Students at Work on Athletic
Field Look to Alumni
for Aid

Henry R. Isuacs, a prominent
Wilmington attorney, and Rhodes
scholar has been secured as the
speaker for the next meeting of
the Alpha Branch of the State
Teachers Association which will
be held in the Academy Building,
Thursday evening, April 8. This
meeting will be open not only to
teachers but to all friends of edu-
cation.
The boys of the Athletic Asso-
citation under the direction of. Sup
erintendent Norris began last
Friday afternoon to fix up an
athletic field on the ground recent
ly purchased for the new school
site. A road scraper was borrow
ed from the town authorities but
the sod is too stiff for any effective
work to be done that way. A
roller will be borrowed some even
ing this week when the ground is
fit to work upon and a baseball
diamond and track laid out.
The Association will need some
financial aid to complete the work
and will endeavor to enlist the
interest of the alumni association
to this end.
The bill of lading for equipment
to be placed in the portable school
room, has been received. The
building itself is expected daily.

Multitudes of

Pierre S. DUPONT Gives Mastery
Exposition
With Other Distinguished
Speakers He Addresses
Colored Citizens

The need of cooperation on the
part of the people in forwarding
the educational program of the
State was the keynote of a remark
able meeting held in the school for
colored children here last Monday
night with a record breaking
crowd in attendance.
Pierre S. DUPONT made the prin-
cipal address of the evening, ex-
planning simply and clearly just
what the School Code is and what
it means to Delaware. DR.. Joseph
H. Odell, Mrs. Robert J. Nelson,
DR.. S. G. Mitchell and Superinten-
dent Phineas Morris spoke briefly.
A short musical program was
rendered.
William Saunders, president of
the Parent-Teacher Association
presided and presented Mr.. du-
Pont.
"We have discussed the school
code a great deal during the past
year both with our friends and
with our enemies" he said and
proceeded to tell just what the
school code is and why it is so call
ed. "a CODE" he continued is
simply a collection of Laws bear
ing upon any one subject. There's
nothing sinister or terrifying in
the term and it entails no greater
obligation on the people than if
the term school law was used.
Hitherto these laws were passed
at different times and were conse-
quently difficult of access"
He explained how the change
had been brought about, as the re-
suit of surveys really started by
the government as result of the
appalling revelations resulting
from army examinations. The
survey in this state showed that
the schools had been neglected for
years. With regard to the three
+ essentials of a good school system
teachers, pupils, and buildings
Delaware was found too near the
bottom in the list of states. "The
same thing would have been true
25 years ago if we had examined

7 + pom peaceful world in 1914 broke the catas-
~ trophe of war.
Against the diabolical armies of power-mad
enemy the European allies fought desperately and
with supreme courage.
For three years all Europe torn with the
most terrible conflict in the conception of man.
and after these years, when the victory of right
might hung most perilousy in the balance, the United
States entered the war, April 6th 1917
The tired fighters cheered by the fresh vigor
and spirit of and great ally, and the American
men, inspired by the courage and sacrifice of the
allied nations,-together turned back the tide OF
devastation, and the Of civilization triumphed.
But their dearly bought victory is yet to be COM
pleted The clash of arms has hardly died away the
peace treaties have not been signed few at least of
our American men still abroad, and the adjust
ments of civil life have barely begun
Yet already we turn from the task, we-who
have not suffered in any comparable degree to those
nations who gave their all, we-who are so much
better able, (having escaped, as did, the actual
physical and spiritual desolaton OF war;, to raise
afresh before wearied world, the glowing stand
ards of happy and successful democracy.
1t is therefore fitting, that April 9th, the
anniversary Of our entrance into the war, people
should express their gratitude not only to our own
men, who brought honor and glory and peace,
but to the soldiers Of all allies; and it is incum
bent upon us that we rededcate ourselves to the
cause for which they sufered-and died.
Especiallv should we see to it, that the children
who are the present hope and the future guardians
of our democracy shall be impressed with the issues
and the lessons of the war-in order that they may
realize that right living, and education, and devotion
to the common good, are necessary, if government
of the people, by the people,. and for the people"
shall be and remain.
Therefore T. John G.. Townsend Jr., Governor
of Delaware do designate and set apart the day OF
April 6th this year, in this State day OF thought
and resolve as we'll as of gratitude and do urge
that the people, and the educational authorities,
shall so use this day to the best of their ability their
circumstances, and their true and loyal citizenship.
