THIS is the sixth of a series of

When your hand contains two
illnesses, you should plan the play
so that, when you take one f1nesse
and it should fail, it will not be
necessary for you to take the other.
In other words, make one flnesse
eliminate the other.
It is true that Jnis is not always
possible, but you would be surprised
at the great number of times that
this really is the case.

STATE SAFETY
COUNCIL NEWS
The Danger From Skidding
and the Causes To Be
Avoided
DRIVE WITH MUCH CARE

The Delaware Safety Council de-
clares that to the average motor
list a skid is a skid but avoiding
skidding is often a matter of ap-
preciating the fact that there are
five distinct kinds. The braking
skid is the most common. Next,
and often a combination with the
first, IS the steering skid. The
driver steers SO carelessly or in
competently as to cause the back
of the car to skid round to the
front. A power skid results when
too much engine speed is applied
to the car, the wheels spinning
round without normal traction.
Then, there is traction skid
which results when tires are too
smooth or when roads are icy or
oily. A skid often overlooked is
that produced by misalignment of
the front wheels. Many cars that
owners consider skidders could be
made safe and comfortable
through a half-hour's careful ad-
justment of the front wheel toe
in. There are laws other than
man-made laws which govern driv-
ing at this time of the year. Their
requirements are far more rigid
than any on the statute books
and a penalty for violating them
is often death-swift and sudden
death. From this penalty there is
no appeal. When rain or snow is
in the air and roads are covered
with ice or frost, these conditions
simply shout "Slow Down" There
is unusually no policeman on hand
to make you obey but instead
there is a ditch or a tree or a tele-
graph pole that will not only slow
you down in hurry but also pro-
nounce immediate sentence upon
you for violation of the weather
laws. Think it over, Mr.. Motor
ist. Defy the weather laws and
you are at the mercy of the ele-
ments.

NOTED GERMAN
CASTLE JAILS
Castles Once the Glory of
Empire Now Jails Hitler
Opponents
STORY OF BY-GONE DAYS

Dresden.-Germany's medieval cas-
ties with their awe-inspiring strong
holds are again serving as prisons,
this time for the political opponents
Of the Hitler regime. The fact is adj
mitted in the official organ of the
Hitler party, Voelkische Boebach-
ter.
Castle Hohnstein in Saxony, one
of Germany's proudest and Oldest
castles, was converted into a prison
for political prisoners by the pres
ent power holders. Perched high
upon steep and rocky eminence,
with its drawbridges and heavy
gates closely guarded by storm
troopers, the castle offers no chance
for the alleged foes of the Hitlerite
state to make their escape.
Once, in bygone days, the naughty
rObber Baron Won A1ichelsberg pill
LACED and ransacked the surround
ing country from this impregnable
stronghold. In 1853 Castle Holm
stein passed into the possession OF
Hink0 Berka Won der Duba, a pow
erful feudal lord whose landed prop
erty stretched far into Bohemia. In
1443 the castle was purchased by
the Victim family, electors of Sax
ony. The Saxon rulers made it one
of their favorite retreats, hunting
deer and fishing salmon in the noun
famous vicinity.
In 1857 its glamour dimmed some
what when the proud castle was
converted into a reformatory. After
the World war, in 1924, it was
turned into an inn.
Its beautiful location, in the midst
of the sO-called Saxon Switzerland,
made it a favorite travelling ground
for youthful mixers. In its hun
dred bedrooms the castle could put
up 500 guests for the night.
With everything in Germany be-
ing cO-ordinated with the Hitler
regime. number of German castles
once owned by feudal lords were
taken over by the Nazis. Thus Cas-
tie Neuenburg on Unstrut was oc-
cupied by the Hitlerites Fighting
League for German Culture. Castle
Sachsenburg, near Zschopau in
Saxony. has been converted into
school for National Socialist wom-
en- leaders, and Hohnstein became
prison.

MODERN SCHOOL REPORTS
Show to Parents Their Childs
Standing in Studies and Character

Standing in Studies and Character
School report cards, like virtual
ly everything else, have been mod
ernized. The old report card was
supposed to convey to parents some
idea about the child's scholarship.
Of course it would be very difficult
for anyone to explain what 81 in
English means. The report card
also frequently gave the relative
rank of the pupils, thus encourag-
ing them to beat the other fellows
record instead of improving his
own record. The report card used
in the Delaware schools recognizes
the fact that character and cit
izenship are more important than
scholarship, important as that is.
Courtesy, promptness, dependable
ity, cheerful cooperation, self-re-
lance, initiative, thrift, good
craftsmanship, school service, self
control, good workmanship and
posture are some of the elements
of character and citizenship which
appear on the report card. We
do not use figures to mark these
traits. Dependability marked 70
certainly would not mean much.
The modern tendency is to use de-
scriptive terms instead of figures
in marking report card. Della
ware uses 'cX', &C" and 'sP" in
marking qualities desirable for
good citizenship and school sue
cess. The card explains that &C"
indicates qualities which the pupil
possesses or is developing notice
ably; tx" indicates qualities less
developed, which the pupil should
strengthen; "P" indicates qualities
which the pupil should especially
try to improve. The regular school
subjects, reading, writing, spelling,
ETC., appear on the card after
character and citizenship. They
are given marks which mean ex-
cellent, good, fair, poor and very
poor. This is as far as it is wise
to go. We can not be progress
sive" too fast The Delaware
school report card is sane, modern
and is moving in the right direc-
ton.

SNOW INCREASES ACCIDENTS
G. @. Reynolds Gives Set of Rules
for Autoists to Prevent Skidding

Il
The unusual slippery condition
of the roads last week resulted in
g, number of accidents to autorlo-
biles and causes c. c. Reynolds,
Superintendent of State Police, to
set out practical set of rules to
prevent skidding which every
automobile driver should remem-
Der. Motorists will prevent fatal
tiles, injuries, and car damage if
they will step more lightly on the
gas when there is snow or ice on
the highways. Keep in gear. Rear
wheels are less likely to skid if
they are kept turning by the mo-
tor Apply brakes gently Don't
apply the brakes to the rear
wheels harder than they can take
them, or they will slip. A little
slip is a young skid. Don't shift
gears unless you must. Trouble
may follow if you have to shift
gears on a hill and the road is
icey. Put on chains, all around,
if it is icey. A pair of chains cost
less than a damaged vehicle. Pay
full attention to the business of
driving. Handle everything in an
easy manner-gas throttle, steer
ing, brakes-no sudden moves if
skids are to be avoided. Last week
there were a number of skidding
accidents which could have been
prevented by more careful driving
