working of most of the muscles in
the body. If one set of muscles is
weak, there is considerable strain
put on another set, in an effort to
hold the body in an erect position;
gravity then pulls unequally and
faulty posture results.
The first thing the pupil should
learn is complete relaxation through
face and back floating, so the body
will fall into its natural physiolog-
ical position. The arm stroke used
in the breast stroke and back crawl
would be useful in helping to cure
round shoulders, because they
stretch the muscles on front of the
chest, and strengthen the muscles of
the neck and upper back.
So many of our daily activities
are performed with the arms reach
ing in front of the body or with the
head and shoulders inclined forward
that the upper back muscles become
fatigued and unless they are very
strong we have to constantly remind
ourselves to straighten up, so these
would also be beneficial to
normal healthy people in order that
they may remain so. If we neglect
a condition of Kyphosis and allow
the lungs to remain in a more or
less contracted state, and the heart,
stomach and liver to remain crowd
ed against each other, it is not fair
to expect them to function properly
and it will not be surprising if you
have less vitality and do not feel as
well as you should.

The attention of all poultry rails

Tuesday afternoon. June %, at two
O'clock, at the farm of Charles

The two different methods of vac

a large number of poultrymen in
this section of the State will take
advantage of this opportunity to
learn more about this phase of the

Swimming has never been used to
any great extent, in connection with
orthopedic work; not because it is
considered of no value, but because
so little is known of its specific pos
sibilities in this line.
Of course it is impossible to say
just how much can be accomplished
through the use of swimming
strokes and exercises in the water,
until after a great deal of expert
mental work has been done; but
from the little that is known it
seems as though the possibilities are
almost unlimited.
Some tests have been conducted
showing in the after care of infan-
tile paralysis, it has been found to
be of great value as an agent in re-
storing muscle strength and control
and many doctors today are recon-
mending it very highly. The individ-
ual is an element in which COM
plete relaxation is possible because
the pull of gravity has been lessen
ed. This, naturally, enables the in
dividual to give more thought in at
tention to the actual movements
than would be possible under aver
age conditions. In such work it is
absolutely necessary that it be con-
Quoted under the direction of a doc

CORN IS GROWN
ATLITTLEPROFIT
County Agent Snyder Is
Conducting What Might
Be Called A County In
ter-Club Corn Project.

Corn is one of the most widely
grown crops in Sussex county, yet
on many of our farms it is grown
at little profit and often at a loss.
1t is grown on 4475 of our 1894
farms and according to the 1890
census the crop was valued at ST.
75O,O00.OO.
Realizing that little more inter
est should be given this crop, the
various civic clubs of Sussex are
cooperating with County Agent C.
R. Snyder in conducting what might
be called a County Inter-Club Corn
Project. The clubs aiding in this
work are the Selbyville, Georgetown,
Lewes, Milford and Laurel Rotary
Clubs and the Kiwansis Clubs at
Seaford and Rehoboth. Each of these
clubs purchased one bushel of seed
corn through the University of Del
aware and have distributed this corn
TO the following farmers:
VIM. Mills, Thos. E. Mills, VIM.
Hammond and Edward Clayville of
Milford.
Ed. Thompson, Bailey Maull and
7. C. Donovan, of Rehoboth.
VIM. Ritter, Herman Short, John
Wilson and Robert White of Lewes.
Martin Carey, Chas. Ellingsworth,
Harvey Penuel and Paul Swain of
Georgetown.
Chester McCabe, Herman Evans,
D. H. Derrickson and Horace Will
ley of Selbyville.
Avery Owens, Reese Covey, Robt.
Evans, Brooks Dolby, Glen Givens,
Randall Thompson, Arthur Lingo
and Chas. G. West of Laurel.
Herman Ockles, Chas. Hill, Rich
ard Hill, Fred Fritz, Carlton James
and Virgil Waller of Seaford.
Each of these men will keep a
cost account of this crop so that
at the end of the season, we should
get some idea as to what it costs
us to grow bushel of corn in the
county, something that very few of
our farmers know. Some of the
clubs intend to give a prize to the
one who grew the most corn per
acre.
Later it is hoped to have a Field
Day of all the clubs and those who
co-operated in this project, at which
time the various yields will be an
nounced and the prizes awarded.
At the present time all of this
corn has been planted and is doing
as we'll as can be expected when we
consider the cool weather which we
have had.

what it really costs to bring world

where each individual by the simple
asking could be restored to friend
ly relation with God.
We have to thank Luke for the
story as we now have it, and his de-
scription of the scenes of agony
Jesus in Gethsemane and His death
upon the Cross of Calvary, should
melt the most stubborn heart and
cause all the people of the earth to
become followers of the meek and
lOwly Nazerene.
The ascended Saviour means much
to the world when people stop to
think.
Paul says in the Golden Text, 1t
is Christ Jesus that died. Yea rather
that was raised from the dead, Who
is at the right hand of God, Who al
so maketh intercession for us. Ro-

Without the ascension of Christ
and His intercession with God, our
Father, we would be denied an ad-
mission to the realms Of eternal
glory.
The morning sermon of the pas
tor was a fine one. To the shut-ins
and those who were not present let

morning service, was also used. The

part of the 22nd verse, "The fruit of
the Spirit is Love-"
To the shut-ins let the writer give
you the remainder of the verse from
which the text was taken, "Joy,
peace, long suffering, gentleness,
goodness and faith, as the preacher
used all these in his sermon, which
we wish, all could have heard. Take

Jesus Risen and Ascended" was
the title of the lesson which should
and did attract the rapt attention of
the scholars present.
Let the writer in brief way
comment on the lesson from his
point of view. Luke's gospel treats
in a very Intelligent way the doings
and sayings of Jesus throughout His
ministry-and we must depend on
the story as told by Luke to get as
much information as we now have.
Matthew, Mark and John chronicles
many of the incidents in the life of
the Master, but we must depend
upon the Apostle Luke for the story,
though not as full, and complete as
we would like to have it. The les
sons for several weeks have been of
that nature that should bear heavily
on the minds and hearts of the peo-
pie of the world today and cause
them to reflect and not bring any
reproach on the name of Him who
has done so much for the redemp-
tion of the world from sin.

Mad Dogs
Our people were very much ex-
cited, when on Tuesday night of last
week a report was spread broadcast
that one of our citizens dogs had
suddenly gone mad.
News of this kind spread at once
and the people vacated the stores
and streets and found safe haven
within their own doors.
A gentleman passing down Main
street said he was unable to meet a
single person from one end of the
street to the other. Shutters were
generally closed and the people
were afraid to venture out; only one
little head peeped out and asked the
question, Mister, have you seen the
dog?
Tuesday night, Hiawatha Council,
No. 6, D. of P, met in the Red Mems
Hall, and many of the ladies of the
town were present and engaged in
the work of the council. When some
one brought the news that dog had
run mad and was roaming at large,
this was enough to stop the pro-
ceedings of the, order and each one
began to make preparations to leave
for home. Yet all of them were
afraid to go. When all of them had
gathered near the front, door and
were pondering over which should
make the first attempt to go,
young lady who is full of mischief,
yelled in loud. voice, Look at that
dog" That was enough, and it is
said some of the ladies climbed the
stairs without counting the steps,
until all were back in the hall once
more.
The second attempt was more sue
cessful. One lady made for the mid
die of the street and the way she
went down that "hoss channel" was
something to be reckoned with.
However she arrived home safe and
sound, but very much exhausted.
Others were carried home in auto
mobiles. While few that, were left,
made very quick time until they had
reached safe harbor.
The scare was so great that some
of the ladies nerves have not be-
come in a settled condition yet.
Next day the writer was standing
near his home when small boy
came along and knowing that he
lived near where the owner of the
dog resided, asked him if he knew
anything about the mad dog. The
boy stopped suddenly. and looking
up with a questioned face, said in
distainful way-the dog isn't mad.
He was out in the field when snake
bit him and caused him to have
running fit. Everybody is saying that
the dog is mad. 1t "aint" so. And
walking on down the street the boy
continued to humble to himself-the
dog "aint" mad. However, the Ow-
ner of the dog has him strongly
chained and will see what the fu-
ti1ra will dnVdlOn
