May Day as date of working class
struggle originated in this city in
1886.

The resolution calls on every
workers organization to participate
in the May Day demonstration as
an organized body under its own
banner, slogans and demands. 1t
must also organize its own defense
corps.
When the May Day Committee
elected by the united front confer

the commissioner answered, "If you
are looking for trouble, we'll have
the police, the militia, and if neces-
sary the army"
The workers are determined TO
strike and demonstrate despite all
threats. March 6 was also pre-
coded by raids, many arrests, and
threats in Chicago.

FOR MOTHER,S DAY

Mothers day ought to be an occa-
sion of practical use as well as af-
fectionate feeling, i'll these times
when family government is weak.
The Old-time mother used to quiet
her discontented children by the
sage remark, Mother knows best. "
Such an utterance is much laughed
at in many families now, where the
motto is. the children know best
They claim to be more in touch with
modern life, and TO have learned
many things their parents do not
know.
However. when women have been
through the experience of school
and work and marriage and parent
hood, they have learned more of the
world than their children can pos
sibly know. They can see real perils
that the young people can not
imagine. Also they see rewards that
come from patient obedience and
honest industry and studious habits,
which the young people do not al
ways understand
After passing through a period of
revolt i'll early youth, when young
people think they know much more
than their elders, they come some
years later to perception that their
mothers had a much better compre-
hension of their problems than the
sons and daughters did. They look
back with new appreciation to the
good judgment, the substantial COM
mon sense, the higher wisdom of the
counsel their mothers gave them.
They very rarely regret having
followed that advice. Frequently
hey regret, often very bitterly, when
hey rejected it. Such disregard !
brought pain to the affectionate |
hearts of the women who would |
lave given their lives for them, and |
{ was apt to have very unfortunate |
If young people could |
,nly learn from past experience,
hey would appreciate the sage wis
lom of the training their mothers
rave them, and would adhere to the
IDEAS that they endeavored to incul-
ate.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE ANNIVER-
SARY

The United States has had lC
years of complete woman suffrage
The 18th amendment went into ef-
feet on August 26, 1920, and it's first
decade will be enthusiastically cele-
brated.
The first traces of this movement
appeared in Europe during the
French revolution in the latter part
of the 18th century. Such agitation
began just about 10 years ago in
this country. The first considerable
success was gained when the state
of Wyoming granted full suffrage to
the sex in 1869, and gradually other
states and the entire nation fol-
lowed.
The dreadful fears of results en-
tertained by alarmists have not been
realized. 1t was often said that
homes would be wrecked by pOliti-
cal discussions, that women would
be so absorbed in politics that they
would not make their families COM
Portable, that they would be coars-
ened and corrupted by the bad asso-
Citations of politics. Such assertions
appear ridiculous today, and no ten
dency in that direction is discern
ible
On the other hand, the more ar
dent hopes entertained by suffrage
advocates could hardly be said to
have been realized. The idea that
the nobler ideals of women were at
once going to make great changes
in politics has not been fulfilled.
Women think very much like men
on politics. The intelligent families
send intelligent women voters to the
polls, and the ignorant families send
ignorant wives and daughters there. |
The next result is not strikingly diff |
ficult from conditions existing be-
fore.
The main reason for granting suf-
frage was that the women wanted it. |
II would be generally admitted now,
that if they wanted it they had a
right to have it, regardless whether
results were good or bad Their in
experience of politics has led to un-
fortunate results in some cases, yet
hese have been more than offset by
he interest women have taken in
higher ideals of political life.

Milford, Friday, May 8, 1880

WITH THIS ISSUE of the Milford
Chronicle, the newspaper enters
upon a new era of service to the
business interests and residents of
Milford and lower Delaware. The
present issue is the first to be print
ed on our new Duplex newspaper
press which prints from the rolls
and at a speed which assures better
service for our patrons in the fu-
ture The new press prints and folds
ready for mailing a total of $500
newspapers an hour, and does away
with much handling of the papers
WHICH was necessary while a tlatbed
press and separate folder was in
use. The press is a web perfecting
type, prints directly from Il large
roll of paper and delivers ready for
use. The machine is the only roll
newspaper press in Delaware out
side of the city of Wilmington. and
is the. largest one on the Del-Mar-
Va peninsula. Presses of the same
make are located at Salisbury, Oman
cock, and Easton, but they are
smaller and run at a slower speed.
The installation Of the new press
has made it necessary to change the
size of the Chronicle somewhat; but
we believe that the shorter column
length will appeal to the readers
once they have become accustomed
to the new Chronicle. An entirely
lew first page makeup is noticeable
with this issue, and each succeeding
issue will find very radical changes
in the makeup of the Chronicle. 1t
is the hope and aim of the publishers
to getaway from the same general
makeup each issue, and we hope that
the new plan will prove pleasing to
cur thousands of readers. We do
not expect to make the present issue
one hundred per cent perfect in our
new makeup plans for many me-
chanical difficulties have had to be
overcome in making the change this
week. With each succeeding issue,
however, we hope to improve on the .
general appearance and attractive
ness of the Chronicle. With this
promise we offer the bigger and bet
ter Chronicle for your approval.

THE MOTHERLY NATURE

In these days when there is so
much crime and dishonesty, it is
easy to become pessimistic about
human nature. 1t is a satisfaction
to look at those sides of personality
that present nobler aspect. Moth
er's day calls our attention to per-
haps the finest of these better
phases of life.
When we see how many harmful
people there are in the world, it is
difficult to believe that all these
felix's had mothers who tried to make
good people out of them. Yet this is
almost invariably the case. Even if
a woman has lived a mistaken life,
she wants her children to be better
than she is. The best side of her
nature shines through here. She
will make generous sacrifices for
them, and her counsel is usually
wise.
The ordinary woman rises to a
fine height in this respect. She con-
stantly gives up her desires for the
children's welfare. She forsakes
pleasures for which she longed, she
denies herself comforts that once
seemed essential, that the children
can have a better chance. She labors
long hours for them, often en-
feebling herself by this prolonged
drudgery.
1t is one of the tragedies of life,
that so frequently the children
have little or no appreciation of all
this sacrifice and service. They look
at it as something to which they are
entitled, that belongs to them as a
natural right, and for which no spe-
cial gratitude is called.
Frequently they go beyond that, |
and are cross and irritable when |
heir mothers ask some little service !
1r offer some counsel. In later life |
hey will deeply regret this lack of |
and affection. The time
o show appreciation of every living
mother is now, while she is with her
children. Some day it will be for
.ver too late in this world.

That Little herring best known
to the world by its other name
sardine-is a favorite delicacy with
the American public. Annually mil
lions of the small siiVery salt water
fish arrive from Maine to play
leading roles upon the family table,
The person who is genuinely
fond of Welsh rarebits never tires
of them, it is said.
This is not the place to dispute
the truth of that assertion, but
since suggestions for new dishes
are always in order, l am going
to give a recipe for sardine rare-i
bit. Not one woman in ten, ex-l
pect, knows this delightful rarebitI
variation. Therefore / am particu-
larly pleased to suggest it.
Mix two tablespoons of melted
butter with half a pound of cheese
grated or broken into bits. Still
constantly while it melts, then add
gradually one egg beaten and di-
luted with 2-3 Of a cup of cream,
Stir until smooth. Season witt
paprika, a small pinch of salt, and
a few drops of tabasco sauce. Drain
a box of Maine sardines. Broil
them on slices of toast. Pour over
them the hot rarebit. Serve them
Immediately.

FOLKS WHO ARE BORED

Some folks have spent so much of
their time pursuing pleasures that
nothing seems interesting to them.
A writer tells in the Christian Cen
tury of how a young business man
talked of the crowd he chummed
with.
They had danced, played cards, at
tended shows, gone on outings, un-
til they felt they had exhausted all
ways of having a good time. There
are many such folks in society Cir
cles, perhaps some in Milford. What
can such ones do to recover an in
terest in life?
The philosophers tell us that we
do not find happiness by aiming di-
rectly at it. Satisfaction comes from
doing things well. Many people find
it in their work. Many find it in
music, reading, gardening, or some
athletic sport. Doing things for
other people brings satisfaction for
many. Lives spent mainly in the
search for fun are apt to turn out
pretty dull.

DEVELOPING INDUSTRIES

Many communities are making
very progressive gains, by the effort
to increase the prosperity of the in
dustries they already have. They
would like to obtain new ones, but
they consider it of the first import
apce to develop existing enterprises.
They reach out through various
advertising plans, to draw retail
trade from greater distances. They
study agricultural possibilities, they
lend money to young farmers in
nearby villages, and give instruc-
tion in scientific farm methods, and
in so doing they often succeed in
the agricultural production
Of the district. They encourage
their own business concerns to take
on new lines of production, and their
cwn young men to start manufac-
turing concerns. There are many
development possibilities in Milford
and vicinity that have not yet been
realized.
Milford chronicle., 1930-05-09
INDUSTRIAL WEAR AND TEAR

American industry, in order to b,
efficient and in the long run sue
cessful, has to be careful to avoiC
undue wear and tear. Our industry
has always realized the necessity O.
care for the physical outfit, but il
has been slower to give equal care t.
that far more vital element of hu.
man equipment.
If factory machine wore out in
five years when it should last ten
years, the person responsible would
be blamed and perhaps discharged
Abnormal human wear and tear is
not always so soon recognized.
The most precious factor in the
operation of industry, is its human
| element. 1t can never be considered
mere machine. 1t is an expression
Of individual personality, the most
precious thing in the world. Unfor-
tunately human bodies are bound to
wear out some time, due to our frail
mortality They will ofen wear out
faster when person sits around idle
than when he is doing active work.
But the conditions of labor ought to
be such that our human bodies do
not wear out abnOrmally fast.
Great improvements have been
made in American working customs
during recent years. The common
reduction of hours of labor did very
much to prevent undue wear and
tear. The old working hours were
generally too long. They took too
much out of the working force. SINH
larly working places should have
good ventilation, sanitary arrange
ments, and various comforts.
Progressive concerns realize that
when their employees are made com
Portable, they do more work, feel
more loyal, and more intelligent peo-
pie can be secured. In the long run
it is a destructive policy to wear out
our human machinery before it's
time. Putting children to work at
a too early age is one of the worst !
phases of industrial wear and tear.
Our country must be even more |
careful of its human factor than of
it's inanimate machines.

DEVELOPMENTS OF THE past
few weeks would seem to Indicate a
focusing of local opinion on the Mil
ford postoffice situation. Friends of
the several candidates have become
active and hopes are entertained that
an appointment will be made soon.
Four applicants took the examina-
tions for the Milford postoffice.
They are William r. Murphey, James
p. Pierce, Harry b. Thaw, and Geo.
Roy Bennett. Wilbert Joseph, as
sistant postmaster here for several
years is an applicant as is Mark L.
Davis, present postmaster. These
two men claim that it is not neces-
sary for them to take the eXamina-
ton. It has become generally no
ticeable that sentiment favorable to
the reappointment of Postmaster
Davis seems to have developed dur
ing the past week, but the other can
didates have not ceased in their eff
forts to land the job.

MILFORD HAS SHOWN the larg-
est percentage of gain of any Della
ware town so far announced by
former Governor Denney, Delaware
census enumeratOr. The count just
completed shows a total population
here OF 3,716, which is a gain Of
1913 over that of 1920. Notwith-
standing this wonderful increase in
population, local citizens are disap-
pointed at the result of the new
count A chamber of commerce
tabulation made less than two years
ago showed the Milford population
approximately 1920. The Secretary
OF the Chamber of Commerce is au-
thority for the statement that the
count at that time was carefully
checked. 1t is certain that Milford
has not lost in population during the
past two years. Whether the pres
Cnt count is incomplete, or rather
the count made unofficially by the
Chamber of Commerce was in error
is not definitely knOwn-but the
the vast difference in the count Ger
tainly should create a doubt as to
the correctness of one of them. The
census authorities should check the
present count against the local
Chamber of Commerce count which
we understand is on file at the local
Office here.
