 roads, open more highways and pursue a program of progressive development which will be of advantage to the com munity in years to follow. If the city doesn't do 1t in this way, we will be bound in some other way to supply means to car for those out of employment and in need and distress. There are very few who desire charity. The great majority would rather be in want and i'll distress before seeking charity. What the aver age man wants IS work and 1t IS the city's duty at this time and under the trying conditions that now exist, to pro- vide work to relieve the situation
 "I therefore urge that you take this matter under immediate consideration; to the end that authority be given to pur- sue this progress of development as set forth in the acting city engineers survey and that you take immediate steps to authorize the raising of money to carry forward the same"
 In Director Lanes tabulatiOn was out lined many streets now awaiting compile ton and for which orders have already been passed. These streets are not only holding up city improvements but are actually holding up building as the prop erty owners along them, while des1rous of doing so will not build until the grades and layouts are finally established and the streets made pasSable. A summary of the intended improvements showed paving work of $8O00O, grading. ot $lO5,O0O and park approaches $lOO,OOO.
 Even the chamber of commerce en- dorses the plan, the mayor including in his message, a communication from that body urging the city to go ahead with the improvements now It is therefore ex- pected that thre will be no serious oppoo- sition tonight at the hearing, unless 1t, comes from those penurious taxpayers who object to everything that causes eN-

THE BIJOU.

How do you like your entertain mcnt served2 Do you like your TO- nance spiccd with a dash of daring roguery? Do you like stirring Vest
 ern drama just full of heart interest? j? Os do you like lots of hearty laughs ]? Whichever of these you prefer they will all be served on the Sunday night program at the Bijou theatcr, where the bill includes "Rogues and Ro- nance" a spectacular film drama of sunny Spain; The Sage Hen" won derful drama of the West when 1t was
 young; the I4th episode of 'Double Adventure" that thrilling serial star ring Charles Hutchinson; and one of those Imaginable Billy Franey come
 dies. June Caprice and George B. Seitz are co-starred in "Rogues and Romance' which will be show non
 Sunday night only. It is love story highly Colored with the intrigue of bold, bad outlaw; with the fiery jcal
 ousy of a beautiful and passionate Spanish dancing girl; with the rough
 riding, hard knuckled fighting and
 the cool daring of a slam-b bang Yan-
 kec millionaire, and with the suscep- tible heart of a wilful, romantic, but
 lovable American girl. The cast sup porting Miss Caprice and Mr. Seitz
 in "Rogues and Romance" presents
 Marguerite Cortot as the Spanish
 dancer, Harry Semels as the willy, but
 fascinating rogue, Frank Redman and
 William F. Burt
 The Sage Hen," a powerful story of the old West, with Gladys Brock
 well in the leading character role, is the feature attraction for Sunday night, and will be continued on Mon day, Tuesday and Wednesday.
 It is a picture full of thrills, real breath-catching thrills. Gladys Brock we'll, in the title role, introduces the first excitement. She is a young mother whose love for her small son is great enough to make any sacri- flee. Far out on the desert, the main trail lost, she IS attacked by Indians and wounded. To save her sons life, she strapped him on the back of a pet, trained horse, and when she saw him safely out of sight she fainted and tell over prec1plCe.
 The thrill of adventure Is depicted in the realistic scenes of the first rush into the Western town of men blind to all decencies with the lust of gold newly discovered in the hills A tense climax is provided when one of the williams is carried down over the rap ids in a rowboat and washed over the falls to his death
 Critics everywhere have pronounced "The Sage Hen" to be the greatest Western picture eyre filmed Miss Brockwell is supported by a brilliant cast including such favoritcs as Lil- llan Rich, Wallace, Macdonald, Helen Case, James Mason, Arthur Morrison, and young Richard Headrick.

THE SESSIONS END.

FTER having passed general school law the wisdom
IN unwisdom OF which is yet to be tried out by the
acd experience the Delaware Legislature adjourned
sine die at 69o O'Clock this morning far general
concerned 1t will reassemble next Wednesday
for the purpose OF disposng the appropriations and
claims bills and then will adjourn for good.
The has been FAR from satisfactory to the public
which is we'll pleased that 1t has come to an end The
people are dissatisfied with the standards OF statesman
ship displayed and the quality Of the legislation produced
Viewed by the broad there has been little in the whole
session that has called for special public commentator
and rule that little has been marred by undgnned
unsatesmanlke pickering ndulged in by representa-
OF the discordant elements making the
two houses The attitude Of some OF the Senators and
some OF the Representatives on matters finance and
education has been simply outrageous and what they
have done against the public interest and failed to do for
the public interest must be cured by future sessions
One OF the especially good pieces OF legislation passed
that providing for reorganization Of the Whining
ton Board Of Education Others were, the bin providing
the financial needs OF Delaware College and the
Womens College OF Delaware and changing the names OF
two colleges 10 the University OF Delaware. But
when it to egisatng in regard to the public schools
IN the rural sections OF State, there were certain
members who displayed vioousness OF attitude that
not at all to their credit and that could not pos
sbly work 10 the benefit OF Delaware boys and girls OF
school-going age.
II will be several months before the public will be in
position to judge rightly the value lack OF value Of
several OF the important bills passed That IS because
they must be tried out Meanwhile the people must rest
hoping that many OF the sinister predictions
with respect to them will not be verified by experie
One OF the pleasing features the session the dig
nfhed pursued by Governor Denney. At no time
there any ofclous or offensive interference by him
with the OF legislation. no a marked degree he
kept the executive and the legislative branches OF our
State government separate and distinct standing ready at
4.l-a r...N.
ssteniy to his policy Of not arrogatng to himself egis
latye functions which did not properly belong to him.

LONG RoAn 10 rIppEnAnY.

DELAyVAREANS will watch with interest the efforts Of
~ Henry r. Isaacs chairman OF the Democratic state
Committee to build up effective Democratic organ
ization in our State
Results Of the last general election held Delaware
showed that the State Democracy had been shot to pieces
by public opinion and that IL had become a mere
shadow OF the militant organization mat existed here in
the days when the Bayards the Grays the sausburys and
the Wolcotts in full flower.
IT, a result Of the luncheon which he is giving TO
Democratic leaders from all sections Of the state in
the Hotel dupont today Chairman saacs can reshape the
wreckage OF the state Democracy into something that
has the sembance OF potential political or azaticl he
will prove himsek TO be a party wizard.
We do not believe that he will succeed for several
reasons which may be summarized follows:
First-The Democratic policies not in line
with public opinion in elAer Deawai' or the United
States at large.
Second-The people OF Delaware have lost faith
in the Democratic party a potential and constructive
political agent and large majority Of the people
has lined up with the Republican party already anc
cannot be weaned away from by any program that
be outlined at the Isaacs luncheon.
Third-The State Democracy is lacking in leader
ship and harmony and really big Democrat is il
sight 10 supply the leadership to harmonic the dis
cordant elements
In short, the people OF Delaware are heartily tired o
The State Democracy and its pretensions and will not b.
Influenced by any luncheon or any series Of uncheons
10 change its attitude
Chairman Isaacs will discover after everything ha
said and DONE that it's long long road to Tpperar
and that it will be several years before he and his as
sociaies can reach the end OF It,

Children's Bureau OF the United States Department Of
Labor 1t found that eight per cent OF all the children
between and IS years Of age had at time during
the year done factory work their homes either by hand
or machine. They assembled ievelry strung beads I'm
shed lace and underwear card snaps and shoe buttons
and performed many other simple operations incidental
to manufacture
In the majority OF family need was given as the
reason for home work. This work, however, added but
little to the family income the average earnings per
family during the year from this only sis.

Many OF the children worked not only after school, but
also in the evenings; worked exclusively at night
few OF the children who worked all day In factories
stores also worked at home every night and eye strain
was commonly reported. Teachers and school officials
stated that home work nteered with school attendance
and the quality OF school work.
As most Deawareans know, the homework system
makes factory out OF the home, and the workers arc
subject to hazards from which they are not saeguarded

EASIEnT1nE.

vE,HERE was time, many years ago, when Easter was
looked upon being strictly religious festival to
be INDUCED in only by those who believed in the divinity
OF Jesus Christ That also was true OF Christmas set
apart originally in honor Of the birth Of the Son OF God
In recent years. however, both celebrations have been
observed formally or informally by women and
children OF practically all creeds in civilized countries,
nonbeleyers observing the days in ways which have not
done violence to their convictions but extracting from
them the spiritual, moral and physical benefits which
naturally flow from holidays well spent
And so It will be In Wilmington and throughout the
State OF Delaware Everyone believer and nom
believer will enter into the holiday spirit II not the
sectarian spirit OF Easertde.
Special exercises will be held in all the Christian
churches Sunday schools and other religious and semi
religious Institutions while behind them will stand thous-
ands upon thousands Of persons who will observe the
day outside OF such essentially religious centers but
wherever there is observance that marked by cor
rectness OF conduct benefit will flow therefrom
We wish for all members Of The Evening Journal
Family believers and non-beevers the fullest
OF pleasure which they derive from the days OBJ
servance Especially hopeful that the weather will
be clear and mild that all may be able to carry out
their plans for the days doings.
Evening journal., 1921-03-26

In conclusion let us say that the
foregoing is not intended to be argu-
mentative or evangelical. 1t is a
simple presentation Of facts and mat
ters Of record. available to all. but
evidently not within the knowledge
OF the public. Summarized, these
facts are:
/. That no increases in the retail
prices OF any tobacco products were
made until three years after prices
began advancing on other commodi-
ties.
2. That prices OF tobacco products
have not increased over 81 per
cent. maximum and one some types
Of tobacco products not over 13 per
cent as compared with an average
OF 800 per cent. on nearly all other
commodities or with increases as
high as 5SS per cent on leaf tobacco;
and that In no case were these ad-
vances on tobacco products suhici-
ent to cover the increases in produc-
ing costs.
3. That prices on cigars, cigarettes
and tobacco do not decline along
with most other products for the
same basic reason that they did not
increase along with most other prod
ucts namely because the raw ma
terial-leaf tobacco-is never suit
able and is not available for manu-
featuring purposes until three years
after It passes from the growers
hands; and also, m the case OF ci-
gars, because the cigar types of leaf
tobacco have not yet declined in
price.
4. And. lastly, that a good part OF
the purchase price OF every package
OF cigarettes tobacco and cigars is
