Howard Satirically
Suggests Col. House
Settle Farm Issue

Commenting on the published
writings of Edward Nj. House, for
many years persona adviser of
President Wilson, Representative
Howard, Democrat, Nebraska, SuG
gested in the House yesterday that
he be sent for by Congress to solve
the agricultural relief problem.
1t was evident from his writings,
Mr.. Howard said, that mo great
step has ever been taken by our
Nation without the advice of Mr.
House" and that President Wilson
made a mistake every time he
didn't act as House would have had
him."
Had Col. House lived earlier, Mr.
Howard continued, Ingersoll would
not have had to deliver his lecture
on the mistakes of Moses, because
Moses would not have made any.
If Col. House had been present, the
Nebraska Representative added,
Napoleon would not have depoSed

Thirteen Original States to Take Part
at Sesqui-C Centennial Celebration

AT SeSqul-IenIennlaI IeleDrdllOn
First Of the Original Thirteen Col
onies to ratify the Constitution Of the
United States, Delaware again has
achieved first honors in completing
her state building at the Sesqui- Cen
tennial International Exposition at
Philadelphia. Hundreds Of visitors
are attracted daily to the tasteful col
onial structure at the fork Of two
curving roads in the southwest part
Of the grounds, just off Broad Street
opposite the huge stadium and over
looking League Island Park swimming
pool. The splendid view impresses
the visitor as he approached the build
ing with its facade Of stately columns
edging the veranda from both sides
Of which II foo. terrace Of white
pebbles leads away to wind all around
the structure. Passing through a
spacious doorway the visitor finds
himself in the main reception and
lounging room, its paneled walls hung
with valuable paintings, while colon
ial-design electrical fixtures hang
from the attractive ceiling. This has
a large center panel of red, white and
blue silk, bordered by smaller rectang-
les developed in the Delaware colors-
a diamond Of gold against a blue
background. Prominent among the
murals is the original of Caesar Rod
ney, the Delaware signer of the Dec
laration of independence portraying
his arrival at the State House to af-
fix his signature to the historic docu-
ment; another of an old covered wag-

Nields is a trustee of the society.
Tribute to the founder Of the society
was paid by l. Janvier Woods, presi-
dent of the society. Despite the in
clement weather, more than one
thousand persons attended the cele-
bration services in the quaint church
from all parts of Delaware and near
by States. Smyrna was represented
by large contingent. The speakers
were the Rev. Charles L. Candee,
former pastor of Westminster Pres
byterian Church, Of Wilmington; Con
gressman Robert G. Houston, the Rev.
William T. Mcclure, Of St. Pauls NJ.
E. Church, Of Odessa; and |. Janvier
Woods, president Of the society of
Friends of Old Drawers" The pres
ent officers and trustees Of the society
were reelected. At the business meet
ing Of the society, it was decided to
paint and renovate in the near future
tie inside Of Drawers Church to con
form as nearly as possible with its
present appearance. Since the organ
ization of the society, its members
have repaired the church and beauti-
fed the cemetery grounds at cost Of
much effort and expense until it has
come To be known as one Of "Dela-
wares beauty spots" Improvement
Of the driveway leading into the Gem
etery from the State Road was also
discussed and will probably be carried
out later. Congressman Houston, Of
Georgetown, who addressed the after
noon service, paid high tribute to the
memory of Commodore Thomas Mac
donough, famed for his part in the
victory Of Lake Champlain in the War
Of 1912, and for his heroic action in
naval battles just prior to that war.
