the Times Pageant Editor. concerning
the qualities of the representative In
dianapolis girl who is going to At

Beauty TO me-" Miss Morris writes.
''symbolizes not only facial expression,
but in every sense Of the word it
stands for a fine lovely body and a
splendid mind, for these are the
things that count for true beauty.
ITO me a girl who can play a
square game Of tennis or one who
can swim across the river, with firm.
sure strokes. is q real pal If this
same girl would befriend a homeless,
hungry dog, or II she could find hap.
piness in children's voices, she would
surely be a princess. I have been
looking for just such a girl.
When I see the average girl of to-
day, all clothes and makeup, when 1
watch her drain the wine glass, per
haps smokes, and when I hear her
affected slangy talk-I wonder if this
is what those silent men in Flanders
died for.

glorious thing II the ideal would be

wholesome in body and soul. noble IN
character and face-where fingers a
smile for all mankind
Behold. through this same gray
mist OF the early dawn. we see that
long low street with its pitiful mounds
and its heart-breaking crosses.
Suddenly, on the horizon, we see
the figure OF q woman with out
stretched arms and upon looking closer
we see that flaming red cross. Along
comes the first faint breeze Of the
morning, our vision fades. but the
poppies in Flanders seem to nod and
smile and we know they are glad.
Glad, these honored dead, to have
gone 'smilin' thru that America s
womanhood might live.
Again I see in a mad, dancing
crowd the little painted doll dash to
a table, toss a glass in the air and
cry, Who cares? On with the dance"
Then I see our flag high unfurling in
the breeze and in the midst Of those
beloved Stars and Stripes, see the

YEARS ROAD WORK
ON STATE AID BASIS
County Commission Adopts a
Program of Construction to
be Followed.
DELAY LEWES FERRY ROAD
Will Prove a Handicap to the
Public Using the Ferry This
Summer.

Members of the Sussex County
Highway Improvement Commission
held a meeting, Tuesday, March 22nd
and adopted the following. roads
which will be built next year on a
State aid basis, provided the next ses-
sion of the Legislature makes a suffi
cient appropriation to carry on the
work: Laurel to Maryland line, near
Sharptown, Md; Seaford to Maryland
line via Reliance; Bridgeville to Mary
land line via WoOdenhawk and Scott's
Store; Greenwood to ScOtt's Store.
The commission will view the
routes near Bridgeville and Green
wood for the purpose of ascertaining
which will be the most beneficial and
practical to construct to serve the peO-
pie in the northwestern section of
Sussex county The idea in view is to
connect with the improved highways
of Maryland so that both states will
be benefited by an exchange of busi-'
ness relations which are sure to fol-
low by the linking of the Stale high
ways.
\ The road from HarbesOn to LeWes,
via Five Points, was the only road
way considered at the meeting in the
eastern or central section of the cOun-
ty, and this is the first move for the
completion of the roadway between
Georgetown and Lewes for the bene-
fit of the ferry traffic that is expected
from points in New Jersey when the
boat line is established between Del
aware and New Jersey. While funds
are not available at this time for the
building of the broken link between
Harbeson and Lewes, yet there is ev-
cry reason to believe that if the State
Highway Department will give assur-
ance to the Sussex County Highway
Commission for reimbursement of the
cost of construction that some time
this year additional highway bonds
will be sold and the Sussex County
Highway Improvement Commission
will take it upon themselves to go
ahead with the work. Sussex authOri-
ties stand ready to do the work, but
failure on the part of the last Legis-
lature at the last session to make suf-
fcient appropriations finds the State
funds exhausted. The result is that
nothing can be accomplished in the
way of raising funds until the Legis-
lature convenes' in January of next
year.
With the establishment of the Cape
AIay-Lewes ferry, this summer, the
broken link from HarbesOn to Lewes

THE MERRY TRAVELLERS.
WAS A GREAT SUCCESS

Very seldom has home talent play
met with such great success or so
great a crowd gone home with such
wide spread approval, as that which
packed the Plaza Theatre Friday
night of last week. Beginning rehear-
sails only fortnight ago and being
hampered somewhat by the Annual
Senior Party and the fact that the
big picture "The Queen of Sheba" was
in town, a great credit is due Mrs.
Turner, of the Maxine Turner Pro-
ducing Co., New York, and to those
who performed so splendidly. Very
much credit is due Miss Hoffman, the
music instructor of the Milford public
school, as her playing of the pipe or
gan was an added attraction. Little
Cecil Davis, although only four years
of age, brought down the house with
his singing of "Margie." The other
parts were so well taken that it is
rumored that Milford high school can
soon boast of having stars on Broad
way. The elaborate costumes and the
wonderful lighting effect on the stage
produced beautiful scenes. Although
the seats in the balcony were sold at
