attention, but time does not per
init. We remarked at the outset,
Mr.. Governor" DR. Candee went
on. that this is a dedication more
than a formal opening. AS presi-
dent of the Old Age Welfare Com
mission I desire very sincerely to
take this opportunity Of saying
that the members Of this commits
sion have worked together in the
most harmonious manner possible
| cannot think of a commission
having more delightful and cor
dial association and cooperation,
and we declare that already the
members Of this commission have
dedicated themselves to this ideal,
this new conception, this work of
welfare for those who are needy
in our State. And we promise you
that as we dedicated ourselves to
this work to the very best of our
ability, we shall carry it on, striv-
ing for the achievement of this
ideal. If there are people in the
State of Delaware who need the
helping hand, who are homeless
and perhaps friendless, who are
invalided and cannot be properly
cared for, or have no means of
providing that care, if there are
any such, without regard to color,
to creed, or political afficiation of
any kind, if there are any such
that can come within the doors of
this Welfare Home, we desire to
serve them and in the name of the
State. We are glad, your Honor,
to hand over this completed build
ing to you and we pledge you to
do our part in the carrying out
and the meeting Of the response
bility that has been laid upon u.s."

ALFRED /. DUPONT PRAISED
UnfurIs the Flag While He GaEe
and Promises Radios

To Alfred 1. DUPONT the dedica-
tion of the State Welfare Home
marked the elimination of a life's
dream. OF all the throng, there
was no man who felt more keenly
the Importance and significance of
the dedication as Mr.. DUPONT. His
vision of a Statewide project to
care for the needy aged persons
was a vital factor in the decision
to construct the home and abolish
the county almshouses. He is re-
garded as the father" of the old
age pension and INDECENT relief
system now undertaken by Della
ware. Mr.. duPont's participation
in the dedication of the home was
a modest and genuine gesture. At
ter Governor Buck had accepted
the building in the name of the
State of Delaware, Mr.. dupont
stepped out of the throng in front
of the monumental portico of the
home entrance. Escorted by John
S. Rossell of Wilmington, who had
helped in drafting Of the welfare
bill and DIR. Candee, Mr.. DUPONT
walked down the path from the
portico to a flag pole he had given
the home. He glanced up and
then pulled string. An Ameri-
can flag fiutered out of paper
bag and the Kent County Band
struck up the national anthem. 1t
was the moment of moments for
Mr.. DUPONT. The home was now
dedicated and presented to the
State. His long hoped for dream
was realized. Mr.. DUPONT has of
fered TO erect a bronze tablet at
the home bearing all the names of
the members of the Legislature
which passed the act making the
home possible. the name of Gov
ernor Buck, the names OF the
members of the Welfare Home
Commission and the names of the
present members of the Legisla-
ture. He also offered to make a
survey at his own expense for the
installation of a radio system IN

secretary of the commission, said
the body would be delighted to ac-
cept the offer. Mr.. Metten said

Harry Hurd, 4-year-old son of

study the tremendous advance we
have made in welfare work since
the days of Dickens and Reade
Chance plays large part in the
lives of all of us and with equal
opportunity many a man at 65
might be self-supporting who is
not. Statistics published by the
Government show that Of one hun
dred men at age twenty-five, after
forty years have passed, thirty-six
have died, three are wealthy, sew
en- self-supporting and the remain
ing fifty-four absolutely and who'll
ly dependent upon public or pri-
vate charity. These figures pre-
sent a sad picture of our boasted
civilization and it is to meet these
conditions that homes such as this
have gradually come into being.
Here old age can now look for
ward not only to material neces-
sites but to consideration and
spiritual uplift. Here those who
have borne the sings and arrows
of outrageous fortune can find a
refuge of peace, haven of hope
and instead of a place to live, a
home in its true sense. Here pride,
the decent pride Of decent men
and women, is preserved to them
who call this place home; conf
dent Of the future their souls can
rest in peace. And now on behalf
Of the State of Delaware, I, as
Governor, accept this building
from the Commission whose care
full and painstaking work in its
construction has earned them the
thanks and gratitude of all our
people. May this building under
God have boundless possibilities
for service and mark for us all a
new and richer day of mans nu-
manity to men" The dedicatory
prayer was made by Bishop Philip
Cook, of the Episcopal Diocese Of
Delaware.

STATE SAFETY
COUNCIL NEWS
According to Safety Council
Reckless Driving is Not q
Demonstration of Skill
BE CAREFUL AT DUSK

According to the Delaware
Safety Council man may have a
mechanically perfect car but be-
cause of careless driving he may
cause an accident that results in
serious injury or death to himself
or others. Reckless driving is not
a demonstration of skill. A mo-
ment or two saved today by reck-
less speeding is not efficiency for
speeding tomorrow may result in
smash that will lay up the car
for several days and the operator
for several months. Hurrying to
get ahead of a train, a street car,
or another vehicle saves only a
moment or two at the ultimate
destination, and again is not
worth the price. There is too
much danger of accident The
best drivers are especially careful
at dusk or twilight. There is then
neither enough daylight nor suf-
ficient artificial light to make OBJ
jects distinguishable at ordinary
distances. Slow up for all turns
in the road. Blind corners are
dangerous. When it is impossible
to see what is coming from
around the corner, be prepared to
stop, sound horn a short distance
from the corner. Don't zig-zag
from one side of the street to the
other. Remember that there are
ruts or rough spots at the bottom
of nearly every hill. Hitting these
spots at too high speed may
cause the driver to lose control of
his car. Drive slowly at bridges
and at culverts. A moments in
attention may throw your car
against the structure. When at
tempting to overtake and pass an
other vehicle going in the same
direction, start turning out at
least IS feet to the rear. IF you
get up too close, your view of the
road ahead is obstructed and you
may turn directly in front of an
other car coming towards you.
When you have passed car, do
not cut back again into the road
nor slow down too soon. When
operating an automobile do not
attempt to carry on a conversa-
tion with other passengers. Small
children should preferably sit in
the rear of the car. They should
never be held in or between the
arms of the driver. Safe driving
demands your full and UNDIVIDED
attention.
