the youth, and pulled The trigger
Tho bullet entered his abdomen on

that he thought that ordinance was

TURNING POINT IN PRICES

It is easy to exaggerate the signifi-
canoe of the numerous reports of de-
clining prices from all parts of the
country. There is the temptation to
assume that because one or two COM
modities have been marked down to
pre-war levels all commodities will
be. But that is an utter fallacy.
Nothing short of a cataclysmic dis
turbance of commerce, industry and
finance could bring about a pre-war
scale of prices. Such a miracle is only
to be won at the cost of panic, bank
ruptcy and unemployment The coun-
try can be well content with a grad
ual decline in the cost of living. The
slow way is the normal way, the only
safe way. Happily it has begun.
There can no longer be any doubt
that the peak of high prices has been
reached. There can no longer be any
Si05I5t that the reduction; pace hes hes
set in. Commodities win henceforth
be no higher. No better news could
be desired than that after about five
years of unprecedented imitation the
turning point has arrived, and that
the price downward will henceforth
be steadily downward.
The causes are complex and numer-
Gus. Some experts say that the cur
tailment of credits was the deciding
factor Others that the public disin-
clination since last May to pay ex-
travagant prices for anything was
mainly instrumental in bringing about
the change. In any case, the public
has had its lesson. There is not likely
to be a return to former recklessness
and extravaganza in buying.

It was announced from the Offices

week that their holdings in the Lib
erty Brand Canning Company. which
owns two of the most modernly
equipped vegetable and fruit packing
plants on the peninsula, had been dis
posed Of to a syndicate headed by AL
fred l. dupont of Wilmington.
The senior Mr.. Alice, when asked as
to his future plans, stated that he
would at once open an Office in the
Munsey Building in Washington, d.
c., where he would represent the In
vestment Banking House of McBee,

Broadway, New York City. The ex-
United States Senator, however, i'm
pressed on his interviewer that he
would still retain his home in Dover,
at least the week-ends with
his family and among his many
friends in Kent county.
It is understood that the junior Mr.. /
Alice, though he is admitted to prac-
ice law in other States, will retain
his interests in Dover, and further
pursue the study of his profession,

SPARE The QUAIL

The reed and rail bird season, now
at its end, has been extremely unsat-
isfactory to the hunters, the birds
were scarce and the bags small. Grad
ually the man with the gun is eXter-
minating our birds and game, and it
is almost safe to predict that within
twenty years these birds that feed
in the marshes will have become eX-
tinct. Thirty years ago reed birds
were so abundant that they almost
obscured the sun when they arose in
I focks. and rail were so plentiful that
/ $50 or 200 have been shot on a single
tide on the marshes along the Della
ware. Today the hunter that kills 10
or Is is considered in great good
luck.
1t is almost tragic to consider the
reckless way in which the game birds
of the State have been killed, until
they have almost reached the vanish
ing point. There are still few quail
remaining in Delaware, but all of the
other game birds have been destroyed,
if we expect the beach birds that come
for few days in midsummer, or the
migratory snipe that stop for rest and
food on their passage to and from
the north.
Why the farmer will permit the de-
struction of the quail when they are
so valuable an aid is one of those
inexplicable things that seem to have
no solution. We are again approach ]
ing the open season for these splend- /
id game birds and it is barely possible /
that more than a very few of them /
will escape the drive, which opens in I
November and continues for several |
weeks.
1t is shown by reports from the Ag- !
ricultural Department, and repeated |
year by year, that the quail destroys |
slugs and insect life of almost ali
kinds, especially that which is harm
ful to crops or vegetation, and yet
with such scientific assurance, which
the facts amply prove, there is little
effort made to spare these noble, use
full birds which in the crisp days of
set the hunters blood ting
ling as they rise with a "whirr" be-
fore his retriever and are away in a
twinkle.
With the highly trained setter or
pointer and the magazine gun which
make it possible to exterminate al
most half a convey on the rise, the
quail has little chance to escape
and very soon, must go the
way of all the other wild feathered
owl, while the enemies of the grow
ng crops. left unmolested, rapidly
What a shame that our peo- g.,
lie are so short-sighted. what a crime I
hat they encourage the killing of
hese birds instead of uniting to pro-
ect and preserve them. N
