LONG ENGAGEMENTS
BY wINoNA WILCOX

Broken engagements like divorces,
have increased since the war.
II was engaged five years. Seems
absurd, 1 suppose, to a person of
sense. It's absurd to me, now I've
broken with the man. Many times
asked him why we couldn't marry.
The only answer l ever had was
"Becausei" Then followed extrava-
CANT demonstrations of his devotion.
II wish you would write some
thing good and strong about men
who are too selfish to marry. I'm
convinced it would do some of them
a world of good.-Foolish Virginl"

one bit by the printed word.
Character is not made in a day
and it cannot be made over by a

The local organization has done much constructive and

pnovINcr OF A NEWSPAPER,

From the Milford Chronicle
It would be comical, were 1t not
somewhat pathetic. the way news
paper offices are besieged every day
by theft friends. urging them to
"roast" this and that; TO "see to It,
that this and this is corrected; to
have this and that done In the COM
munity; TO start this and that kind
OF movement TO correct evils in the
administration of town, county or
State affairs. These friends actually
appear to believe that 1t is the news
papers business to handle all these
affairs.
But a self-respecting newspaper,
though ready and willing TO carry
all reasonable responsibility, must
remind its reacers that they - the
people are the auth lrity upon
whom rests the responsibility for
the present state Of affairs local,
State and national.
A self-respecting newspaper tries
To report the news of what actually
happens. not what 1t might wish had
happened. The relation Of self-re-
specting newspaper to the general
public is not always understood. 1t
/ is the duty OF a newspaper to be in
a position to support any good act
/ and criticize any bad act of public
policy.
This relationship cannot exist
where favors are asked and granted.
Honesty is the only policy for
newspaper.
II objectors don't like the way
things are going, they should quail
ify as voters, and then raise cain
about Il.
Thero is probably no questioning
! the fact that Illegal cunning is done
along the bay-shore marshes, as we'll
as In the fields and woods OF Della
ware. There is plenty OF knowledge
OF this fact-but It is almost impos-
sible to get those who have that
knowledge to testify to the fact be-
fore a Justice Of the Peace, so that
warrants for arrest and prosecution
can be made.
Laws do not prevent offenses
, AGAINST law-but the enforcement OF
law by every person will effectually
stop the breaking OF laws. With a
general determination and fearless
1 effort to prosecute all who -un out
of season. or those who break the
law in any form. will wipe away all
cause for complaint. A General de-
termination TO enforce law prevalent
with all citizens. will bring general
observation Of the laws.
There is a law which prevents any
person from collect.-g damage for
Injury to-. a carriage. wagon. cart OF
automobile driven on the highways
one hour after sundown without
lights being shown-but the people
take the chance just the same and
suffer injury. then a wall goes up fol

The newspapers perform the dutl
OF calling attention to offenses al
legged to be co:lmitted against th'
laws, which is the extent OF theil
ability to correct glaring offenses.
every man and woman will have th'
courage to enforce the laws, by Civ
