Russia has been one of the principal sources Of
supply of fax for linen making, and the commodity
ranked as third in value of its exports Many rumors
have been put in circulation in regard to the large
amounts OF raw materials Russia had hand to
offer in exchange for foreign goods, which naturally
sharpened the desire of the business world to resume
trade relations with that country. But far fax
is concerned the rumors have foundation Of truth

AWARD THEATRE CONTRACT
TO j. BADER & co. OF WILMINGTON.
WILL COST ABOUT $4,000.

Milford is in line for a real i'm
provement to the business properties
of the town, as well as provision for
a modern planned theatre and play
house. The contract to erect a new
fire-proof modern theatre, 49 by 154
feet, with seating capacity of 1,200,
was awarded to J. A. Bader & Co.,
well-known constructors of Whining
ton, by J. E. Lewis of Middletown.
The theatre will be built of brick and
hollow tile, on the Corinthian archi-
tectural plan, and, according to pres
ent plans, will be ready for occupancy
about October 18th. 1t will be equipp-
ed with all modern fixtures and i'm
provements, including smoking and
rest rooms, orchestra and balcony
seating accommodations, an up-to-
date ventilating system, and will cost
approximately $4,000. The roof will
be of corrugated iron.
The management of the new the
atre plans to present a fine line of
motion picture productions and SER
les of first-class vaudeville perform
ances. The building will contain
fine stage and dressing room, and will
be MilfOrd's only modern theatre.
The plans were drawn by the Hoff-
Co., architects of Phila-
delphia. The Hoffman-Henon Co and
the J. A. Bader Co. were also respec-
tive designers and constructors of the
Queen and Majestic the
atres, of Wilmington, and the Cross
Keyes Theatre of West Philadelphia.

new DIRECTORS OF
DELAWARE SCHOOLS
The new STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION
APPOINTS OFFICIALS WITH PROF.
HOLLOWAY AT HEAD.
SALARY SCHEDULE ADOPTED
IT IS The SAME AS The One NOW In
EFFECT-BOARD WILL MEET SUB
JECT TO CALL OF PRESIDENT.

The new State Board of Education,
as authorized by the law passed by
the recent General Assembly, held an
all-day session at Dover, Friday, July
LIST. All the members were present eX-
cept EllwoOd SOuder of Wilmington,
who was detained by other business.
The temporary organization of a week
previous-Dr. T. R. Brown of Wy
oming as president and Minos Z. Gull
yer, vice-president-wa made perma-
nent. eu-
In view of the fact that the new
law makes radical changes in the old
code as to county boards, county
superintendents and other officers,
many of which are entirely eliminated
and abolished, the Board proceeded to
elect such assistants as are provided
for in the new law, including State
Superintendent of Public Instruction
and other assistants.
From Is applicants for the position
of State superintendent of public in
struction, who will also act as eXecu-
tive secretary of the Board, Professor
H. V. Holloway, of Dover, was elected
to that position, at salary of $4,000
per annum. Professor Holloway for
the past two years has been superin-
tendent of Kent county schools. He
is a native Delawarean, having been
born in Sussex county; was principal
OF FELTON, high school for several
years; principal of New Castle high
school for seven years and principal
of schools at BordentoWn, N. j., for
eight years. He holds a Phi. D. from
no Of cNTlx 11io
AS assistants to professor Holloway,
the board selected John Shilling of
Dover, to be in charge of high schools,
the same position he held under the
old board; W. H. Jump of MiddletOwn,
assistant for elementary schools. Pro-
fessor Jump has been superintendent
of schools of New Castle county for
the past few years. Each of these as
sistants will receive a salary of 49,
800, the same as under the old law.
Roger L. Totten was elected statis
tician, a position he held under the /
old board. The board also continued .
the government appointees in connec- /
tion with school work in the State,
R. M. Helm, director Of vo-
eational education; L. C.. Armstrong, I
superintendent of agriculture; Miss
Jennie Bear, superintendent of Home
Benjamin W. Johnson,
of trade and industries.
Most of the day was spent in dis
cussing the distribution of funds in
accordance with the official school
budget as passed by the recent Legis-
ature. A teachers salary schedule
was adopted, which is the same as the
1ne now in effect.
The board will meet subject to the
,all of the president.
Milford chronicle., 1921-07-08
WILL APPOINT A SENATOR
GOVERNOR WILL PROBABLY NAME 7. C.
DU POINT TO SUCCEED WOLCOTT.

The appointment of Senator VOL
colt to the Chancellorship causes a
vacancy in the United States Senator
ship from Delaware, which is likely
to be filled by Governor Denney ap-
pointing General T. Coleman du Pont
for the uneXpired term or, until the
elections of 1922 give the people op-
pOrtunity to elect a successor to COM
plete the term, which would end
March 4th, 1928. At the same cleo
tion another senator will be elected to
serve six years from March 4th, 1928,
when the full term ends.
General du POnt is in Colorado,
where he is resting and taking a
course of treatment to help his nerves
to relax from the tension of big bust
ness. He is directing his affairs from
there by telephone and personal rep
in conference, which
make up the life of a man of many
interests.
It is almost a certainly that if he
will accept the Senatorship, that the
Governor will make the appointment.
1t may be possible that by the time
this paIer is in the mail the appoint
ment will have been made

ANNUAL CAMP OF THE
STATE MILITIA AUG. |
START DRIVE FOR RECRUITS FOR ANTI
AIRCRAFT REGIMENT; The RIFLE
RANGE SELECTED AS SITE.
RECRUITING DRIVE NOW ON
IT IS EXPECTED THAT FULLY 700 MEN
WILL GO INTO CAMP AT The STATE
RIFLE RANGE.

Preparations are now being made
at the State Rifle Range, fronting the
Delaware, three and a half miles be-
low New Castle, to receive it's host of
khaki-clad soldiers who will go under
canvas on August 1. Prior, to the
encampment, however, a final recruit
ing drive for the Anti-Aircraft Regi-
ment, C. A. c., Delaware National
Guard, will be opened in Wilmington
and throughout the larger towns of
the State.
Plans for the recruiting are in
charge of Captain George F. Schultz,
who will be assisted by squads of eX-
perienced men. The drive will be
opened next week.
Every precautiOn is being taken to
make the camp the best from san
itary standpoint in the history of the
military affairs of the State. Major
David M. Salter is supervising the in
stallatiOn of the drainage and water
system, which will add considerably
to the comfort of the men.
The encampment next month will
be the first to be held in the State
since the 1900 members of the First
Delaware Infantry went under canvas
on September Is, 1917, prior to their
departure for Camp Mcclellan, An
