Royalty

monarchs in the world may be none too secure. the
royal princesseG Of today more fortunate than
Their mothers.
For the people of lands ruled by royalty seem to
have forgotten completely the Old theory that Il
princess should marry for diplomacy and not for
love
Possibly the war with its infusion Of democratic
ideas into Europe is to blame, but Italy, for in
stance, seems far more pleased that Princess Ma
fada married man she loved. instead of a future
king Of state that she didn't love.
Even almost nsurmOuntable religious barriers
were overcome. True love to be democratic

CHICKEN OR SQUAD IDEAL
FOOD WHEN ILL
| SAYS EGGS ARE
| CONCENTRATED FOOD

CONCEN lNAlED fOOD
You should know that eggs are
concentrated food; that the average
egg contains about 80 calories of
other values.
Whether eggs are eaten raw,
poached. boiled for long time, soft
boiled, or scrambled, they are. it
would appear. completely digested.
Whipped raw eggs, such as are used
in milkshakes and liquid diets, are
digested by the stomach in less than
half the time required to digest
fried or hard-boled egg.
Because they are heavy nitro
genous food, eggs should be eaten
sparingly.
The yolks of eggs beaten up with
orange juice may be given to those
who arc anemic or emaciated.
Large amounts of egg tax the
liver with too much nitrogen.
WHEN EGGS
ARE FRESH
Fresh eggs direct from the hen
merry are dull. not shiny.
When an egg is stale evaporation
has taken place.
Some of the water in its compost
ton has passed through the porous
smell ana air mas TAKEN us PAdte.
Stale eggs are, therefore. lighter
than fresh eggs. Test your eggs
first by putting them in deep pan
Of water.
This water test will tell you three
things.
First, if the eggs are fresh their
weight will cause them to sink.
Second, if the eggs are stale they
| will slant away from the bottom Of
the pan. or will even stand on end:
Third, if the eggs are bad they will
float.

It is, Of course, no news to US
Americans that we are the center OF
the world.
We have always been the center.
In fact, the home town of each Of
US has always been the center Of
the country and of the world, and
each one individually has been the
center Of that town.
Human nature is that way.
But, getting up on the mountain
top and surveying the world i'm
personally, is an exceedingly new
thing.
Ten years ago, Europe was as
little concerned with us as we with
Europe. The history Of our world
had taken place mostly in Europe,
and the center of most things was
still there.
We were a great. new, crude peo-
pie, interesting in our sheer bigness
and in our childish pride in it. The
certain condescension in foreign
ers" still applied to US. and some Of
US still had inferiority complex
enough to accept it.
Not now We may be unpopular
and misunderstood but we are new
err ignored.
What we do or think about things
is more considered than what any
one else does. We have become the
financial and industrial center Of the
world, and are potentially its chief
political and military factor.
If we are idealistic. as we were
during and Immediately following
the war, the whole world rises to
our inspiration.
If we suffer sordid reaction, as
we are doing. so does the world.
If we will wear Paris fashions
they are the worlds style. If we
refuse. Paris changes them. No.
body likes us-great success is never
loved-but everybody reckons will
us.
1t is new experience, to be thus
taken at what had always been oul
own valuation.
We are the center of things ir
time, as we'll as in space and in i'm
portance. That, too, is always hu
man nature.
! Time consists of past. present ant
future, and it's center is whatever
| instant we happen to be living.
But. just to be more self-centered
consider some of the reasons VIII!
| we will be also center of attention
a thousand years from now.
Life became human with two in
ventions-fire and stone tools. Their
| for countless ages man roamed thu
world with no change beyond Sigh
| improvements in those tools and thu
things made with them.
Then came a few thousand year.
of bronze and few hundred of iron
Then one more major invention
the alphabet, and intellectual ant
| social progress began.
Several thousands of years of up!
and downs, and finally two more
! major inventions-gunpowder ant
the printing press.
Then. for the first time. the worlt
| speeded up. And then the steam
engine. the railroad. the telegraph
the telephone. electric light an,
motor. the bicycle. the automobile
the airplane, and the radio.
A long list. but nearly all of Il
with it's social and intellectual con
sequences, almost in the last secont
| of the last minute of the last houl
! of mans day on earth.
Whatever may happen in the flu
ture, to transform the external or thu
internal life of man, he will have tt

WIND AND RAIN WITH TORNADO
FURY VISITS SMYRNA VICINITY
HALF THE ROOF OF EDWARD
ENNIS HOME IS BLOWN OFF
FINE Trees at Bannister Hall and Bel
mont Hall Torn DOwn-Damage
Severe in All Parts of State

Saturday and Sunday were rainy
days in Smyrna and when the wind
shifted near noon on Sunday il
brought a gale that was near a tor
nadO as one would want to witness.
The wind at times reached a velocity
of upwards of 60 miles an hour and
with the driving rain carried before
1t there was veritable deluge. Limbs
were blown from trees in Smyrna and
foliage was tripped. The worst dam
age done was on the J. H. Hoffecker
farm in the Alley, west of Clayton,
tenanted by Edward J. Ennis. The
roof of the residence was half torn off
and the chimney was cut away. The
wind also completely collapsed the
COW shed and carriage house. A limb
OF tree fell on a hog and killed it.
At Bannister Hall Poultry Farm, the
residence of w. G. Anthony, several
fine trees on his lawn were twisted
off, tables and chairs were picked off
the porch and carried away; the roof
of shed blown off, the electric line
into the residence put out of commits
sion and a child's automobile was
picked up and carried 100 feet away
into a potato patch. At Belmont Hail
eight or ten fine shade trees were
torn down, strewing the pathway and
drive so that it was necessary to chop
the trees away in order for the fam
lily to get out. Telephone poles and
electric light lines in several out of
town places were blown down. The
deluge Of rain filled the streams and
sides Of the road with considerable
water and more or less damage was
done. Uu country between Odessa
and St. Georges, much rain fell and
the wind did considerable damage.
The drawbridge at St. Georges was
damaged by a barge being blownsinto

pairs were made. In virtually every
section Of Delaware damage was re-
ported and along the Atlantic coast

vessels were forced to seek port shell

stiff wind that was almost impassable
At Lewes harbor five tugs anchored
for safety. In other sections of the
state trees were uprooted, damage

damage done. Dover and Milford suf-

storm was of unusual proportions.

MASKED CARNIVAL AT DOVER
Big Celebration at New Dover Opera
House, Halloween Eve, October 30

House, Halloween Eve, October 30
From the moment the doors of the
New Dover Opera House are opened
to the public Friday evening, October
Both, until they close near the
witches hour" of midnight. there
will be bushels of fun in store for all
who attend the theatre to see the big
Halloween parade and contest which
will be held on the big stage. All is
in readiness for the event, and the
scores of entries that have been re-
ceived by Manager George MSchwartz
indicate that it is going to be one of
the most successful affairs of the kind
that has ever been held in the State
Capital. The hearty cooperation of
the Dover merchants and business
men who have contributed prizes for
the occasion has been a material help
to the management of the theatre in
endeavOring to give to the Dover pub
lie an entertainment which they will
remember for days to come. There
will be beautiful costumes, unique cos
tunes, funny costumes and highly
original ones, all scrambled together
in a riot of color and startling effects.
1t will be a sight worth going long
distance to view, and combined with
the fact that Manager Schwartz will
also present a special motion picture
feature and vaudeville, it is a GER
tainty that all present will be royalty
entertained. In addition to the mas
querade parade and the special motion
pictures and vaudeville, dancing con-
tests will be staged and other games
appropriate to the Halloween season
are on the program. The merchants
and Dover newspapers have contribu-
ted nearly $3.50 in prizes, which will
make the contests we'll worth while.
