Spread OF Scarlet
Fever Seems Checked
Women's College Reopened
and Only One New Case
in Town Reported

The town went back to normalcy
again on Monday when the Women's
College reopened after being closed
for about ten days as a result of the
discovery of case Of scarlet fever
among the students. AS soon as the
case was discovered the college was
ordered closed and all the students
were sent to their homes. As a re-
suit the population of Newark was
somewhat smaller during the past
few days
A questionnare was sent out by the
college authorities to learn if any of
the other students had contracted the
fever while at home but there had
been none and Dean Robinson and DR..
Walter Steel decided that it was safe
to open the college and studies got
underway again on Monday.
AS to the town there has been only
about one new case reported this
week and the authorities are of the
opinion that the spread of the dis
ease has been checked. All the school
rooms are, again opened and Superin-
tendent Owens says that as far as
he can learn no new cases have been
discovered among the pupils of any
of the schools.
There have been two outbreaks of
scarlet fever here in Newark but
neither time has the situation gotten
beyond the control of the authorities
During the first outbreak the Board
of Education ordered all the schools
closed. This brought storm of pro-
test from some quarters but the ad-
visibility of the closing of the schools
was shown when the spread was
checked.
Many of the victims of the second
outbreak are now well again and able
to be out and some of them have
returned to their studies in the
schools. Not one of the local cases
was serious and no deaths resulted

Local Roads Prove
Menace To Public
Pedestrians Forced to Use
Roadbed for Walking
Heavy Traffic Now Due

There is hardly a day that passes
that one is not able to pick up news
paper and read of someone being kill
ed by an automobile. Sometimes we
blame the motorists, this is the gen
eral rule, other times we blame the
pedestrian but who are we going to
blame when neither of the former can
help themselves.
1t seems that many of the acci-
dents in various parts of the country
are blameable on neither the motorist
or the "footist" but on the authori-
ties who have failed to provide place
for persons to walk along roads and
streets.
Newark is going to have this fact
brought home to it forcibly in the
near future unless conditions are
remedied to some extent. The places
where the danger is greatest are on
Delaware avenue along the college
property. One death has already re-
suited from the lack Of sidewalk at
this point and it would not be sur
prising to see another at any time.
There is no sidewalk on either side
of this street and although the street
is rather wide there is quite a great
deal of traffic and this makes walk
ing in the street dangerous.
Another point which is outside Of
the Towns limits, that is even more
dangerous than Delaware avenue, is
Depot Road from the end of the walk
in front of Women's College to the
railroad tracks. Here one takes his
life in his own hands every time he
attempts to walk along the road.
A utomobile busses, trucks, pleasure
cars, horse and wagons all combine
to make this stretch one of the most
dangerous in this section for the ped
estrian. There is absolutely no place
for person to walk except in the
roadbed and with the heavy traffic
on this road it is small wonder that
someone has not been killed already

CROSSING ACCIDENT
John MacMurray, Student,
Knocked from Automobile

What came close to resulting in a
fatal accident occurred at the cross
ing of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road last week when John MacMur-
ray, local school student, was knock
ed from the running board of an au-
tomobile into the path of an ap-
preaching train.
The boy was riding on the side Of
the machine on his way to school.
The machine had just started across
the crossing when the gates came
down and struck young MacMurray.
He was knocked from the machine to
the track. A companion in the ma
chine grasping the seriousness of the
situation alighted from the machine
and dragged the victim from the
tracks. The youg man was knocked
unconscious by the gate and also re-
ceived mean cut on the head. He
was taken to his home where it was
found that his injury was not serious.

William "Hazo" Barton is dead.
With his death comes grief to his
many friends and acquaintance. His
death follows closely on that of his
wife who was buried last Tuesday.
The husband died on Thursday night
at his home on West Main Street fol-
lowing an illness of a little over a
week. The deceased was 80 years Of
age. For the past twenty-six years
"Hazo," as he was generally known,
has been employed as janitor at the
University of Delaware. There is not
a graduate or an undergraduate Of
this length of time who did not hold
Mr.. Barton in high esteem. His popu-
larity was not confined tothe college
for he was civic figure and his many
friends in Newark and vicinity are
counted by the score.
Besides his duties at the college
Mr.. Barton had looked after the well
fare of his wife up until the time he
was taken down sick shortly before
her death. The wife of the deceased
had for many years previous to her
death been an invalid.
Saturday, week ago, when his wife
died Mr.. Barton was grief stricken
and shortly after her death he COL
lapsed. He was unable to attend his
wife's funeral on Tuesday.
That the death of his wife had a
great mental effect on Mr.. Barton is
shown by the fact that until the time
of her death he had never been con-
fined to his bed by illness although
80 years of age. But when she died
he seemed to lose the hold on the "old
fighting spirit" and it was not long
before the Grim Reaper claimed him.
A scene that will be missed by the
people of Newark will be the straight
six-foot figure Of "Hazo." The de-
ceased was never known to wear an

$4,000 Fire At
Ewing Bros Farm
Early Sunday Blaze Destroys
7 Automobiles, 7 Cows,
and Other Property

One of the most disastrous fires
that has invaded this vicinity for a
long time on Sunday destroyed the
large double-decker barn of Morris
and Emory Ewing, just northwest of
Newark. The fire which could be
plainly seen from this town caused
loss of over $4,000.
The loss included seven valuable
cows, seven automobiles, three valu-
able breeding dogs, one pig and all
the grains that were stored in the
barn.
Emory Ewing was the first to dis
cover the fire. He awoke about tbs
o'clock and hearing cracking noise
looked from his window and seen
! clouds of smoke rolling from the barn.
Realizing the seriousness of the blaze
he at once called his brother and
Norris Gillespie, who makes his home
there. The later was the first one to
reach the scene of the blaze and on
opening the doors of the barn seen
that one entire end was ablaze. Ac-
cording to him the blaze must have
started in the hay NOW for that was
where the fire was when he opened
the doors but in a few seconds the
whole structure seemed to be ablaze.
The two Ewing boys rushed into the
flaming structure and made their way
to the six horses therein. All the
horses were saved but Emory in get
ting some of the animals to safety
was severely burned about the hands.
According to persons at tn eblaze
as he went to get the last horse he
felt himself becoming faint, the re-
suit of the smoke that he inhaled, and
threw his arms around the horses
neck and was in this manner carried
out of the flaming barn.
The fire spread with such rapidity
that is was absolutely impossible to
save the cows that were burned al
though six were led to safety. The
automobiles which included an Oak
land, Moon, Dodge, Ford Coupe, two

NEED PROTECTION
Local Merchants See Light in
Proposed Board Of Trade

One thing that many of the mer.
chants of the town are in hopes that
the proposed New Board of Trade will
accomplish is proper protection fol
the merchants of the Town. Many
of the business men claim that al
the present time they might as well
hang signs on the doors inviting
thieves in for all the protection they
obtain.
1t is not claimed that the present
police officer does not do his work
properly, but it is claimed that there
are not enough men on the police
force. One man is not sufficient tC
patrol a town the size of Newark.
The present officer is not on duty
all night and this affords culprits
all the chance in the world to make
their hauls. A short time ago sew
eral merchants suggested that they
band together and hire a watchman
at their own expense but due to the
fact that the merchants were not
banded together no action was taken
on the matter.
The recent robbery at the Deer
Park Hotel has caused this sugges-
tion to come up again and it is thought
that with the Board of Trade func.
tioning some action might be taken
