WILD DUCKS BY THOUSANDS
Delaware City Residents Say They
Never Saw so Many Birds Before

During the past few days great
numbers of wild ducks have been us
ing the cove in the river just above
Sadler's wharf. Several residents
made the statement that they never
saw so many ducks as close to the
town before and estimated the number
in the huge flock at $4,000. Black
ducks constitute the great majority
with grays second. The ducks seem
to be increasing in numbers around
this vicinity each year, and this is
due, it is claimed, to the law enacted
by the state legislature several years
ago, which prohibits spring shooting.
The season closes on February IL now
and large numbers Of the ducks re-
main in the local marshes the year
round and breed. Five or six years
back there were hardly any ducks
around here in the early fall. The
shooting is getting better each yeal
and is due to forsighted game protec-
tion.

MILFORD JOYOUS OVER ROAD
Gives Celebration on Completion of
Harrington Milford and DUPONT Road

Milford and duP0nt ROAD
Milford chose Halloween evening
for celebrating the opening of the new
concrete State Aid road leading from
that town to Harrington and seldom
if ever in the history of the town were
there SO many people gathered togeth-
er within it's limits. Automobiles of
every sort and kind were parked on
both sides of every street in the town
and extending to its very limit. The
principal streets were lined on both
sides from building line to the outer
edge of pavements with people, hun
dreds and hundreds of whom came
from as far away as Dover, George
town and Greenwood. While the num-
ber of people from the nearer towns
were legion. An attractive parade
made up of the fire companies and
floats headed by a band passed
through the principal streets ending at
the Plaza an South Milford. Here a
large truck had been placed from
which the speaking was made. The
meeting was organized by Rev. Jacobs
who with a few appropriate remarks
introduced Hon. Joseph E. Holland as
chairman of the meeting. Mr.. Hol
land made a most effective speech
dealing principally with good road
construction in Delaware. Mr.. Hol-
land is a member of the State High
way Commission and the information
he gave was of course first hand. At
the end of his remarks Mr.. Holland
introduced Hon. Richard R. Kenney,
who made the chief address of the
evening. Mr.. Buck, Chief Engineer
of the Highway Department, and Mr..
Beers, President of the Kent County
Levy Court, were among those on the
platform. After Mr.. Kenney had fin
ished his address Mr.. Buck was intro
duced and made a few appropriate re-
marks, after which the meeting ad-

Expires at His Home in Hartly After
an Illness of Six Months
Walter Douglas Hawkins, son of the
late Clayton f. and Sarah L. Hawkins
died at his late residence, near Hartly,
early Tuesday morning, October 81.
Although in poor health for six
months, yet his death came as a shock
to his many friends, being confined
to the house less than two weeks. Mr..
Hawkins was born in Dover, and was
a graduate of Wesley Collegiate Insti-
tute in 1880. For several years he
was engaged in teaching and farming.
In 1898 he went to New Haven, Conn.,,
and later to New York City, where he
was engaged in the newspaper work.
Ten years ago he returned to Della
ware, and again took up farming near
Hartly, Delaware. Mr.. Hawkins was
always an active figure in public af-
fairs, and especially for the promotion
of the good of public schools. At the
time of his death he was one of the
directors of the West Dover Trust
Company and a member of the Hartly
school board. Besides his mother and
sister Miss Emma s., who resides with
him, he is survived by sister, Mrs.
Laura Hawkins Matthias, of Los An
geles, Cal, and his two brothers, JOS
eph T., of Atlantic City, and Charles
S., of Philadelphia. Funeral services
were held at his late residence Friday
afternoon, and interment at Lakeside
cemetery, Dover.

PART TWO.

CHAPTER I.

Sabre, ambling his bicycle along
the pleasant lanes toward lid
borough one fine morning in the
early summer of 1912, was met in his
thoughts by observation, as he
topped a rise, of the galloping prog
ress of the light railway that was to
link up the Penny Green Garden
Home with Tidborough and Chovens-
bury.
Here was a subject that interested
him and that intensely interested
Mabel, and yet it could never be men,

"Ass" laughed voice above
them; and Sabre, who had almost for

he had abruptly Weakened and dis

The other horse was standing with
complete and entirely unconcerned
statuesqueness on the low bank
which bounded the lane on his other
side. Lady Tybar had taken it--or it

GO ON WITH THE STORY.
TIT

Sabre had been promised full part
nership by Mr.. Fortune. He desired
it very greatly. The apportienment
of duties in the establishment was
that Sabre managed the publishing
department. Twyning supervised the
factory and workshops wherein the
ecclesiastical and scholastic furni-
ture was produced, and Fortune
supervised his two principals and
every least employee and smallest
detail of all the business.
In 1912 Sabre felt that he had now
brought the publishing into line with
the established departments. He had
emphasized the firms reputation in
this activity by the considerable sue.

Modern History"
The tributes with which this slim
history primer of one hundred and
, fifty pages for eighteen pence had
/ been greeted inspired Sabre towards
a much holder work, on which the
early summer of 1912 saw him be-
ginning and into which he found
himself able to pour in surprising
volume scoughts and feelings which
he had scarcely known to be his
until the pen and the paper began to
attract them. The title he had con-
ceived alone stirred them in his mind
and drew them from it as magnet

Mabel called Sabre's school text
books those lesson books" After
she had thus referred to them two or
three times he gave up trying to in
terest her in them. The expression
hurt him, but when he thought upon
it he reasoned with himself that he
had no cause to be hurt.
Later he never mentioned Eng
land'' to her. But he most desper-
ately wanted to talk about it to
someone.
He was not actively aware of it,
but what, in those years, he came to
crave for as a starved child Graves
food was sympathy of mind.
He found it, in Penny Green, with
what Mabel called "the most extraor-
binary people," "What you can
find in that Mr.. Fargus and that
young Perch and his everlasting
mother" she used to say, Il simply
cannot imagine"
II.
Mr.. Fargus, who lives next door
down the Green, was a gray little
man with gray whiskers and always
in a gray suit. He had large and
very red wife and six thin and rather
yellowish daughters.
And there were the Perches-
'Young Perch and that everlasting
old mother of his" as Mabel called
them.
Sabre always spoke of them as
Young Rod, Pole or PERCH and
"Old Mrs. Rod, Pole or Perch" This
was out of what Mabel called his
childish and incomprehensible habit
of giving nicknames-High Jinks and
Low links the outstanding and
never-forgotten example Of it.
Mrs. Perch was fragile little body
whose life should have been and
could have been divided between her
bed and bathchair.
She was intensely weak-sighted, but
she never could find her glasses;
and she kept locked every
thing that would lock, but she never
could find her keys. She held Off

ground-that in the narrow lane he
was between two plunging horses
Their riders had divided to make way
for his bemused approach.
On one side the lane was banked
steeply up in cutting. The horse
of the rider on this side stood on its
hind legs and appeared to be per-
forming a series of postman's double
knocks on the bank with its forelegs.
Lord Tybar, who bestrode it, and
who did not seem to be at all con-

Derry and Toms, a winner at several
shows"
Derry and Toms stepped down off
the bank with complete assurance
and superb dignity. With equal pre-
cision, moving his feet as though
there were marked for them certain
exact spots which he covered with
infinite iehtness and exactitude, he
turned about aud stood beside his
partner in exquisite and immobile
pose.
III
Thus the two riders faced Sabre,
smiling upon him. He stood holding
his bicycle Immediately in front of
them. The mare continued to culver
her beautiful nostrils at him; every
now and then she blew a little agi-
tate puff through them, causing
them to expand and reveal yet more
delicacy.
Sabre thought that the riders, with
their horses, made the most striking,
and somehow affecting picture Of
virile and graceful beauty he could
ever have imagined.

was debonair and attractive of coun-

of that" before their names, but she
was very fond of that Mr.. Sabre"
and Sabre returned great affection
for her.
Young Perch was a tall and slight
young man with happy laugh and
an air which suggested to Sabre,
after puzzlement, that his spirit was
only alighted in his body as bird
alights and swings upon twig, not
engrossed in his body.
Sabre was extraordinarily attract
ed by the devotion between the pair.
Their interests, their habits, their
thoughts We're IS widely sundered
as their years, yet each was wholly
and completely bound up in the
other. When Sabre sat and talked
with Young Perch Of an evening, old
Mrs. Perch would sit with them, next
her son, in an armchaj~ asleep. At
intervals she would start awake and
say ENORMOUSLY, Now I suppose l
must be driven off to bed"
Young Perch, net pausing in
what he might be- saying, would
stretch a hand and lay it on his
mothers. Mrs. Perch, IS though
Freddies hand touched away enor-
nous WEAKNESS end care, would sigh
restfully erd sleep again
1t gave Sabre extraordinary sensa-
tons.
If he had been asked to name his
particular friends these were the
friends he would have named. He
saw them constantly. lnfrequently
he saw another. Quite suddenly she
came back into his life.
Mona returned into his life.
