of men and women are beginning the
four-year cycle that leads to gradua-

to the college it is not less important

an indelible impression-a definite
contribution-for good or bad-upon
the history of the institution-for the
history of an institution is made up
of the sum total of the contributions
of the individual classes.

Delaware Boys and Girls
Win High Honors

The Boys and Girls champion club
members of Delaware who spent last
week in Camp Vail at the great East
ern States Exposition returned home
Saturday, each member receiving a
gold medal given by the Eastern
States Exposition in recognition of
the individual achievement each had
attained in his or her respective club
work during theepast year. OF the
ten northeastern states represented

composed of Bess Elliott, Milford,

individual judge; Phyllis Griffith,
Milford, third prize as individual
Judge, and Trena Lemex, Milford.
The Clothing Demonstration put on
by this team in the form of "Style
Show" in which they exhibited their
hats and dresses made by the men,
bers of the club, was considered to be
the best demonstration given by any
club team at the exposition. A great
deal of credit is due Mrs. E. J. Lewis
of Milford, local leader, who planned
the demonstration and trained the
team.
The Canning Club team which won
second place in judging was composed
of the Misses Ethna and Catherine
White and Olive Murray, all of Viola.
Ethna White won first place as the
best individual judge.

which was composed of Gordon Arm
strong, McDonough; Irwin Arm
strong, Middletown, and Ernest Milli-

sweep of first prize as the best judg-
ing team with William R. Hill,
Bridgeville, as the best Individual
Judge and Harry Cobaugh as second
best. Henry Wallace, Dover was

just such an instance from real
life:
A friend OF mine who lives In a
small town once made the mistake
OF severely criticizing the way one
of her neighbors brought up her
children; the woman to whom she
made this criticism was false and
promptly told the neighbor what
my friend had said of her way of
training children. This started a
little feud between the families
and other women took sides"
When my friend walked down
street, the neighbor whom she had
criticized would no longer bow "a

very unhappy. She wrote to me

My friend took my advice and

to her home, she wrote me the
following paragraph:

An impromptu interview with
Leopold Godows-.J was most in

lights on the character of the SUI

task entered the Godowsxy apart

great muse. And so lucid were his
explanation and so almost clairvoy-

problems of this pupil, that the

days of his musical career.

they are entitled to rest on that

THE HOUSEKEEPER'S PER-
SPECTIVE,

When an artist starts to paint an
object, he must take into consid-
GRAFTON the angle from which he
sees It; this angle he terms per
spective." Today l am going to
talk about the angle or "perspec-
tive" from which the heusekeeper
looks out upon life,
The average housekeeper's per-
spective Is apt to be too stationary.
That Is, she never changes her
erspective-never gets a new per-
spective. Her homework holds
her pretty close to the home, and
she has few diversions to lead her
thoughts away from herself-or
away from what her neighbors are
thinking!
It is pathetic fact that the ma
iority Of housewives, especially in
small towns, live in terror of what
the neighbors will say" They
brood over small errors they make
and suffer keenly over public dis
approval OF some foolish thing
they have done. have known
women who have actually regret
ted for years some slight mistake
they have made which has "gone
round the town."
Yet if those same women had
been able to jaunt OFF somewhere
on a short trip and get new per
spective," they would have come
home and laughed at the SUCCESS
ton that they once brooded of a
mere nothing. Indeed, I can cite

would have smiled with me. Even
the neighbor I criticized likes me
now"
All OF which boils down to this
truth: that If a person wears a
jaunty air an air that says, My
little mistakes aren't very bad, aft
err alP'-then the world is going to
be convinced; but if person takes
his faults too seriously, then the
world is going to take them seri-
ously too. And one of the best
ways to get that "jaunty air" is to
get a change Of scene and change
Of thought.

should make more visits, should

HEARTBREAK--AND MEASLES
CHAPTER LOT.

CHAPTER 107.
A sort OF early summer lethargy
seemed to have settled upon me.
Even the planning OF my party,
the first one we had given since
our house was finished. failed to
arouse me to interest. Dick wrote
for hours, shut In his study--a
short story to fill in the time until
he heard from the publisher to
whom he had submitted his man
uscript. SO he said, and had added
that he was too nervous to remain
idle, when I urged him to rest.
Often he wandered over to Juan
ita's. learned to know the signs

would look so clean, so sane, so
normal, so much the Dick with
whom l had lived those long
months in the desert. those months
that at times seemed to drag, yet
which / now looked back upon
with regret. Dick had belonged
to me then, he was mine utterly.
Juanita came over frequently in
those few days before the party,
always with question as to my
need of her. 1t hurt me to see Dick
flush with pleasure when he greet
ed her At times he appeared al

Then the night before the party
something happened to put all but
one thing out of my mind. Junior
was coming home.
An epidemic of measles had
broken out at the school. and it
was so severe they were closing
the classes for a week or two, The
boys who lived near were sent
home for greater precaution.
| was delighted that Junior was
to be at the party, and could
scarcely wait for Dick to come in
from his walk to tell him. To my
establishment he grumbled;
II don't see why he should be
sent home ust because few of
the boys have measles?"
But, Dick! He says the boys
are very ILL., And 1t will be delight
full to have him for the party. He
loves to dance"

into the study and closed the door.
