Saving Life without Doctors.

How can the citizens of this State save
lives without calling upon the medical
profession for assistance? How can we
save two or three lives each week for the
next ten years without cost to anyone?
What would such saving amount 20 IN
economic value TO the State AZ we'll az IN
an increased population by the time the
next census is taken? Is there any Della
warean who would not do his share IN ad-
vancing the interests of the State IN this
way? Certainly not, provided he be IN
formed as 10 the way in which this can be
done.
All of these lives can be saved, and
more, too, If every citizen viii at all
times keep his mind on what be is doing; If
he will be careful not Il take chances that
may result in personal injury; if he will
guard in every way against the possible
carelessness of others; if he will thirk
ahead Of the possible results Of his acts;
if be will urge every one else TO be careful
and if he will take a personal interest IN
making effective the slogan Delaware the
Safest State" The State is small This
purpose can be accomplished and the fol-
lowing figures willshow in what particular
respects this saving in life can be expected: !:
During the year 1919 there were 81
persons burned 10 death; 1--WE were accl-
dentally killed by poison; six by asphyxia-
ton; is were drowned; 10 were accidental
ly killed by firearms; IS by falls; 20 from
railroad accidents, q by automobile acei-
dents. and more than 20 other deaths re-
suited from injuries Of different kinds.
Impressive as these figures are, they are
away below the totals for either 1917 or
1918.
Will any person deny that if ordinary
care had been exercised by all concerned
the majority Of these deaths would not
have occurred7 Think Of throwing away
life every other day throughout the
year, and year after year, just because we
have not time to be careful. You or your
child may be sacrificed tomorrow DO
your share Act now. Make Delaware
safe.

The flies should all be dead when

are on my head, a-twiddlmg OF
their thumbs. And when, for some
repose, / to my couch repair, they
climb around my nose. and make
me rise and swear. They're ont
of season now, and SO have no ex-
cuse for camping on my brow and
tickling like the deuce. In sum
mer we expect q plague of bugs
and flies; things wouldn't seem
correct if none should greet our
ewes; but when November brings
the frost we've long desired, the
buszings and the stings of insects
make us tired. The flies I'd gladly
teach, il | had half a chance, that
there's a time TO preach, and there 5
time to dance; and there's b
time to crawl upon mortaFs head;
and there's n time to fall and
slumber with the dead, All things,
when out of date, are trying to
the soul; in summertime we hate
10 blow ourselves for coal We do
not love the guy who jests when
Jokes are wrong, nor do we like the

The Osborne school district and the Canyoni district, over the divide. have been annexed to the Warren district. according to information received to- day by C. F. Philbrook, superintend- ent of schools, from the office of the county superintendent The reason for this move is that the Osborne and Canyon districts have lapsed. no school having been conducted there for more than three months.
 This announcement is important to the residents of the outlying dis tricts, who have been unable to send their children to school MT. Phil brook will take immediate steps to open the grammar scrool in these dis tricts and to provide transportation for the older pupils to the high schools in Bisbee
 Some delay may be caused by the lack of grammar school teachers, but enough to start the schools in a few days are expected. A motor truck will be used to bring the high school students from these districts, where there is no such school, to Bisbee
