MARTIN Wins IN
FIRST ROUND.
Court Denies Injunction Sought by
County To Restrain Him From
Running His Boat.

Judge Pomeroy of Kalispell presided
in the District court Tuesday, when a
hearing was had in the case of the
Attorney General on the relation of
the People of Montana VS.. Martin, in
volving the ferry franchise at Lismas,
was commenced.
The case involves many legal ques-
tions which are being looked after by
the Attorney General, County Attor-
ney Lincoln Working and Norris,
Hurd, Rhodes & Hallett for the coun-
ty, and G. w. Farr of Miles City and
Dignan & Shea, representing Martin.
There was considerable sparring be-
tween the lawyers as to just what
kind of case they were trying, this
seemed to be settled in some way,
and the taking of evidence proceeded
until late Wednesday upon the ques-
ton as to whether an order should
be issued restraining Martin from op-
Grating a ferry pending the trial.
The case is in the nature of a quo
warranto proceeding brought on be-
half of the people by the attorney
general, who asserts in substance that
in order to promote the best interests
Of the people, the franchise which
Martin has to run a ferry, should be
revoked. The general reason for the
demand is the unsatisfactory way in
! which he has handled the ferry. The
sea-worthiness of his boat is also in
volved. Martin denies that he has
failed to give proper service, and the
questions of law and fact were sub
mitted to the court.
The matter of having safe and
dependable ferry at Lismas, is of the
greatest Importance to the people of
Glasgow, and there was large "gal-
lery" in attendance at the trial.
Upon the conclusion of the hear
ing Wednesday afternoon the court
decided that he would not grant tenn
porary injunction against Martins
running the ferry, leaving the whole
matter open to be decided upon the
final trial, at which the validity Of
Martins franchise will be determined

The famous picture is the

it's own story and is strikingly
appropriate to the book be-

his actions in wanting another place to

Big Men Needed Today

What we need today is big men who
will accept the little duties of life, if
you call them little. We need big men
who will tackle plain everyday busi-
ness and not banker after the presi-
denotes Of big corporations; we need
big men who will help lift up plain,
everyday politics without using that
as a stepping stone to get to Con.
gress; we need big men in our villages
as well as in our cities; we need big
men on our farms. We need those
big men to lead their big lives among
ordinary folk, content with what they
do rather than what they get.
When we needed a big man VIC
found him tucked away in some
village. We found Washington there
we found Lincoln there; we fount
Grant there. We need to develop JUS
such men, and keep them in reserve

NEWARK APPEALED TO
in EDUCATIONAL WEEK
President Harding and State
Authorities Point Out
Necessity of Learning

Although no special ARRANGEMENTS
are being made by the local Board of
Education in regard to American
Education Week, December 4 to 10.
the various teachers of the schools
are explaining to the students the
purpose of the week.
This week has been set aside bv
President Harding for educational
purposes. The week is also National
Safety Week and here in Newark and
other parts of Delaware it has also
been designated as "Visit the Schools
Week." H. V. Holloway, State Su-
perintendent Of Public Instruction
has sent word to Superintendent
Owens of the local schools urging him
to impress upon the parents of school
children the Importance that is con-
nected with the week.
When fathers and mothers of
Newark can grasp the Importance
that attaches itself to the education
of the community they will have the
fundamental basis of a perfect town.
i 1t is hard for one to. realize that right
here in Delaware, one out of every
! twenty of our total adult population
admitted inability to read and write
at the 1920 census. Surely with the
educational center of the State To-
Gated here the townspeople will not
see the present week go unheeded.
Right in our own State we have
2,427 whites and 1856 negroes who
have been listed as illiterates and this
number was raised either in Della,
ware or some other part of the United
States. These figures are astonish
ing but yet are cold facts that every
father and mother must help tt
overcome and can do so by co-operat
ing with the educational authorize:

REDUCE HIGHWAY
BOARD EXPENSE
State Project Now Nears
Completion

Cutting down of the overhead"
expenses in the State Highway De-
partment to $4,000 during the pres
ent year, as announced at last Fri
days meeting of the State Highway
Commission, with an intimation that
still further reductions may be made,
has struck chord of popular ap-
proval from all parts of the State,
particularly in the lower part of
Delaware. Credit is being given the
commissions new chairman, Secre-
tary Of State A. R. Benson for cut
ting down expenses in the depart
ment.
Mr.. Benson realized that if the
confidence of the people was to be
held, it would have to be brought
about by the most economical conduct
of affairs of the department begin
ming first at the overhead expense
about which some unfavorable COM
ment had been made in the last
Legislature.
Much of the reduction is made pos.
sible by the fact that most of the
State-long road project is being
finished, which permits the dropping
of many engineers and other EN-
ployes whose services have been nee
essary until the project has reached
its present stage.
Cutting down of overhead ex
penses also may enable the commits
sion to increase the amount Of bond:
it may issue.

Mrs. Harding Finds
I,incoln's Bed

Mrs. Harding is said to have found
the bed Abraham Lincoln used tucked
away in an obscure corner of the
White House with some other dis
carded furniture. She is said to have
been greatly shocked that this his
toric piece of national furniture
should have been misused and i'm
mediately set to work to have it put
into condition.
She also is making an endeavor to
restore the Lincoln bedroom. She has
had all of the furniture taken out of
the northwest room, which overlooks
Pennsylvania avenue, and has placed
therein the remaining few pieces of
furniture known to have been used by
President Lincoln.
Lincoln did not use this particular
room, as it is not as pleasant as the
rooms on the south side of the house
overlooking the wide stretch of grassy
lawn.
The room Mrs. Harding is fitting
up as "the Lincoln room" was last
used by President Mckinley.
The Lincoln bed is large affair OF
fine walnut, with the American eagle
carved in the footboard. 1t apparent
ly was made especially for Lincoln
since it is 8 feet inches long. The
headboard stands five feet above the
floor. Two huge lovebirds form the
basis of the carved design-one OF
each side-and they hold garland o.
interwined roses and grapes.
A pierglass and square mirror
flanked on each side by four drawers
a dresser and center table are thu
other pieces of Lincoln furniture tha
have been placed in the room.
1t is said that Roosevelt used tn
Lincoln bed for a while in his room
on the south side of the White House

AT THE PLAYHOUSE
Madame Petrova, In Person,
Presents The White
Peacock"

1t was to be expected that when
Madame Petrova returned to the
legitimate stage she would not follow
the beaten path. She said several
years ago that she would never again
appear in plays of the Camille"
type. Her preference is for plays that
not only entertain but that throw
light on modern social movements.
And this preference is expressed in
"The White Peacock" romantic
play of modern Spain, which she
wrote herself and in which she is
being presented by the Selwyns-for
limited engagement of two days,
Friday and Saturday, December
and 10, with a Saturday matinee at
the Playhouse, in Wilmington.
Not only Spanish but English
characters play prominent parts in
this romantic drama, rejecting Ma
dame Petrova's wide experience as 6
real woman Of the world; but Spair
was chosen for the scenes on account
of it's romantic atmosphere and it:
constant conflict between medieva
and modern ideas. Besides, sucl
scenes afforded opportunities fol

The Nobel Prize Again
Goes to a French Writer

For the fourth time since 1901, the
prize for the greatest contribution to
the worlds literature, has been
awarded to a French writer, Anatole
France. During many years he has
put forth great volume Of literary
art in various forms. To Americans
his work is not generally well known
except through the books from which
the librettos for the operas, "Thals"
and The Juggler of Notre Dame"
were written, and through "The
Crime of Sylvester Bonnerd," which
is perhaps his best known novel IN
this country. Critics agree that al
most all of the writings of Anatole
France is triumph in the clear and
simple expression of ideas, quality
which is not wholly lost by the best
translations.
So far no American has won the
Nobel Prize for literature. The prize
comes from a foundation created by
the will of a famous Swedish chemist
who was the inventor of dynamite
The proceeds of this foundation are
to be devoted under the terms OF the
will to annual prizes of about S4O,Ool
each for the greatest work in physics
medicine, chemistry, literature, ant

SERGEANT FRASER
HIGHLY HONORED
Local Soldier Rounds Out
Forty Years of Service
With Uncle Sam

Down in the gun room OF Old Col

cons brook "has stayed on forever"
is where Sergeant John Fraser, hid
himself on last Thursday, after be-
;nr accorded the unique honor of
having the Cadet Battalion, of the
University of Delaware, turn out for
his review.
Tears come with sadness, they are
+bo tears of sorrow, but the tears

those Of happiness and it was tears
Of this nature that glistened in the

seen by a representative of the Post.
According to the sergeant never be-
fore in his forty years of service had
bo been so honored and it is very
seldom that any non-commissioned
man receives the full honors of a

Churlish around home, which he con-
siders place where one can lay aside
good manners and the decencies of
life.
II you were in the matrimonial in
surance business. you wouldn't risk
two cents on the chance OF happiness
that any girl would have married to a
man like that. You know that he
will probably never be able TO make
even a fair living for his family, and
that he will vent his spleen over his
failure on his poor wife You know
that when a man of that sort finds
that he has TO deny himself his per-
sonal indulgences to support his wife
that his love vanishes, and he hates
her because she stands in the way of
his pleasures. You know just how
stingy, and mean. and cruel, and
tyranical that kind of man can be
to a woman who is in his power.
The. man you want your little girl
to marry is big, strong, self reliant
man who has proved himself, who
has higher aspirations than being a
good dancer, or Sticking back his hair
You want man who can take care
of her, guard her, and who will be
tender, and wise, and true-not a
jelly bean like her brother.
Yet you are going to let some other
girl wreck her life marrying the hull
band you have prepared for her.

mans inhumanity to man that makes
