DELAWARE LEGION
ELECTS SYLVESTER

Delaware is nautical by the neces-
sity Of things. With its river and its
bay and the ocean, one can easily i'm
agine the entirety of its narrow strip
of territory as being thoroughly sat
urated with the influence of the sea.
Neptune, should he be met walking
upon the beach, would probably be
recognized there as quickly as Uncle
Sam. Or perhaps Uncle Sam, to the
Delawarean's mind, is sort of trident
bearing sea-god himself
1t is the most natural thing in the
world, then, that American Legion
naires of this sea-dominated state
should turn to the navy and select a
COB for their head for 1925-1926. Earl
Sylvester of Harrington is the man
upon whom their choice fell.
Mr.. Sylvester enlisted in the United
States navy on November IA, 1917, as

Papers Run at Loss

Figures recently published show
that about so per cent of the news
papers in Rumania operate at a loss.
That print paper is dear, that the
prices of the publications have not
been sufficiently increased since the
World war, and that advertisements
are scarce are leading arguments adj
vanced as reasons for this state of
affairs. But some trained observers
believe that the real reason is that.
like the press of other continental
countries, that of Rumania is too DO
litical and not sufficiently informative.
Every political party has its newspa-
per, but the circulation is necessarily
small because there are so many par
ties. Those newspapers that have set
themselves to print news in the real
sense of the word pay their way, al
though they cannot afford to reward
their staffs with high or even living
wages.

Activities of Fidac
During the Past Year

During the past year considerable
progress has been made in assuring
the former service men of the World
war voice in deciding questions of
peace and war, according to a report
from international headquarters of
Fidac at Paris which has been re-
ceived by national headquarters of the
American Legion.
Representation at the fifth arms
conference at Geneva, closer co-opera-
ton with the League of Nations, addi-
tiOn of a womans auxiliary and of a
number of new member associations
and work in ascertaining public opin-
ion in allied and former enemy coun-
tries, especially following the election
of Won Hindenburg as president of
Germany, are among the accomplish
ments set forth.
Fidac advocated the calling of a
fifth arms conference. The confer
ence was held at Geneva last May.
Fidac was by invitation officially rep
resented at the conference.
The organization was asked by the
League of Nations to assist in select
ing a veteran to represent former
service men in the information section
of the league
When Field Marshal Won linden
burg was elected president of the Ger
man republic, the permanent commit
tee on propaganda of Fidac took up
an investigation as to the public reac-
ton to his election in both allied and
former enemy countries. Their report
contributed to lessen anxiety felt in
certain places as to the possible eff
fects of the election.
Two French and four Polish veter-
ans associations, with a combined
membership of $4,000, were admitted
to membership. Plans for the forma-
ton of a woman's auxiliary to Fidac
occupied much thought during the
year.

CARLTON MUSIC
OF RARE BEAUTY
Expresses by Melodies True
Spirit of Country.

-Four hundred years ago Charles Y,
Roman emperor and Gas Charles u
king of Spain, inherited the territory
now within the boundaries of Holland
and Belgium.
Within this territory a civic music
of rare beauty came into being-a
music which. while continuing ever
since and increasingly holding a place
in the love of its people, has been IN
til lately almost unknown outside the
boundaries of its origin.
Gradually since the time when
Charles V reigned this music has been
wonderfully developed. Today it is
widely commanding artistic considera-
ton and, with its noble architectural
setting, it is coming to be recognized
as peculiarly fitted to adorn and slim
ulate civic and community life every
where.
The region of which this article
treats extends from the North sea
shores inward for fifty miles or more
in plains which are largely just above
high tide
On every side one sees scores of
cities, towns and villages. In the fore
ground these are clearly defined, but
in the middle distance they become
less distinct, and on the horizon In
soft and misty outline they almost
disappear.
In every such extended view, above
town hall and city gate and ancient
church, rises dominant here a rugged
tower, there tall belfry or a graceful,
slender spire. And each of these sky
ward-soaring structures becomes for
the traveller singing tower if, on
nearer approach, he finds it crowned
with that majestic instrument of mu-
sic called a carlton.
The word carlton" = pronounced
"car-i-lon," with the so" as in "atom"
and the derivative, "carilloneur,"
are French in origin, but now gen.
orally accepted in English.
After crossing the Atlantic we
touched at Plymouth and at Boulogne,
and then on a Friday night came in
sight of the shores of the Netherlands.
AT the mouth of the river Mas
(Meuse) we waited for the high tide
at two in the morning, to make it pos
sible for our great ship to steam slow
ly up to Rotterdam.
Here we found the tower of st. Law
rence's church, whose old bells make
not merely great musical instrument.
but by their melodies express the
spirit of the country over which they
sound
De Amicis, the Italian traveller. after
climbing the tower of st. Lawrence,
said that the indefinable sentiments
Inspired by the Dutch landscape held
him silent for long time. Then he
was startled by strange music coming
from he knew not where-the silvery
notes now falling slowly one by one,
now coming in groups, in trills, in
sonorous chords, quaint dancing
strain somewhat primitive, an echo of
the ancient life of her people, making
one smile and sigh at the same mo.
ment.

Mr.. Grin1n1's Wisdom,

Gaunton Grimm, addressing his pin

iced that the temptations that beset
rs are more in the man than in the
place. If Teller is determined to be
ornery he can get into trouble right
here at home, while if he is set upon
minding his own business he can go
pretty nearly anywhere without having
the gent with the horns run out and

for temptation rarely has it thrust up
