BIG Prices for Tiny Shrines

AS two small medieval shrines
were taken quite casually into a
London auction room recently the
owner. Mai. Fl. Chase Meredith,
thought that if they brought $1,000
each he would be fortunate One
Of them, however, which had been in
the old abbey of Malmsbury, drew
an exciting opening bid of $1,000
and was eventually sold to a Paris
buyer for $4,000 The other, asso-
ciated with Croyland abbey, went to
an English collector for $4,000.
Each shrine measured only u
inches long and 10 inches high.

WILMINGTON AUTO SHOW
18th Annual Affair Starts Febru-

airy 22 at Hotel DUPONT Biltmore
The eighteenth annual Automo-
bile Show will be held in the Gold
Ballroom of the DUPONT Biltmore
Hotel from February 22nd to Feb
ruary 9th, 1882. The Delaware
Motor Trades Association, spon-
sors, are planning on better show
this year than any previously held.
The following members of the
Trade Association have been APP
pointed chairmen of the various
committees: H. F. Gallagher, Har-
ry Mailman, F. o. Taylor, A. T.
Richardson, and Samuel Keil. All
members of the Association are
displaying, and 1882 models of
practically all makes will be on ex-
hibition. This Annual Automobile
Show in Wilmington is eagerly
awaited by the motoring public, as
it gives prospective purchasers an
opportunity to make their compar-
isons under ideal conditions. There
will be no charge for admission
and a well known orchestra has
been engaged to entertain with
musical selections. This should re-
suit in a goodly attendance, and,
we hope, start the desire to replace
the "old bus" with one of the lat
est examples of modern motor car
manufacture.

First Apple Dumping

1t is said to have been George
III who asked how the apple got
inside the dumping. Here, then, is
the true story of its origin, as re-
lated in Norfolk. 1t goes like this
Once upon a time there was a
worthy Norfolk farmer who had a
pretty Norfolk wife. He compared
her cheeks with apples. He as
serted fondly that he would like
to eat them. so you SHALL" re-
piled the wife. wait until tomor-
row." And when the morrow came
she set before him the father of all
apple dumplings. SO the farmer
laughed hugely and gave the rosy
rogue a groat with which to buy
ribbons at the next fair.

School being accepted and ready to
be turned over to the local school
trustees for occupancy. The State
Board considered a report on the
Demonstration School located at
Georgetown, which has now been
in operation more than year and
a half, the report being largely the
reactions of the State supervisors,
superintendent and principals of
the State schools who visited the
school during the year. The opin-
ion differed in many respects, all
agreeing that both favorable and
unfavorable impressions were
made upon them in the various
rooms visited which include the
first six grades of the Georgetown
school. The discussion on the
Demonstration School will be TAX
en- up at the adjourned meeting
next week. A report was made on
a notice of the holding of CONSOLE
dation elections with DUPONT to
consolidate with Montchanin and
Montchanin with DUPONT in New
Castle county. The site for the
new school at Delaware City was
agreed upon by the board. A re-
port was also made to the board
for information of the sex, pre-
paration, experience, certification
and salaries of teachers in Della
ware.

Foreign Service

The United States foreign service
divides its activities roughly into
three main categories- protective,
advisory and administrative. The
protective function safeguards citi-
zens and their legitimate interests
in all privileges and rights provided
by treaty or conceded by usage. The
advisory functions of the foreign
service are designed primarily for
the benefit of the government Of the
United States, which constantly re
quires information from all parts
Of the world for its guidance in the
conduct Of its foreign relations. The
third main division of the duties
laid upon the foreign service is the
administration abroad of American
laws.
