The CHEEKY trees blossom in the

of their blooming ten Thousand

1t is this though that underlies
the religion of the east. The gist of
Buddhism is that NO mind should
love material things. 1t teaches that
the universe is an illusion, that life
is but a monetary halt upon an in
finite journey, and that all attach
ment to persons, to places or to
places or to things must be fraught
with sorrow
This faith does not produce pessi-
mism and despair; on the contrary
it gives capacity to bear all things
bravely. and gives to the japanese
and the Chinese a patience which
the western world might we'll envy
1t was this truth that was per-
ceived by the old Greek philosopher
who was called Heraclitus the Obs
cure, who taught that all existence
is but beginning. If we properly
grasp this idea, it may be to us a
source of inner strength, for by II
we can reach that impersonality and
wise indifference which is the core
of all wisdom,
This is not the cry of dispair, but
it is the voice of the seer who pre-
ceives that the only permanent
thing is the spirit and that those
who believe lin matter are under a
delusion. The only thing that matt
ers upon this globe is the life upon
it's surface, and the thoughts which
that life has produced. All the rest
is stage machinery, which shall be
put away when the play is over.

Fortune May Come
to Sussex People

A large estate of several million
dollars left in England by the late
PembortOn McCabe, formerly of Bal
timore hundred, is the exciting news
that has arrived to disturb the many
members of the McCabe family in
lower Delaware. A letter from a firm
of English solicitors to William R.
McCabe, a Selbyville banker, was the
first news of the fortune. The solici-
tors had found Mr. McCabe's name in
a business directory of the United
States and wrote for information.
According to the letter Pemberton
McCabe owned large steel works in
England and on his death his for
tune would have reverted to the
crown unless some legal heirs were
found. McCabe was well known by
the older residents here having been
a captain of vessels for many years.
When he did not return to his old
home it was reported that he had
been lost at sea. News that he had
settled in England and died a rich
man was the first that had been
heard of him since his disappearance
3orty years ago. There are about six
y legal heirs in Baltimore hundred
Ilone. Their case is to be presented to
he English courts.

WILL ASK RETURN OF
DELAWARE'S SILVER SET
State Wants to Preserve Me-
mentO Given Namesake in
United States Navy.

Josiah Marvel has started a move
ment to secure the return of the beau
tiful silver service which was pre-
sented by the people of this state to
the United States battleship Delaware
on October 5, 1910. The service cost
approximately $4,000 and it's makers
boasted it was the most beautiful
piece of silver service ever presented
to a battleship.
Mr.. Marvel who was ce-chairman
of the presentation committee con-
suited with Captain Horace Wilson,
chairman of the committee, who
heartily endorsed the movement and
asked Mr.. Marvel to go ahead. While
the battleship Delaware is the last
vessel listed for the scrap heap, Mr..
Marvel is taking up the matter with
the Navy Department and is soliciting
the aid of United States Senators Ball
and du POnt and Congressman Lay
ton. If the silver set is returned it
will be placed either in the archives
of the Delaware Historical Society or
the new Public Library.
The presentation of the silver set
was a statewide affair and created
much interest as the money for the
service was raised by contributions
ranging from one cent. The battle
ship was anchored in the Delaware
River off the mouth of the Christiana
and the presentation committee ac-
comDanied by hundreds of citizens,
jOurneyed to the vessel on the steam
er. CITY of Wilmington. Governor
Simeon S. Pennewill made the pre-
sentation speech in which he dwelt on
the desire of the world for universal
peace. Mr.. Marvel who looked after
the details of the arrangement was
presented at the time with a silver
plate engraved with the autograph
of the members of the
committee. ....

team added another victory to the one
with Laurel by defeating FELTON, High

visitors made before the game it
looked as though Milford would be de:
feated. But once the game had start
ed FELTON, was unable to score more
than three field goals, these being
Gagged in the first half. The score for
the first half was 1911 in favor of
Milford. At times the passing of Eel
ton was superior to that of the local
team, but this advantage was lost in
their failing to shoot accurately. Both
teams fouled considerably and the
contest was decided by foul shooting.
In this Milford had the advantage as
