Smyrna has another home industry,
for the first time in several years a
bakery. Two young men from Will
mington forming the Purity Baking
Company have installed a model plant
in the old Cummins property occu-
pied by Mrs. C. A. Winford, and in an
other column make an announcement.
1t is to be hoped our citizens will ap-
preciate the coming of this home in
dustry in our midst and give the en-
terprise encouragement and support.
The company will start out with a
force of ten men and add to as the

Tomorrow, Thursday, is the day set
apart by the President of the United
States and the Governors of the vari-
Gus states of the union, as a day for
National Thanksgiving. Regardless
of the general unsatisfactory condi-
tiOns of business for the past Sin
months, there are many things which
we all have for which to give thanks
to Almighty God. We must remem-
ber that for four years the country
enjoyed great prosperity-that we as
individuals had part in that general
initiation of the business of this coun-
try. We must accept the readjust-
ing of the scales and each do his or
her part to again start the wheels of
trade turning. The country is in bet
ter shape than for the past century.
There .is full and plenty for all, and
for that reason lets give thanks ear

participants had enrolled themselves
as members of the Delaware Red
Cross. And it takes but a trihing
sum to qualify. One dollar will turn
the trick. For the payment of one
dollar an individual can be a member
of the great army whose sole purpose
is to benefit humanity. There is no
telling the vast amount of good that
one dollar can do. The dollar is a
part of the great fund.
"The purpose of the leaders of the
campaign is to get as many on the
list as possible. The Red Cross dif-
fers from many other movements. In
the latter, comparatively speaking, a
few individuals contribute and foot
the bills. In the Red Cross the multi
tude, the many, the vast army of peo-
pie, send in their dollars. And why
should they not do so? Why should
not every citizen contribute something
for the relief of the suffering and for
the benefit of humanity. Many a per-
son who contributes a dollar, or who
should contribute a dollar, on the NOR
row may need the services of the Red
Cross.
"The purpose of the campaign is to
bring home to the people, to the aver
age citizen, that he has a duty which
should not be shirked. That duty is
to help along the Red Cross with the
mite.
Judge George Gray, chairman of
the Delaware Chapter of the Red
Cross, has appealed to our people to
rally to the support of the Red Cross.
b Upon this enrolment, as Judge Gray
says, the Red Cross must depend for
its revenue and the continuance of its
helpful activities. There is some
thing of inspiration in the thought
that we can at the small cost of one
dollar help to mobilize and make prac-
tical the good will and generous i'm
pulses of our common humanity
Judge Gray tells the people not 10
wait to be approached by workers for
the Red Cross, but to send the dollar
to headquarters, No. 836 Market street
Wilmington, as a Thanksgiving offer
ing. The state should not fail in this
campaign. Delaware has a high rec
ord which must be maintained. Let
therefore every patriotic citizen OF
the state come with the dollar and be
enrolled in the noble army of the Rec
Cross"

"The announcement that the rail
roads have agreed upon a cut of 10
per cent in freight rates on farm
products will be welcomed throughout
the country. The reduction will be a
direct benefit to the farmers, enabling
the INTO get their crops to markets at
lower cost, and the consumers ought to
feel the effects of this reduction III
lower prices in retail sales.
"But more than a reduction of 10
per cent in freight rates on farm
products is necessary before justice to
the people will result" says the Every
Evening of Wilmington. "There is
pressing need of a reduction in the
rates of passenger travel, already ex-
ceedingly high, with the war tax on
tickets still in force. There is a red
sonable expectation that this tax bur-
den will be eliminited after the first of
he year, and while that will be a re-
lief, it will not be sufficient. A charge
of four cents per mile for passenger
transportation is excessive, and incites
many persons to refraining from every
kind of travel that is not absolutely
essential, a policy which results in
much inconvenience and also, in many
cases, interference with business. The
regular rates should be reduced to the
pre-war basis as soon a possible. They
were high enough then, in all con-
science. Now they may justly be
styled exOrbitant. And there is nc
doubt that literally reduced rates
would naturally tend to largely in
creased travel"

With a sound drubbing administered
to the Pennsylvania Military College
on Harlan Field, Wilmington, the Uni
versity of Delaware football team
wound up its season on Saturday af-
ternoon.
Its record for the year under Coach
Derby and Captain Holton is five
games won and four games lost. No
one should forget, however, that of
the four games lost two were admit
tedly lost before they were played.
We refer to those with the University
of Pennsylvania and Lafayette Col
lege. So that, of the seven games in
which Delaware had any show what
ever for winning, five were won, and
that, too, by decisive scores.
"The game on Saturday." says the
Evening Journal, "was witnessed Dy
between 1000 and 4,5OO persons in the
face of predictions made in some
quarters that not enough Wilmington
ians would go to Harlan Field to fill
one of the stands. In realty, every
%olr i 6
sons were compelled to stand along
the sidelines. Nor was that all, be-
cause the spirit of the crowd was
splendid in its demonstrations of in.
terest in and loyalty to the University
of Delaware. Both the attendance and
the spirit constituted a complete vim
dication of the judgment of Dean
Smith and his associates on the Ath-
letic Council and Coach Shipley in de-
Gliding to play the final game of the
season in here instead of in Newark.
GAS to the game itself, Delaware
acquitted herself splendidly in close
and uncOmpromising struggle. The
six points it made were won early in
the fight and from that time on, each
side settled down with a firm deter
mination that its opponent should not
carry the pigskin over the line. There
was a time when Delaware was in
jeopardy, but it fought its way back
to firm ground and succeeded in at
tanning its end of holding its oppo-
nent scoreless.
"Nor is it amiss to compliment Ser
geant Devenish and his men for the
admirable manner in which they hand
led the crowd and the hundreds of au-
tomobiles and hacks which were jam
med in the congested parking space in
South Market street. The ability OF
the policemen was demonstrated es-
pecially in handling the foot and We.

in these days that IL they allude TO them
they talk in many cases undiluted nom
sense.
In England there are workingmen's
clubs which are now getting lecturers in
economies who show the bearings of
international trade on national condi-
tions. and these lectures and debates are
not only counteracting revolutionary
ideas by bringing common sense and
reality to dissipate hot air and ignor-
ance. but are helping TO direct the minds
OF young workingmen to the enormous
Importance Of the Washington confer
ence and its actions and reactions upon
our future destiny.
That is a good work, but It does not
spread far enough. 1t only touches a
small minority.
Meanwhile anxiety about Ireland is
slightly relieved by a new hope, private
charity. In spite OF private poverty. is

New York Herald Bureau,
LONDON. Sept. "a.
A few nights ago 1 had the honor
or being on the same platform with
Jane Adams at Toynbee Hall in Lon
don when she addressed gathering
OF social workers and gave some i'm
pressions of her visit to the sessions
of the League OF Nations in Geneva,
from which she had just returned.
l was struck with some OF her obser-
vations, especially when she said it
would be necessary to humanize the
league and to bring it in closer touch
with the interests and the aspirations
OF the worlds plain folk. I think that
the great heart and understanding
spirit of this noble American woman
enabled her to see the essential weak
ness OF the league as it at present ex-
lists and works. 1t is hopelessly out
OF touch with human emotions and
every day interests.
This was apparent when Lord Rob-
ert Cecil, delegate for the Union of
South Africa in Geneva, announced in
a dramatic way the election of eleven
judges and four deputy judges. con-
stituting the permanent court of in
ternational justice. "The world S
court is in being" he cabled to Eng
land. THUS the reform so long de-
sired and passionately sought after
has been realized"
That message did not so far as I
can observe, cause one thrill among
the British people. Nobody went about
that day with any sense of new hope
because something tremendous had
been accomplished in the progress of
civilized ideals. Nobody shook hands
on it or embraced strangers in the
street or mopped wet eyes in gladness
or even bothered to mention it in their
home circles. The fulfilment of the
reform "passionately sought after"
left public opinion stone cold.
Now, I am one or those who still
believe in the League of Nations as
an international machine which III fu-
ture years may be used and made an
instrument of reconstruction and
power. but looking at the facts as they
are now, do not disguise from my
self that it is. so far a weak and i'm
potent affair, lamentably unhuman, as
Miss Adams observed.
There are many reasons for this,
not all of which are the fault of the
league itself. One reason is the very
powerful and dominating interest of
all peoples in their own domestic prob
lens. with which the league itself
seems to have nothing whatever to do,
neither for help or harm.
In Great Britain just now, as in the
United States and Canada, although
most intensely in England. there is
great distress of mind among the
working folk over the tragedy of un-
employment. A million and a half
totally unemployed men and more
than half million mainly unemployed
are dreading the approach Of winter
when Government money will no lon
ger be available to keep them on bare
rations unless some new scheme is de-
vised to give them work or keep them
alive out of public taxes. against
