Delaware's liquor control act
frowns upon the gentle and congen-
ial art of treating" While the law
does not forbid treating" it does
not believe it ought to be done or en-

The passing of prohibition re-
moves the clamp on the alcoholic
content of beer, much to the delight
of beer drinkers. These epicures OF
beer have been chafing at the bit be-
cause of the low alcoholic content
of beer. They say 32 per cent is not
sufficient to make them mellow and
furthermore, that they have to drink
too much to even get an intimation

burden of many a liquor dealer in
Delaware after December 6, when
any one wants to put on party and
tries to buy more than one bottle of
whiskey at time.
The Delaware Liquor Control Act
specifies that anyone, 81 years or
over, who wishes to purchase for
personal use more than one bottle
of liquor must have personal Ii
cense, issued by the Commission,
costing 81 and good for year. This
same license is good for the pur-
chase of more than "a half bottles
of beer or for IL bottles of wine.
The act Furthermore makes it IL
legal for a retail liquor dealer to
sell more than one bottle of liquor
to any one who has no license to
purchase.

WORD IS AWAITEI

The State Liquor Commission with
offices in Wilmington will start in
the middle of this month to receive
applications for liquor licenses.
The licenses will not be effective
until after December or 6, or when
prohibition is repealed.
A. ]. Taylor, secretary Of the Liq-
uor Commission said Saturday that
he will not wait until Secretary OF
State Hull issues a statement to the
effect that the 18th Amendment has
been repealed. He will say the word
"go" when the national news SER
vices announce that SO or more
states have by convention ratified
the repeal of the 18th Amendment.
While other states are still debat-
ing what system they will use in
controlling and dispensing liquor,
Delaware has her immediate post
prohibition future well laid out and
planned.
Pierre S. DUPONT, State Liquor
Commissioner, had alternatives:
Either private licensing system or
Stale stones and warehouses.
Alr. DUPONT has definitely decided
to launch Delaware's course in tue
post. prohibition era with the private
licensing system, but with the un-
derstanding that if it does not work
out successfully, it will be very lit
tie trouble to switch to the State
control system.
Under the private licensing system
all liquor imported into Delaware
will be consigned to the importer
but in care of the Delaware Liquor
Commission. Agents of the commits
sion will then inspect the imported
goods and see to it that the State
receives its tax on the liquor before
it goes directly into the hands Of the
importer.
Regarding the selection of the pri-
vate licensing system, Mr.. dupont
has stated that at the present he can
give no good reason for advocating

GUNNER is FINED SIS FOR
SHOOTING WOODS DUCK
E. c. Tingle OF GumbOrO, First
ViOlatOr of New Law

The first arrest made by game
wardens of this State for violating
the law that prohibits the shooting
of woods ducks was made last Sat
urday afternoon when E. c. Tingle of
Gumboro, was arrested on that
charge by Game Wardens Mcgee and
Nelson He was fined $5 and cost
by Magistrate Burton, of Millsboro.
The Game Commission of this
State is particularly anxious that this
law is observed. The birds, that
were once plentiful in Delaware,
have been reduced to such a num-
ber that they are seldom seen. The
commission reports that the birds
are slowly coming back and it is
hoped in few years, with the OBJ
servance of the ducking law, that
gunners will again be able to shoot
woods duck in Delaware.

INSTALLMENT III.

HE next few days trying ones for
Ted. When he left the locker room
on that Friday afternoon, he hurried
home and buried his nose-and his
thoughts-n his books Since he
was sacrificing foot ball for his job
and bis school work, he was determined tnat
the sacrifice would bring results. Those grades
Of his were goinG to c"rle up. and come up
fast!
He studied again on SD, urday morning, but
in the afternoon he sat in the stands and
watched North High, the team that he had
deserted 60 down to defeat before Marshal
after a desperate struggle that ended with the
score 60. Only too well did Ted realize what
his absence from the lineup meant to the North
High team On two different occasions he
knew that he could have turned breaks into
touchdowns when his substitute failed
Nor was Ted the only who felt that way
The stands had been amazed when he did not
appear on the field and rumors flew thick and
fast He had been badly hurt-he had been
thrown of the team for low grades-he had
family. Ted was popular with the student
body, and nobody guessed that he had given
up foot ball for "a mere job
But it was not long before the true Situa-
ton was known to everybody, and Ted soon
found out what it was going to mean to his
popularity. That night the customers who
came to the Sweet Shop called no congratula-
tions to the foot ball hero behind the counter.
Instead they regarded him with cool stares
and stiff no@e
A ND one boy, Jack Daniels, paused as he
was about to leave the store in the COM
pany Of another student and two girls. He
pointed q finger at Jack.
Ladies and gentlemen" he said mockingly.
"allow me to introduce the only fellow in
captivity who would rather be a soda jerker
than . foot ball star"
Ted felt the blood rush to his face, and the
Eznile that he contrived was sckly in the ex-
tren1e. As he turned back to his work, he
heard the mocking laughter Of the group, and
something that sounded suspiciously like
TRAITOR or gutter"
Ted's best friends, of course, took It differ
emily. Tom Bronsk stopped in to see him,
lingering q bad cut over his eye, . symbol Of
the afternoons defeat. Tom told him how
tough It was to lose him. but said he under
stood.
'"The coach does, too, and 50 do most Of the
fellows" he went on
But Ted knew, in spite Of Toms words, that
there had been plenty Of head-shaking among
how much this job meant to Ted. II his
parents had been in very poor circumstances,
they would have understood, but they knew
that Toms earnings were not necessary to keep
his family from poverty AS for college and
medical career that was far in the dim and
misty future. How could a fellow let down
his team and his school for anything as in
definite As that7
and It hurt. But he had made his decision,

they did not praise him unduly. HIS father
simply said:

they did not praise him unduly. HIS father
simply said:

right but If you had decided the other way,

FEELING that his companionship was not
greatly desired by his classmates. Ted
found it easy to devote his afternoons after
school 70 his studies. The going was difncult
at first for he had poor start In all his sub
jects, and he had to retrace his steps and lay
. foundation. But his teachers helped him,
and within two weeks his class room work
was showing definite improvement
At once he began toying with the idea Of
going back out for foot ball But he knew it
wouldn't work. Some fellows, he knew, could
have carried the program successfully, but
studies came fairly hard for Ted, and he
couldn't get them without real application.
In the meantime the hole in the North
High lineup which he had left proved great
handicap to the team. North High got only
tie with supposedly weaker opponent in its
next game, and its third contest without Ted
was another defeat.
On the Saturday night following that game
Shop and told Ted he would like to talk to him.
Ted knew DR.. Eumphries only slightly. He
had high standing in town as surgeon, was
q foot ball fan who attended North Highs
games whenever possible, and had served with
a base hospital unit in France during the war.
Ted knew these things but that was ALL and
so he surprised and somewhat puzzled
at the doctors request.
THERE only a few customers IN the
store at the time, so Ted stepped back to
one of the booths and took seat opposite the
doctor, who lost no time in explaining his visit.
IT saw the game this afternoon, and missed
you from the lineup" he said.
"Yes" replied Ted briefly st quit several
weeks ago"
81 wondered what was the matter. and made
some inquiries" DR.. Humphries went on.
Heard couple Of rather uncomplimentary
stories Didn't believe them, because I knew
your uncle in France, and also know your
father. So when ran into your father on the
street tonight asked him about them"
"Oh," said Ted
Suddenly DR.. Humphries' hand shot across
the table and gripped Teds. and the surgeons
piercing eyes cleaned. Listen, boy" he said
warmly, you've got the stuff in you. Lots Of
kids think they want to be surgeons. Most
of them haven't got the guts-the moral cour-
age, to be more polite-to stick it out. It's Q
long, tough drag before you get anywhere, and
you have to have an overpowering love for
your work. combined with all sorts Of persever-
ance to last"
II know" said Ted. That's why couldn't
give up this job"
DR.. Humphries sat back in the bench OF the
booth. and a friendly grin lit up his strong
face. "You could give it up If gave you q
better one, couldn't you? One that would let
you play foot ball and still have time to study"
