operation With Wilmington
Wholesalers at Dover
"GET-ACQUAINTED" TOUR

Hearty cooperation was pledged
by Kent county business men
Thursday night at the dinner given
in the Hotel Richardson in their
honor by Wilmington visitors,
members of the Good Will Trade
Trip. The banquet was the culmi-
mating point of the expedition,
which began Thursday afternoon
at the DUPONT Biltmore, Whining
ton, at 1.2O o'clock. Between
eighty and eighty-five were at the
banquet, thirty-five being in the
visiting party. George A. Casey,
chairman of the trade extension
committee of the Wholesale Section
of the Chamber of Commerce, act
ed as POSTMASTER. Mr. Casey call
ed upon City Manager L. D. Shank,
of Dover, and secretary Of the Do
yer Chamber of Commerce, as the
first speaker. Mr.. Shank served as
the representative of Mayor J.Wal-
lace Woodford, who was attending
the political rally in Wilmington.
He offered the heartiest greetings
of Dover and hoped the visitors
been well received. He told of Do
ver's improvements and of the
work done in the water and power
plants to the amount of three
quarters of million dollars. Other
speakers included George D. Hill,
president of the Dover Chamber of
Commerce; Captain William Berl,
Jr., chairman of the wholesale Sec
tion of the Chamber of Commerce;
Frank c. Bancroft, president of the
Dover Rotary Club; Col. John P.
LeFevre, of Dover; c. w. Hardesty,
Dover merchant; and the Rev. R.
H. McDade, pastor of Newport M.
E.Church; Gerrish Gassaway, man
ager of the Chamber of Commerce,
Wilmington; and William N. Cam,
former president of City Council,
President I. d. Finkelstein, of the
Wilmington Chamber of Commerce,
commented on City Manager
Shank's report, and said the city
manager type was a satisfactory
form of government, and that VIII
mington should have a city man
ager. Mr.. McDade concluded the
speaking with humorous speech,
ending with some very serious
thought. His theme was three
fold: unconscious ineficiency; con-
scious ineffi :ciency; conscious eff
ficiency. The trip was the first to
be made for some time, and it is
expected it will be followed by 9th
ers. The primary idea was to get
acquainted with the Dover mer-
chants.

Boys Mixed Up at Birth
May Get Right Parents

Berlin.-A mothers recognition
of familiar features of a son twelve
years old may restore to her her
rightful boy in place of the child
given her by mistake at the time
of his birth.
Frau Marie DOnk of Gladbach,
Germany. has a suit on file to force
Frau Mathilda Beuth to exchange
sons born II years ago in a mater
nifty clinic. The prospects for the
exchange are favorable. but the
happiness Of the boys. in finding
natural parents whom they do rot
know. is being considered.
Though Frau DOnk declares she
protested to nurses In 1920 that
they had given her the wrong baby,
1t was not until a few months ago
when she chanced to meet Helm
rich, son of Frau Beuth. on the
streets, and found his resemblance
TO her eldest son so striking that
she became convinced she had been
given the wrong baby at the hos
pital.
Blood tests, fingerprints, and fa-
cial features seem to prove Frau
Donk's judgment. If the court con-
firms the scientists judgment, the
Beuth family has agreed not to
challenge the decision.

Ojibway Indians Still
Stage "Hiawatha" Story

Canada has its own Oberammer-
gau. For many years the Ojibway
Indians of the Garden River pre-
serve, alongside the city of Sault
Ste. Marie, Ont, have been present
ing riverside stage version of
Longfellow's poem, "Hiawatha," in
their own language. The first per-
formance was put on at the Cana
dian 500 in honor of visit from
Longfellow's daughter. The poem
is glorification of the 500 area
and Lake Superior. The River Kwa-
sind was the st. Mary's on which
the 500 is built and the rapids men
toned in the poem are the 500 rap
IDS. The city's old Indian name,
Pawiting, appears in the poem. 1t
was the Ojibways who inspired the
poem and it is their legends and
stories which are told in it.
The 500 Indians presented the
play in several American cities
years ago, and once they appeared
in London, England. Every charac-
ter in the piece is taken by an Ojib-
way, and the whole play is given
in the Indian language. The action
of the play is explained to the au-
dience through loud speaker.

SAFETY COUNCIL
GIVES ADVICE
Many Tragic Deaths Ensue
From Careless Handling
of FIREARMS
CLEANING GUN DANGERS

With the opening of several
hunting seasons and others to open
shortly, many people will be clean
ing their guns and rifles and get
ting ready for some pleasant week
ends in the country. Many Della
wareans will soon go afield in pur-
suit of their favorite game. The
Delaware Safety Council issues a
list of hfe-saving cautions. Many
tragic deaths have ensued from the
careless handling of firearms and
not all of them occur on hunting
trips by any means. Many deaths
are reported each year in which
the coroner's record simply states,
Victim killed by accident while
cleaning his gun" Too many Del
awareans are killed or wounded
each year principally by their own
carelessness. Many others kill or
wound themselves in the pursuit of
game. Common among the causes
of fatalities and injuries are: Pull
ing guns through fences; gun
knocked down by dogs; uncased,
loaded guns in automobiles; acci-
dental firing of guns through bot
tom of boats hunters drowning
with sinking of boats; accidental
stopping up of barrels with dirt;
leaving distractions in barrels
cleaning rags, rods and the like;
carelessness in handling guns by
letting them explode with barrel
ends under water; shooting at
movements without seeing clearly
and firing at game without looking
beyond it in the line of fire When
carrying your gun in automobiles
never carry it put together 1t is
the unloaded gun here that shoots.
Don't shoot your gun after putting
it together until you have looked
through the barrel or barrels and
find it clear. Carry your gun over
the fence with you, keeping the
muzzle pointed away from yourself
and others. Never pull gun
through a fence. If it is a breech
loader open it before crossing.
Don't shoot at a movement 1t
may be a man, COW or other live
stock, besides, every sportsman not
only wants to see his game but hit
it in the vital spot. Don't shoot at
game until after you have assured
yourself that no other living Gre
ature, house, barn or other such
property, is in the line of fire.
When the hunting trip is over
make sure that your shells are re-
moved from the gun.

REHOBOTH LAKE CHANGE
Would Raise Water Level i'm Order
to End Stasnation There


Salt water, pumped from the
ocean, will soon convert Silver
Lake, lying between residential Re
hoboth and the Atlantic Ocean,
into a salt water lake. Owners of
cottages became aroused about the
condition of the lake and William
Morrison, Jr., and George Till, of
Wilmington, and others who have
cottages near the lake took up the
question of raising the level of the
lake. A petition signed by over so
property owners was presented to
the Town Commissioners, asking
that salt water be pumped in the
lake. 1t was stated that if the
raising of the level of the lake
proves satisfactory, arrangements
may be made to install pump and
have the usual level maintained
with salt water. During the
draught Of the past Summer and
due to seepage, the level of the
lake has become unusually low and
the water rather stagnant. Now
plans are being made to stock the
lake with fish and crabs. George
Shockley, of Rehoboth, was award
ed contract by the town commits
sioners to pump 100000 gallons
of salt water into the lake. The
lake covers about 35 acres of land
and by pumping at the rate Of 50,-
900 gallons an hour for 200 hours

 "Why, Muddy, you and Dad and everybody made an awful lot of noise last night-I couldn't go to sleep. You were laughing and talk ing loud and had the radio on and"
 Joseph, that will do. We are grown up and that's different. If your door had been closed, and you had settled down like good boy you wouldn't have heard us"
 Joseph thought a minute. Mud, if you had closed your door when you were sewing you wouldn't nave heard us, maybe, either" "Why Joseph Brown! You're getting-the idea of you talking to your mother like that! l think I shall tell your father"
 Joseph went of to ponder this. It was all very reasonable to him. He hadn't meant to talk back.
 Joseph, sit up at the table, and close your mouth when you cat.
 The little fellow jerked himself straight and brought his lips to- gether bunny-like over his food. Dads not sitting up. and he opens his mouth to chew lots or times'
 One day Joseph was called on the carpet about picking up his clothes in the morning.
 q went into your room and hon cstly it looked as though burglars had been in. Every dud you own ed. I think, was on the floor, your bureau drawers were out and the place looked terrible. You must put your things away better ana never leave even a pair or shoes lying about Hang your pajamas on your tree to air and put your soiled shirt in the hamper
 "I was in an awful hurry, Mud. and was late. I couldn't find that other checked stocking.
 Well, you simply must learn 10 be orderly. If you want to grow up to be a gentleman that 1s nc- cessary."
 The next day was Saturday and the gang had hollered early TOT Joseph to come on down ana get his sled. At ten they trooped In to get warm and up to Joseph's rooih' His mother had gone to early mar ket and her door was open. The room was in great confusion, nightclothes. shoes things iyins about everywhere. Over two chars were the evening dress and the dinner suit of last nights party.
