart Of an Orphan" by
Amanda Matthews; "The Travel
ing Man," by Lady Gregory !;
What Every Woman Knows" by
James Barrie; "Peer Gynt," by
Henrik Ibsen.
On Sunday evening Mrs. Friede-
wald's reading will be preceded by
a half-hour sacred concert, ar
ranged by Henry Hotz, basso, of
Philadelphia. Mr.. Hotz is director
of music in the Advocate M. E.
Church, Germantown. He will be
assisted by Miss Elizabeth Porter
Earle, Soprano, of Philadelphia.
Miss Earle has recently filled an
engagement as soloist with Leman s
Symphony Orchestra on the Steel
Pier at Atlantic City. Miss Airline
Smith, of Philadelphia, will be the
accompanist.

journal, who achieved national
prominence during the war by his
activity in unearthing German in,
trigue, will talk on the National
Campaign. All entertainments will
begin promptly at seven-thirty and

SERVICE MEN TO
RECEIVE MEDALS
NEXT TUESDAY
TO BE DISTRIBUTED AT THE
LEGION MEETING
Program to Be Present.
ed--Continental Band
to Furnish Music

Plans are being formulated for
the presentation Of medals to the
young men in this vicinity who
were in any branch of the service
during the World War. These
medals, awarded by action of the
State Legislature, are now in the
possession of Representative Will
liam D. Dean, who is making ar
engagements for the formal presen-
tatiOn at the next meeting of 1t.
J. Allison O'Daniel Post No. 6,
American Legion. This will be held
at the Armory next Tuesday
evening.
The list of those in this district
entitled to these medals was mis-
laid by Representative Lyons and
this fact has delayed the presenta-
ton. While the presence of this
list would greatly facilitate the dis
tribution, it is not absolutely nee
aSsary, since on each medal is en-
graved the name of the recipient,
and Mr.. Dean has decided to pro-
coed without it. 1t is very essential
that every man from this vicinity
who saw service be present at the
Armory next Tuesday evening.
The Continental Band will fur
niSh music for the occasion, the
best speakers obtainable will be Sc
cured for the ceremony, and other
features of interest will be pro-
vided.
Preceding the presentation cere-
mOny, the service men who are
members Of the Legion will meet to
elect delegates to the State conven-
ton which will be held next month.

Prompt Removal of Trash
and Garbage Essential

The chief concern just now of
those who are anxious to conserve
the health of the citizens is to
urge the immediate and regular
removal of all trash and garbage.
Public health education has done
much to spread the gospel of
cleanliness and to urge the ex-
termination Of flies and mosquitoes.
The chief danger in the accumula-
ton Of trash and Of garbage is that
it affords breeding places for these
pests, especially if such accumula-
tiOns contain old tin cans or bottles
in which water may lodge.
