A READY MADE ISSUE

It should not be difficult matter for the group
Of Democratic leaders, named "a advance of the
convention, to find an issue which to wage their
war for two senatorshps.
They have one in Watson and the record OF
Watson.
They have another in the brief record OF Robin
son and his serve sycophancy to Watson as against
the pledge made by his sponsor, Governor Jackson,
that he would at all times support Coolidge.
The low estate of the management of the Re-
publican party its control by those who seek directly
or Indirectly, contracts from the State government,
the arrogant and INSCRIPTIONS attitude toward any
demand for decency, should be sufficient to con-
denim it, if something better offered in con-
trast.
"a campaign this contrast would win if there
is contrast offered
The issue is settled the short term. In
Evans Woollen, the Democrats have a candidate
who will appeal to the intently minded men and
women of the State.
His fitness and his background should be sufh-
cient to insure his election.
If the convention when it meets next week
lodges stupid actions and incidents if the dele
gates show any wisdom whatever, the revolt within
the ranks of the Republican party ought to reward
it with success in the fall
If it truckles to the influences which dom
mates the Republican party, if it is timid and eau
sideraton the ideas and ideals of the independent
voters, it will deserve defeat.
There is some evidence that the politicians of
that party will try to make the convention an echo
of the Republican gathering.
At time when the people demanding re-
turn to the simplicity of Jeffersonian ideas of indi
vidual rights, the leaders of that party hesitate
The issue is made to order in ringing call to
return the Government to the people instead of
giving all power to the centralized Government at
Washington
The people of this and every other State still
cling to the idea, foolish perhaps that they are fit
to rule themselves and need no guardian in the
form of a paternalistic government at Washington.
They believe that they are fit to pass any
subject.
They are tired of having laws passed at the dicta-
ton of self-appointed leaders of noisy minorties
They do not believe that the Nation would be
wrecked if they and their neighbors should be al
lowed a referendum on Volsteadism.
They believe that the American way of settling
questions is to discover and then translate the will
of the people into law.
The spirit of fair play and honesty is still
strong enough with both those who favor Volstead
the will of the majority
promise to let the people rule and faith
enough in that doctrine to pledge the State to ref
erendurn on this question would be far from polt
ical mistake
Will the convention, either in it's candidate for
the long term senatorship in its platform offer
reasonable excuse for the independent voter go to
the polls?

THE MISHAPS OF LIFE

Diplomat turned felicitOuS anecdO-
tist, Henry MOrgenthau recently Vls-
tied the White House on an errand
for one of the practical philanthropy
les in which he and President Cool
idge are interested. One of the best
of his anecdotes dealt with Mrs.
Rockefeller and Jacob Schiff. Mr..
Morgenthau said:
az recently attended dinner in
honor of DR.. Henry Pratt Judson,
president of Chicago University, who
had Just returned from visiting Per-
sia on behalf of the Near East Re-
lief. Mrs. Rockefeller attended, and
was seated beside Jacob Schiff, emil
nent for good works outside of Wall
Street even as for great financial
feats inside. RI
Game a waiter serving coffee, un-
noticed by the financier. who mad
vertently jostled the serving arm
spiIling a liquid stream across Mrs.
Rockefeller's gown. Mr.. Schiff fell
into a panic of embarrassment, while
the lady tactfully assured him that
he must regard the incident as toe
trivial for concern.
"But Mr.. Schiff mourned, and re-
membered. A week later he showed
me with great qualification a note
from Mrs. Rockefeller, accepting g
lace scarf which he had sent hel
with the hope that it might cover
the spot on her gown"
Mr.. Morgenthau cited the incident
as proving that the biggest Of mel
will devote themselves to straighten'
ing out even the little mishaps oi
life. Blu there's neater charm II

Mrs. Rockefeller say as the coffee

"It won't do any great harm" she
remarked. ''This dress has beer

What Does Business Actually Earn

In 1925, a widely prosperous year,
a well-knOwn company engaged in
the manufacture of agricultural ma
chinery earned something less than
SIS a share on its common stock. For
the same period one of the country's
largest film companies reported a net
income equivalent to- a few cents
more than Sc share on its common;
company in the retail drug busi-
ness showed net earnings equal to
$12.27 on its common stock; a type
writer company earned about Sc for
it's stockholders, and one of the
cOuntry's foremost automobile man
ufacturing companies showed a net
profit equivalent to about $3.50 on it's
common shares. In 1925 a steel COM
pany did the largest business in its
history. Its net income amounted to
les than S13 for each share of its
common stock. Last year was also
prosperous for the rubber industry,
yet one of the "big five" rubber COM
panies earned only slightly more
than SO share on its common stock.
Those figures are taken from ear
nings reports picked at random.
They are the earnings of representa-
tive, honest, ably-managed corpora
tions, some of them leaders in their
respective fields. They give an idea
of what business actually earns. Ger
tainly, those cannot be considered

A SUCCESSFUL cow CAMPAIGN

Interest in dairying in North Car
olina is at high pitch since the sue
cessful completion of the statewide
dairy-sire campaign conducted dur
ing the first eight months Of the
year. During that time 223 scrub
dairy bulls were removed from the
State and $50 purebred sires were
placed. One full transportation and
five three-fourths transportations to
the National Dairy Show were given
as rewards to the six county agents
doing the best work in the campaign.
A full transportation was given to
the district agent in whose territory
the greatest amount of work was
done. Aside from the benefits receiv-
ed by the State in having so many
purebred bulls placed, the large
amount of educational work and
publicity in connection with the
campaign is resulting in a renewed
interest in dairying. According to w.
E. Wintermeyer, of the United States
Bureau of Dairy Industry, who CO.
operated with John A. Arey, State
dairy specialist, in conducting the
campaign, this is one Of the best ex-
ampIes of success in such work in
the South.

BITS OF EVIDENCE
Illustrating Delaware's Need For
New School Buildings.

At MarshalltOn, in New Castle
county, school is being held IN hVe
different buildings, located on oppo-
site sides of a dangerous curve III
tbe Lincoln Highway. Traffic streams
by continuously. All toilet facllltles
are across the highway for the Drst
and fourth grade children, at least
1875 Yards distant from the renteu
school rooms.
II seems impossible to the writer
to conceive a more perfect nre Trap
than the room occupied by the fourth
Grade children in the Marshallton
district. Formerly an apartment
with one means of eXit-a dark
wooden stairway, by actual meas
urement 80 inches in width. !he
room itself q 10, is feet inches
from the floor to ceiling. Two hun
dred cubic feet of air space are nee
essarv in order to safeguard the
health of a child, specialists tell us.
one hundred sixteen cubic feet are
nossible in this school room. In the
center of the room is huge square
chimney. A stove, attached to IT,
smokes occasionally. Beneath three
small windows are tin roofs. The
teacher plans, in case OF ire TO get
the children out onto the roof.
~
The fifth grade children are
ouartered in dreary lodge room. At
their backs is a. stage covered with
old lumber, providing an ideal spot
for dust accumulation. Attendance
was poor on the day of the visit on
account of scarlet fever in the dis
trict.
At Williams, near Milton, in Sus1
sex county, children are quartered
in a small shed-like building set up
in the midst of a pine woods in the
wear 1860. Two small windows, on
either side are partly covered by
coats, hats, and school bags that
hang on nails driven in the sash.
BY crOwding it has been found pos
;sible to get in desks for twenty-fOur
children. Thirty-one were present
the day of the visit, with additional
children expected as soon as they
have been relieved from fall work.
. The extra pupils crown in, three in
a seat. The school should logically
be consolidated with Milton.
~
Milton is the logical place for
A,odern, consolidated school. But
Milton is unable to take care OF It's
own children. The enrolment has IN
creased in the last six years from
18O to 300. The playground adjoining
the school is less than One-htth Oh
an acre. The children have to be dis
missed in relays for recess. rms
means distracting noise while those
on the inside try to study. A bunga-
low has recently been rented for the
first and second grades. The Home
Economics Department is housed in
a room in the Masonic building
"The money that is being spent for
rent would cover the interest on the
necessary investment for the right
kind of a school plant" the principal
of the school stated. "were it pos
sible to secure the money for the
permanent investment" There IS
positively no space in the school for
high school equipment.
