How Car Should Be Washed Properly
Plain Water and Good Soap Should
 Be Used With Great Care.

One must never forget the funda- mental fact, says a local dealer. that plain water and a good soap such as MobO Auto Soap, is the prime essen tial in cleaning the car. Washing the car is not the casual job that to many owners seem to assume The lustrOus finish of the modern motor car is a irreparably by careless handling, or the use of improper soap.
 The car should be washed as soon as possible after it has become muddy or dirty. Start by turning a light force of water over body, running gear and top. Never turn the full force of the hose on the body. The best way to deal with the water, is to use a large sponge, a clean pail and Mobo Auto Soap The sponge should be sopped in the water and then
 The hood must never be washed while hot after a run. as that will dis color the surface Wait until it cools. To clean radiator turn a stream of water through it from the rear, so that the water passes out in front instead of getting into the engine and mechanism.
 In drying the body. a chamois skin, which is really a split sheepsl1in is best to use. Rub in a straight line and never in circles.
 In addition to the body, the top and upholstery need some attention. The top should be brushed once a week. both inside and outside. Fabric tops should never be cleaned with gasoline kerosene or other oils as that rots the rubber which is in their composition. The upholstery should be given a cleaning every week.

 Collision

Portland, Ore, May 29.-Six sail ors were killed and three injured in a collision of the British Steamer Welch Prince with the American-Hawaiian Steamer Iowan, early today in the Columbia River, Oregon, off Altoona according to wireless messages pick ed up at Fort Stevens.

DAWES.

One thrill is usually counted on for the success of the average motion pic ture feature. There are many in D. w. Grifiith's great dramatic epic
 Orphans of the Storm" an adapta- tion of Kate Claxton's -"The Two Orphans" and which under United Artists Corporation release, will be shown all this week at Dawes theatre, and in several of these Monte Blue is the hero. This famous actor, part rider in wild westerns" long since won stellar eminence, but MT. Griffith gave him the greatest role of his ca reer in the part of Danton, leader of the French Revolutionary uprising.
 Early in the story Danton's life is sought by the hired thugs that the Royalists employed to kill off the Revolutionists. Danton fights the ad- vance guard superbly, then finds refuge in the lodgings of the orphan Henriette Girard, who by clever ruse diverts the pursuers elsewhere. Later, Danton repays the favor by leading for the girls life before the Revolutionary Tribunal and by riding with her reprieve even to the steps Of the guillotine.
 The ride to the rescue is punctuated ty a battle between horseman and a group of the Robespierre faction This Is thrilling affair at the gate of Paris. The horses belong to the U. s. cavalry, and the riders cavalry have been so photographed that they seem to be rushing on the theater-spectators who are Joking at them. The effect is said to surpass even the famed Klu Klux K1an ride in ''The Birth of Nation"

Tells of U. of d. Plans

America must do some great,
beautiful and living thing in memory
of those who died in war. When it
will be and what it will be, is now in
debate in certain parts. On the
initiative of the Alumni Association
of the University of Delaware this
question has been settled in that
commonwealth. The people of that
little state have been asked to lay
voluntarily upon the altar of love and
memory, a sum equal to one dollar
and a half for each man, woman and
child in that little community,
amounting to 100000. This will be
done by the first of November and
will be the first memorial to the dead
who died in the war voluntarily by
the whole people of state.
Library as Memorial
"This memorial will take the form
of beautiful library located on the
campus of the University of Della
ware where the children of all gen.
erations may sit in the shadow of the
wisdom of all ages and vision the
patriotism of those who fought and
died for their country and also vision
the love and gratitude of those others
who builded because they did not for
get.
"Have the people of Delaware done
well? Then let others follow. Do
the others hesitate? Do they hold
back? Do they fail to respond? Does
dullness cloud their minds or selfish
ness grip their hearts? Then let us
pray,
Lord God of Hosts be with us vet

business of this kind at stake. There
was no doubt in the minds of all that
heard Mr.. Wilder that he meant bust
ness and all he wanted was the full
cooperation of the citizens of the
town.
Mr.. Brown then took the floor and
supplemented Mr.. Wilder's talk in
few instances. He stated that when
all the units of the book publishing
departments were established and
working full time, payroll of be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 would be
brought into Elkton weekly. Needless
to say this statement made the hearts
Of many of the merchants present
miss beat. The working conditions
in plant of this type are ideal. The
one principle which Golfers has al
ways held to in their many years of
business has been the establishment
of ideal relations between the en-
ployers and employees.
The moving Of the plant would con-
sumo approximately a year and a
half. In the first place, production
must go on without fail and in the
second place, the new labor must be
taught their work by experienced
men and women from the home plant.
All this takes time and the first few
months will see the new plant en-
ploying only forty or fifty people. Be-
tween sixty and seventy per cent of
the labor will be female, according
to Mr.. Brown. The plant will be
moved in units, thus not hindering
the existing manufacture of books.
After few remarks by the citi-
zens present, Mr.. Keppler moved that
a committee of five or seven be ap-
pointed to confer with the gentlemen
from New York relative to details con-
nected with the transfer of the bust
ness. This motion was carried unani-
mously by the assemblage. 1t was
amended however and the name of
Mr.. Miller was included to act as
chairman and to appoint the other
members. From then on the meeting
assumed an informal discussion of the
proposal.

Delaware and the Eastern Shore"
Some Aspects of a Peninsula Pleas
ant and Well Beloved. By Edward
Noble Vallandigham, author of FIFTY
Years of Delaware College" Eighty
Illustrations. Philadelphia, Pa: j. B.
Lippincott Co. ($5)
There is vague legend which many
old residents were wont to quote with
favor, and which public speakers oc-
casionally employed to embellish adj
dresses to local assemblages, that the
Peninsula of Delaware and the East
ern Shore was the ancient Garden of
Eden where the world was begun.
And they employed this smile to con-
vey an impression of the loneliness of
their famed country, and its desir-
ability as home for man, affording
him, from its productive abundance,
everything essential to human exist
ence, with many comforts and even
Injuries. DR.. Vallandigham does not
advance this claim in his admirable
book, Delaware and the Eastern
Shore" just issued from the press
of j. B. Lippincott Co., PHILADELPHIA.
but he presents, in text and illustra-
ton, faithful picture that comes
very much akin to portrayal of what
the original Garden of Eden might
readily seem to have been.
All residents of the Peninsula, from
Brandywine to Cape Charles, will well
come this fine production, and all will
find in it, in addition to it's general in
formation and exquisite picturing,
something of direct interest to their
nome communities. To them it's I'M
varying excellence also will appeal
most pleasingly. To those who are
strangers to its attractions there will
be the same interest and pleasure in
reading of them that pertains to all
good books telling of lands which to
the readers are foreign, and which in
many instances they can never hope
to visit. For Delaware and the East
ern Shore is the delightful bit of
country that DR.. Vallandigham so
effectively pictures. Even those who
in their previous ignorance and lack
of information have joined in gibes
at its supposed homely primitiveness
and lack of world-knowledge have
been converted by even cursory visit
and become its delighted devotees.
10 our own people there will be
special appeal in this fine book be-
cause DR.. Vallandigham is a son of
Delaware, born in this State and a
careful student of its history and
traditions. Here he is well known and
has many friends, while to Whining
ton people he is especially remem-
bered as editor of Every Evening and
a resident of our city for several
years.

ELkTON AGOG OVER
NEW INDUSTRY

Continued from Page 0ne.)
Manufacture of Golfers Inc, has
been to Elkton on two different occa-
sions and frankly is pleased with the
surroundings and attitude of the
people.
Mr.. Walter Brown, member of the
Board of Directors and personal rep
resentative of the president came
down from New York last Thursday
with Mr.. Wilder and addressed a
meeting of citizens, held in the Court
House.
A motion was carried by the as
semblage of citizens calling for the
appointment of a committee of five
or seven men to confer at an early
date with the representatives Of
Golfers. This committee is headed by
Thomas w. Miller, prominent
banker of Elkton. AS yet the commit
tee has not been appointed, but
definite action is expected within two
or three days at the least.
These are the facts of the situation
as it now stands. From opinions
given by various citizens of the town
the outlook for the new industry
coming to Elkton is very bright and
everyone is enthusiastic over the
proposition. Golfers is a nationally
known business house and has been
in operation for the past forty-six
years. They have come forward with
direct and frank proposition, with
no dangling clauses and loopholes. 1t
is now up to the town of Elkton to
accept or refuse the new industry.
The whole matter was brought to
the attention Of the town through
the >vice-president of the Jcssup and
Moore Paper Co., who happens to be
warm friend of Mr.. Wilder. Mr..
D. j. Ayerst, manager of their local
plant was also prime mover in the
project and arranged the details of
the meeting last Thursday.
The Meeting
The open meeting held last Thurs
day evening in the Court House
brought out nearly a hundred citizens
of the town, including prominent
business men, members of Council
and others interested in the proposi-
ton. Mayor William Makel opened
the meeting with a brief explanation
of its object and then turned the
chair over to Mr.. Miller, who intro
duced the first speaker, Mr.. Wilder,
director of manufacture and member
of the board of directors of Golfers.
This gentleman spoke in a clear-cut,
decisive way and made very plain the
facts which caused the proposed re-
moval. The plant in the west side of
New York, he said, had far outgrown
itself. The business has doubled
ltSell IN Tour years, and the need for
more floor space was making the sit
uation acute. There was nothing
left to do but to remove the book
part of the concern to a
smaller town. Wherever the plant is
located there are only two conditions
which must satisfy Golfers: The new
site must have adequate railroad
facilities for shipping and receiving;
and the town must back up the con-
Germ whole heartedly by supplying as
much of the labor needed as possible.
These are the only stipulations and
in return Golfers place their reputa-
ton Of over forty years experience in
