Isaac S. Baird Tells Mems Class
of West Church on goth
Birthday.

In West Presbyterian Church last
night West Mems Glass rendered Isaac
s. Baird a delightful reception In
honor Of his Goth birthday anniver-
sary. Fifty persons attended the az
fair. which followed prayer service.
Frank sheppard, a brother elder
after a few appropriate remarks, pre-
sented TO Mr.. Baird a substantial
purse as a token Of the esteem in
which he is held by the class, and
the recipient briefly responded. thank
ing the donors FOR their thoughtful
ness and saying he always realizes
he is among friends when at West
Churh. Refreshments were served,
and an hour was spent socially.
Mr.. Baird was born on August "a.
1891, at the northwest corner OF Tenth
and Market streets He is son OF
George and Mary Ann Baird and a
grandson OF Isaac Stevenson. at one
time burgess of Wilmington. When a
boy he attended Hanover sPresby-
terian Sunday school and became
member or Hanover Church. Later
he was one OF the charter members Of
Central Presbyterian Church. In
1868 he was one OF the los persons
who went out from Central TO organize
West Church. of which he has been an.
elder since 1892. For many years he
has been a member Of the church
choir. lie has always been greatly in
terested in West Mems Class, OF
which he is honorary president. He
has been Sunday school teacher for
a long time and served as treasurer,
and now he is clerk emeritus of the

and ever ready sympathy endear him
TO all with whom he comes in contact.

Mr.. Baird yesterday said he never
used liquor or tobacco. He attends
West Church regaiarly and visits
Cool Spring Park daily.
1.-THE world is just as good today
as it was at any time in my memory"
Mr.. Baird remarked. Life in VII
mington years ago was very simple
and quiet, but l think the people were
really, in some ways. happier than
they are today However, l wouldn't
say that the world is worse today
than then. People did not have so
many temptations then, but, ON the
other hand, there was nothing like
the public spirited interest in the
common good that there Is today. /
would say that this age compares
favorabiy with that OF two or three
generations ago"

REJECT APPEAL FROM
P. AND S. HOSPITAL
Delegation Fails to Enlist Sup
port of City Council for Con-
tagious Disease Unit.

Members of the finance committee
of the City Council last night heard
arguments from a number of pretni
nent citizens in support of the peti-
tion from the Physicians and Surgeons
Hospital for an appropriation of s5,-
goo for the maintenance of the con-
tagious disease unit of that institu-
tion but IL was made clear TO the
visitors by the city officials that Coun-
ell is not in position at this time to
afford any relief. Whether the Coun-
ell will be able to include in next years
budget an appropriation for the hos-
pital viii be determined by the finan-
cial conditions which exist at that
time but Council last night gave no
assurance that this would be done.
In addition to representatives from
the hospital those who appeared be-
fore the Council last evening included
members of the Rotary Club and the
Beard of Education. as well as several
private citizens. Josiah Marvel.
spokesman for the Rotary Club MEM
bers, sought TO have the finance conf
mittee give them some assurance that
the requested financial aid would be
forthcoming next year and Council
men Evans and J.. T.. McNabh said
they would support such a request a
year hence.
Councilman James II. McManus.
chairman of the finance committee,
explained that the city has no funds
TO draw on for such a purpose this
year. MIR. Marvel thought Council
might pass a resolution pledging its
support next year, claiming public aid
might be enlisted in the meantime 10
carry along the unit Of the hospital.
MIR. McManus said he could not sup
port such a resolution. He explained
that delegations had visited him at
his home and opposed the city sup
porting this unit because these peo-
pie felt that after the city had agreed
70 support il the unit would perhaps
be unloaded upon the city.
John Il. Booker. representing the
directors of the hospital, said he never
heard of any such suggestion on the
part OF the hospital officials and he
explained that the hospital would be
glad to continue the management OF
the unit IL the city would aid in its
maintenance.
Townsend w, Miller suggested the
city appropriate $4,000 annually 10
each of the three hospitals and the
same amount to the contagious unit.
DR.. Victor ID. Washburn and Ellwood
Souder advocated some financial aid
for the hospital. William p. White
denied that thefe We're any politics
in the appeal OF the delegation. DIR.
Washburn asked az the city would
take over the unit and practically all
the CouRcilmen present voiced their
opposition to this suggestion.
The necessity for having some such
institution In the city in case of an
epidemic of any kind was pointed out
but apparently the. Couneilmen could
not be moved from their stand that
the city is unable at this time to pro-
vide any moneys for the hospital. The
finance committee will have a formal
report for submission to City Council
at the meeting this evening and it is
expected this viii recommend that
the appeal from the hospital manage
nrent be rejected.

the Rev. Parker Moon, who for a full
half century has devoted his life and
talents to Sunday school and organi-

or Quakers.
''Uncle Parker" as he is more famil-

ged Quaker stock, and there is not a
better known or more highly respect

In referring to his remarkable res
toration to health by Tanlac, he said:
''About five years ago 1 suffered
a general breakdown. My principal
trouble was nervous indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with me, and i had to

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
IL is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
On endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it..
A prominent druggist says '"Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, q
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony ofethousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
80 many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
