CHERBOURG, France, March g.
A second mysterious marine animal,
washed ashore at Greville, nine miles
northeast of Cherbourg, provided q
plethora of "sea monsters" today.

type as that which aroused the con-
sternation Of gaping Norman coastal
folk on the Querqueyille Rocks, l3
miles away. last week. The first was
described as having body IS feet

said, it must have brought its spouse

Neither has been identified def

However, Prof. Corbierre. eminent
scholar of natural history, took look
at the curiosity on the QuerQueville
Rocks and dubbed it a rare form of

operation, agreed to accept a two
year average, free of charge. If
the amount used totals more than
such two-year average, they
agreed to pay for such excess, and
expressed the wish to do so. This
action of mayor and council, unique
in town and church history, will
prove most helpful in assisting the
churches to meet their budget and
to carry on their valuable service

ROB HOME OF HI. b. CLARK
Thieves Break i'm House and Get
Away With Some Old JeWeIry

Thieves entered the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Harry B. Clark last week
every bureau drawer
but stealing only some old jewelry.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clark, who are
spending the winter in Whining
ton, discovered the robbery on
Saturday when they stopped at
their home for a few minutes to
get package. Entrance was
gained to the house by breaking
the window on the back porch.
A similarity in this robbery
with the recent one at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin S.
Mackenzie, is quite apparent, as
entrance was made in each case
by breaking a rear window and
undoing the latch and in each in
stance red matches were strewn
on the floor. This gives rise to
the opinion that these two rob-
berries was done by some one 10
cally. Police and detectives are
investigating, but are making no
statement at this time.

A Statewide credit pool of more

posal has met with much favor
among the members and may
eventually be adopted in lieu of all
other relief measures as a means
of carrying on a Statewide relief
program. The bill incorporates
the ideas of Frank H. Shakespeare,
a retired engineer of Dover, who
has given the finances of Delaware
much careful study and who be-

SWEET POTATO
CROP CONTROL
Can Become One of Kent
COunty's Chief Products By
Following Recommendation
TO COMBAT DIS E A S E

In connection with the program
for the growing of better sweet
potatoes and the reduction Of dis
eases in the seed bed and in the
field, the sweet potato growers in
Kent county received recently
from the Office of County Agent
Russell E. Wilson a circular letter
calling their attention to certain
recommended cultural practices
which have proven to be of import
ance to the production of this crop
in this section of the country. Ex-
periments and demonstrations
which have been conducted for a.
period of several years in Kent and
Sussex counties under the direc-
ton of the Delaware experiment
station have shown that these rec
concentrations are of practical
value in the growing of a clean
crop of sweets and also in the i'm
provement of the keeping qualities
in storage. Those farmers who
have been following these cultural
practices have greatly reduced the
disease prevalence on their farms,
and the sweets have come out OF
storage in better marketable con-
dition. For the past several years
the sweet potato growers in Kent
county have been reminded each
spring of the necessity of follow
ing such cultural recommendations
as ID earlier bedding and planting
to permit slip seed production and
earlier harvest, (2) use of seed
that is free from disease and which
has been properly disinfected, 81
change of soil in the seed bed every
season with clean sand, (4) proper
rotation of crops, 90 application
of about 1000 pounds per acre of
a 2-S-1O Fertilizer with manure to
insure a profitable yield, (6) set
plants on land that is known to be
free from disease, CD growing of
slip seed, 81 removal of all in
fected and inferior plants, 90 Sc
lection of only healthy hills for
seed, and 90 harvesting the crop
early and placing the sweets in
storage before October 10.

School Savings Started In

Being Torn Down
10000 SCHOOLS USING 1T

Few people realize that the
school savings plan which has
grown all over the United States,
had its inception right here in
Smyrna, in the school building now
being torn down to make way for
larger, better and more modern
school edifice. In the school room
of Miss Mary Spruance back in
the year 1890, nearly A years
ago, the plan of pupils having a
saving account started From the
meagre beginning among the little
pupils of Miss Spruance's room it
spread to other rooms and thence
thru the State and until now is
part of the plan in schools of prac-
tically every state of the union.
Recent reports are that the school

more than 10,89O schools in the

WRECKING OLD
SCHOOL HOUSE
Wings Have Almost Been
Raced To Be Followed
By Belfry Soon
RECALL SCHOOL DAYS

Smyrna's old High School Build
ing which has served the commun-
ity for fifty years, will soon be a
memory. The work of raZing it,
is going on as rapidly as possible.
Already the east and west wings
have been demolished to the
ground and by the end of the week,
the north and south wings will
have been demolished. The Hanly
Wrecking Company, a sub-con-
tractor of the Cantera Construc-
ton Company, the successful bid
ders for the 100000 additions to
be made to the new High School
Building, are carrying on the work
of razing the old school with a
force of experienced men. Some
time next week the belfry and
upper floors of the main building
will go. Are your initials carved
up in the belfry? Some former
school boys, now grown to matur-
ity and become captains of indus
try and men of affairs, may be re-
minded of their mischievous days
when it was against the rule to
mar school property, cut their in
itials there. Well, they will never
see them again. The belfry will
go with the rest of the building.
Supt. C. w. w. Schantz had asked
for and was given the bell and
weather vane which he hopes to
preserve in one way or another as
the only reminders of the old
school. The Hanly Wrecking Com
pany is salvaging everything OF
value in the building which they
are disposing of rapidly, as per
their advertisement in another
column. Among these are the
slate blackboards. Originally the
blackboards were of black paper
When the slate was removed from
the lower grade rooms there was
brought to view number OF
names on Honor Rolls, posted
years ago. Some of the names
were those of Eva and Grace Swim
ney, Harry Cotton, Bertha Smith
ers, Charles Stockly, Charles E
Williams and others. When they
came to the corner stone they put
it aside to be given another lasting
place in the foundation of the new
school when it is built.

high. Anglers and sein fishermen,

good seasons work if the runs are
large. Springlike weather for the

herring, and large numbers are
being caught. Years ago herring
were so thick at Delaware City
that thousands of the fish were
crushed every time a boat passed
through the canal locks. After a
boat had passed through the lock
canal employees would drag the
lock with a net to remove dead fish
