DELAWARE CLUB GIRLS
WIN RARE HONORS

That the boys and girls club work
of Delaware as conducted by the Jun
ior Extension Department of the Uni
versity of Delaware has attracted ma
tion-wide attention is again demon
strated with the appointment of two
Delaware club girls to represent the
Eastern States at the second national
boys and girls congress at Chicago
next week. The girls receiving this
honor are Kathaleen Wright and EliZ-
abeth, 16 years old, both of the
BridgeVille Clothing Club. Their ex-
penses will be paid by the Union Stock
Yards and Transit Company.
Their selection came as a surprise
to the girls and also to the leaders
who had trained them. A. ]. Brundage,
manager of the Eastern States Expo
sition at Springfield, Mass, where the
girls demonstrated their work last
summer, was asked to name the two
clothing club girls who would best
represent the East at the Congress
and he selected Kathaleen and Eliza
beth.
These two girls won first prize hon
ors for their judging and dyeing dem
onstration at the Kent-Sussex Fair,
the Delaware State Fair and the Eas-
tern States Exposition last summer.
In these contests they gave dyeing
demonstrations in which they illus
trated the use of dye materials in util-
izing old garments and leftover bits Of
cloth for various practical purposes.
They were trained by Miss Kathryn
E. Woods, State home demonstration
leader, and Miss Anne B. Moore, coun-
ty club agent for Sussex county.
Delaware will also have a third
clothing club girl at the national club
congress. Tabitha G. Melvin, of Fred
erica, was awarded the free trip offer
ed by Montgomery & Ward for the
most outstanding club girl in the
State. She was selected on the basis
of quality and quantity of work done
in her clothing project.

HOLDERS OF WAR SAY.
ING STAMPS INTERESTED

Beginning December 1, 1923, al
post offices accept 1919 War Savings
Stamps due on January 1, 1924, fol
payment on that date; or, they will
exchange these stamps for a new is
sue of Treasury Savings Certificates
dated January 1, 1924, according to
the advices received from George E.
Lloyd, savings director of the third
Federal Reserve District.
In order to avoid the rush at the
last moment, it is urged that the hold
ers of 1919 stamps present them for
redemption or exchange as early as
possible. Checks for 1919 stamps pre-
scented for cash before the first of the
year will be mailed by the Federal
Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, to the
owners about January 1.
New certificates, however, will be
issued in exchange, wherever possible,
Immediately upon presentation Of the
1919 War Savings Stamps. A holder of
500 in 1919 War Savings Stamps, for
example, can now get $125 in new
Treasury Savings Certificates; for
$500 in 1919 stamps a holder can now
get $625 in new certificates; and for
$1,000 in 1919 stamps a holder can
now get $3.50 in new certificates.
The new certificates are issued in
denominations of $25, 500 and ST.
900 (maturity value), and sold at the
prices of 500 for a $25 certificate, $50
for a 500 certificate, and $500 for a
$1,000 certificate. This new offering, it
is stated, will afford the holders Of the
maturing securities an opportunity to
continue their investment in an at
tractive government security, and
should further encourage thrift
small investors.

LOWER EXPRESS RATES
ON ALL FOOD STUFFS

New basis for the application of in
terstate express rates was laid down
on Monday by the Interstate Com
merce Commission in a decision which
refused the American Railway Ex-
press Company the right to make
general increases which it asked. Ex-
press companies were ordered to es-
tablish new schedules on or before
February 81, next, incorporating the
changes.
Present interstate express rates ap-
piled to food articles OF near4y all
kinds, the commission held, are too
high and should be reduced by
amounts ranging from 10 to IL per
cent. The companies were required to
make the reductions by installing
charges which will equal those in eff
feet on October IL, 1920, when in
creases to the present levels were
made.
In outlining the principles to gov
ern the general revision the commits
sion pointed out that rates are now
built up on the basis of five zones, one
for the northeastern section of the
country, one for the southeast, one for
4440olo0APP4 -lA4SSOuIl l6IIlLOIyg OuS LOI
the Rocky Mountain area, and one for
the Pacific coast. There are differ
ences in the factors of rates between
each zone, and the commission decid-
ed that these result in too great a
discrepancy. Accordingly a three-zone
system was ordered into effect: One
zone to take in generally the north
eastern see ion of the United States;
the second the southeast and the third
to include all of the territory west Of
the Mississippi river.
In the recOnstructions to be made |
on the basis of zones, the commission !
held that the express carriers might
include a haulage factor charge of 25
cents per 100 pounds for the first so !
miles in the northeastern section; a
factor Of 27.5 cents for the first so
miles in the southeastern or second
zone, and 80 cents for the same dis
lance in the third zone.
The general arrangement now fol-
Owed of blocking out the country in
50-mile squares for the purpose Of
king express charges was said to be
for the amended zone ar
'angement, and the express compan-
es were ordered to work out rate
schedules for later submission to the
