MOTHER

EyEW days on our calendar are

ours every day in the year. There

make no difference in mother love.
To mother the grown-up boy or

NAMED the same. and that she is
still endeavoring to help and guide

been taken from you, remember
that you are her contribution to
the world; that thru you she lives
and carries on. She has given you
a memory of love and self-sacri-
fee that can be your inspiration
and consolation in time of diff

What, then, can we do to keel
her memory fresh and glorious, o.

There is one place where it seems
that nothing can take the place OF

pA1s1NG THE SPEED LIMIT

HaaNY states are fixing the max
Wl imum speed on county roads
at forty and forty five miles an
hour. Thus far the changes have
apparently been a success ana
there is no reliable record to show
that safety on the highway is any
less attainable than before.
There are accidents every day TO
he sure but that is nothing new,
and so far as can be learned, the
increased speed, alone, has not
been an extra hazard. Motor trail
fc is a long way yet from the
ideal. as to safety, and whenever
there is congestion mishaps occur.
While there are many instances
of gross recklessness In driving,
and while no way has yet been
found to bar from driving, con-
siderable percentage of both sexes
who are temperamentally untitled
to sit behind wheel, Americans
as nation are developing high
degree of facility in motoring, and
there is greater skill and mucr
Greater care in driving than four
or five years ago.
Were this not the case the rap
idly increasing registration OF We,
hicles would have caused a proper.
tionately greater number of acct
dents, while on the contrary, ac'
cidents tend to become fewer II
proportion to the number OF cars
on the road.
CHASTITY as the record Of high
way fatalities is, figures show tina
year by year there are fewer fol
the number of cars and drivers.
Speed is not in itself as much
factor in casualties as careless O
incompetent driving. The day ma.
yet come when dangerous speeding
will be defined not in miles by tn
hour but in conditions and circum
stances.

Mr.. Tilney was born in Millsboro.
A lover of books, he had some 3d.

with Delaware, Maryland and Vir-
ginia.
When a young man Mr.. Tilney

Canal completely, more water will
pass through the Indian River Inlet,
thereby keeping it open and building
up a large seafood industry for Sus-
sex county"
Former Senator Louis A. DreXler,
of Delaware, who led the opposition
to the closing of the Assawoman
Canal, said the Assawoman Canal
was constructed in 1886 by the Fed
eral Government for two purposes
only. One for protection purposes in
the advent of war, and the other for
the establishment of an inland wat
erway route along our coast. If the
people in 1886 had the foresight to
spend many thousands of dollars in
the interest of opening up an inland
water transportation route, he said,
then it is up to the Federal govern
ment to advance their plans, instead
of defeating them.
Dr.. Thomas Hammond, of Berlin,
Md, and Mayor William w. McCabe
of Ocean City, representing Worces-
ter county, also pointed out that, by
closing the Assawoman Canal this
section will lose a northern outlet
for water transportation. In addition
the annual seafood output of ASA
woman, Isle of Wright and Sinepux-
ent bays will be greatly affected by
the change they contend entailing
loss of thousands in the fishing in
dustry in this section.
Lieutenant-C Colonel Howell express
sion of opinion to Mayor McCabe
that, in view of the work going on
at present to open Indian River In

would be obliged to uphold the In

that the War Department order the
