"One of the most effective and pros
porous of the many volunteer fire
fighting organizations down the
State" says the Wilmington Evening
journal, ''is the Robbins Hoes Com
pany of Dover. 1t has fine equip
ment and now it is building a new and
up-to-date home. That company is
not, however, the only one that is
manifesting commendable enterprise.
The Aetna, of Newark, just has hous-
ed a new engine and the Smyrna fire
company is preparing to hold big
carnival to raise funds which will en-
able it to increase the efficiency of its
service to the public. In addition,
Richardson Park, Elmhurst, Ashley,
Bellmoor and Glynrich, out in the
Newport turnpike, have joined and are
preparing to buy fire apparatus for
their joint protection.
"And so it goes! In each instance
it means much personal sacrifice OF
time, energy and money on the part
of the volunteer firemen and their
friends. Beneath it all, however, lies
the fact that such self-sacrifice is well
worth while. 1t makes for better anC

National Bank.

The new State Board of Education
has been named by Governor Denney
in Pursuance, to the new school laws
which take effect at July first. "The
selections made by the Governor"
says the Milford Chronicle, "are
strictly non-partisan, as two are DEM
ocrats and two are Republicans of
well known standing. Upon them
rests the responsibility of naming the
Commissioner of Education, who will
either make or break the administra-
tion of the school laws as they now
stand. A man with earnest desire to
get the best for the children of Della
ware with what he has available, who
is thinking for the future as well as
the present welfare of public school
education, in that position will help

shape with the least possible friction.

tics will have to be forgotten, or the
schools will suffer as a result. The

CENTURY CLUB BENEvoLENCEs
What the Twentieth Century Club has
Done in Way of Financial Aid

Done in Way of Financial Aid
The question is asked at this time
when our club women are arranging
for another Country Fair, what does
the club need money for and what has
it done? Besides the need of funds
for the upkeep and improvement of
it's pretty little club house, the club
has disbursed funds in a number of
ways. The following report, recently
made the club gives in outline of the
benevolences of the club between the
years 1898 and 1921:
"For several years membership
was paid in the Travellers Aid, which
helped to keep in Broad Street Station
in Philadelphia, the kindly, watchful
woman, who looked after unattended
and bewildered girls and Travellers
The Travelares Aid is still doing good
work.

Leaping from a motorcar with her

the Pennsylvania Railroad crossing
near Mendenhall, Chester county, Mrs.
Helen Walker, 40, of Kennett Square,
daughter of former State Senator
Richard j. Baldwin, was killed Sunday
June 10 by an eastbound train. Before
being struck by the train she hurled
her daughter, Elizabeth, 8 years old,
onto an embankment and the child
was uninjured. Her husband, William
Walker, seed merchant, was driving
the automobile toward their home, af-
ter visit to the former Senator's
Chadd Ford residence. Aware of the
dangerous crossing near Mendenhall,
he slackened the machines speed as
it neared the tracks, but the car STALL
ed as it rolled onto the crossing. Mrs.
Walker, seeing the fast approach of
an eastbound train from Oxford, be-
came excited and jumped in the path
way of the train. A second later, Mr..
Walker got his car started and it
rolled clear of the ennige. Funeral
and interment took place yesterday.

Lower Prices
on Nash Cars
Effective July 2
Effective July 2

Nash prices will be reduced,
effective July 2.
This conforms to our statement
made last October that Nash
prices would be maintained until
at least July 1, 1921.
The reasons were plain. Until
manufacturing costs were lower
we could not cut price without
cutting value, as Nash prices
were not inflated.
We pointed out then that while
the average rise in the price
of motor cars for q four year
period had been 766 the price
of Nash cars had been raised
but 31%.
This 31% included the addition
of cord tires as standard equip
ment and many other additions
andrefinementswhich addedma-
terially to the value of Nash cars.
Sowere-affirmed our fixed inten-
tion of rigidly upholding the
high quality of Nash cars.

Since then every effort of the
Nash organization has been cen
tered on effecting sound manu-
featuring economies.
New labor saving devices were
added and production practice
SO perfected that every process
of Nash manufacture is a model
of efficiency and economy.
The savings have been substan-
tial. And they demonstrate as
nothing else could demonstrate
the remarkable Nash ability to
produce fine cars at the lowest
possible cost.
Even while working production
costs downward we were i'm
proving Nash cars still further.
Now we can announce for July2
a greater Nash value than ever at
reduced purchase price.
At the new prices the leadership
of Nash cars is even more er
phatically apparent.

Loose Floor Sales
VIII Begin Dec. 5

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 26.-Most
of this week has been favorable for
handling tobacco, and the farmers
have been engaged in bulking their
crops, preparatory to stripping.
Many of the farmers are expect.
ing to have a large portion of their
crops ready for the opening loose
floor sales which open on Dec. 5.
1t is thought that the sales will be
attended by a full board of buyers,
willing to pay remunerative prices.
So far as reported, only few
crops have been sold in this county,
the prices ranging from $25 to $28
per round to $32 for leaf and SIS for
Jugs. Several loads have been de-
livered to the loose floors, some of
it unstripped, but this will be pre-
pared for the opening sale.
The nine loose floors are now
ready to receive tobacco, with their
houses in good condition for hand
ling the weed. The nine rehandling
houses are in first-class condition
also for receiving.
The buyers, it is said, express
themselves as we'll pleased with the
types of tobacco in the barns. Those
who have visited the country have
found the best fired crop that has
been raised in this section for years.
The GAINESVILLE market is regard
ed as one of the best dark tobacco
markets in the south, and is prepared
financially to handle all tobacco that
may be brought here for sale.
