CHANGE IN SCHEDULE
OF CLASSES AT NAVY
POST GRADUATE SCHOOL

Changes have been made in the
schedule of postgraduate instruction
of young officers at the Naval Acad-
envy. Hereafter one class will assem-
BILE in June and the other in Septem-
Der and no classes will be assembled
IN December.
This policy has been adopted TO per-
nit instructors at the postgraduate
school to. have leave of absence in
the summer.
Only such junior officers as have
had at least five years of sea serv-
ice, instead Of four years as hereto
fore, will be selected for the post
graduate courses. Accordingly, men,
bers of Naval Academy classes grad
uated since that of 1917 will not be
eligible for postgraduate instruction,
and only such members of 1917 class
as are selected for that instruction
will be ordered ashore this year, and
the remainder of the class will con-
tinue at sea for another year, except
under special circumstances.
The class assembled for POSTCARD
uate instruction this month will be
composed of engineering students.
and the September class of students
in ordnance, engineering and naval
construction. Not more than so Off
GERS will be selected for these classes.

LANDS OF u. S. NEED
MORE FERTILIZER

The United States must do more fer
tilizing if our agriculture is to be
maintained and increased. says Floyd
w Parsons in World Work. Prior
to the war. Germany was using ISIS
pounds Of fertilizer on each acre.
Grea; Britain was using 162 pounds
per acre. but in the United States,
only about 40 pounds of fertilizer IS
used for each acre of cultivated land.
In 1913 a survey was made of the
tight countries producing the largest
quantities of potatoes per acre ana
the United States stood the last on the
list. Belgium produced 500 bushels
an acre while the United States pro
duced only 80 bushels an acre. Prac
tically the same is true of our other
crops. All such facts go to prove that
there is urgent need here in America
for a greater supply of nitrogen. II
we tackle the problem in the right
way. we can get this nitrogen by sim
ply stopping the burning of raw coal
In taking such a step we will not ONLY
deal a hard blow at our hish-cost-of
living problem, but we will have
taken the longest possible step toward
the solution of shameful coal waste
which for years has cast doubt on our
boasted high degree of national intel
lipence

For two seasons in succession the
pea crop grown in the lower section
of Delaware, has been a failure. Few
growers in the vicinity of Milford or
SeafOrd, where the greatest canning
establishments are located, have re-
ceived sufficient to repay them for the
seed peas sOwn, while the fertilizer
and labor of planting and harvest is
an entire loss. The only thing that
can possibly be reclaimed is the fer
tilizer used on the crop. By planting
the same land in tomatoes or other
crops, the effect of the fertilizer can
in part be reclaimed. This is unsat-
isfactOry results for the farmers-but
all farmers are optimistic and are
ready to take other chances to retrieve
the failures of any part of their farm
ing activities. Taken on the basis of
five year period, the pea crop has
made satisfactory returns to growers;
this is one of the off years.

more worthy of this distinction.
"Mr. duPont's association with the
development of education in Delaware
in all its stages from the public
schools to the University of Delaware
has attracted widespread attention.
On that fact alone he deserved this
honorary degree, a recognition from
another state of what has been done
in a sister commonwealth. But added
to this were, of course, Mr.. duPOnt's
other distinctions, his success as a cap
tain of industry.
"Mr. dupont has given of both his
time and his financial means to edu-
catiOnal purposes, and this double gift
is most extraordinary. Men some
times give of their money, and that,
indeed, is highly commendable, but
add service to this such as Mr.. dupont
gave as a member of the State Board
of Education and in making addresses
throughout the State, we have an
unusual combination.
"Mr. dupont is now bound more
closely than ever to the cause of edu-
cation due to this recognition of his
merits by a conservative college Of
high standing which has stuck pretty
closely to the time-honored principles
and theories of a higher education.
At the same time the bestowal of the
degree upon Mr.. dupont is another
evidence of the general tendency
among colleges and universities 70
award this degree to men who have
achieved success in vocationS other
than the learned professions"

for a long time. The Institute of
Public Service of New York has been
making a survey which discloses the
fact that one-third of the 10000 stu
dents expected to be graduated from
TIE higher institutions of learning will
take up teaching. The majority of
those who will do so are women, there
being 1900 more women than men to
become teachers.
"De Pauw University, in Indiana,
leads the list, for 81 per cent or 7S
of the 153 students in the graduating
class will become professional teach
ers. At Smith College for Women,
23O of the SOC will be teachers, and 40
of the lis at Radcliffe will teach.
considering the institutions the
percentages are high at the Univer-
sity of Michigan, Yale and Cornell.
At Michigan the percentage of teach
ers is %, or 227 of the so who will
be graduated. Cornell has 20 per cent
and Yale 21 per cent or 100 of the
'83 to graduate. Princeton has only
10 per cent or As of the 462.
"Of the best known of the smaller
colleges, where there is not co-educa-
tiOn, Dartmouth has 10 per cent, or 25
of the $50; BowdOin 19 per cent, or 13
of the 20 to graduate; Lafayette 7 per
cent, or % of the 1876 to graduate, and
Williams only per cent, or 2 of the
graduating class of 70.
However, on the whole the friends
of education should be much encourag-
ed by these reports. Probably in some
institutions the percentage to engage
in teaching is higher than that of
those going into any other vocation.
! "The indications are that the salar-
les of teachers will stadily become bet
ter and better. More interest is now
manifested in education than ever be-
fore, school systems are being i'm
proved, Delaware being a shining ex-
ample of that fact, and the outlook in
every direction is most promising.
Hence the drift toward teaching. The
showing outlined above is indeed truly
remarkable"

The volstead act is not one hundred
per cent effective. All must admit
that, says The Milford Chronicle.
Neither is the law against burglary
and other crimes. The Federal gov
eminent is not dealing with prohibi-
ton. 1t is dealing with the phen-
Omena of law-breaking. The Vol
stead act is part of the Federal law.
The question is, shall the constitu-
tional law of the land be upheld ?
Strict observance and enforcement of
the Nolstead act would mean nation
wide prohibition in truth. The great
est obstacle in the way of a full en-
fOrcement of the act, is that it has to
deal with long-established personal
habit. Because this law is considered
an interference with personal right,
by so many persons, they fail to per
form their full duty as citizens in moi
reporting to the authorities such evi
dence of illicit liquor manufacturing
/ and sale as comes to their attention
whereas they would unhesitatingl!
report evidence of burglary and othe
( serious crimes. If we believe in the
/ observance and enforcement of consti
tutional law, then we should no
hesitate to notify the authorities wheI
violations of the Federal prohibition
enforcement act are noted

The announcement that Mrs. AL
fred l. dupont has renewed her gifts
to the Delaware High Schools Home
Economics Department for the next

warm commentator from friends of
education throughout the State. Mrs.

for efficient work along home-making
lines. 1t is understood the prizes will
be continued at least three years.
The contests for these prizes which
closed little over a week ago re-
vealed not only great interest by the
girls themselves in striving for pre-
eminence along these lines, but also
the vital character of the work in the

truth, that our girls are losing their
Capacity for home making, because of
their inexperience in tho housekeep-
