FEDERAL PROTECTION OF GAME
BIRDS AND ANIMALS AN ISSUE
CONTROL AND FUTURE OF WILD
LIFE BEFORE BIG CONFERENCE
To be Held in New York City Decem-
Der 6 and Under Auspices Of
Game Protective Association

One of the most important meet
ings ever held in this country having
to do with the present status Of wild
life and the future of game birds and
animals will take place in New York
city, December 6 and Z next, when
the annual National Game Confer
ence conducts its sessions at the
Pennsylvania Hotel. The American
Game Protective Association under
whose auspices the Conference will
be held announces that there will be
present important members of the
United States, Canadian and Mexican
Governments who have to do witn the
control Of wild life, members of Game
Commissions Of practically all lne
States and Canadian Provinces, sports
men, game breeders and naturalists
and distinguished gathering of the
leading lovers of wild life in the
United States. The great Importance
of the Conference lies in the fact that
many Of the most eminent students of
wild life in the country believe that
the time has come when another great
cessful restoration of game. This
restoration Of game has already been
accomplished in a number of states.
Wild duck are increasing. Other game
is increasing under proper supervi-
sion and laws. 1t is blieved that with
the coordination of effort communi-
ties which are now suffering from a
scarcity of game birds and animals
can find their wild life restored.
Among the subjects which will be
taken up by the Conference is the
question of the wild duck disease
which is decimating many of these
fowls in certain localities. DR.. E. w.
Nelson, chief of the Biological Sur
vey of the United States Government,
who has made extensive studies in
the field of this subject, will present
his findings at the Conference. There
will be reports on the investigation of
grouse and plans for its restoration
in sections where it has become scarce
Experts who have devoted the past
year and more to the study of the
restoration Of quail will discuss their
work. Experts will also report on
the condition of the wild turkey and
methods under way to increase the
numbers of this bird.
The relation Of wild life to forestry
will be presented in its many aspects.
One Of the important features of
the Conference will be a discussion
of the question of the revision, codi-
fication and simplifcation of game
laws, also the question Of open sea
sons. Another important feature will
be the discussion of the relation of
farmers to sportsmen.
1t is expected as result of the
Conference there will be a unifcation
Of effort all along the line to preserve
the increase Of wild life.

Francis Moore, aged IS years, son
of Thomas Moore, Seaford, farmer,
suffered severe cash in his foot at
the recent fire which destroyed the
home Of Albert NJ. Short, near there.
Young Moore was trapped in a room
of the burning house, trying to save
what household goods he could, and
made his escape before being over
come by the smoke, by kicking out a
window, severely cutting his foot.

WANT BAKERS DEATH PROBED
Relatives Are Not Satisfied But That
His Death Was Of Foul Play

The funeral of John G. Baker, took
place Thursday afternoon from his
home in Harrington, with interment
in old Barratt's Chapel cemetery.
Considerable mystery surrounds his
death. He was found in an uncon-
scious condition along the Delaware
railroad near Harrington Sunday
morning, November IA, and died in
the Milford Emergency Hospital Mon
day morning, the 18th. Relatives of
Baker are of the opinion that he met
with foul play and will insist upon a
rigid investigation Of his death being
made by the State authorities. Offic-
ers are continuing their investigation
Of the case but have reached no con-
clusien. The family is convinced that
Baker was assaulted near the place
where his hat and thirty-three cents
in money were found,which was about
three-quarters of a mile from the
place where he was found unconscious
and that he was then carried to the
place where found.

the ensuing year were elected and re-
ports read. Mr.. Candy, the treasurer
reported that 200 new members had
enrolled in the State last year, and
that in response to the Florida Relief
appeal $17,500 had come in. Mr..
Scott stated that the National Red
Cross was still furnishing relief in
eight Florida districts, and that there
are still 23,500 families injured in one
way or another on their lists. The
fund collected by the National Red
Cross for this work amounted to $4,-
100000. Cuba had received $1,0OO,-
900 and that 5000 families, mostly in
Illinois and Oklahoma, ruined and in
jured by tornados and floods, were be
ing taken care of. Miss carp spoke
of the work among the wounded sold
iers and gave an enthusiastic descrip-
ton of the Junior Red Cross which is
growing rapidly in numbers. The en-
rollment this year was: Wilmington
Public Schools, 8,O19 pupils; Private
and Parochial, 1,S41; New Castle
county schools, 4,123 pupils; Kent
county, 1858; Sussex county, 3,427;
High schools, 2,448. Total-22,

Further argument in connection with
the ad quod damnum proceedings
growing out of the condemnation by
the State Highway Department Of
strip of the property of DR.. B. 1.
Veasey, needed for the widening of
the Philadelphia pike at the top Of
Penny Hill. was heard by Chief JUS
tice Pennewill and Judge Rodney in
Superior Court Wednesday afternoon.
Decision was withheld. A commits
sion appointed by Resident Judge Rice
awarded DIR. Veasey $2100 damages
and the jury ad quod damnum award
ed $45OO damages. James l. Boyce,
representing the highway department,
obtained the quashing of the return
of the ad quod damnum jury bcause
of defects, and the question now be-
fore the court is as to whether or not
counsel for DR.. Veasey shall be per-
mitted to amend their petition for a
writ of ad quod damnum. Marvel,
Layton, Hughes and Morford and
Walter J. Willis rpresent DIR. Veasey.

First concerning the teachers. The
teacher that is rated as "First Grade"
iii Delaware has had four-year high
school course, and two years in a nor
NAL or teacher-training department.
1t is generally agreed that it is use
less to hope to see the widespread
adoption of modern methods in the
school rooms with anything less than
these qualifications on the part of the
teachers. In the entire State, includ-
ing Wilmington and the Special Dis
tricts, less than one-half of the teach
ers hold first grade certificates; in the
open country, only one out of every
three, holds first grade certificate
The lack of a teacher-training school
in the State, until recently, lower sal
aries than are paid in the adjoining
states of Maryland and New Jersey,
poor buildings and equipment with
which to work, are causes contribut-
ing largely to the unsatisfactory sit
uation.
The good teacher is in demand the
country over. Delaware will get them
only when she provides conditions
which will attract good teachers.
Second, concerning buildings. No
building can be called good which does
rot guarantee to every child an ar
rangement of windows which prevents
cross-lights; a heating system which
makes possible an even temperature
in the room; wash rooms in which
such sanitary conditions prevail as to
safeguard health; adequate protection
from fire; and a generous supply of
properly protected drinking water for
his health's sake; or class rooms
which allow not for listening only,
but also for action; an opportunity
for practise in common good enter
enterprises, necessary for the develop
ment of a citizen in democracy.
Fifty percent of Delaware's schools
fall short of the mark. Fully one
half of all the children in Delaware
it is known, are being sent to school
in buildings which not only make i'm
possible any modern educational prac-
tice, but endanger as well, their health
and personal safety.
According to the standards cited,
only one-fourth of the children in the
City of Wilmington, are in satisfac-
tory school buildings. One-half will
be provided for when the program
now financed and under way is COM
pleted.
Approximately $4,000 children are
enrolled in the State outside of Will
mington. 1857 of these are going to
school in rented rooms; 776 in tenn
porary class rooms. 1882 are hous-
ed in buildings that score less than
500 points out of possible 1000 In
some instances the buildings repre-
sent something less than adequate
shelter from the weather.
The State of Delaware therefore, is
in urgent need of class rooms for ap-
proximately $4,000 children outside of
Wilmington, and for $500 children in
Wilmington. On the basis of 35 chill
dren per class room, this represents
an immediate need for GA class
rooms.
Delaware has adopted a statewide
school system. The State is derelict
in its duty if it fails to provide salts
factory school buildings.
