But comparatively few Whining
tonians have seen that strange freak
Of nature, the sand dunes near Hen
lopen light, mile or two from Re-
hoboth Beach. The approach TO this
peculiar spot which through the
mutability Of the elements makes
every aspect different is a hardship,
as the seeker after the uusual must
mako his or her way through deep
and shifting sands. once there, the
endeavor Is amply repaid, for here,
nature puts a premium on reality.
The heavy gales OF the region
have piled the dazzling sands that
characterize that coast into fantastic
pillows and valleys, into hills that
are so high that the tree-tops. are
covered, which, here and there pro
trude and appear to be but bushes
growing on the surface. Somehow,
nature always springs to the surface.
She is, as a rule, fond OF colors. But
here, on pleasant days, there is
nothing but a cleaning whiteness
and an aioofness that requires but
little fancy TO transpose oneself to
Saharian waste.
Tho Menhaden fishermen OF
Lewes are hoping for busy season
this summer because that industry
has a material effect on the prosper
ity of the town. Many residents de-
pend on the activities of the bust
ness in adjacent waters which is de-
pendent upon the run of this species
Of the piscatorial family.
Chance looms largely as a factor
in the prosperity OF a business at
this nature. A boat may cruise the
seas in which menhaden are found,
unfortunately, because luck lies on
chance and mahaden are billiards
and keep 10 deep sea depths.
When a school Is sighted method
zeal preparations are completed.
First, a pointer-boat Is lowered and
Is directed 10 a point in close prox-
unity by the lookout. Then follows
the seine boats which take up the
strategic stations defined by the
pointer crew. The seine boats carry
the net, which is a fifty-fifty propo-
eition Of about a ton burden to each
boat which must be lowered to en-
velope and net the catch that might
attain the contents of a thousand
barrels. This accomplished. the
trap Is closed by the adjustment Of
ropes. This Is an exceedingly pains
taking and careful operation. as the
soines represent an investment OF
many hundred Of dollars each, and

cessful. many thousand pounds OF

der heavy strain.
II is then that the steamer closes
in and through the aid OF power
winches, transfers the dead weight
OF the catch aboard.
When its holds are filed. the boat
proceeds to one of the fishery
wharves at Lewes where a conveyor
removes the catch TO cooking watts
and powerful hydraulic presses |
which extracts the oil and treats
the residue into one Of the valuable
bases Of agricultural fertilizer.

AS LINCOLN SPOKE IN 'e5,
so HIS SPIRIT SPEAKS TODAY.

From the New York Herald.
The closing words of Lincoln's
second inaugural address were in
part dedication OF the American
| people to the task of repairing the
damage wrought by four years Of
, civil war and to the even greater
task of laying the foundations of a
lasting peace. Those words applied
then to the specific situation in
which the United States found itself
and they apply today Unequal meas
ure TO all the world in the chaotic
situation in which It finds itself;
with malice toward none,
with charity for all, with firm
ness in the right, as God gives
us 10 see the right. let us strive
on to finish the work we are in,
to bind up the nations wounds,
to care for him who shall have
borne the battle and for his
widow and his orphan. to do all
which may achieve and cherish
a just and lasting peace among
ourselves, and with all nations"
There could be no better dedica-
ton OF the United States today to
the work imposed upon II by the
world war. There could be no better
dedication OF the nations that were
engaged with the United States in
that great war.
The problems OF reconstruction
Lincoln saw before him as the civil
war ended were comparable in their
nature to those that in increasing
rather than in diminishing degree
beset Europe today. But the spirit
in which Lincoln called on Ameri-
cans TO approach them was large
enough TO meet any Issue that con-
fronts the torn and exhausted world
We know.
II there is anything which can do
more to keep back the day OF re-
newed security and peace than mall
ice among nations the world has
yet 20 learn what It IL. II there is
anything that can do more 20 ad-
vance that dsy than the spirit OF
charity among men and among ma
tons It IS q remedy the world has
yet TO discover. And whatever the
disappointments and disillusions
that have so far blocked the COM
ing OF that day there IS nothing
more certain than that we must
strive on 70 finish the work we are
in.
Malice has worked evil in Europe
since the war, and malice engenders
malice. Only through charity and
forbearance and the determination
to see the right and do It can Eu-
rope be made whole and sound.
Without the spirit OF Lincoin's i'm
mortal message to sustain it the re-
suit OF reconstruction cannot be en-
during.
