The Farm Bureau of Glendale will
hold its next meeting on Wednesday
evening, February 5, at 730 D. m, al
the White Hall. All farmers who are
interested in the diversification OF
crops and securing good markets for
same should be present to participate
in the discussions. Then, too, there is
a social feature in the Farm Bureau
meetings.
After listening for several months
for constructive criticism of the new
school code, which its opponents nave
bitterly assailed autocratic and sore
displeasing, / am somewhat disposed
to say that after all the people realize
that a change in our educational
regime was expedient and justifable.
Although any lukewarm admirer or
supporter of the measure will admit
that there are imperfectiOns in it, we,
nevertheless. say that it far surpasses
the old, antiquated system of educa-
ton that was legislated out of exist
ence. being in vogue in 1928 when
charity was a potent factor in devel-
Oping the minds of the young. But
in the complex times we must have
system of education in Delaware
that will do the following things:
Evenly Distribute the taxes of the
county; standardiZe the curriculum;
provide in a few years a more COM
petent teaching staff or corps; bring
investors to Delaware; be conducive
to community gatherings; give to the
rich and the poor alike equal advan-
tages; compel the slothful or inactive
TO be more diligent; and adhere to the
principles of a Democracy. If the
people of Delaware conscientiously
feel that our new system will not, af-
ter we adjust conditions, bring better
citizens and happier homes, then get
busy and help provide something that
will; but if the general principles of
the code will help bring about the
aforesaid requirements, then be men
enough to be thinkers and cast petty
politics and personal prejudices aside
Lastly, 1 am sure JnaI every teacher
feels that the cooperation of the par
ents in school work is urgently need
ed and that every effort should be
made to have the public money spent
where it is needed the most, and will
be prolific of the best results attain
able.

RIDDINt DELAWARE OF TIE
DREAD DISEASE TUBERCULOSIS

DR.. Charles Il. Keene, executive sec
retary of the Delaware State Tuber-
culOsis Commission, is delivering a
series of lectures before the farmers
institutes on the subject of tubercu-
losis in the State and the measures
necessary to prevent it and to stamp
1t out. He lectured Tuesday afternoon
at milton and wednesday NOR a.
Lewes, before a meeting there. In
part, he said:
I'VE are gradually overcoming the
great white plague tuberculosis; the
death rate from it having decreased
80 per cent in the past fifteen years,
but we shall never really conquer it
until we realize that it is not only pre-
ventable and durable. but that it is
cheaper in dollars and cents to get rid
of it than it is to endure it.
The tuberculous COW which spreads
one type of this disease is not only a
menace to our babies but it is usually
kept at a financial loss. A large part
of the feed which goes into her is used
in fighting her disease instead of in
producing milk. No sick animal is
profitable. She is, too, danger to
the well animals in the book-be mer-
ciful and save the babies"
DR.. Kecne also spoke on Health in
the Farm Home" discussing the lo-
cation of the house as regards dryness
of soil, protection from winter winds,
the value of sunshine, air, ETC., and of
the best means Of protecting the water
supply, of refuse disposal and protec-
tion from flies. "One of the greatest
factors in keeping well is plenty. of
fresh air in the house The windows
should be kept open whenever possi-
BILE and II the house is heated by hot
air see that plenty of fresh air is let
into the flues."
1T is particularly important that
there should be plenty of fresh air
about if there is any sickness in the
house; not only will fresh air build
- the strength and resisting powers
the well members of the household
y that they are much less likely to
cJntract the disease if it is catching,
but the sick person will recover much
more quickly"

WOOD HAS VARIED
CIVIL EXPERIENCE
ADMINISTRATIVE QUALITIES ARE
TESTED AND PROVED IN HAN
DLINo GREAT BUSINESS
PROBLEMS.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

From time to time people ask,
What has been the administrative
and business experience Os Leonard
WOod2 What has been his experience
with men outside of the army7 What
does he know about conditions in the
different parts of the United States
and In our overseas possessions? Has
ne any thorough knowledge Of foreign
affairs and Of our foreign relatlOns"
The administrative qualities Of
Leonard Wood have been tested and
proved. No American living has been
tried more thoroughly than he In COM
plex fields Of constructive civil work,
administrative work of the highest
order which carried with it the neces-
sity for the exercise of keen business
acumen.
The republic of Cuba, built upon
firm democratic foundations, is a mon
ument to the administrative ability of
Leonard Wood. In the Philippines is
to be found another monument to his
craftsmanship.
Leonard Wood graduated in medi-
cine from Harvard University in 1884
and served for more than a year In
one of the great hospitals, later to
take charge Of the charity depart
ments in a section of the city of BOs-
ton where the poor lived.
Not long after the completion OF
Woods work In Boston he became an
assistant surgeon in the army. coming
into contact with the western plains
man, the miner, the people generally,
and giving much of his time to the
work Of assisting the Indians and to
a study of the problems of irrigation
and reclamation.
Then for Leonard Wood there came
four years in California. He covered
the state many times in pursuance Of
his duties and extended his field as
occasion required into the states Of
the Northwest. Then for two years he
was in service in the South, having
headquarters in Georgia.
From the South Leonard Wood went
to the city OF Washington, where his
work brought him into daily contact
with Grover Cleveland. Then he had
the same intimate relations with VIII
liam Mckinley and the men Of his
time.
Then came the Spanish war and the
active campaign In Cuba as the col
oneI Of the regiment Of rough riders
Of which Theodore Roosevelt was the
lieutenant colonel.

Leonard Woods supreme administra-
tive duties began. He was made the /
governor Of the city Of Santiago and
a few weeks later Of the entire east
ern half Of Cuba.
Under Wood profteering was abol- (

the fact that the people were Inn
Doverished TO the point Of starva-
ton and had been dying by thousands I
for the lack Of the things which Wood /
quickly provided.
Then there came the rehabilitation
Of the municipalities. the establish

STATE DEMOCRATS ARE
LAYING GROUNDWORK
lRy United Pressl

St. Paul, Feb. 17.-Groundwork OF
the democratic campaign in Mime
sofa this year was to be laid here late
today when the Democratic State
Central committee convened.
The committee will make arrange
ments for a state convention to be
held probably in March.
Precinct and county conventions
also will be arranged for.
The committee is expected to dis
cuss possible candidates for state Off
ces and delve into the national SIT
uation to a certain extent.
F.. B. Lynch, Minnesota national
Democratic committeeman, who has
spent most of his time in New York
recently, was here for the meeting.
Policies of the democratic body in
the Minnesota state campaign were
to be gone over and tentative plans
for the campaign discussed. A state
platform will be developed for pre-
sentation to the state convention.

When Presidents Rested.

President Buchanan used to 50 home
t. Wheatland for a bit of rest and wab
q familiar figure in summer time at
Bedford Springs, where he walked
about unattended, just like private
citizen. and talked with anybody who
had the hardihood to approach him.
Grants stay at Long Branch gave the
resort popularity as 1.-The summer capt.
tal." Cleveland, one of the hardest
worked of presidents, because he at
tempted to give personal attention to
details that no president of today can
possibly examine at first hand, liked
to bury himself at Buzzard's bay and
fish with old cronies. Mr.. Roosevelt,
who seemed to carry his load jaunttly,
managed to get some respite from
public cares by open air exercise. An
old guide in the Adirondacks still
boasts of having rowed Mckinley for
seventeen hours in single day
through lakes and rivers in the blessed
quiet OF the north woods.

featist campaign being waged in Bon
net Rouge, under direction of Louis
J. Malvy. Then there were impltca-
tions of a collision with Bolo Pasha.
1t was Clemenceau who tricked the
master plotter. He started of with
a speech in the senate against Malvy,
minister of finance, who has backed
by Caillaux. One after another OF
the alleged traitors fell under the
merciless expose by the administra-
ton until on. January Is, 1918, after
he had piled up volumes of evidence

in the trials Of Malvy, Humbert, Bolo

lodged in the Prison De Sante, charg-
