GIVES POINTERS
ON STARTING

To many car owners cold weather
driving" and hard starting" are
synonymous.
1t Is true that an engine does
not start as easily in low temper
allure as in the summer. but a little
care on the part of the owner will
go a long way toward minimizing
the difficulty.
First, according to Sumner s.
Howard. service manager of tha AC
Spark Plug Company, it is obvious
that an engine in good condition will
perform all it's functions, including
starting, more satisfactorily than
one which is out of adjustment.
The principal parts which have a
direct bearing on the starting IF an
engine are: Battery, starting motor.
carburetor, spark plugs, ignition sys-
tenn and valves.
AS the efficiency Of the battery
is materially reduced in cold weather,
it should be given great considera-
ton. If the electrical system is
weak. complete combustion cannot
be obtained, therefore, before The
start of winter, it is good preven.
tive insurance to have some rep
utable electrical service station
check over the battery, spark plugs
and entire ignition system. The
starting motor very seldom causes
trouble.
The carburetor must be adjusted
properly for the winter and choke
and throttle controls connected
properly. The spark plugs are
equipped with two electrodes set
in such a manner that the electric
current must Jump across a small

Third, he will favor use of the

the manufacture of fertilizer and
research work for agriculture.
Fourth, he favors sale of the
surplus power to private dis

Fifth, in any sale OF power, he
will require terms not only safe

Sixth, he would not oppose a

Governments and the consuming
public's interests were protected.
Seventh, he would not oppose
governmental operation of the pro-
ject, both for agricultural expert

private companies failed to make
fair offers for the huge project.

UNDERMINING THE BATHROOM
STATE WIDE MEETING FOR
WOMEN

All women interested in the home
and home-making will be interested
in attending the Annual Home Eco
Monies meeting to be held on Satur-
day, March 31st, at 1880 noon.
The program will open with a
very palatable luncheon in the new
Sesqui Inn which is on the du Pont
Highway, one mile north of Dover.
ALI those who saw the Delaware
Building as the Sesqui will recog-
nize it and those who did not will
have no trouble in finding it.
Delaware women will be given an
unusual opportunity to hear two
splendid talks by women who IRE
homemakers as well as having had
extensive experience with Home &c
onomics work in many other fields.
Mrs. Eda Lord Demarest, who is
chairman of the International Com
mittee of the Home Economics Asso-
citation will talk on "Home Econom-
les All Around the World" for she
has organized and taught this sub
ject in several foreign lands.
Mrs. Chase Going WoOdhouse be-
sides being housekeeper and the
mother of two small children is a
Home Economist with the U. S. Bur-
eau of Home Economics. Her topic
will be "Some Recent Studies in
Home Management" All house
keepers will agree that the manage
ment of their homes is their prob
lem, their big job and those who look
at it as such will welcome the OPP
portunity to hear such valuable sug-
gestions as Mrs. Woodhouse is in a
position to offer.
It is only once year that the
women of the state have this SPLEEN
did opportunity. All those who at
tended the meeting, which was held
at Newark last year, will never for
get the interesting program and the
talk given by the principle speaker
DIR. Nina B. Simmonds. The pro-
gram will be equally good this year
and it is likely there will be some
social features as well.
All those interested should make |
Immediately with Miss
Louise Beck, Dover High School,
Dover, Delaware. The program is
rec. The price of the luncheon is
;1.00 per person. Surely no home
maker could better invest dollar.

HOME DEMONSTRATION
CLUBS HELP In WORK

number of counties in Virginia
have carried community proJecI
during 1927 as a part OF their nome
demonstration program. Many IN
teresting results have been reported
to the United States Department OF
Agriculture. Most often the COM
mnnity work consisted in establish
ing or improving some public build
ing used frequently by farm women
or bv the community as a whole.
For example, the Elon Home DEM
onstration Club, in Amhert county,
decided to improve the library, WIN
its attached kitchenette used for
large community gatherings, and the
library grounds. The club contrl-
buted a $40 gold piece won the pre-
ceding year for the best county
record, and each member gave a
dollar, while a Lynchburg business
man interested in home demonstra-
tion work added $25. Husbands,
sons, and brothers helped with the
work, but the women did their
share, too. The old platform for
merly used as a porch for the IL
brary was torn down and replaced
with a concrete and rock porch
which adds greatly to the appear
ance of the building. The windows
were screened, the kitchenette was
equipped, shrubs, flowers, and ever
greens were planted, and the IL
brary was painted.
Another club, in 'FishersVllle,
Augusta county, took as its COM
munity project the building of re-
tanning wall on the school ground
so that the school busses could
come inside the grounds instead OF
letting the children out on the high
way. Gravel was provided for the
space where the busses were park
ed. The club then paid for hedge
that was planted along the retain
ing wall to beautify the front yard
of the school, for gravel placed
around the entrance to the building,
and for grass seed. A number OF
old brick walks that were danger
GUS for the children to walk on |
were replaced with gravel walks. |
Shrubs and trees were planted in |
the yard. In all, the club has spent |
S11O on the school grounds and
much time and effort.
Several other home demonstration
clubs report such accomplishments
as getting the road to the school
repaired, helping establish the hot
lunch system, making Fairgrounds
out of rough areas, or eQuipping the
with apparatus like
slide boards and swings, and con-
tributing to the cost of putting run
ming water in the school.
In Brunswick county the Edger-
ton Club undertook to help set out
trees along it's main highway. A
county cemetery was taken care Of
by members of the Beulah Club, in
Henrico county. The women put
gravel on the walks and cut the
grass.

LOCAL HEROES

There is something refreshing,
pleasing, compromising in the ans
wers received in a Missouri girls
school to the question, would you
marry Col. Lindbergh if you had a
chances"
Col. Lindbergh is a hero Of world
renown. Kings, presidents, parlia-
ments and congresses have We'd with
one another in honoring him. He has
a collection of foreign and domestic
medals that would fill several bas-
kets. He is young and amiable and

his glory.

Yet out of the $50 girls 105 gave
negative replies to the question. But
the most interesting and significant
part of it was that GO of them had
heroes" of their own whom they
preferred to Lindbergh. They were
in love with these threescore I'M
known young men, and for that rea=
son considered them greater than
Lindbergh. All the publicity, photo
graphy, popularity, fortune and fame
that would naturally fall to Lind
bergh's bride did not weigh as much
with them as the love and pride they
had in John, Tom and Dick who
were Just regular fellows in an Or
binary way.
Which means that the commonest
and most obscure among us may
possess that which is beyond the
reach of the greatest of this earth.
When King Louis XVI and his
queen, Marie Antoinette were cap
tured in a distant little town on
their fight from Paris they were
held at night in the grocery store of
the towns mayor, a Mr.Sausse. The
grocer proving obdurate to offers
and threats the queen made a per-
sonal and desperate appeal for re-
lease to Mrs. Sausse, "as a woman,
as wife, as mother and as queen"
But the grocer's wife was unyield-
ing. She knew if Sausse let them go
he would pay for it dearly. She
agreed with Marie Atoinette that
woman should consider her hus-
bands welfare. "YOu," she said,
think of the king; I am thinking OF
Mr.. Sausse."

that Sandino committed murder
