Elect of Indiana.

XE ts ARE EN- entering cdn new 19 3ra year and
with many profound problems
which must be solved. The war has had
such an effect on our activities and our
viewpoints that readjustment is neces-
sary, but in reaGjustlng affairs we should
bear in mind that we must go slowly to
be successful; we must take into consid
erntiOn the public welfare and must work
to the end of serving the public good.
In the administration Of the affairs of
the State of Indiana during the new year
and during the next four years, an effort
viii be made to carry out this policy
through honest and earnest endeavor and
a deep sense Of responsibility and faith
fulness to the public trust.
Indiana has a glorious past and every
indication of a bright future. Let us
strive to keep our State liz a position
among States and to keep its record al
ways bright.
With every hope that the new year will
be one of prosperity and achievement,
greet the people OF Indiana. who have
seen ct to place in my hands the respon-
sibilities of the chief executive of their

KENT COUNTY EXHIBITS
PRODUCTS At STATE FAIR
KENT COUNTY FARM BUREAU
PRODUCTS AT STATE FAIR
Boys and Girls Club to Have a De-
partment Under Miss Helen Com
stOck-SOy Bean Exhibit

A~~--~-N
No one who expects to visit the
Delaware State Fair this week, and
Of course everyone is going, should
miss spending some time in the build
ing devoted to the interests of Della
ware College and the county Farm
Bureaus. The exhibits in this build
ing are distinctive from the rest of
the fair exhibits in that, with the eX-
ception of some o fthe exhibits from
the Boys and Girls Clubs, nothing
is shown for prizes, and every part
of the many exhibits is devoted to il
lustrating some approved method Of
fam practice. In other wOdrs, the
material is educational. A trip
through this building will be like TAX
ing a short course at college. Both
material and instructions will be
there, as the entire force of the Ex
tension Staff of the College will be on
hand to explain the exhibits and the
lessons which they illustrate.
Kent County has always been. able
to hold. her own at the State Fair,
and expects to be we'll represented
this year. The material which will be
in place in the exhibit of the Kent
County Farm Bureau, will be largely
taken from the demonstration pro-
iects which the Bureau has been car
rying out this season in different
parts of the county. A collection of
soy beans taken from demonstration
plots VIII illustrate the adaptability of
his croU to all parts of Kent county.
/ The advances that Kent scounty i
making as a center for pure bred hogs
will be shown by charts, and photo
graphs. The boys and girls of Kent
have more than held their own in the
past. Not satisfied with winning
state championships, they have gone
ahead and taken highest hOnors at the
Eastern States Exposition, and since
many of these same youngsters viii
again compete for honors at Whining
ton next week, it must be conceded
that Kent county will be in for an
other share of the championship hon
ors in this department. The boy:
have a prize worth striving IOr thi!
year as the three boys from the en-
tire State who win highest hOnOrs il
the dairy cattle judging contest, viii
be awarded a free trip to the Nation
al Dairy Show at Chicago next Oc-
tober. With such veterans as Stanley
Short, Robert Watson and Paul Ske
wis in the running, Kent county
should come pretty near winning the
clsire team membership.
Under the direction of Miss Heller
L. Comstock, county Club Leader, tbs
girls in many sections of the count!
have done remarkable work in can
ming, baking, and sewing. The re
suits of the girls efforts will be OF
display in the Farm Bureau building
at the fair, and teams of the girl
will demonstrate some of the methods
which they have followed during th'
year. Their exhibit of canned fruit i
expected to be one of the features O
the entire exhibit.

DEVILS HoPYARn BECOMES
 OBJECT OF STATE INTEREST

Now that the state park commission
 has purchased the tract of land near the
 village of Millington known as the Devils
 Hopyard, new interest is attaching to this
 region. In the good weather in summer on a pleasant Sunday, automobiles are
 seen vending their way over the roads
 to this secluded spot to enjoy the pleas
 ures of a picnic. Some have been so enthusiastic as to style the place the Yellowstone park of Connecticut.
 Former Corporation Counsel Francis A.
 Parker of Hartford, whose forbears came from Hadlyme, just little removed from 1 Millington, has many interesting things | in mind concerning the Devils Hopyard. MT. Parker says that at some time before 1900, according to tradition, hops were
 raised on a small clearing comprising about fourth of an acre, lying beside the highway in the midst of the section now called the Hopyard. This small clearing is still visible, but the tradition unfortunately, has not preserved the name of the hop grower. Places where hops were grown were then called hop. | yards and one such place, just over the Hopyard. There can be little question took it's name from the small clearing ir it's midst, once planted to hops, and. ir accordance with the usage, denominated : ihopyard. Its use, in common speech dates back to some indeterminate tim, prior to 1900, not earlier, perhaps thai the time of the Revolution. The highwa, leading through the section was, however usually called the Kettle Hill road unti

PROTEST ASSESSMENTS FOR SEWER

In order to use 1t it would be necessary to use a pump to force the sewerage up to the sewer. Furthermore we have IGivate drain emptying into the Thames river and it has worked continuous for twenty-five years or more without any trouble. He couldn't see how the sewer
 is of any benefit to either those on the east side or the west side of the street
 The next protest was entered by Mara chelo Montesi who owns property on
 West Thames street. MT. Montesi said his foundation is sixteen feet below the street. His sewerage is now disposed of in cesspool. The sewer is of no use to him.
 Aldama Laf1eur who owns property at No. 37 West Thames street, informed ! the committee that she has private sewer and that the new sewer is of no use to her.
 I don't know that derive any benefit | from the sewer, said D. T. Shea, a prop erty owner at No. 67 West Thames street. He said he had provided a cess | pool for his property. MT. Shea further stated that he can't see why he should l be taxed to any great extent. He doesn't l think the advantage is so great that the assessment should be large. He thought 1 the city should bear the whole expense | John Duhaime, another property hold CT, also protested the proposed assess l ment.
 Mir. Murphy again took the floor and | said that the sewer would never have | been built if the city had waited for z petition. He said there was not houst
 on the east side of the street that car I be benefited.
 The hearing adjourned about o'clocl | after the mayor announced that the pro
 tests will be given careful consideration by the committee.
 The following are those upon whor
 the city proposed to lay assessments fo
 building the sewer:

FOR INDIGESTION Mi -O-Na Is Guaranteed To
 Promptly Relieve Stomach Distress.

People go on suffering from little stomach troubles for years and imagine they have a serious disease.
 They -over-eat and force on the stomach a lot of extra work. But they never think that the stom- ach needs extra help to do extra werk. | If these people would take Mi-O-Na Tablet with or after meals it would be great big help to the stomach in its strain of everwork. Mi-O-Na helps your tired out stom- ach to do it's work and banishes the | cause.
 l No matter what you eat or drink Mi-O-Na will sweeten your sour stom-
 ach. and stop gas belching in five minutes. The heaviness disappears
 and the stomach is greatly aided in its
 work of digestion.
 And Mi-O-Na not nly promptly re- lieves all distress but if taken regular ly will banish indigestion.
 Druggists everywhere and Lee Osgoed Co. sell Mi-O-Na on the money back plan.

GROToN IRON WORKS FINANCES BEFORE WASHINGTON COMMITTEE

Claims of the c. w. Morse Company that failure of the shipping board to pay for the construction of ships had re- suited in a receivership for the Grotofi Iron Works, of Connecticut, were denied before house Investigating committee in Washington, Saturday, by-W. w. Nottingham, assistant counsel for the board.
 The Morse Company was overpaid, the witness said, adding that contract books of the Groton plant had disap- peared and that no effort had been made to recover them. MT. Nottingham said the Morse Company representatives had de- clared the books contained 'old records" " Robert A. Dean, general counsel of the | board, testified that several efforts had | been made to lift the receivership and
 that William G. McAdoo had appeared | before the board last fall in behalf of the
 Morse Company. On March 30, he said | the board had agreed to advance S25O. i 900 to the Groton Iron Works, but thi! 1 decision was reversed Saturday. Re- | ceivers will be reinstated and construc | tion begun again, he said.
