CHAIR OF HISTORY AND GOVERN

CHAIR OF HISTORY AND GOVERN
There is one department, however,
should like to mention. Several
years ago, the General Assembly made
provisions for a state Chair OF His
tory and Government, making an an
nual appropriation OF $500. This
department was definitely charged to
give courses in History, Political
Science and Economies with proper
consideration TO Delaware affairs. In
ill that time this work had been
done, incidentally, by the English De
pariment.

through these stirring years just
passed, when every citizen was call

seemed that our college men We're

government and statecraft as the hour

day featuring the studies for citizen

COLLECTION OF INCOME TAX.
In provisions looking 10 the in
crease OF revenue, some legislation
should be effected that will better
fortify the State treasurer in the col

reasonably certain that many Of our
citizens fail In assuming this obliga-
ton imposed by law. Those who
are wilfulls violating this law should
be speedily forced 10 comply or ac-
