THE SOLDIERS BONUS

The Secretary of the Treasury ap-
pears to stand pretty much alone in
the Administration in opposing the
soldiers bonus. He insists that
there is no feasible way to provide
for financing such i tremendous out
lay, and on second thought he trots
out the suggestion of increased first
and second-class postage and addi-
tional tobacco levied. OF course
Mr.. Mellon knows how unpopular
such measures always are, and it is
suggested that he has hit upon these
alternatives as means to bring dis
credit upon the bonus plan. Mean
while the American Legion has been
waging persistent campaign, and
from all appearance has Congress
thoroughly lined up in favor Of the
bonus.

Child Welfare Work
Shown at Kent
Sussex Fair

Kent and Sussex Counties held their
Fair July oath to 29th at Harrington.
1t was largely attended. The exhibits
of individuals and of State and County
organizations aounded in the crafts of
their particular bent and field.
Of course the Child Welfare was
there. In a corner of the county build
ing a room was screened against flies,
and white-walled with sheeting.
Therein was placed our simplest
Health Center equipment. Posters in
dicating the location, name of nurse,
and clinic day and hours, of our Cen
ters; another with the number of chill
dren visited by nurses and the number
of children visiting the Centers;
another with statictics showing the
reduction in infant deaths; and others
of important and telling data were
displayed prOminently-and what is
more, were read. Children automati-
cally came in to get weighed and
measured, although no attempt was
made to carry this on actively. Moth
ers came in for literature bearing on
child care and parental outfits, and
to ask advice about certain phases
of child care.
It was interesting to observe the
result of four years operation of
Child Welfare is the attitude of moth
ers, fathers, and other persons con-
cerned in the health of childhood, who
showed a responsiveness and accept
ance of the work the State is doing
in this respect. In former years az
Fairs such work was looked on ask
ance-it might be some good, but there
was considerable doubt. This year
the reaction to it left no doubt in the
minds of the workers where the
general public placed child health
work! Mothers continually stopped in
to ask the nurse if she remembered
such and such a little girl or boy.
"Well he had his teeth filed" or "his
eyes glassed," or "his throat treated,
since she saw him last.
One mother told of her fifteenth
baby! For the first time she had car
ried out definite medical advice be-
cause the nurse pursued her with such
and regularity that she was
"obliged to be good" The fifteenth
baby was the best, and she, for the
first time, was enjoying vigOr and
strength by observing a few simple
health rules such as she had never
done before. Her sister and her chill
dren her mother and her grandchil-
1ren, and all the near relatives paid
us visits and complimented the State
on this particular form of animal
Instance after instance
Of similar nature reached the ears of
nurses on duty at the Fair.
And, as one of our posters said, Does
it pay the State?" Well, we think 1t
loes!
So much for Kent and Sussex Fair.
Look out for results in New Castle
County Fair, which event occurs early
n September. M. L. T.

LEARNED TO ECONOMIZE

Old garments were remodeled by
farm women last year, as a result of
demonstrations by county extension
agents, into $4,000 up-to-date articles
of apparel, according to reports to the
United States Department Of Agricul-
tude. Under similar instruction 1867
900 new garments were made.
Pigs, poultry, potatoes, bread, cann-
ed vegetables and meats, and other
products which boys and girls en-
rolled in extension clubs grew or pre-
pared following demonstrations by
county extension workers were shown
in 4,900 exhibits at community fairs
and 5000 exhibits at county, district,
and state fairs last year, according to
reports to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.

EXCELLENT CHANCE AT FAIRS
TO STUDY GOOD LIVE STOCK

Exhibits of improved live stock and
poultry at county and State fairs this
year were unusually interesting. In
practically all parts of the country
excellent livestock exhibits were at
tractive features of fairs. The atten-
tion which breeders and farmers have
been giving to good live stock, COM
bined with good feed and care, have
resulted in some exceptionally we'll
bred and well-fitted animals.
In encouraging farmers to take ad-
vantage of the opportunities which
fairs and live stock exhibits give for
observing improved livestock and
poultry the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture places emphasis on the follow
ing points: Livestock displays afford
an opportunity to study breeds and
types and to see large number of
good animals. In the case of meet
animals the size, conformation, and
uniformity are worthy of special study
in view of increasing tendency to raise
purebred and high-grade stock as
market animals as well as for breed
ing.
Farmers attending livestock dis
plays obtain useful information by
meeting others who are interested in
superior breeding and feeding meth
DDS. Besides the ideas exchanged and
information gained, new enthusiasm
for the work is a common result. Ami
mails and poultry may be purchased
at most fairs, though as a rule it is
more satisfactory for a farmer to pur-
chase animals at the home of the
breeder than to buy fitted animals at
fairs. Animals that have been pre-
pared for exhibition usually are priced

SEPTEMBER sCHOOL-DAY SMILES

September is a month when the
gong summons young folks back tC
the schoolroOm. 1t brings the sum-
mer vacation to a close and ushers in
lessons which provide study for the
weekday evenings. Sometimes, the
youngsters are not over anxious tC
return to school after their carefret
days at the country, shore or noun
tains. But, the first day is usually the
hardest and soon they are rushing
along in routine just as though schOO
had been in session all summer. Oi
| course, generally speaking. school anC
studies are serious propositions
Nevertheless, humor frequently crops
up in the course of the daily sessions
Sometimes the teacher may ask q
question which offers opportunity fol
the class wit to answer humorOusly
On occasions a pupil may purposely
ask a question which is bound to in
Vite funny answer. Generally, how
ever, most of the humOr that is sprung
in schOolroOm is unintentiOnal. On

Films, such schOOl-day smiles please

THE COAL SITUATION is clearing
up and adjustment of the trouble
which has existed since last April
seems to be in a fair way to be settled
and mining of coal be started this
month. The soft coal troubles were
adjusted and bituminus coal has start
ed to reach the consumers-but,i it
will be several weeks before anthra-
cite coal can be produced, or started
enroute for the million homes and in
stitutions dependent upon hard coal
for heat and domestic purposes. With
the miners at work, it should be
possible for limited quantities of coal
to reach the homes of the smaller
towns, as well as supplying the large
cities. 1t now looks very much more
favorable for fuel next winter; but it
will be well to get a supply of wood
ready before the cold weather opens
sufficient to serve all purposes up
to the first of December next.
IF EACH PARENT who has a
child in the public schools will take
time to visit the school where such
child is enrolled and attending the
daily sessions, and devote sufficient
time to observe the condition existing
in the school room, as well as the
method of work carried out in teach
ing the pupils, they will get a real
izing sense of what public school edu-
cation means to their child, as well as
the future of the State. 1t would be an
hour well spent for all concerned and
will bring about better understand
ing as to the needs of the schools. 1t
is comparatively easy to criticise the
action of those who are shaping the
policies of the public school system,
but when you criticise, you must be
able to suggest something better to
supplant the policies carried out in
the management of the schools. Par
ents will learn something for their
own interest by visiting the schools
and now, next week, is the proper
time to start making occasional visits.
Lets go.

will be Saturday, September 10Th
just one week from tomorrow. Just
remember that this is next to the last
opportunity to register for the present
campaign.
Milford chronicle., 1922-09-08

THE COUNTY primaries of the Re
publican party in both Kent and Sus-
sex counties have been set at very
late date in the campaign-that of
Kent being Saturday, September 2Srd,
while the Republicans of Sussex had
to take the last Saturday in Septem-
ber, the 30th, for their primaries. The
people who registered in July and Au-
gust are the only voters entitled to
vote at the primaries-that will make
some difference to those who have
aroused when too late to the fact, that
they are deprived of any voice in the
nominations-but they all had due no
tice of the facts and should have no
complaint over their own failures to
register.
Milford chronicle., 1922-09-08

EACH COUNTY COMMITTEE in
Delaware has reorganized since the
primary election and endorsed the
nominees of the Republican State
ticket. 1t now only remains for the
county primaries to complete the NOM
nations for members of the legisla-
ture and county officers, and then car
ry the questions at issue before the
people, to the polls next November
with strong tickets and honorable
men as the nominees, for the people
to decide. Without question the Re-
publican party will triumphantly car
ry Delaware. Individual spite and
opposition will be sunk and only the
best interests of the party be the mo-
tives to dictate the casting of the bal
lots.

Of trouble which has been simmerins for some
time at Washington. Tho Smoot and Wood bills,
lately introduced, represent the views Of Herbert
D. Brown, efficiency expert, who has been work
ing out = plan for reclassihcation Of employees,
new adjustment Of salaries, and the distribution
Of bureaus according to his ideas Of what will
produce the better service for the government
Senator Sterling Of South Dakota, who has taken
the place Of Senator Smith of Georgia in con-
nection with. the educational department meas
ure, which Is now known as the Sterling -Towner
bill, has announced that he will oppose the Brown
program to the utmost.
The Lehlbach classification measure was
passed by the house some weeks ago, and is now
in committee in the senate. It readjusts salaries
according to duties and not titles; it was worked
out by congressional commission. which broke
with Mr.. Brown, because they felt they could not
adopt his ideas or methods. Senator Sterling is
bitter in his denunciation Of the Brown plan, re-
ferrins to it as "three.shell game" The Lehl-
bach bill has had the active support as far as it
is possible to do, Of men in the government ser.

engendered by this are likely to rolf over the

The Annual Drowninss.

The Aztecs, the Incas and many other an
eient races offered up human sacrifices on the
aitars Of their gods. The custom persists even
among Americans Of the present day. Human
lives are offered up for the diety Of profits, Of
science, Of fashion, and of sport.
Almost it seems as if the lakes and water
courses demand a life each year as their right.
Carter lake has had its first drowning OF the
season; another young man OF Omaha was
drowned Sunday in Codd's lake, near Waterloo.
This should be enough to propitiate the fates
--or, to put it more modernly, to warn others OF
the perils. To risk ones self in deep places
when one can not swim is almost sure to result
disastrously. To overexert ones self BY too vio-
lent and prolonged exercise in the water is to
invite cramps and drowning. An hour is long
enough to stay in any chilling lake.
Good sportsmanship does not call for taking
