The basis of the cooperative organlza-
ton is men. Capital cannot cooperate; pro-
duets cannot cooperate; only men can CO.
operate
This seemingly trite but striking truth
was spoken by the late G. Harold Powell so
loved and honored in this community. AS
expressed in another column, the words are
characteristic of the man. His life. expert
ence and success prove so effectively the Idea
EXPRESSED. Would that we who follow hlm
could learn early the force of his words. 10
dav when organizations are being erected
daily and cooperation is the word of the
hour. let US not forget that Men are the con-
trolling force for success. Cont1lctS OF pro-
fession and mercantilism, capital and labor
civic and social thinker and doer are on
every hand. The Seminary and Shop,
Radical in Thought and Conservative IN Ac-
ton. Community and State, Nations and the
World-all have their champions and are IN
persistent clash for supremacy OF their par
ticularv theory or Ideal. These organizations
renreSenting their own interests cannot CO.
operate. Ideas, theories, professions cannot
work for the common good unless under con-
troll and direction of the human element
Man. Even in Delaware we find these forces
wasting energies. Institutions, organlza-
tions. planned for the public veal, in their
enthusiasm for personal success are prone to
forget the great end to be attained
Here in Newark let us have more OF the
human, more of the man. There's glory
enough for all. Rather than competition for
success of our organization let the human
quality hold sway and cooperate.
"Only men can cooperate" Then let
Manhood dominate our institutions rather
than Institutions, men.
So a little community dinner might be
Just the thing that will set us acquainted.
And when we really know the other fellow,
the world is a mighty fine place.

Clean Ub

"Clean Up" weeks are annual events in
most progressive towns and Newark should
be no exception. The refuse of the winter
season should be disposed of as early as pos
sible and the lawns and back yards cleared of
rubbish. Grounds around our schools,
churches and public plants should be among
the first to set the example.
It is expected that Council will assume the
leadership in the project by making an
nouncement Of dates. With this leadership
and the cooperation of our citizens, Newark
will come into her rightful own.

BUMPER FRUIT CROPS
PREDICTED THIS YEAR

spring frosts. All the energy which
otherwise would have gone into the
fruit has been put into vigorous tree
growth and an unusually heavy pro-
duction Of fruit buds. The peach
trees especially, growers say, seem to
be making up for natures default of
last year.
Continued low temperatures and oc-
casional sleet storms are pleasing
fruit men. who say the longer the
buds are kept dormant the better the
chance of escaping another disastrous
bout with killing frosts. At this date
last year many of the peach trees
were bursting into blossom, prema-
turely developed by warm weather in
January. The buds this year are
still tight There are no signs of
flowing sap, and growers are hopeful
that the blossoming period will be de-
layed until April. Another advant-
age of late blossoming is the pres
ence then of more bees and other in
sects to pollenize the blossoms.
Growers realize that big crop will
be of little benefit unless it can be
proftably sold. AS a result more at
tention is being given to marketing
systems than ever before in the his
tory of the Delaware fruit industry.

Remarks made around some of our street

to our attention again this week. Some

". A. Singles,
Newark, Del,
My dear Warren:
Learning that you are calling a
citizens meeting next Thursday
night, having for its object the organ
ization of a Board of Trade, by means
of this letter, l would like to add my
hearty endorsement to the others,
that | am sure will be made to such
a timely movement, and l am sorry |
cannot meet with you in person.
l have visited a number of cities
and towns in this awakening and
really remarkable state, but none
seem to be without Board of Trade
or Chamber of Commerce or some
such civic body to boost its home at
fractions and commercial possibilities
and that of the commonwealth even.
And talking of boosting we only
know of it as a word in the diction-
ary, but these people down here are
pastmasters in its practical operation,
and while they have much to offer to
home seekers, health and pleasure
seekers and to investors, boosting
plays no small part in the drawing Of
thousands of solid and sane people to
this sunny south land.

He himself did his share in the war.
But, all its horrors Notwithstanding,
may it not have in its wake spirit
ual renascence which win promote
better understanding of Whitman
the world over? His evangel poem
has won new friends and protag-
onists during these harassing years.
The Whitman centenary was cele-
brated in America by a larger assem-
blage than the annual gatherings Of
the Whitman Fellowship had mus
tered; and this celebration took place
Just as Whitman would have wished
it: in the open, on the grounds Of
his birthplace. under the trees in the
shadow Of which he may have loafed
as a boy. on the very grass the mes
sage of which he sent into the world.
Another remarkable tribute to his
memory took place year ago at the
church of St Marks in the Bouwerie.
Quite recently the pageant at the
Neighborhood Playhouse, Whitman's
Salut au Monde with the music by
Griffis. brought his message nearer
to the masses than any gathering of
his disciples. These themselves viii

his totality: not only as Whitman

to an unconditional acceptance of his
work. until a generation or more of
our militant and unblushing young
realists has accustomed them to see
in print what they dare only TO
whisper, and another generation Of

viduh representative OF American
democracy. labor, himself. That such
a personality could not be satisfied
to find expression in the conven-
tional forms is quite natural. AS NJ.
Bazalgette says, Whitman did not
seek art. but spiritual expression,
and remarks:
The need for a barbarian, who
would come to open the new poeti-
cal world with blows of hatchet,
as expressed by Emile Zola, Whit
man had felt so much more deeply,
because he had lived it, SO to
speak, in all his fibers. because he
himself, body and soul, was a sort
of barbarian, a big, new animal,
born of race. milieu. soil. as
If freshly issuing from the crucible
of creation and still incomplete.
Perhaps the most concise sum-
mary of the man Whitman is con-
tanned in these words of his inter
prefer:
We feel at his sight that whole
people has passed through that
form, that a vast country has left
its imprint there.
A chapter is devoted to each of
the three ''greatnesses" which Whit
man set out to exalt: democracy,
love, religion. NJ. Bazalgette would
have us ignore the traditional mean
ings of these terms, would purify
them from the corruption that has
tainted them. He shows that Whit
mans ideal of democracy was no
contradiction of his cult of the ego.
On the contrary, it was to be a de-
mocracy of individual egos, so per-
fected as to form "a race of ath-
letic individualities of robust tenn
permanent and character, muscle, and
soul" He calls the poems of Whit
man a fanatic appeal to the force OF
heroism latent in every human being.
For Whitman was at heart moral
ist. earnestly concerned about the
health anu SlTtfSln dL1u tic lului
greatness of the human race. Ba-
zalgette convincingly shows that
Whitman was not a visionary cher
ishing millennial dream, but an i'm
partial and attentive spectator and
keen observer of life in all its reality.
His experiences among the people,
his intimate acquaintance with rep
resentatives of all classes. had re-
vealed to him the possibilities latent
in that mass which he ever addressed
and glorified, and had inspired him
with his strong faith In all mankind.
III.
Whitman's universal standpoint.
his tendency toward breaking bar
riers, eliminating all segregating
lines, is especially evident In the
chapter on love. His conception of
love was not limited to the love of
man and. woman. Hence It could not

the same terms of passion. Bazal-
gette refers to Charles Louis Phi
lippe for an analogous attitude. and
also quotes Nietzsche TO the same
effect
The chapter on religion is espe-
cially interesting. Whitman's study
of the religions of the world had
made him feel that there could be in
reality only one religion: a religion
not standing aloof from life. nur-
tured on vague legends of the past
and vaguer visions of beyond, but
religion which would be a part of
life. and rooted in the here and now.
In his reverence for every manifes-
tation of nature and life Whitman
revealed his intensely religious ma
ture. Such reverence is in itself a
religion. NJ. Bazalgette does not
mention Ellen Key. but his interpre-
tation of Whitman's conception of re-
ligion strongly suggests what Ellen
Key calls Faith in Life and Of
fers as a substitute for religion.
In the chapter on Whitman's uni
versatility his subtle interpreter dwells
upon the fact, painful TO every
American, that the America which
Whitman exalted is not the America
of to-day. Nor was it that of yester-
day. For he shows how mercilessly
Whitman lashed features and figures
of American life that disgTaced the
ideal he cherished Whitman glcri-
fled in America: not so much the
country as such as the country best
fitted to realize his ideals. He saw
in it the symbol of a new generation
which began TO assert itself all over
the world. Bazalgette refers to the
triumphant circumnavigation OF the
globe by Leaves of Grass, but admits
that the book has not yet reached the
masses which the poet addressed. He
regrets that even in America they
seem to know only 20 Captain, My
Captain" But NJ. Bazalgette is psy-
chologist enough to know that this
piece for anthologies" has been the
gate which unlocked the treasures of
the Leaves of Grass to many a read
er. and viii continue to help the
masses TO understand other phases
of the poet. The patriot is a type
more readily understood than the
cosmopolite, and the universally of
Whitman's genius is too bewildering
to find sympathetic response in the
great crowd. forced to walk a narrow
path of daily duties, absorbed in fits

needs of material existence.
