THE CHRISTMAS SEALS

All over the country Christmas
seals are being distributed for the
anti-tuberculosis cause. Your letter
or parcel looks much more Christ
massy, and it carries a message OF
good cheer, if it has one or more of
these seals.
The old idea was to call doctor
after you got sick. The modern idea
is to take such care of yourself that
you won't have to call a doctor.
Such plan may lessen the business
the medical profession obtains, but
by the noble spirit of helpfulness
which is the glory of their calling,
they give 100 per cent support to
every health measure that tends to
reduce sickness.
The effects of tuberculosis have
been greatly mitigated by health
education, but there is still a great
amount of it. When you buy these
seals you help save the people of
Delaware.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS

AS people select and offer their
Christmas gifts, and tell their chill
dren what Christmas means, the
main idea and purpose of this giving
should not be lost sight Of.
Such giving has been too limited
in scope. When people give only to
their friends, the gifts have some
thing the character of an exchange.
Love goes with the act, so that it is
admirable even if it is an exchange
But Christmas gifts limited to the
narrow circle of families and friend
ship, lack something of the broad
and inclusive feeling that should go
with this happy season.
If people want to observe the true
spirit of Christmas then, they will
look around in their own home
towns or neighborhoods, and try to
seek out people who are in real
need of help, and make some offer
ings to them. They can well spend
a little less money in heaping pres
ents on those who already have
and save some of it for
those who have real need.

The regular meeting. of the Har.
rington New Century Club was held
Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. c. F
Wilson presiding. Mrs. Ernest Van
Felt was unanimously elected to
membership in the club. The chair
man of membership presented one
new name, that of Mrs. Sewell j.
Knox. The corresponding secre-
tary reported that a Thanksgiving
greeting from the club, consisting
of a bottle of perfume, together
with beautiful little poem, written
by Mrs. George Potter, had been
sent to Miss Helena Newman, one
OF the club members who is now
at Pinehurst. The president ap-
pointed Mrs. w. w. Sharp and Mrs.
&. b. Rash to prepare the annual
Christmas box to be sent to the
Delaware Colony. No further busi-
ness, Mrs. e. B. Rash, chairman of
the day, then took charge, whose
subject was Libraries and Litera-
ture." One of the most beautiful
programs of the year was presented
as follows: Part 1, Libraries-A
reading circle whose members read
selections on Better Homes and
American Citizenship through bet
ter libraries. These selections in
cluded articles written by President
Coolidge, Mrs. L. A. Miller and 9th

ing circles were Mrs. E. B. Rash,
Miss Emma Downes, Miss Martha
Knox, Mrs. L. T. Jones, Mrs. H. J. |

and Mrs. Clyde Miller. Part I
Literature. A little sketch suggest
ed by the book, Gross Roads to
Childhood" was as follows: Bar
bara Masten taking the part of the
mother, and Virginia Hammond the
child, were seated in the woods dis
cussing the characters of the differ
ent books they had read, when the
child suddenly expressed a desire
to see a real fairy. Marjorie Black
and Adele Masten, taking the part
of fairies, then appeared on the
scene. The child then asked tne
fairies to bring to her the different

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

Appreciation should be expressed
to all business men and residents of
Milford or any town, who contribute
to the success of the holiday season
by decorating their stores and
homes. Pretty and well arranged
window displays tell the public over
a wide area that our business peo-
pie have provided for every Christ
mas need.
Wreaths and trimming and colored
lights for our dwellings suggest
that we have a happy home life, and
they give a welcome to all returning
children and visiting guests who en-
Joy the privileges of these homes at
this joyous season.

PLANNING FOR CHRISTMAS

The merchants of Milford lay
elaborate plans for their Christmas
business, and long before this they
have been placing their orders and
getting in the stock which people
desire for the gift and winter sea-
son.
It takes faith and enterprise to
provide the big Christmas stocks
and these stocks grow each year in
attractiveness and comprehensive
ness. We do not know what we are
missing when we fail to examine
these stocks carefully before buy
ing. II there is anything the people
want here, the merchants know all
about it, and have provided for it.

EXPERIMENTS IN FARM cleo
trifcation are bearing results in a
rapidly increasing number of farms
equipped for use of power.
At the end Of 1926, $4,000 farms
were supplied with electric service
as compared with 10000 in 1928.
During 1927, an additional 21,127
farms were connected. Outstanding
progress is being made this year.
We are gradually approaching a
time when practically all farms,
throughout the entire nation, will
have electric service available. Such
exhaustive projects as the Red Wing,
Minnesota, experimental line have
shown, by practical example, what
the farmer may expect of wide
spread use of power. Few modern
farmers any longer have any doubts
as to the benefit and success of ru-
raj electrifcat1On.
The innovation of rural electric
service departments by number of
large utilities, has forwarded the
work. The farmer is given expert
advice on the most advantageous
ways to use power and is shown ad-
vanced electrical equipment. These
departments are rapidly solving the
difficulties caused by farmers who
did not understand correct and
scientific usage.
Electricity is not only helping to
solve the farm labor problem, which
is said to have caused serious agri-
cultural depression in some locali-
ties, but it is providing a new econ
omy, efficiency and comfort of farm
operation. Unless all signs fail, it is
instituting a new and more prosper
GUS agricultural era.

CHRISTMAS TRADE

The season of Christmas buying
has begun. Astute purchasers have
been keeping their Christmas needs
in mind for some time, and they
find that the stores of Milford are
splendidly stocked with the things
that they need for gift purposes.
The idea of early Christmas buy
ing may be an old story. But it is
something that needs to be told over
and over again to the people. The
agitation for the purpose has al
ready had marked effect. Propa-
ganda on this subject has educated
the people up to the point where
they partly realize the desirability of
early buying, and great many peo-
pie are getting these purchases out
of the way several weeks before
Christmas.
People who buy early accomplish
something for their own interest.
They get the very cream of the stock
which is not so depleted as it will
be later after the public has had a
chance to pick and choose. Many
people appreciate the advantage of
getting the first look at goods be-
fore the public has come in to
handle them. They can now see the
full and complete assortment of the
things they want.
People save a lot of time when
they do their shipping before the
holiday rush, and get the packages
off before the lines begin to form at
the post Office windows. 1t would be
a wonderful thing if half of the peo-
ple could make their Christmas pur-
chases and have them shipped out
Of Milford two weeks before the
holiday. Mark your packages "Do
not open before Christmas"
The stores could do business more
could give better atten-
ion to customers, and everyone
would be saved time and annoyance
" following out this plan. Worry, I
hurry, and strain would be saved to s
POSTAL and store employees. 1t is
,lan that costs nothing, and works !
o everyone's benefit. Leave the /
asst two weeks for purchases by S
hose who have no money ahead I
nth which they can anticipate their =
,ants. {

TOMORROW'S SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
The Career of
Christ
BY REV. EDWARD TABER

the divine; that, however, brief.
this life may be, there Is yet
hope for the continuance Of per-
sonality after death; that how.
ever cruel specifically nature
may appear to be, there Is yet
4 governing power, something
not ourselves that makes for
righteousness not only, but Tor
cosmic order.
It may be said, without APP
pearing too dogmatic, that Christ
is in D unique sense the Savior
Of man. He has brought 4
spiritual satisfaction to think
ing men chat no other has been
able to- do. There can be no
possible comparison, for iH1-
stance, between the Bible and
the Koran. Admitting that all
portions Of the Scripture are.
not Of equal value, the book Is.
4 whole surely transcends any
ever written.
The career Of Christ was
brief. The ministry covered.
three years. But they were
crowded years, Of great achieve
ment and constant teaching.
When at last Christ's enemies
declared, We found this fellow
peryerting the nations" the Mas
ter had accomplished j work
that the cross could in no sense
efface.
TO the great prophets Of re-
Iigion all honor Is due. To
those who have made LIES burr
dens i little less grievous and
little less heavy to be borne,
we owe ! vast debt. To such
noble characters as Socrates,
who, after affirming his faith
in Immortality, set boldly forth
on the sea OF eternity in the
frail craft Of intuition, let US
give praise. But with Christ
came 4 new assurance that here
was one who spoke, not as the
Scribes and Pharisees, but as
one having authority.

The greatest religious teacher
of all time was Jesus Of Naza-
reth. The founders Of world re-
ligions have been men Of keen
spiritual vision. Gautanna, who
was called Buddha, was the
founder Of 4 faith that has de-
parted from his teachings.
Buddha, in his irsistence on Z
remuneration Of desire and striv-
ing, promulgated religion that,
while giving spiritual peace, Is
at the core pessimistic.
ConfuciuS was simply i phi-
losopher. He had little respect
for the current gods. About the
doctrine Of Immortality he did
not speculate. Lao-tse, too, was
more philosopher than :
prophet.
Zoroaater was the founder Of
4 religion that is now relatively
unimportant. He taught that
good was positive, bad negative,
light positive, and darkness neg
alive.
Mohammed was d religious re-
former; q fanatic, and yet one
who certainly improved the
moral and religious standards Of
his day.
With proper respect to these
great teachers Of religion, it Is
yet difficult to compare them
with Jesus of Nazareth. None
had SO vital and yet sane =
faith. None spoke with such
marvellous beauty.
Christ Ii spoken Of IS the
Savior. Without attempting to
define the word in q theological
sense, He has been in very
real way the Savior Of men.
The need Of mankind for the
consolation Of religion Ii obvi-
Gus. To the extent that the re-
ligious teachers of history have
given man this consolation they
have been saviors. To teach
that man, whatever his short
conings, has in him 4 spark Of
