CHRISTMAS SEAL
HEAD SPEAKS TO
CLUBS, SCHOOL
Ladies OF Century Club
Hear Miss Bissell, AS
Guests OF Faculty.
PUPILS SERVE TEA
All Who Can Are Urged
To Aid Benefit Seal
Movement.

On Monday, Miss Emily P. Bissell,
of Wilmington, originator of the
Christmas seal idea, in connection
with the anti-tuberculosis fight, and
Doyle Hinton, executive secretary of
the Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety, were guests of the Milford Ro-
tary Club at a luncheon at the Hotel
Windsor.
At 1880 o'clock on the same day,
Miss Bissell and Mrs. Hinton were
guests at the high school, where
Miss Bissell addressed the student
body. At the close of the address,
Miss Bissell, Mr.. Hinton and the
ladies of the New Century Club who
had been invited to attend the meet
ing by Mr.. Shilling, superintendent
of school, were invited to the home
economics department, where the
girls, under the direction of Miss
Baker and Miss Conoway, instruc-
tors in domestic science, served an
informal tea.
The addresses of Miss Bissell con-
tanned much valuable information.
concerning the fight against tuber-
losis especially in connection with
the school child, and greater por-
tion of the addresses are given in
connection with this article with the
permission of Miss Bissell, who has
so gallantly devoted or should we
say consecrated her life to the fur
therance of the anti-tuberculosis
movement, and now after q years
of tireless effort Miss Bissell has
been rewarded by the knowledge
that not only in our little State of
Delaware, but throughout the entire
civilized world people purchase
Christmas seals to help the unfortu-
mates who suffer or are threatened
with the ravages of the white plague.
In the past three years there has
been an annual average of 1S9
deaths from tuberculosis in this
State and there are in all 105 eff
fective beds, IS in Brandywine and
20 at Edgewood A three year aver
age has been used in computing the
death figure because 1880 gave an
low figure, and 1881

PICK GROUPS ON
DITCHING RIGHTS
Director COrkran OF Sussex Mosquito
Camp Orders Drainage Survey

Various local groups have been ap-
pointed by w. C. Corkran, director
of the Delaware Hosquito Control
Commission, to secure permission OF
land owners in Sussex county for the
digging of drainage bitches on their
property, as the preliminary step to-
ward the eradication of mosquitoes
in the State.
N. P. Newhouse, of Rehoboth, is
chairman of the committee in that
section: Joseph L. Marshall, of the
Lewes area, and C. E. Harrington, of
the Milford area. The two camps
which are TO be established by the
u. S. Government from Delaware
boys employed in the Citizens Con-
servation Camps, will be located at
Lewes and Slaughter Beach.
The permission of all land owners
is the first step in this mosquito con-
troll work, as the plans for the lay
ing out of the bitches must be made
in advance, and all owners of ad-
jacent properties aprised of the pro-
posed work, so that the procedure
will not be held up after the work
gets under way. Many property own
ers have already agreed to the pro-
gram and readily give their consent
to the digging of bitches not only in
the interest of mosquito eradication,
but as benefit to their acreage, be-
lieving the drainage will improve
the growth of hay marsh and do
away with stagnant water in the tidal
marshes.
Land owners not yet reached have
been asked by Mr.. Corkran to assist
in the work by getting in touch
with the Representatives in charge
of this part of the project in their
districts.

SHORE MURDER
Worcester County Off
cials See Negro Execut-
ed; No Demonstration.
KILLED FAMILY OF A
Seventy Policemen And A
Squad OF Detectives On
Hand AT Execution.

Following a two-year legal battle
which was carried to the highest
court in the land and even to the
President himself, Fuel Lee, 6S-
year-old Virginia Negro, paid with
his life on the gallows in the Mary
land Penitentiary at 1918 o'clock
last Friday morning for the murder
on October 10, 1881, Of Greene X.
Davis, Taylorsville farmer. The
Negro had been indicted also for the
murder of Mrs. Taylor and her two
daughters, but was tried on only the
one charge.
The execution required only eight
minutes and there were no demon
strations although a heavy police
guard had been thrown around the
prison. The State took charge Of
the body for burial.
The prison chaplain said Lee main
tanned his innocence to the end.
Lee was hanged before a closely
gathered group of about fifty men,
guards and officials in the Maryland
Penitentiary.
The Negro went to his death with
out saying a word-and bearing the
same expressionless mien that mark
ed him throughout his two trials for
the murder of the Taylorsville (Md)
farmer.
Among those who stood in the si-
lent crowd in the narrow, high cell
inged whitewashed death house were
four police officials from Worcester
county, the scene of the killing of
Davis and his wife and two daugh-
tehs. These men-Sheriff Wilmer

BETTER PBEEET
RAISING PROJECT
Project Being Conducted On Seven-
teen Kent County Farms

This is the second year in which
the project for the raising Of better
and healthier pullets has been in
cluded in the program of work in
each county of this State, as all
poultrymen realize that in order to
raise profitable egg producers it Is
necessary that careful attention be
given to the care and management
of their fiocks which are the foun-
dation of a successful poultry busi-
ness.
In order that records might be Sc
cured in regard to the results of
this project a survey is being made
of representative poultry farms in
each of the three counties by the
county agents in cooperation with
H. s. Palmer, extension poultryman
of the University of Delaware, and
H. R. Baker, poultry disease pathol-
ogist of the State Board of Agricul-
ture, and this information will be
presented to the poultry raisers
when this project has been complet-
ed for this year.
In Kent county this project this
year is being conducted on seven
teen farms, and County Agent Rus
sell E. Wilson reports that these
records to date include 21,605 baby
chicks started, with loss Of 1866
chicks, or 10.4 per cent, during the
first eight weeks. From the stand
point Of diseases, this survey indi-
Gates that no bronchitis was present
in these focks, but coccidiosis was
reported in eleven fiocks.
Within the next few weeks this
survey will be completed to include
the number of pullets raised from
these chicks, and the general condi-

CHICAGO, February ga fit of jeal-
ousy was believed by Investigators, they
said today, to have prompted Miss Vera
Hayburn. 25-year-old unemployed ste
nographer to leap to her death from
the thirty-third floor of the Medinah
Athletic Club Building after a visit to
a night club with Albert Russell
Erskine, jr., "a adopted son of the
president of the Studebaker Corpora
tion, motor car manufacturer.
The young woman's body broken and
frozen, was found by a chambermaid
early yesterday, lying on a ledge eight
stories below Erskine's room.
Accompanied Friend.
Erskine told police Miss Hayburn had
been his companion at the Chez Paree
Night Club Saturday evening. After
the festivities, he said. he had placed
he in taxi, presumably bound for
her home, and that he then spent the
night az the home of a friend, A. G.
Atwater, son Of a wealthy manufac-
turing executive and brother-in-la of
Philip K. Wrigley, official of the Wrig-
ley Chewing Gum Co.
Erskine was not held. His story was
corroborated by Atwater. who was
among the friends who accompanied
him to the night rendezvous.
Lieut.. Patrick B. O'Connell, who con-
Quoted the investigation, said Erskine's
recount Of a misunderstanding which
arose at the night club when Miss Hay
burn resented his attentions to another
girl in the party offered q plausible
solution to the affair.
Lieut.. O'Connell expressed the opinion

what she considered an affront and
that, not finding him there, she became

Club said he had taken her to the floor
