utilize YOUR SPARE MO-
MENTS,

Why not use your leisure time
wisely? What have you gained
from your spare time the past
year? In every city, town and
community in our great union,
some ambitious persons are study
ing by correspondence, are climb
ing upward, while their associates
are standing around the foot of
the ladder of success. Already
thousands too busy or too poor
to attend College are finding edu,
cation at their door; already they
are studying, mastering, succeed
ing. We are as near to you as your
mail box. An hour a day for three
months, devoted to one of our
courses will make you stronger,
wiser, better fitted to cope with
the world and wrest success from
her hands, success which can be
won only by those who arc train
ed in their work.
We are teaching under our
Money Back Guarantee Plan, and
have for years successfully taught
by correspon d e nee; thorough
courses of Booking, Shorthand,
Typewriting, SaleSmanShip, Ad-
vertising, etc. In few months
time without interfering at all
with your present employment, we
can equip you for position as a
trained office worker, and your in-
come need never cease during the
period of training. When you
have completed a course of busi-
ness training with us you will
be able to accept position at a
far better salary than you are now
receiving. This is the age of spec
ialization,-the trained man gets
the big salary.
The advantages of a correspon-
|dence course are in part as fol-
lows: Less cost, not one sixth OF
that required to attend school; no
lost time or salary; you earn
while you learn" save your lei
sure time that would otherwise
be wasted. Make just as much
salary as if you were not study
ing at odd times. You study at
home,-the education comes to
you. Three months free use of a
standard typewriter is given with

The entire program of the COM

The memorial was a gift to the

stage was beautiful with its green
and white background and the
rainbow suspended overhead end
ing in the pot of gold, which held
the diplomas. The front of the
stage was filled with ferns and
Shasta daises. After the presenta-
ton of the diplomas, first, to
twelve entering high school, then
to the seven graduates, the seven
tiny tots, each a lovely fairy in the
rainbow COlOrS, came on to the
stage and showered the class with
beautiful flowers. The class song
was last on the program and was
splendid. By earnest and prolong-
ed request the song given by The
Senior class last week entitled,
"The Faculty" was reproduced
with renewed energy and was en-
joyed possibly more than the first
rendering. The girl graduates look
ed very sweet and dainty in their
frocks, surrounded by
the profuSion of flowers, and the
boys looked well, they looked
sweet and lovely too, and Elton
feels justly proud of the class of
'21.

Rev. Pratt of the Congregational
church at Jennings delivered one
of the most appropriate Bacca-
laureate sermons Sunday night at
the U. B. church that it has been
our privilege to listen to for quite
a while. Rev. Pratt is a fine speak
er. The house was pretty well fill
ed and the four graduates repre-
senting the occasion seemed to
fill him with enthusiasm. He
brought out the necessity for edu-
cation, not merely for what one
might gain by it, but the help they
might be to humanity, as he quot
ed from the poem that, "They
might live by the side of the road
and be a friend to man." The class
colors were purple and gold and
were beautifully carried out in the
decorations of the RoStrum. There
were loads of pretty flowers and
pot plants of all descriptions, and
we join in wishing the fair gra-
duates this sentiment: AS you
launch on life's san, may your
voyage be calm and the port in
which you anchor be a haven of
rest.

DELAWARE NOT A HEALTHY
PLACE FOR "HOLD-UP" MEN
WOLF AND MCKINNEY EACH GET
TERM 25 YEARS FOR ROBBERY
Dray Heavy Sentence Under New Law
For RObbing Wilmington Concern
of $4,000 Pay Roll

Edward F. Wolfe and Francis j.
Mckinney, the young bandits who on
October 20 held up and robbed Philip
McRea, manager of the Delaware Pulp
mills at Wilmington, were sentenced
in court last week to 25 years impris-
onment each. They were also SEN
fenced to $500 fine each. The mini
mum penalty, under a new law, is 20
years. A jury recommending mercy
the lashes were remitted. The young
outlaws were severly rebuked by
Judge H. l.. Rice, who, imposing SEN
tense, stressed the gravity of the of
fense and served warning on bandits
generally that Delaware is not a heal
thy place for them. In imposing SEN
tence Judge Rice said to do so was not
an easy task. He reminded the de-
PENDANTS that their crime was one of
the most daring committed in years.
Judge Rice said the court owes a duty
to the community generally for its
protection and to avoid a repetition of
the act. He said he imposed such
sentence as would act as a deterrant
TO others of evil mind or disposed to
commit acts of a similar nature. He
said the crime did not warrant the inn
position of the minimum sentence. Be
fore sentence was imposed, ]. Frank
Ball, counsel for Mckinney asked the
court to take into consideration the
youth of his client and the fact that
he had never been in any serious
trouble before. James Salisbury
council for Wolfe, also asked the court
to take into consideration the youth ol
his client. In his plea to the court
Mr.. Ball said he did not propose t.
minimize the crime committed H,
said it was a most serious one. TIL,
prisoners did not change their plea o
not guilty, but went to trial. Nh
Sutherland explained that a jury wa
drawn to have a record of conviction
before jury and to try to secure
recommendation for mercy in order t.
save them from being whipped at tn
post.

Son, firm of a controlling interest IN

not made known, it is believed the
deal involved about $4,000. The Will

tains about three acres of the most
valuable waterfront space in the city.
The offices Of the Evans, Company will

DISCUSS FEDERAL POSITIONS
DUPONT and Ball Fail to Agree on
COllectOr-POstOffice Hang Fire


Conferences between United States
Senator L. Heisler Ball and Coleman |
DUPONT, held last week at Washington |
relative to the selection of a man for
internal revenue collector for Della |
ware, resulted in nothing being accom- |
plished. The conferences were held on
Thursday, and it is said that Senator
Ball at that time informed Senator du
Pont that his mind was unchanged.
He was for Thomas E. Peeney, his po-
litical secretary, for the position.
Senator DUPONT gave Senator Ball 20
understand, it is said, that he was not
unduly desirous of naming the collec-
tor, but was ready at any time to sit
down and with Congressman Caleb r.
Layton and himself, discuss the quail
fications of candidates for the office
He announced that the man selected,
it is said, must possess the qualifica-
tions necessary to operate the Office
successfully and with satisfaction to
the general public. He is said to have
reminded the Senator of the great
mass of confidential information that
was filed and registered in the revenue
Office But the outcome was the same
as at other conferences on the sub
| ject.
Senator Balls continued support of
Peeney, has given many persons the
impression, that by sticking for his
man, that he ultimately will win. This
is not accepted by friends of Senator
DUPONT. From information learned
in the past two days, these statements
of Senator duPont's friends appear to
be very we'll grounded. How long
Senator Ball will maintain his loyalty
to Peeney, apparently, will determine
how much longer Harry T. Graham
Democrat, the present collector vii
remain in Office. Senator Balls friend.
say that the senior Senator will mo-
give in, even though Graham shoulC
continue in office until next November
Fortunately, there has been no crit
icism of Collector Graham's conduc
of the office, and there is no reason
! why a new man should be chosel
speedily by either faction of the Re
publican party.
Won't Take on Two Scraps
The inability to name revenue col
lector is also proving fortunate fo
Postmaster J. ]. English, of Whining
ton. While the Republican leade
last spring announced that they woul
not attempt to interfere with Post
master English until he had serve
c his term, there have been muttering
e from time to time by friends of thOs
who are seeking to succeed Mr.. Eng
II lish. But it has been tentativel
n agreed by the Republican leaders tha
they will not attempt to engage in wv
scraps at the same time. In othC
words, they want to settle the revenu
collectorship before they engage in til
battle for the Wilmington postofiic
