TEN MILLIONS FOR
SCHOOL PROPAGANDA

An effort is to be made to greak
down American nationalissm thru
the schools, according to the Ma
tional Republic, which in the cur
rent issue, quotes a speaker at the
recent convention in Washington of
the National Educational AssOcia-
tion, as declaring that fund of ten
million dollars is being raised to
teach school children in America
and throughout the world that ma
tiOnalism means war and interna-
tionalism means peace. The Nation
al Republic continues:
"An excess of the national spirit
has not led this nation into any one
of the wars in which it has been en-
gagged, although the lack of it has
more than once brought about a
degree of military and naval unpre-
paredness which has invited attack
and endangered the country when
was has been forced upon us. There
is no reason to believe that outside
influences will be permitted to carry
on political propaganda in the
schools of any country other than
the United States, so that this high
ly financed internationalist pro-
gram, in the opinion of many, will
only mean an effort to denatiOnal-
ize the United States. Who is will

HE'S COMING BACK AGAIN

Douglas Fairbanks screen sensa-
tion. "The Thief of Bagdad," ," will be
the attraction at tie Plaza Theatre
next Wednesday and Thursday. 1t
has been said by the critics in ev-
cry city where this picture has been
shown, that happenings so eXtraor-
binary, so amazing, the thought OF
picturing them had not heretofore
been listed among the possibilities.
According to all accounts nothing
like it has ever been attempted;
nothing like it has ever been seen;
nothing like it has ever been accom-
plished. Some of the outstanding
features of this highly romantic
story, out of the Arabian Nights,
are: The Magic Carpet, by the use OF
which the Thief and the Princess fly
over the house-tops and away into
the land of Romance; The Winged
Horse, mounted on which the Thief
flies up to and through the Clouds;
The Clock of Invisibility which, with
weird effect, shields the Thief from
human sight; The Flight Of a Thous-
and Steps leading to the Citadel of
the Moon, The Spider many times
bigger than a man, The Living Dra-
gon of gigantic size. The Cavern of
Enchanted Trees. The Wondrous
Idol, so great in size that man can
stand upon its chin and barely reach
it's lips, The Crystal Realm far be-
meath the floor of the sea, where
beautiful sirens abide. The Valley of
Fire, The Mountain of Dread Adven-
ture, The Sea of Midnight, and
scores of other features that render
this glorious fantasy of ancient Bag
dad the most enthralling spectacle
ever brought to the screen.
The more important members of
the cast are Julanne Johnston, for
merly a member of the famous Nor
gan Dancers, who impersonates the
Princess; So-Jin Kamayama, i'm
ported from Japan, where he has
been the leading Shakespearean ac-
tor, who impersonates the Mongol
Prince. Anna May Wong, a charming
little Chinese f1apper, is seen in the
part of the slave. Snitz Edwards is
the Thief's evil associate; Brandon
Hurst is the Caliph.

who was a brigadier general in the
field artillery during the World War,
and Major 4. J. Johnson, also of the
field artillery will be the inspecting
officers.
The inspection has been set for a
month earlier than usual this year

work ahead for the military depart
ment for the next few weeks. At the
result of the excellent showing made
by the r. o. T. c. unit the past three
years the University of Delaware
has been designated Distinguished
College" in military each year and
Major Underwood and the officers
under him are anxious to keep this
fine record. The inspection generally
attracts a large number of visitors
to Newark.
The Footlights Club of the Uni
versity of Delaware is planning to
make a tour of the state during the
Easter vacation in "Smax and CraX''
and will appear in several towns
down the state that week. 1t is like
ly that the show will be given in
Middletown, Dover, Milford, Lewes,
Georgetown and several other towns.
Rehearsals are being held daily.
Warmer weather this week brought
out a large number of candidates for
both baseball and track at the Uni
versity of Delaware. Some improve
ments have been made to both the
baseball diamond and the quarter Of
a mile track for the coming season
Until this week there had been little
practice on Frazer Field owing tC
the unusually cold weather. The first
baseball game of the season at New.

APPRECIATES GOOD WORK

The following letter came to the
Chronicle office from a former resi-
dent of Sussex county, Delaware,
this week, which brings pleasant
recognition for the writer of the
weekly letter from Ocean View, Del
aware, which is appreciated by not
only the residents of that part Of
Sussex, but by many who have gone
to other states and cities to make
their home. This letter was past
marked at Philadelphia and 1t IS
reproduced here for general intor-
nation of those who have felt the
same inclinations as the writer, Dut
have not written or told of their sat
isfaction. The Milford Chronicle has
over six thousand persons who re-
reive the paper each week, and they
find lust the same information as TO
the old home, the old county ana the
old state as the writer. That is one
of the reasons why the people want
the Chronicle, and one OF the rea-
sons why the advertisers want TO
use it's columns.
The letter follows:
"The writer of this letter gets
so much pleasure from receiving
and reading the Milford Chronl-
Gle each week, and especially the
letter from Ocean View, in old
Sussex county, that it is real
deprivation to miss even one is
sue.
4 do not know Of any one per
son who makes so many hearts
happy, as the writer of that let
ter. who is Mrs. Ethel David
son. I have thought that the
folks who live in Philadelphia
(and there are scores OF these
alone) and also those who live ,
at Ocean View and other places
throughout Delaware, Maryland
and New Jersey, who would IKE
to express their appreciation OK
her work each week, by writing,
or ioin me in sending to MIS-
Ethel Davidson, Ocean View,
delaware, an Easter card-Just
to let her know how much we
appreciate her weekly efforts TO
nresent the local news; who is
in town; who is sick and the
other items which keep us IN
touch with the beloved home
and old Sussex county, through
the columns Of the Milford
Chronicle.
"As Easter draws near let
those who have loved ones who
have been laid to rest in the
sands of old Sussex, join in the
Easter Card Shower and help to
make Easter Just a little more
bright for one who does so much
for us.
1--WE were glad to read of the
wonderful meetings which were
held in Old Bethel. It's the col
orful local news supplied from
the correspondents of the Mil
ford Chronicle, that has bound
us in strong ties with our native
state"

Letters of this character rails

that the people of the world are get

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
Aid for the inexperienced.
BY GEORGE I. HUGHES-

! In the series of which this article is
! the first, an attempt will be made t.
outline in the simplest terms possible
! the principles which govern the in
vestment of money. II is assured, for
the purpose, that the reader has no
| knowledge whatever of financial mat
ters and no acquaintance with securi
! ties. In the writer's mind will he Il
man or woman who has come into
| the possession of sum of money
! through saving or by inheritance OF
| in some other manner. and who is
| interested first in preserving the prin
cipal amount intact and second IN
using the money SO g 10 bring in a
regular and dependable income. The
need for guidance of this class will
be the primary object of the series.
IT Is not the plan to suggest how
capital may be increased by purcha So
and sale of securities. The one is in
vest ment and the other is speculation.
and the two rarely can he success
| fully combined. The aim of these
articles Is to discuss ways to keen
money, not how to make it.
There are two common mistakes
| almost certain to cause heavy losses
continually made by the inexperienced
! One is TO demand too high rent fnr
the use of their funds, and the Other
is to confuse investment with specu-
lation. The two shade into one an
other SO that il is not always possible
TO say just where investment ends
and speculation begins, but they diff
fer sharply in one respect, and that
is in the motive.
The man who IS concerned first OF
all with securing an income in the
shape of interest or dividends or rent
is investing; the man whose main
purpose is to increase his principal
by buying property, whether real es
tate or bonds or stock or anything
else, at a low price and selling at a
higher is specializing.
The latter has only a secondary con
Germ or sometimes no concern at all
with the rate of the dividend on his
/ stock or the rent from his building.
His vital interest is in the fluctuations
of market price. He generally finds
his best opportunities entirely outside
income producing property, but his
problem does not come within the
scope of this discussion.
