MAN BURIED WITHOUT
NOTICE TO HIS FRIENDS
Well Known Milford Negro Died at
Kent County AImshOuse.

John Curry, colOred, of Milford,
died at the Kent County Almshouse
seven days after being admitted to
that supposed refuge for the poor
and afflicted. He at one time was
an inmate of the State Hospital at
Farnhurst, but responded to treat
ment and got in his right mental
condition; so he was returned to
his relatives in Milford to care for.
Several months later, he became
helpless so far as taking care of
himself was concerned His son
and relatives were unable to sup
port him and their own families, so
the trustees of the poor for the
Tenth Representative District, sign
ed a commitment and sent him to
the County Almshouse near Wyo-
ming, in Kent County. John Curry
was the Ostler and coachman for
General A. T. A. Torbert, and for
years after the Generals death John
cared for the horses and stables of
Mrs. Torbert until she passed on.
Since then he resided in Milford
on a small legacy and his personal
efforts in caring for yards and hedg-
es for several people in Milford, un-
til he finally was incapacitated.
The surprising part of the case,
is that shown by the Superinten-
dent of the County Almshouse. His |
death was not reported to any of |
his family, or any friends and the |
body was buried by the county with
out any further mention of his |
death. The fact became known,
when several friends last Sunday |
visited the Almshouse and then
were told that John Curry had died
about seven days after he was ad-
mitted to the institution and had
been buried several months. Ex-
Governor Pennewill and Chief JUS
ice Pennewill and others who were
next of kin of the late Mrs. Mary
IOrbert knew the old man well. He
las a son living in Milford and the
Trustee of the Milford District of
his County institution lives near
no notice was given,
80 that the body could have been
claimed for interment. This kind
If management of a public institu-
ion for the relief of the poor and
ndigent, certainly deserves a very
adicaI reform. If there are ex-
'lanations to clear up this report,
hey should be made for the sake
# the Superintendent as well as the
Board of Trustees.

TURKEYS COMMENCE
TO MOVE TO MARKETS
The Price Will Probably Range
About The Same. As That Of
Last Year.

The killing, dressing, packing and
shipping of turkeys will be one of
the very important industries on
some of the farms in Delaware from
now until Thanksgiving. Many
farmers prefer to market their tur-
keys for Thanksgiving, and others
prefer to wait for the Christmas
market; however, from present in
dications, there will be about the
usual amount shipped from this
state for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Various reports reaching the Bur-
eau of Markets indicate that, in
some sections, the turkey produc-
tion is larger than last year, while
in others it is smaller. There is no
doubt that the dry spring and sum-
mer has helped considerably in the
raising of turkeys, and there has
not been such losses in the flocks
as occurred last year; however,
some of the farmers who lost the
Greater portion of their flocks last
year did not undertake to raise any
This year, and it. is believed that
there is, for market, about the same
quantity in this.' state this season
as there was last season..
Up to this time, there have been
very few purchases made, and not
enough turkeys sold to establish
market price; however, the buying
will become active during next week
and the farmers hope that they will
be able to realize good price for
their turkeys this year. During last
season, the price ranged from 4Oc

SCHOOL CHILDREN JOIN
In HEALTH CRUSADE
Milford Pupils Among Those First
Chosen For The Work

Public school children of Har-
ringtOn, Laurel, Seaford and Milford,
in the grades, started this week as
members of the Health Crusade,
which the. Delaware Anti-Tuberculo-
sis Society is directing in it's fight

Mrs. Edna Palmer Upton in charge
of the work, will visit these special
school districts, confer with the
teachers, distribute supplies and ex-
plain any of the details of the cru
sade in which thousands of Delaware
children are enrolling.
The twelve-week test which the
children are asked to make this year
in order to become enrolled in what
is known as the Squire" degree,
calls for each boy and girl to COM
ply with number of requirements
which tend towards making health
ier children and happier homes.
The daily chores" as they are
styled, call upon the children to
wash their hands before each meal,
to brush the teeth thoroughly, to
keep fingers and pencils out of
mouth and nose, to carry clean
handkerchief, to drink three glasses
of water each day, but no tea or
coffee, to eat only wholesome foods,
vegetables and fruit, to
drink, slowly, two glasses of milk,
to play outdoors or else with the
open for a half hour, to
sleep at least II hours with the
windows open, and to take a bath |
twice a week and put on clean un-
1erwear once a week.
Mrs. Upton hopes within a few
weeks to have reached all grade
schools in the state, through the su-
pervisors, with whom she is, work
ng. These officials have CO. operat-
I'd splendidly so far and are inter
,sted in having the children under
