PATHETIC

The girl was ragged, unkempt and
the dark rings around her beautiful
eyes told of weeks of hunger and pri-
walton. Dejectedly she leaned against
the gnarled trunk of the mighty oak
and passed trembling hand across
her brow.
And snowfakes flickered in the
chilly breeze, causing her to SILVER.
Her lips framed a prayer as she
gazed hungrily around.
"Ah!" A cry of joy escaped her
lips as she espied a crust of bread
lying out on the snow-kissed grass.
Eagerly she bounced upon it and
carried it to her trembling lips, and
ravenously devoured it.
Then a voice echoed through the
wood: Fright, Miss Dainty!" and with
a sigh of relief she hurried to her
waiting automobile and drove away
to her mansion.
For she was a cinema star!-Shef-

ment reservation and Colonel Stark,
who was in charge, added that the
conduct of the soldiers on the reser-
walton was admirable.
A trip to the camp last night re-
minded one of the quick and active
work that the soldiers accomplish, for
nearly everything had been cleaned
away where just few hours before
had stood town of tents. This clean
ing up work is being carried on by
fifteen men under Colonel Weller E.
Slower, property disbursing officer.
These men will remain at the camp
until tomorrow when it is hoped that
everything will have been cleaned up
and equipment stored at reservation.
Many persons from Newark attend
ed the camp on Friday of last week
which was Governors Day. There
were several thousand visitors at the
camp that day and the soldiers were
at their BEST
A great number of persons again
went to the camp on Sunday, the last
official day of the camp.
The local company was very for
tunate and all the members returned
in good health. The work of Co. Z
was equal to best and the lads were
in tip-top form at all times.
The trip from the camp back to
Newark was made in special car on
the Pennsylvania Railroad.

Country Club
Drive Still On
A Chance to Get Into Local Club
Without Paying Initiation Fee

You still have a chance to get a
membership card to the Newark Coun.
try Club without paying the initiation
fee. The local club has a drive on for
one hundred new members and as in.
centive to the people of this vicinity
to become members of the club the in
itiation fee has been taken off until
September 1st. This means a big
saving and it is very seldom that a
club of the nature of the country club
makes such an attractive offer.
The local club has not been in ex-
istence long, but in the time that it
has been going it has proven that
there are not any clubs in rural Della
ware that can come up to it and
many Wilmington golf players who
have played over the local links have
praised the Newark club to the
"skies."
Newark's Country Club is already
self-sustaining and the additional
membership drive is being made for
the purpose of enabling the club to
go ahead more rapidly with the plans
that have been outlined for further
development Of the property. Al
ready work has about been completed
on two new tennis courts and it is
expected that two more courts will
follow these. The club owns enough
ground at the present site to enlarge
from a nine-hole course to one of
eighteen holes. This is one improve
ment that the members of the club
will welcome.
There is always something doing
at the club and it is very seldom that
you cannot find someone to play
round with and an excellent profess
sional instructor, Albert Ginther, is
always on hand to help the beginners.
Mr.. Ginther also makes sticks in the
basement of the club.
For the next few Saturdays to come
there are tournaments scheduled to
take place at the club and there will
be many all-year-around activities.
The chance to take advantage of
this offer is open until the end of
this month and any of the following
officers will take your application for

I was surprised and pleased, both at the number and the variety, and also the exceuency of the work. And yet dare say the list was and still is far from complete.
 How true 1t is that we are of. times ignorant of the people living next door.

 Although Mir Gottlieb numbers scores of the younger generation of American writers in his personal ae- warm friends of his. and this may warp his good judgment to a degree in their favor, yet he proudly as- serts that he thinks they are doing finer work in all the groups (except perhaps in poetry)-than their Eng fish contemporaries.

James Branch Cabell as no rival in England and onII Anstole France is his superior. Theodore Dreisser is craftsman and realist and makes Arnold Bennett seem an ordinary newspaper reporter.

POLITICAL METHODS IN PEKING

l From Currents and Characters in China, by Nathaniel Peffer, Tn Asia Magazine.
 A year ago when the seriousness of the famine first became known in Peking, went down into the stricken region. When I retulhed to Peking l made a long report to the Inter national Famine Relief committee. which had just been organized 1 emphasized the need of supplying seed grain immediately. A day or two later Dr. Douglas Gray of the British legation, chairman of the committee, sent for me and asked me to plot out an itinerary for an expe- dition for the distribution of seed grain by airplane and to prepare to accompany such an expedition. The government had in Picking a number of newly bought planes, which it was i thought could be secured for the dis tribution.
 l went home. mapped out an itin- erary, and next morning appeared at the meeting held to organize the ex- petition. Before we sat down, one of the British advisers to the Chinese Aeronautical bureau came and an- nounced that there was nothing to meet about. Chang Tso ling, the ex-bandit governor of Manchuria. had communicated the planes and moved them to Mukden for his own private military use.
 In the loan agreement with the British company that had sold the airplanes it was stipulated that, in compliance with the embargo on the shipment of arms into China they should never be used for military purposes. The British government therefore protested to the Chinese foreign office and demanded the re- turn of the planes. The foreign of- flee acknowledged receipt of the pro- test, but was not foolish or reckless enough to make any demands on Chang. Instead 1t informed the British legation that the government had decided to make Mukden, instead of Peking, the principal airdome and to keep the airplanes there. Thus it kept the letter of the contract, saved it's own face and evaded any chal- lenge to the wrath of the monarch of Mukden.
 In passing 1t may be said that Tsao Kun, one of Chang Tso-lings rival generals, promptly seized a number of airplanes newly arrived at Tient- sin and decided to keep them in Paotingfu for his own use-and the foreign office then announced that henceforth Paotingfu also would be the principal airdome instead of Picking. And the airplanes remained in Mukden and PaStingfu, and the appeals made to both generals on grounds of pity brought back not a machine. All of which illumnes more than the character of one or two generals. It pictures perfectly the character of the government of the Republic of China and points a moral on the precariousness of inter national agreements with that gov ernment. What was done to the air planes could and would be done as easily to consortium projects.

 According to the files of the local corporation court. where the vast majority of the divorce cases in this jurisdiction are brought. the name of Mrs. Baggett appears frequently on affidavits swearing to be compliance with residence and domicile require ments of applicants for divorce. In other words, she has in these cases, sworn that the applicant has resided at her home for the period required by law. She also mas sworn 10 the good character of the applicants while domiciled at her residence. So frequently has her name appeared in such cases that the committee ap- pointed by the local bar association to investigate the divorce situation here, and which has been tabu1ating every case on the divorce records during the past IS months, has deemed it advisable to request Mrs. Baggett to appear at a hearing to be held by the committee next week.
 She admitted that she had made more or less of a speciality of rent ing rooms to persons taking up resi- dence in Alexandria preparatory to filing suit for divorce, but she said she had never sworn to anything but the truth.
 The local divorce evil is attributed by Rev. R. F. Hall pastor of St. Pauls Episcopal church, chiefly to what he terms the low standard of public morals.

 A man Is trimmed by life to fill one of It's million small tasks, and he fills 1t honestly and to tLe best of his abil- ity until age impairs his value to SOC iety. Is he then to be cast aside, 'an empty sack" unable to stand because emptied of all that had sustained it? In "The Empty Sack" Basil King s new book. the story of the Follet family, victims of efficiency" in it's most pernicious form, opens with the discharge of old Josiah Follett from the bank which had paid him s45 a week for intelligent and devoted service.
 The Empty Sack is book which is bound to induce much thinking and no little heart-searching.
