L ' what in evening accessories to
wear with those very new. very if
ferent Edwardian period evening
dresses? (And don't women look
dressed up and really elegant in

bracelet strap.
VelvetS are new to go with vel
vet dresses. But still smart are
seed pearls, crepes and satins. Es-
pecially so with marcasite or jewel
studded frames.
JeaUelry
Dress necklines are higher. So
you may not want a necklace. In
stead, wear an ensemble of ear
rings, bracelet and clip Or brooch.
It's new to wear your clip at the
back of the decolletage. And jew
elry must be brilliant with
rhinestones or jewel-colored stones.
Shoes
Sandals and pumpS-pumpS and
sandals. That's the rhythm of
fashionable feet. You can have
them as plain as plain their
color their only trimmings or
dressed up a bit-the pumps with
delicate cut-outs and the sandals
with pipings of silver or gold.
Sometimes they combine two fab
RIGS. Then when you have them
dyed, you get an interesting two
tone effect.

dresses new. But correct only
when your dress is one of the new

PICK.UPS


Ellen Sipple surely is giving
Townsend Parvis a run for his po-
sition as drummer in the school or
chestra.
What a sleepy, shame-faced crowd
the Milford boys were the morning
after the Cambridge game. We
would suggest that when the class
of 'S2 are scattering their bounty in
the form of parting gifts at gradu-
alton time they really should leave
the school a blue book or COM
plete set Of road maps for future
bus drivers.
1t was during the game between
the Juniors and Seniors last Mon
day that everyone in the audience
was astonished to see, at the begin
ming of the second quarter that
there were only three Seniors play
ing against the Junior team. Never
theless the problem was solved only
a few seconds after. when Seth
Baker and Eugene Eisenbrey came
bounding out from behind the cur
tain. Being engaged in mapping out
some plays by which they could
overcome the Juniors, they had for
gotten that the intermission be-
tween quarters only lasted one min
ute.

Library Report For
February

While fewer books were circulat-
ed through the School Library than
last month, the librarian has been
kept busy looking for information
along many lines of work.
The number of books borrowed,
from School Library, AL; Free Pub
lie Library, 60, and the State Tray
cling Library, 4S, making a total Of
$40 books borrowed during the
month. OF this number 168 were
non-fiction and 381 fiction. This is
an increase over February last year
of 200 books. This number does not
include the books borrowed for ov-
ernight; these are books used for
reference and do not leave the Ii
brary until the close of the last
period, to be returned before first
period next morning. Neither does
this include the books borrowed for
certain study periods during the
day. One book was used in this way
during two weeks of the month by
twenty-three pupils.
Our magazine rack is much inn
proved by the appearance of Har-
per's Magazine, Review of Reviews,

KENT COUNTY
INSTITUTE HELD
AT SMYRNA
J. Ralph McIlvaine Of
Magnolia New President

The annual meeting of the Kent
County Educational Association was
held in Smyrna last Friday. The
meeting was arranged and presided
over by the president, George
Wright, of Smyrna.
The high spot of the day, from an
educational point of view, was the
address of DR.. Edwin w. Adams, As
sociate Superintendent of Schools of
Philadelphia. His theme, Education
and the Good Life" was particular
ly appropriate for these troublesome
times.
DR.. Adams paid glowing tribute
to the effectiveness of school in
struction in the preparation for
daily life when he said, For more
than 140 years our government
structure has existed without a ma
jor change. In this period there
have been great changes in all
other governments. Does this not
show, more emphaticalIy than by
any other method, that the members
of our profession have played their
parts capably?"
Immediately following the address
of DR.. Adams, the general meeting
was adjourned for sectional or
group meetings.
The social event of the day was
the Annual Banquet from -: Is un-
til 1:45 This dinner was prepared
and served by the Century Club of
Smyrna in Municipal Hall.
The afternoon session was opened
by a concert by the Dover Junior
Orchestra, under the direction of
Mr.. j.. w. McFadden. The music was
received very favorably by the tea
chers. aa
Immediately following this special
entertainment feature, was an. ad-
dress by DR.. Paul E. Ellsworth,
President of Washington College at.
Chestertown, Maryland. DR.. Tits
worth chose as his subject, "Coordi-
nators." DR.. Ellsworth painted the
modern teacher as a coordinator,
responsible for reconstructing out of
the odds and ends of our present ex-
istence new civilization.
The last speaker of the day was
Mr.. Harry w. Mock, of the Personnel
Division of the DUPONT Company.
His topic, Essentials of Success"
was especially well received consid-
ering the lateness of the day and the
fact that the audience had been
through rather strenuous session.
Following this talk was the an
nual business meeting. The follow
ing officers were elected: President,
]. Ralph McIlvaine of Magnolia;
vice president, F. w. Mick, of Fred
erica; secretary, Adele Evans of
Dover.

MUSICALLFE
OF RALPH REED
Believe 1t Or Not

I'm going around interviewing all
the musicians in Milford and the big
trouble is, can't interview myself" 4"
On hearing Ralph Reed make this
complaint we decide to print this
imaginary interview with him even
if he doesn't know anything about
it.
We approached the Honorable Mr..
Ralph Reed in his music room which
is filled with all sorts of musical in
struments, some of them we'll
known, some of them he invented
himself.
when did you first decide that
you wanted TO make music your life
work." is our first question.
"Ahem-well, when l was coming
over on the boat"
"Ah, then you are not a native
of American
"Oh, yes, you see l was coming
over from Cedar Beach to Slaughter
Beach in rowbOat."
"Did you have any trouble getting
started at your prOfession?" We in
quired next.
Eyes, yes, indeed. Irving Berlin did
everything he could to ruin me. He
was afraid 1 would run him out and
take his place."
"How interesting And now-tell
us something of your life as a musi-
cian."
"Well, you see, got my start in
Brandon City, Canada, playing sec
ond cornet with the Brandon City
Band. Then got job with the cir
Gus" we smile.
"NOt as a freak but as a player. l
played with the circus for some time
and then l wandered to New York to
Join Victor Herbert. Why, helped
him write his "Babes in Toyland."
Finally l got together a band of
my own, The Connecticut Yankees
After some years let Rudy Vallee
have the boys, and l came back
home to retire.
"What a marvellous life you have
led, you've had years and years of
experience. How old are you, any
way?"
.'Seventeen,
"Who are your favorite compos-
ers?"
"Well, now / don't know. I like
Beethoven right we'll but Duke FL
lington's pretty good too"
"And your favorite music?
81 guess like Duke EllingtOn's
"Meserare" and Verda's MOOD Indi-
so" about the best Of all"

Musing Of A Chorus Girl

ar. U. Wilde?" did you say? mo"
but ask us, "are you stiff? Now
you've hit the nail on the head for
all ten of us are as stiff as we can
be. Reducing to the tune Of Bend
Down Sister" surely doesn't agree
with us, especially as we have to
climb the steps at school every
day. You should hear the means and
groans from our Bend Down Sister"
girls. But we still have one COM
fOrter and that is Mrs. Wheeler who
says, mo one has ever died from
this chorus and many have done 1t
before you" AS you see we are liv-
ing in hopes that we will not be the
first ones. In spite of all our stiff
ness we chorus girls are having
great time practicing with our jolly
coach, Mrs. Wheeler. A few Of us
have had the pleasure of being in
her chOruses before and we hope
this will not be the last one.
There are other chOruses in the
play which are very good and will
be much enjoyed by all. They are the
Cooking Girls" Garland Girls"
and the Grown Up" chorus. This
will be especially enjoyed. Come and
learn why you should play golf. Sew
eral selections are given by them.

CiUicS Class Haze
NelOs Topics As
Part Of Class Work

The Ciyics class has been having
news topics. Mr.. Boston thinks that
students should be up to date on
things Of world interest. Due to the
fact that the civics class has not
responded any too well on the news
of the days. He has devoted Fridays
to news discussion. Each member of
the class brings a newspaper to
class with him that he has read.
The first part of the period is given
to reports. Before this period is
ended Mr.. Boston presents ten
questions. They are based on news
items of the past week. Each stu
dent is required to keep himself
posted during the week with the i'm
portant questions of the day. 1t is
supposed that each student will
want to keep himself informed. The
class members through this work
will keep themselves well posted on
the things that are going on and
will be able to talk intelligently on
any of them.

WHO'S Who OF
SENIOR CLASS
Introducing Loretta Ber'
ridge

Loretta Berridge has been with
our class since she was in the fourth
grade, before that she lived in Sea-
ford. She has brown hair which she
wears behind her ears in long bob,
brown eyes, and is just about five
feet tall, almost, but not quite. She
will be eighteen in April.
Loretta takes the commercial
course with Home Economics
thrown in. In fact she is one Of the
few girls who are taking third year
Home Economics. She would like to
go to Delaware and take the course
in Home Economics there. She is
pretty good at sewing, too, you
should see the beautiful little dress
es she makes. They are the envy Of
all the girls.
Loretta works as usher in the
Plaza, and looks cute, too, in her
new uniform. Notice it the next time
you go to the movies; it's blue and
egg-shell.
Loretta is rather fond of red
heads. Hilda Calhoun, one of her
best girl-fIiends, is one, and so is
Mary Watkins. AS for boys, if you
want to see Loretta blush, just ask
about that boy with the curly red
hair who sleeps in the Chronicle Of
flee. He furnishes her with paper,
which is, we might say, much more
practical than flowers and candy -
when you're a Senior, anyhow.
The other day when we were try
ing to decide when the World War
started, Loretta said she was sure it
began in 1914, because that was the
year she was born, and she remem-
bered! Some memory.
