that the American Legion dashed

oyster FLEET
STARTS longing
Season Opens, But Supplies
Not Expected Until Next
Week
CROP is DECLARED
LARGE AND LUSCIOUS

The oyster season opened officially
today, but It is considered unlikely
that supplies Of bivalves will be re-
ceived in Wilmington markets be-
fore Monday, according to dealers.
No oyster boats had arrived at the
municipal wharf. Front and Church
streets, up to 2 o'clock this after
noon, and none is expected for sew
eral days. Last season a schooner
arrived on September 2. A combina-
ton of Sunday and Labor Day. how
ever, this year leads dealers 10 the
belief that shippers will hold of
their arrival until Tuesday.
Dispatches from Delaware Bay
and Maurice river cove points state
that the oyster fleet moved at mid
night to the beds. dropped their
dredges and nets and began BUSH
ness.
Samples from the beds indicate to
the oyster planters a bumper crop.
The slight drop in the mercury ac-
cording TO the oyster sharps. has
improved TO a considerable degree
the flavor Of the bivalves.
The majority OF the oysters In the
Maurice river cove were planted
three years ago. and both shippers
and planter agree their size and
quality will be par excellence.
The first oyster boat 10 arrive at
the Municipal wharf last year was
the Idelia, owned by G. II. Woodall.
He brought a cargo Of 3s bushels,
valued at s57. shipped from Leipsic,
Delaware.
During the season. from Septem-
Der !, 1921, 10 June 30. 1922, 127
boats. loaded with oysters, arrived
at the Municipal wharf. as follows:

TIE AMERICAN RACE.

DR.. Ales Hrdlicka, of the Smithson-
ian institution, addressing a body of sci
entists recently, called the American
race the infant of the human family.
Physically there is yet no specifically de
fined American type. There. are many
types. each representing the European
racial group from which it came.
Mentally, however, there is an Amer
lean race, as clearly marked to the
psychologist as the Scandinavian or
Greek or Chinese would be to the eth
nologiSt.
The American possesses an unmistak-
able alertness, n nervous energy, an at
mosphere of intelligence and independ-
ence which are peculiarly his own.
If there is anyone inclined to feel
badly because there are no physical
race characteristics, he should cheer up.
There is more cause for pride in these
mental and spiritual qualities which
speak so plainly of the nations achieve
ments, ideals and opportunities.
