SMITH AiUMNE LOYAL.
Delawareans Who Have Attended the
College Have Subscribed 100
Per Cent

According to Mrs. Thomas ". Wilson,
chairman of Delaware for the 81 900, 600,
fund for Smith College, .he Smith alurnna
Of Delaware have subscribed loo per
cent to the fund Aside from the raising
Of the S4oO0,000, Smith College is desir-
Gus and eager and proud of having its
graduates and non-graduates. 1900
strong, loval and true in their support
of the college. Smith College considers
this loyalty an asset of the greatest value
and feels that if there is such spirit and
loyalty to the college in its alumnae
$4,000, 900. or. indeed, any amount of
money that the college needs. and that its
supporters see that it needs, will be
realized.
1t has been a, great pleasure, Mrs.
Wilson stated, to work among the Smith
aIumnas of Delaware At the meetings of
the central committee in Philadelphia
and New York, when plans were dis
cllssed about convincing and urging
alumnae of the college to contribute to
the fund, Mrs. Wilson said that these
discussions were of no value or use in her
work as the alumna in Delaware knew
the need OF the college from the literature
which had been sent ont and IT. was
simply question of how much each one
could possibly give that the Delaware
Smith graduate asked Of herself and then
found out from the chairman the condi-
tlons OF payment, etc., requested by the
college. To work with an alumnH as loyal
and as understanding as this has, indeed,
been an honor and privilege.

SHORTAGE N BERRY
CRATES THREATENED
Berry Acreage Increased, but i is
Said That Factories Have
Cut Down Output.

According to the Nicomico New. OF
Salisbury, the berry growers and shippers
If that and ncighboring counties who
depcnd on the crate manufacturers OF
that vicinity to supply them with con-
tanners are facing shortage IN crates and
baskets which may be difficult for them
to overcome unless immediate action is
taken.
A survey Of the crate and basket fac
tories made within the last ten days re-
vealy the fact that because of the hiQh
cost Of the materials used in the making
Nof crates and the difficulty in obtaining
those materials, the output OF the far-
tories will be so per cent less this wear
than a year ago and that the rates will
cost the farmer from 5J 10 60 cents each
at the least.
The acreage in this vicinity devoted
10 the growing of strawberries this
wear is about 40 per cent greater than
that Of a year ago. and unless those
berry growers who will use crates place
their orders with the factories AZ once they
will doubtless find no crates available.
1t Is estimated that two wears ago
the output of the local factories was
about 100000 crates. Last wear be-
cause of prevailing high costs of la
bor, lumber and hardware the produc-
lion was greatly decreased: but the
season Just approaching will find the
smallest output of crates in this Sec
tion, ever known. IL is said on the
best authority that the factories will
nos produce more than 100000 crates
this year
The manufacturers say that with
the prevailing high costs of labor and
materials they are unable TO make
crates and sell. them ut the prices the
farmers are wiling TO pay, without
losing money.
Five years ago crates were sold and
delivered To the purchaser at 25 cents
each aud the manufacturers made money.
At that time labor could be had at from
% cents TO Sl.lO n dav: labor now costs
from 81 80 Ia 81 25 a day. The hardware
used on a crate costs three cents more
and the tacks and nails used now cost
double the costs of five years ago. L,im-
ber used in the crates has also advanced
greatly, so that the cost of making
the crates Is now much more than double
The old 25 cent selling prize.
OF the 100000 crates which will be
manufactured by the factories in Sauls-
bury and vicinity this year. it IL estimated
that nearly 100000 have already been
sold.
Several Of the mills have ceased
TO manufacture berrycrates and bask-
cts because of the excessive costs, and
Others have cut down their produc-
tion to a minimum, and are giving
their mills over 10 tho making of other
products from which they arc able 10
net greater margins of profit.

One night just M the clock in the hall
downstairs struck IL, tho playroom toys
wv-e surprised to hear rustic in the corner
where tho books wcre kept
Every ono looked ut the book shelf.
The books wcrc all open and the leaves
fluttering a. II the wind was blowing them
From tho leaf OF one book stepped a
pretty girl. 'fWc book people think it timc
We had mn evening to ourselves, she said,
call the toys talk and have good time
while we Of the books can only look on and
listen.
Before you say any more, said some
one from under the shelf II want To say
word for the games Here we stay under
the book shelf while all the fun ie going on
and never word eau we say.
Itwas big block that had jumped from
its box that made this complaint "Thc
games think that they should have nn
evening once in a@while. the block con-
tinucd, and il the hooks have an evening
and we do not there is going TO he trouble.
Up from their boxes jumped the games,
and such a clatter and rattle the toys
never heard. Then ell the books, fearing
they were to bc cheated out OF their
rights, r,,stled and shufIlcd to the edge Of
the shelf with such speed that they all fell
on the floor with bang
Teddy Bear knew something must bc
done at once or the plnyroom would never
know any peace again. Wait minute
and listen to me-" he said. Il am sure We
all can have our fun and still keep order in
the room
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1920-03-09

after talking with Jack, who lives in q
box, md Miss Marie Doll and some other
important playroom folk, we have ooms
TO the conclusion that the books and
games should have an evening all 10
themselves
'Goodl Goodr' said the books. flap-
p,f'g their leaves TO applaud. Good,
goodr' ratified the blocks and games
Teddy Rear waited for them 10 be quiet
again. I'VE have decided that IL would be
very nice for the games and books 10 give
an entertainment one night week and
all the toys will sit very still and listen.
Each picture in the book can tell it's story
and each game can give an exhibition
showing us just how IL Ia played
First We will have game and then n
story, and so am sure we all shall te very
happy How does that euit you game and
book folk"
The books and games said they were
satisfied aud one night each week after
that all the tops sat around the room
the games played.
What a clever idea that was, Teddy
Bear. said Marie Doll ''It is just like
real people going to the theater. ! went
once with my little mother TO see the trick
dogs and cats.
$50 did L. " said Teddy, that was where
got my idea Now we playroom folk
have thcatcr without having to pay the
actors. and the books Snd games think
they are having fun when they arc really
giving an entertainment
''But don't let them know that he
cause il is great deal easier TO do things
just for fun than when you-call II work. :"
mo. indeed. wont say a word, said
Marie Doll, 'for | just love 10 go To the
theater."
