DELAWARE CITY STORE LOOTED
w. U. ReybOld, Is Robbed Second
Time in Fifteen Months

For the second time in about fif-
teen months, the general store Of Will
liam U. Reybold, was broken into
Wednesday night, of last week, or
Thursday morning and merchandise
valued at about $4O0 was stolen. The
place was similarly robbed in Janu-
airy Of last year.
Entrance was gained through a
sEylight, after considerable difficulty
in the removal of an iron grating over
the window. A ladder was used to
get on the roof of the building. Steps
from near the skylight were used to
get down into the store.
About 100 pairs of women's silk
hose, a large quantity of mems hose,
mems underwear, mems dress shirts
and two suit cases were found to be
missing the next morning, after par
tial check. The suit cases were used
evidently to carry off the loot.
A large quantity of merchandise
was left on the floor of the store near
the front part of it, the thieves evi-

the front door Of the store. That they
were forced to leave the place in q
hurry is evident from the fact that
two shot guns were found on the ROOT
Of the building. It is possible that
the thieves were frightened by thu
whistle Of a vessel on the river o.
canal.
Mr.. Reybold discovered boxes scat
tered all over the store as he entered
it shortly before o'clock in thi
morning. He was accompanied b!
Councilman Harry Rose. They mad,

Urges Huge Bond Issue


Generosity of p. S. dupont Who
Urges Huge Bond Issue
Pierre S. dupont, founder and en-
dover of the Service Citizens of Del
aware, will extend the associations
deed of trust from August 27, 1924,
to September, 1927, it was announced
Thursday by DR.. Joseph H. Odell, di-
rector, at the annual meeting of the
Service Citizens in the Hotel dupont,
Wilmington, Thursday. The associa-
ton was scheduled to have disbanded
this year after five years work in
solving school problems in the State
and aiding school districts to obtain
better educational facilities.
According to the directors report
the total amount spent by the Della
ware School Auxiliary and the Serv-
ice Citizens since its organization,
August, 1918 to May, 1924, was 49,
SS4,07545. Of this amount, S1,927,-
600 was spent in the construction of
white schools and $1,O69,OOO.7O for
negro schools. In addition there was
$143, ,436.60 spent for general educa-
tion and $4,000 for the University of
Delaware Press.
P. S. dupont Speaks of Work Needed
During the course of the meeting
Mr.. DUPONT made brief address. He
said the task Of the Service Citizens
for the coming year is to interest the
people of Delaware in solving the
school building problem. AS the Del
aware School Auxiliary is nearing the
end of its resources, he said, it will
be necessary for a State bond issue
in order to complete the work now
being carried on by the Auxiliary.
He suggested that a S6,O00,00O
short-term loan would serve to re-
build all school buildings constructed
forty or more years ago. Then, he
said, a $4,000,0OO loan should be made
to rebuild all schools which date from
forty years ago to the present time,
provided reconstruction is necessary,
However, Mr.. DUPONT emphasized, it
is up to the people of Delaware to
make their desires known to the Legis-
lature. If the next Legislature fails
to act on a school program, he added,
it will not be the fault of the law
makers, but rather the fault of the
people.
81 do not wish to dictate to the
members of the organization" said
Mr.. dupont. 81 want the Service
Citizens to assume the responsibility
of distributing the funds which am
willing the furnish. The Service Citi-
zens should feel responsible for spend
ing every cent. All I want is that the
money is spent for the best cause in
the best way possible"
Summary of Expenditures by DIR. OdelI
The complete summary of expendi-
lures as presented by DR.. Odell is as
