A. r., has come out with a state
ment in favor. Of Mr.. ogden for
United States Senator His state
ment follows:

qualifications and no man in the
state stands, his peer for the office.
II Mr. Ogden is nominated, his
election is assured as he has no
blemish on his name and numbers

ISAAC'S SCHOOL NOTES
(near GeOrgetOWn)

The month of October ended last
Tuesday finding our attendance bet
! ter than that for September. The fol-
/ lowing making perfect attendance:
Sudler Wilson, Marie Pritchett, Ha-
eel King and Glenna Wilson; while
good attendance was made by Eva
King, Helen Spicer, Dorothy Short,
Catherine Jester, Reese Jester, Thos.
Pritchett and Woodrow Wilson.
Our school has organized two
teams-Catherin Jester being cap
tain of the "Blue" team and Thomas
Pritchett captain of the RED" team.
The aim of the teams is better atten-
dance. The "Blues" are now leading.
The nurse and DR.. Joe NAPLES of
Georgetown visited our school this
month and examined the children,
stressing especially the great impor-
tance of children drinking milk and
the value of good teeth as being es-
sential to good health, which is bet
ter than riches.
A number of the children we're
found to be underweight. 1t is hoped
by the next time the nurse calls they
will be up to the standard.
The children are planning a Thanks
giving entertainment, at which we are
hoping to see the whole community
present.
The last word is to the parents of
all the children of Isaac's school: Will

CHILD WELFARE
IN DELAWARE

Now that we have had our vacations
and are all back on the job again, and
have begun to put into operation ouI
plans for the coming year, let us not
forget that all of us who are trying to
do something, be it for the children or
their parents, are doing that some
thing for the State of Delaware
through its citizens, present and fu-
ture. Each of us in our chosen field
feels and knows that his particular
piece of work is good work, and
needful to the State. We also know, or
should know, that our particular piece
of work is only part, a cog, in a
great movement which is not only
statewide but nationwide, to edu-
cate and relieve the people.
Considered locally, the Associated
Charities, for instance is of the great
est help to the Child Welfare Commits
sion. Without their help we would be
immensely handicapped; indeed much
of our work would have to be left I'M
DONE The Child Welfare Commission
in turn is useful to the Associated
Charities. The same applies to the
Federated Children's Agencies and
the Delaware Children's Home Socie-
ty. To both of these agencies we try
to be of service and they are Of great
service to us. These organizations are
mentioned because, I suppose, we
come in contact with them more fire.
quently and thus they first arise in
mind. But there is no organization
doing work in the State with whom
we do not all come in contact and be-
tween whom some mutual exchange
of service does not take place.
This is frankly a plea for co-opera-
ton, for not only a continuation of
the cooperation received in the past,
but for more of it. The Child We'll
fare Commission has its peculiarities
just as you have, and it makes it's
mistakes. Lets hope you don't make
so many! For both it asks your con-
sideration and charity.
Let us all go into the work this year
with the idea that, knowing all have
a big job to tackle, we will tackle that
Job shoulder to shoulder. The weak
ness of one is the weakness of all. The
strength of one should be the strength
of all. Let those Of us who have
strength, therefore, use it for the ben
eft of all. Let us help one another. In
this way and in this way only can we
really hope to succeed and do the
most for the State.
