German Ship Sails
Up Delaware River

The S. S. Deutschfeld, of the
United American Line, the first Ger
man steamship to enter Philadelphia
since the war, sailed up the river on
Thursday and docked at Pier 49,,
South, seventeen days after leaving
Hamburg with a general cargo.
Apparently more than willing to
discuss topics of interest, ranging
from the World War to the present
conditions in their fatherland, officers
of the vessel, one of whom had been
an officer on a German submarine,
welcomed and cheerfully answered all
questions put to them by interviewers.
According to First Mate Proem-
piefer, Germany is virtually the one
country which has "rolled up its
sleeves and got down to earnest
labor" Her people, he said, are re-
signed to their burdensome taxation,
are plodding ahead with their char
acteristic doggedness and enjoy a
peculiar content with things gener-
ally.

BISHOP COOK breaches
STRONG SERMON
World Reforms Due to Eco
nomic Rather than Moral
Standards

Bishop Philip Cook, bishop of the
Diocese of Delaware, delivered a
strong sermon in Wolf Hall Sunday
night on the aspects Of religion.
Bishop Cook spoke of the necessary
separation between the church and
the state, reminding us that neverthe-
less and although many do not realize
it the religious phase is bound up in
our lives, and is part of the very
atmosphere in which we live.
"During the middle ages" said the
Bishop, "the church scholars kept
alive what learning there was, and
how Mortified would be the old Oxford
scholars did they know that from
most Of our colleges men and women
receive an A. B. degree without
having any knowledge of the Bible.
Education needs more religion
the world needs more religion. Evi.
dence that politicians, rulers and
statesmen are coming to an apprecia.
tion of that fact today is found in the
reaction toward international peace

Klu Klux klan in Delaware

The mysterious and picturesque
Klu Klux Klan is in Delaware. Last
week an imperial officer of the organ
ization was in Dover for short time.
The exact location Of the branch is
not known.
The "Klan" was organized in the
reconstruction period following the
Civil War. 1t died down and has re-
Gently been brought back to life
again.
"Our organization" said the i'm.
perial representative in Dover, "does
not countenance any lawlessness. II
takes no part as an organization ir
any political or religious controversy
and it comedies the right of every
man to think, vote and worship Goo
as he pleases."
"Only native born white American
citizens who believe in the tenents o.
the Christian religion and who ow'
no allegiance of any degree or nature
to any foreign government or insti
tuition, religious or political, are elegi
BILE for membership"
The representative in Dover re
| fused to admit his name or address
where he came from or where he wa
going.

Reimbursement Fund
for Teachers
Fund Not Sufficient for Expenses
Student Council Unable to
Effect Redistribution

The amount appropriated for de-
fraying expenses OF the Summer
School of the University of Delaware
is not sufficient this year to pay the
entire expenses of all students. The
amount appropriated is $4,000, the
same as it has been heretofore; but
the enrolment this year is approxi-
mately $50, exclusive of nonresident
teachers and others not entitled to
reimbursement; and in addition to
this there are about 45 Delaware
teachers attending Summer Schools
outside of the State, making total
of about 295 entitled to reimburse
ment.
The actual expenses, including
board and return car fare, of each
student are estimated at $50. Under
ruling of the State Board of Educa-
tion all teachers who are compelled to
attend the Summer School this year
in order to have their certificates re-
newed were promised full reimburse
ment up to the amount of $50. All
other teachers came to the school with
the understanding that they, too,
would be reimbursed. That they will
not, entails some hardship and sacri-
flee on their part.
The Student Council in whose
hands Superintendent Holloway left
the matter of distribution of the in
adequate fund has turned over the
matter to the State Board. 1t is ex-
pected that those who are entitled to
reimbursement will receive an amount
up to $50, and the other teachers will
share equally in the remainder of the
fund appropriated.

Severe Hail Storm

Sunday afternoon Newark residents
witnessed the most severe hail storm
in years. For nearly half an hour
hail-stones, the size of hickory nuts,
rained down, doing considerable dam
age about town. Several windows in
the Deer Park Hotel were broken and
also a large window in the home of
Charles Strahorn on Amstel avenue.
The corn crop is suffering some
damage from the hail storm, but is
not seriously impaired, say the farm
ers.

NEAR DROWNING ON
CONTINENTAL AVENUE
Child Saved by Charlie Wright

An accident which might have been
fatal one for little William Lloyd
occurred Friday as a result of the
storm. The little fellow, who is the
son of William Lloyd Of Continental
Avenue, and is not quite three years
old, was playing in the street after
the rain. While padding in the water
at the side of the street. he feel and
was drawn by the swollen stream
under the culvert in front of his
home. The child sank twice and was
unable to regain his feet in the rush
ing current when Charlie Wright of
Continental Avenue, who happened
along just at that time, fished out the
little fellow. The child would un-
doubtedly have drowned had not help
arrived when it did.

STATE GUARD AT
CAMP CHANDLER
Two Weeks Intensive Train
ing on State Rifle Range

The National Guard of Delaware
encamped Monday on the State Rifle
Range, south of New Castle, for two
weeks annual training course. Much
interest is being shown, as this is the
first encampment for the Delaware
Regiment since 1915, the Militia since
that year serving on the Mexican bor-
der in 1916, and in the World War the
following years.
BY noon Monday the entire State
Guard assembled at the camp. The
units of the Second Battalion from
Dover and Milford arrived at 11:3O
o'clock, those of Newark at 10 o'clock,
and those of New Castle at 8 o'clock.
Lieutenant-Colone John P. LeFevre
has been designated commander OF
the Second Battalion, with Major
George Schults commanding the First
Battalion.
Nearly 800 men are in camp, and 1T
is estimated nearly two-thirds Of them
were in the service during the World
War. Camp has been pitched on the
southern field of Rifle Range adjoin-
ing the estate of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam S. Hilles. The northern field is
to be used for drills and for anti-air-
craft and target practice. Some air
planes and dirigible balloons may be
sent there to take part in the instruc-
ton course. While the men will be
trained in the basic infantry tactics
more attention will be devoted to anti
aircraft artillery instruction, includ'
ing the use of machine guns and the
anti-aircraft guns and tanks, it the
latter arrive on time.
The Delaware Regiment is no"
Known as the 198th Artillery Reg1
ment. The men wear the red cord Of
the artillery on their service hats.
During the encampment Delawar'
soldiers will be under the command o.
Colonel Harry w. Stark, of the regu
lar army. Those Of the four batter
les of the regiment are equipped VIII
