Recital By
Miss Ruth Tyler

The many friends of Miss Ruth
Tyler are anticipating her recital
next Friday evening at the Meth
odist church under the auspices of
the Girls Community League.
The Emusic News" has this to
say of Miss Tyler's singing:
Ruth Tyler may well be proud
of her debut concert at Kimball
Hall last Tuesday evening. She
has gained beautiful control OF
voice and excellent musicianship,
style and enunciation of all texts.
Miss Tyler has sincere, whole
some and altogether attractive per-
sonality, and her voice reflects
these qualities to nicely and has
further, distinct thrill in it, es-
pecially when she scars to altis-
simo tones, with full and very clear
voice. Throughout her work she
disclosed an extraordinary intelli-
gence in the use of her resources
and in her manner of presenting
her numbers. The program had
been chosen with. great skill and
was so arranged that there was q
graduel crescendo of interest and
effect from first to last.

pended $SO,OOO,OOO should not dis
integrate altogether and that the
improvement to transportation on
the Tennessee River should not be
lost.
The principal points in Mr..
Ford's offer are:
"a He will take a 100 years
lease upon the Wilson Dam and
No. 8 dams and electric installation
when completed. This work is es-
timated to cost $28,000,00O. After
a short preliminary period, Mr..
Ford proposes to paw interest at
the rate of 6 per cent on the sum
of $28,000,000 and to amortlZe
not only this sum but ne entire
cost of both dams over a period OF
100 years.
(2l To purchase all the nitrate
plant and equipment, lands, steam
plant, etc., for $5,000,000.
(3) To convert and operate the
large nitrate plant (No. p for the
production of fertilizer compounds
and as a standby for Government
explosives in case of war ana to
keep it up to date in both arts.
"a To limit the profits of the
fertilizer plant to 8 per cent, an
Independent board embodying rep
resentatives of the Americap Farm
Bureau and the National Grange
and the Farmers Union to certify
to this maximum.
The completion of these works
makes the Tennessee navigable to
Chattanooga, and there are
undertakings by Mr.. Ford fol-
maintaining the locks, etc. The
power developed will ultimately
greatly exceed the requirements OF
the fertilizer plant, and Mr.. + orc
proposes to use it in his own bus
mess. In order to meet the annu'
al payments proposed very large
use of power must be made outside
The fertilizer works.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover
stated "that the acceptance of the
offer were entirely for decision by
Congress, and that body would
no doubt be greatly guided by
Secretary Weeks views in the
matter. Mr.. Ford has made a ZEN
uine proposal 1t shows courage
to agree to pay out $5,00O,000; tt
spend further sums upon large
works, and besides to take an an
nual obligation for abou
81 100000 for 100 years, and tt
agree to maintain a nitrate plan
in reserve for the Government fol
that period Whatever may b.
the result, Mr.. Ford's offer doe
prove what the nublic association
have contended-that the compile
ton of this project has a com
mercial value"

body Of by-products and other
waste material. A body surcharged
with such material is in state OF
auto toxemia or constitutional
food poisoning and acidity.
What shall we do to safeguard
against infectious diseases! See
that our children have plenty OF
sleep ten hours is best); give
them air and sun baths; plenty OF
water before meals, nothing bu;
water between meals; see that
! their bowels move at least twice
daily.
Children early accustomed to
their air and sun baths will escape
the so-called infectious diseases,
Why? Because these diseases ar
encouraged by clothes and over
heating the surface of the body
1t is difficult to say which is the
most health building, air, light OF
cold. No doubt the best results
are obtained when the three are
properly blended.

This Youngster Will Get on.

What is called "having vocation" in
religious circles is also a very important
thing in selecting a life occupation.
A case in point was supplied by Leonard
Wallstein, Jr., aged ter, and 50 an infant
prodigy in his way, who, attired in Elton
coat and collar, watched Mr.. Samuel
Untermver in action at a recent session Of
the Lockwood Committee in New York.
II came out afterward that the youth,
who is a son of one of the associate coun-
sci, had been taking notes of the pro
ceediDgs, with a view TO deciding what
would be his own future business
His reasons for deciding that he would
enjoy himself as an attorney and counsen-
lor-at-law were expressed with admirable
terseness in the following sentence: I'D
rather be the lawyer and ask the questions
than be the witness and Try to answer the
them"
This admirable and philosophical re-
mark is interesting not only In relation 20
the immediate problem but in a wider
sense
All those who have keen recollections
of passing pleasant hours oD the witness
stand, trying TO tell the truth in spite Of
the efforts of an ornament of the bar 20
bring it out in a special form, win agree
that young Master Wallstein already
knows thing or two and should be aD
ornament TO his future profession.

BONUS AS A STATE ISSUE.

Following the lead Of Massachusetts, and
Rhode Island the voters of New York all-
thoriged nj the recent election an issue
Of bonds for the purpose of giving q bonus
90 all men and women Of the state who
served in the war. The cost viii be IN ex-
cess of $40, 900, 600 il all those entitled to
the gratuity make application for II.
While the question Of national bonus
was held in abeyance during the recess
of Congress, the influences favorable to
the bonus principle have been carrying on
their campaign in the several States. Hav-
ing been successful in the richest State Of
the Union and the one that gave the most
men and women TO the service, strategic
point has been gained in the presentation
OF the isales to Legislatures OF other states
when they assemble during the coming
winter.
The result of the Congressional election
was most discouragng 10 the bonus sup
porters. The author of the bill that has
already passed the House WAS defeated,
4 was a score Of other bonus supporters.
Most of the service men who were candi-
dates for public office were defeated. 1t Is
freely said at Washington that the COM
pensatiou and bonus ISSUE Is likely TO be
dropped despite the assurance Of MIR.
Harding that be would give 1t his support.
With the turn Of events IN New York
State il will be surprising if the bonus issue
does not come up for consideration IN
large number of States. The battle
ground NAV be shifted, but the issue IS still
to be decided Plain Dealer.

To Teach Local History.

Pennsylvania educators have decided
to have the history Of that State written
into text book and taught in the public
schools movement that might be prof
itably followed in Delaware The teach
ing of local history has long been seriously
country, but little practical work has
been accomplished in that direction, not
withstanding the study Of the past as well
as the present conditions that surround
us, is of great interest and Importance.
The keystone States new text book will
record the early achievements OF the
people Of that Commonwealth and viii
pay careful attention to celebrating her
industrial activities, her records in arts
and sciences. II is also proposed 10 make
the public school houSes centres OF histori-
cal research, wherein may be collected
and arranged all local data for the work.
1t is quite welcome news that this study
is TO be seriously taken up by State so
that others may watch with interest the
results of the experiment and possibly
follow the lead. We trust Delaware
may be one of the first 10 realize the im-
portance Of this step and likewise teach
the children Of the State at least the high
spots in our States achievements. There is
no State in the Union that has a more
interesting past than our own Delaware,
and to stress or even recitc the important
part she played in the early days of the
country is not only most entertaining but
would prove useful as an addition TO the
courses in our public schools. The nat
ural resources of the State, our industrial
development all should come under re-
view and be accurately set before our
youth.
There are several historical works on
Delaware from which the early data might
be obtained and presented in q condensed
form, and fortunately there are one or two
individuals who have been in close touch
with Delaware and her people for long
time who are well equipped for the COM
pilation of the work, which should also be
brought up TO date.

Strawberries Are Ripe Again.

The temperance Of strawberries IN
our curb market on the eve of New Years
brings to mind how short is the time be-
tween strawberry shorteakes, as the gov
erDor Of North Carolina would be forced
to say these days, instead of noting the
long interval between drinks. The last
native-grown Strawberries were disposed
of in the market late in October, SO we have
only had two months TO wait for the re-
turn of the delicious fruit.
The shipments from the south Will be
constant from tins time until the berries
show their red cheeks TO the Sussex sun,
ID the late spring, and as the production
area shifts we will receive them from the
north until our second crop is ripe. Mod
ern methods of cultivation and transpor-
tation have extended the original period
for berries from a month to ten, and at the
same time improved the quality Of the
fruit nightly
Our position 10 this warm area between
the two big bays gives US q mild climate, a
long cropping season, with splendid at
mospheric conditions-rain fall and the
lilse-that make this State and the Penins
sula almost an Eldorado in opportunities
for the intelligent, progressive farmer
