BIRDS SERVE THE EARTH

The earth could get along without
Man, but without Birds. Man is not
essential to the earth; birds are.
Birds are the flying squadrons Of
Nature. doing police duty, now north,
now south. They follow the seasons,
not for comfort, but on duty. Az
summer comes, danger comes from
pests, and SO the birds come. As sum.
mer goes, danger recedes, and the
birds 60 back to their southern duty.
Wherever there is an abnormal out.
break Of insect life, the birds mobi-
lie there to check it. Flying over q
country they can tell by the foliage
Of the trees If they are needed there
withered forests tell them that the
enemy has appeared in force.
Birds are the great planters of the
earth; they seeded vast spaces Of
wilderness, and crowded the crests Of
rocky hills with trees. They are the
guardians Of our orchards and grain
fields. Carnivorous birds, like Eagles,
Vultures, Crows Hawks and Herons,
keep the earth clean of decaying flesh

SEAFORD SCHOOL BOARD PRAISED.

Special Correspondence of Every Evening
Seaford. Feb 9.-H. l.. Stahl, superin-
tendent of schools in Seaford, has re-
ceived the following letter from DIR.
Joseph IL. Odell. president of the Della
ware School Auxiliary Association:
My Dear Mr. Stahl: | cannot tell YOU
how deep is the regret the members of the
Delaware School Auxiliary Association
feel ut being unable to promise aid to
Seaford for the building of new white
school. This situation Is not caused by any
lack of interest or earnestness on the part
of the Scaford Board: we realize also that
Seatord needs a new school as urgently as
any place In Delaware. We believe that
the Seaford people would cooperate TO
their utmost IN securing a new school, but
We are confronted by lack of funds We
have at our disposal only $1,000, 900 for
distribution among white schools. Laurel
has prior claim IN Sussex county because
II had its plans drawn and its bond issue
authorized before the war, and it was only
patriotic obedience to the wishes of the
government that kept Laurel from build
ing at that time. At present their ground
Is secured and their plans are all drawn.
Then of course IT would bc construed aS
favoritlSm to ono part of Sussex county If
We should assist IN building another school
at Seaford quite close TO Laurel and did
nothing for the eastern part of the State. SO
We feel compelled 10 take Lewes under con-
Sideration Beside that We shall have 10
aid the county board very Literally in the
erection of rural schools because the out
lying districts also have q distinct claim
upon our funds.
We could not at present assist Seaford
without taking the money away from Kent
and New Castle counties and giving n dis
proportIonate amount to one section of the
Stata. Mr. du Pont 5 money was given for
the State as whole, and We are irving TO
distribute il IN such a way that the build
ing will act as models for future CON
struction
We hope the situation as If stands al
present will not discourage the people of
Seaford in their devotion to high edu-
cstional ideals. and we trust also that
some WAY viii open II the none too dis
tant future for Seeford TO have the type
OF school which the town needs and de-
serves. Your boar has taken intelligent
and enthusiastic interest In everything
that pertained TO advancement IN edu-
cation. and although YOU do not get your
heart desire at this time. | think YOU
ought TO be praised for what you have
done and ould not In any way be
blamed. | remain
Yours sincerely,
Joseph II. Odell, President"
