Cannon

An enthusiastic Parent-TeacheI
meeting was held at the Cannon
public school on Thursday, Decem-
Der 18th, with a large attendance
Much business was transacted for
the betterment of the school and its
repairs. 1t was decided to follow up
the Face the Facts" program and
DR.. Harry V. Holloway will be in
vited to speak at the next meeting,
which will be Thursday afternoon of
January 29th, 1925. Should that date
be very stormy, then the meeting
will be held on Friday afternoon fol-
lowing, when everybody is cordially
invited to be present.
The Parent-Teacher Association
at this last meeting adopted reso-
luton to make a donation to the
Delaware Colony for the feeble mind
ed, at Stockley, Delaware, and the
time for making the collection set
for Saturday, December goth, when
Mr.. J. ]. Allen, a former president
of this association, with his family
and one of the teachers, Miss Quill
len, performed this duty successful
ly.
The donation formed a fine lot of
canned fruits and vegetables, pre-
serves. jellies, apples, candy, sugar,
oranges and Christmas trimmings;
all of which went to its destination
at the proper time and will help to
make the feeble minded. who are
inmates of the institution supported
by the generosity Of the people Of
Delaware, as we'll as by the State of
Delaware, happier and of greater
pleasure, by this kind action Of
those who contributed to swell the
offerings from the people Of Can
mons Station District.
After the business meeting was
finished a program was rendered in
the form of a play by the upper
grades. There was an address by
Rev. G. F. Harrington, which was
followed by Highway Officer Ingram
in talk on Safety on the High
ways" A recitation by Mrs. Ross
and Miss Jessie Allen followed.
A demonstration lesson in civics
and Government" was then given
by Mrs. Ross, who also acted as Or
ganist for the Christmas music.
At the close a treat, was served
and candy sold in boxes for the pur-
pose of swelling the school treasury.
The people of Cannons are getting
much pleasure from the programs
made and carried out by the Par
ent-Teacher Association. They are
brought into closer association each
with the other and thereby comes the
social benefit, which is now plainly
to be noticed as result of these
public meetings.

DELAWARE'S WAR
RECORD DEFENDED
w. l.. Fox American Legion Post
Protests Statement In Miss Pyle's
History.

In taking exceptions to that pOr-
tiOn of ''The Story of Delaware" as
written by Miss Katherine Pyle and
published serially in the Sunday
Star, which purports to give an ac-
count of the record Of those Della
wareans who served in the World
War, the Walter L. Fox Post, No. 2,
American Legion, has adopted reso-
lutions protesting to the further dis
semination of that portion Of the his
tory.
In one Of the preambles to the
resolutions Miss Pyle's account is
reported as stating Delaware men
made up the entire personnel OF the
Fifty-ninth Pioneer Infantry and
that they did not get to France In
time to go to the front or take part
in the fighting.
One of the resolutions protests
against the further publication or
dissemination of the history and
placing it in the schools Of Della
ware without first correcting the

Accompanying the resolutions is
a letter of information in which it
is stated that although the largest
single contingent was in the Fifty
ninth Pioneer Infantry there were
about ten thousand Delaware men
serving in the army, marine and ma
val branches of the service. The
Fifty-ninth Pioneer Infantry was
made up of New York and New Jer-
sey as well as Delaware men al
though the men from this State pre-
dominated. They were sent to Camp
Mcclellan, Admission, Alabama, and
became part of the Twenty-ninth ci-
vision. They were later transferred
to Camp Dix, where the regiment,
called the Fifty-ninth Pioneer In
fantry was formed. All this caused q
delay in getting these Delaware men
across. Others had gone and were
going. The Fifty-ninth Pioneer In
fantry arrived in France September
Z, 1918, and was engaged on the
front in the Argonne campaign until
the Armistice, the resolutions de-
clare.
