ber of years at the Northminster

tor of the latter church he was
offered the managing editorship

and Wallace, served with distinc
I tion in the World War

Council Hastens Work
of Water Extension
Provide Means to Liquidate Debt
Ordinance Increases Mini.
mum Rate and Raises
Maximum Allowance

In order to help meet the ex-
pense Of the extension of the
water system of the town together
with the interest on the bonded
Indebtedness incurred by~>its in
stallatiOn, Council at the regular
meeting on Monday night voted to
increase the water rate. Hereafter
the minimum yearly rate will be
SIS instead of $40. At the same
time the maximum amount of
water permitted will be 5000 gall
Ions per quarter instead of $500
as heretofore.
The excess water rate which
has been subject to sliding scale
of 25c to 15c according to the
amount used, has also been
changed to a fixed amount, 25c
per 1000 gallons. The ordinance
fixing the above rates had its>first
and second readings on Monday
evening.
Work on the water plant addi-
tion is being pushed rapidly. The
water demands during the past
week have taxed the present
plant beyond capacity so that it
was necessary to cut off some of
the larger users on Monday morn
ing. Patrons have been urged re-
peatediy to- avoid water waste un-
til the extension is completed but
apparently little heed is paid tc
these requests.
A calamity like that at Lewes
yesterday would spell ruin for the
town with the present water sup
ply and reckless waste. House
holders are urged by Council tt
take every precaution to avoit
such danger.

ATTEMPT
ENTRANCE TO
LOCAL STORES
Hold-up Prank Of College
Students

ANY noise now IN store or dwell
ling is likely to jiggle a nervous
trigger finger and scatter death
or destruction or both to the
clumsy bunglers who for the past
week have been attempting en-
trance to the local stores.
Two attempts have been made
to enter the Newark Department
Store via the cellar, both of which
were foiled by the burglar alarm.
The store of Louis Handloff was
likewise tried and the Columbia
Grafonola shop. At the latter
place rear window was pried
open and a ladder with which to
enter other stores was borrowed.
Mr.. l. H. Sortman, the proprietor,
is of the belief that the intruders
were frightened off, for nothing of
value was missing.
Suspicious noises heard at Sol
Wilson's store by William Smith
and by the night operator at the
telephone exchange led-to the be-
lief that an entry was attempted,
Mr.. Wilson was called but a thor
ough search failed to reveal any
trace of burglars. The windows
here are barred and heavy lock
has been placed upon the front
door.
Two holdups, those of Lyman
Reed, who was relieved of several
dollars in money, and Clarence
Evans, a college student, early
Sunday morning, created MO little
excitement. In each case three
men held up and searched the
victim. The latter case, it later
developed, was prank of college
students who restored young
Evans property yesterday after
noon after full confession ant
apology had been made to tht
town authorities.
The attempted burglarization O.
stores is considered a serious
matter and movement is about t,
be started it is understood, to pro
vide for protection at night.

In a recent edition of the Balti-
more Sun a specific work well
done in the Newark Grammar
School is used to illustrate the
value of the project method in
education.
Miss Florence E. Bamberger,
Associate Professor of Education
at Johns Hopkins University in
an interview covering the merits
of the project method cited the
publication of the Grammar
School News as a typical project.
She says, Zone day the teacher of
the Eighth Grade in the Newark
(Delaware) Grammar School
brought to class a number of
newspapers, distributed them
among the pupils, and it was not
long before every child in the
room began to get interested in
the whole process of editing and
publishing papers. Later one
pupil suggested that the class OF
school might try to publish q
paper. The result was that fol
the past year the class has pub
lished a four-page monthly paper

COLLEGE STUDENTS
TAKE SERUM
Authorities Take Every Pre-
caution to Safeguard
Health

Inc presence OIL TOUR cases VI
typhoid fever among the college
students and the death of Robert
M. Walker, of Hockessin, has
been the occasion of much alarm
to parents throughout the State
who have sons or daughters en-
rolled as students, and has like
wise been the occasion for the
spread of alarming and ground
less rumors concerning conditions
particularly at Delaware College.
Rigid investigation of sanitary
conditions there conducted at the
instance of the College authorities
upon report of the second typhoid
case there, by local and State
health officials under direction of
DR.. Herbert J. Watson, State
Bacteriologist, failed to disclose
anything that would indicate a
source of infection. Blood tests
were taken of dietitians, walters,
cooks, and all who have to do with
the handling of the food, in order
to find out whether or not there
was a typhoid carrier" among
them. None was found and since
repeated tests have proved the
water supply to be pure, other
clues were sought.
The milk supply secured from
the College Farm was thought to
be above suspicion until it was
disclosed that several weeks ago
when the supply was inadequate,
it was augmented by milk secured
from the local creamery. This
was not pasteurized and may pos
sibly be the source. Early in the
fall four or five cases developed
among the townspepole and those
in the adjacent country. 1t is
now thought that they may have
contracted the disease from 6
common source.
This questionable milk supply
was secured for only a little
while. When the facts became
known, the College secured thu
additional milk needed from thu
Clover Dairy in Wilmington, thu
purity of which is guaranteed
The College herd has since beer
augmented by the purchase of fiv
COWS, and will soon be able IL
supply all demands of both col
leges. To further safeguard tn
health an opportunity was at
forded all students yesterday t.
be inoculated against the disease
They assembled in the Lounge a
a stated period in the Afternoon
when the two physicians admin
istered the serum. The cost of tn
serum was the only charge to tn
students. The majority of thos
not inoculated Within the past fey
wears took the serum which VII
