Wednesday morning. but 1t is for
the purpose of considering the case
of the Wilmington Ice Company.

Handy when asked when the board
will consider the garbage situation,

gust IS. when a regular meeting OF

No change has been made in the
contract requiring the collection of
garbage three times a week at this
season. and numerous complaints in
writing to the Board of Health de-
clare that in many places not over
one collection week is being made.
While the meeting of the Board
of Health on Wednesday is a spe-
cial meeting, it is known that a
delegation of women will call on the
Board at that time and insist that
something be done, as the accumu-
lation of garbage at this season of
the year is a menace to the health
of the city.
Owing to the failure of the col
lectors to remove garbage in many
parts of the city. garbage is being
wrapped and placed with the
ashes. Up until this time the
Street Department has made
no complaint, but If the prac-
tice becomes general they will be
compelled to protest as it is increas-
ing the cost of their department,
and while they have no desire to
en- barnass the contractor for the re-

FOR new SCHOOL

a new school building, approved on
Saturday by the voters of the Clay
mont special district. 500 to 10. is
expected to be made as soon as pos
sible by the Claymont Board Of
Education so that work on the new
structure may be commenced with
least delay Plans for the building
already have been prepared.
The Claymont School Board has
a site of IA acres for the proposed
new school and the amount
derived from the sale of the bonds
will be used entirely for the build
ing and equipment. There are now
400 pupils in the district. and the
indications are the number will be
materially increased within the next
year. Forty-seven pupils have been
sent from the district to the Will
mington High School With the cree
ton of the new school the district
will provide tuition for these and
save the expense of their transport
tation.
The bond issue, It is said. will
cause an increase of the tax rate of
As cents, which, added to the pres
ent rate of 25 cents. will make a to-
tai school tax of 20 cents. It was
chiefly upon this ground that oppo-
stion to the bond issue developed
