that Mr.. Edison had in the world

pages as long as the world shall

Delaware Colony At StOckley
Several of our citizens motoreC
to Stockley on Saturday and at
tended the annual fall pound party
held at that point.
They spoke in the highest terms
of the condition of the buildings on
the farm and the condition of the
inmates who find a comfortable
home there.
They witnessed play, pied Pip
er of Hamlin," rendered by the fee
bie-minded people of the institution.
They say it was remarkable to see
with what precision they went
through with the different parts of
the play.
1t is well that the State of Della
ware has such an institution, where
: those people whose minds have be-
come clouded can be taught so many
/ useful things.
The income from the farm shows
that some master hand is at the
helm. The amount of produce and
fruit raised was large and will
greatly help in reducing the eXpen-
ses of keeping the Colony in pros
! porous condition.

p, II. 4, Halloween Supper
On the evening of October 2S, the
Parent-Teacher Association of Ell
lendale, is preparing a supper which
will eclipse anything that has been
served of late. o.
The menu will consist of baked
chicken, with filing, mashed pota-
toes, sweet potatoes, gravy, peas,
pickles, bread, butter, coffee and
pie.
For a meal of this class the
charge will be only so cents. Can
you beat it?
This is really cheaper then you
can prepare supper in your own
home, of so many kinds of things to
eat.
After the supper is over a mas
querade party will be given. All Ia
dies. girls, men and boys who will
attend, please come fully masked.
This is when the fun will begin.
Remember this supper is under
the auspices of the ladies compOs-

the receipts will go for the better
ment of the public schools.
Everybody invited. Everybody
come and make the receipts as
heavy as possible.
