widest fling of their lives. This was
the statement of Miss Jessie Binford,

age. In the old days, Miss Binford
said, the bad women of the cabarets

Unanimous Choice Of The Board Of Edu-
cation Last Tuesday.

School in the class of 1898. Shortly
afterward he went to teaching and
has been at it since that time. But
Mr.. Humphreys has always been in
dustrious and during his vacations
sought earnestly to prepare himself
well for his life's work. He tsok
special courses at Johns Hopkins, the
University of Virginia, and Columbia
University.
The new School Superintendent is
married and has three interesting
children. He is a member of the
Official Board of Whatcoat NJ. E.
Church, and has been Superintendent

years.
In politics Mr.. Humphreys is a
StauHch Democrat, but he does not
believe that politics should enter
into the management of the public
schools, so he can be relied upon to
recognize merit in the appointment
of teachers, and good business prin-
cipleS in forwarding all school inter-
ests. He is well acquainted with the
needs of the Public Schools of Wor-
cester County and the patrons and

that Mr.. McMaster has such an able
and worthy successor.

EDITORIAL

(Mo,nin0 Sun. April 18th. l92O.)
The man who added most to his
reputation at Annapolis was Presi-
dent William !. Norris. of the SEN
ate. When his name was proposed
for that high office The Sun
thought and said that his selection
would be a mistake. The Sun takes
pleasure in admitting that it was
mistaken. President Norris came
as near being an ideal presiding
officer as this State has seen in a
long time. When Senator Metzer-
oft declared on the closing night
that Norris had been the best pre-
siding officer in the history OF the
State" he was not talking conven-
,ionally. He had said the same
thing in private. and he is not only
a very partisan Republican. not
given to praising Democrats. but
a man who has a way OF saying
what he means, whoever it helps
or hurts. II was all the more a
high tribute because Mr.. Metzerott
had seen Speaker Laird preside in
the session of 1916. and had and
has a very high opinion Of his
ability. President Norris added to
his fairness and unrailing patience
and courtesy the capacity of quick
decision and expediting the work.

WIND AND RAIN
DID MUCH DAMAGE
Sections of Worcester Visited by
Terrific Wind, Rain and
Electrical Storm

Snow Hill and vicinity was visited
by severe electric storm accom-
panied by high wind, and heavy
fall of rain, Tuesday afternoon. Big
trees were blown over, limbs were
scattered around town, telephone
poles were blown down and for a half
hour or so the storm ragged furiouSly.
A tree blew over on A. +. Hart
mans barn and wrecked it
K. II. Gillispie's shed stables were
blown over, but none of his stock was
injured.
Lightning struck the barn of + A.
Davis. ut Newark, set it on fire and
the building was burned. Two mules
were in the stables, one of which was
badly burned. Two stacks of fodder
Just placed in the barn were burned
up.
Lightning struck turkey coop
on the farm of Ira Webb, killing the
turkey hen and her brood.
1t seems that the storm did not
extend over the county except giving
all sections a good rain.
On Thursday the heaviest rain in
twenty years fell in this section. Corn
fields, tomato patches, and potato
fields were flooded: much damage re-
sulting to growing crops.

HOG CHOLERA
In WORCESTER

An investigation by the County
Agent ard Hog Cholera Specialist.
DR.. Mclaughlin, of reports Of sick
hogs in the southern part of the coun-
ty revealed the fact that hog cholera
exists on several farms around Cedar
Hall. Every effort has been made to
warn the farmer; Of its existence, and
help is being given them to secure
the services of expert men to admin
lister the anti-hog cholera serum.
While sick hogs have been reported
in other sections of the county, no
authentic cases of cholera have as yet
been discovered.
Let everyone, who knows of sick
hogs, make report to the County
Agents office, so that an investiga-
ton may be made. II is very difficult
for the officials 20 control this disease,
unless the people of the county are
willing to assist by reporting cases
and doing everything in their power
to prevent its spread.
Prompt burying or burning of car
caSSeS VI uetlu hfitIitiiS VIII uO a bicuN
deal to prevent the spread of cholera.
The moving of hogs from one farm
to another may spread the disease.
The allowing of dogs to run from one
farm to another is very often the
means of carrying the germs. The
visiting of the farmer or his help to
neighbors' premises frequently is the
means of carrying infested soil and
filth to or from other farms. At
tention and prompt action on the part
of everyone may be the means of
saving thousands of dollars to the
hog growers of Worcester County, so
let everyone do his part.
incubation with anti-hog cholera
serum is certainly the cheapest insur-
ance that the farmer can have
against this dreaded disease. Ar
Engagements can be made with public
inoculators, or veterinarians to do this
work. Farmers themselves may own
the necessary instruments and secure
serum through the County Agent
from the State Departments, and do
their own vaccination at a minimum
cost.
