that inlet closed, but has been the
owner of considerable acreage in
the coastal area between the In
dian River Inlet site and the Mary
land-Delaware State Line" If that
inlet could be kept dug out, the
salt water would come clear up to
Frankford, and that would cause
more salt to be in the atmosphere,
and salt is coming to be recognized
as one of the best astringents. Be
sides that, the land around here
would be better drained, and the
dampness wouldn't be so great as
it is now" Petitions to have the
inlet permanently opened, put in
public places throughout Sussex
County, are attracting widespread
attention and many signers, from
the ranks of sportsmen, shipping
interests, and those who made
their livings from the waters of
Rehoboth and Indian River bays
before the inlet became clogged.

HIGHWAY EMPLOYING 2I5e
Motorists Urged to Avoid Slippery
Roads When Driving

The State Highway Department
had 33 contracts under way last
week, employing a total of 2156
men. These men are employed by
the contractors on the different
projects in addition to their own
organizations. Although there are
several Public Works Administra-
ton contracts under way, so far
this year, the Highway Depart
ment has pulled much of the re-
employment load and in Sussex
and Kent counties virtually all of
the work furnished the unemploy-
ed has ben supplied by this de-
partment. Several more contracts
are expected before the first of the
year and it is the intention of the
State Highway Department to do
everything possible to keep as
many men working this winter as
the weather makes possible. Mo
torists from the South, crossing ON
the ferry at Norfolk will save time
and find comfort and safety on the
route north through Delaware. Mo-
torists are urged to be cautious of
fallen leaves which are apt to
cause skidding, especially if the
day is wet.

Alfred l. DUPONT Makes Per.
sOnal Gift For Addition to

STATE BOARD ACCEPTS

An offer made by Alfred 1. drl-
Pont of Wilmington, to finance the
construction of an eight-room ad-
dition to the Alfred I. dupont
School, near Talleyville, at cost
of $85,00O was accepted by the
State Board of Education at its
meeting at Dover on Tuesday af-
ternoon of last week Work will
be started ON the new building as
soon as plans can be prepared. It
is hoped to have it ready for occu-
pancy at the beginning of the term
next September. The present
school, which was built by Mr.. du-
Pont at cost of S145,OOO and do
mated by him to the State, has
eight rooms, an auditorium and a
cafeteria. There are nearly 400
pupils attending, which number is
more than the original building
can adequately provide for 1t is
Mr. duPont's purpose in building
the addition to relieve this over
crowded condition and at the same
time make possible the develop
ment of Junior high school pro-
gram for the district. The eight
additional rooms will provide for
maximum of 300 students, bring
ing the total attendance to nearly
800. In addition The project will
furnish employment for approx
mately 100 skilled workmen thru
out the winter At a meeting with
the Greenwood school building
commission contracts for the con-
structon of the new school at
Greenwood were awarded as fol-
lows: General contract, Northeast
ern Construction Company, of Bal
timore, S5S, ,295; heating, plumbing

Brother, of Philadelphia, SIT,
electrical work, Mitchell Company,
Of Philadelphia, S3,939 Although
bids on the new school at George
town had ben tabuiated and the
board was prepared to make the
awards, action was deferred due to
a protest from the code authorities
over the failure Of one firm to
comply with some technical pro-
vision of the code relating to the
heating and ventilating industry.
The board decided to hold up all
the contracts until the protest has
been settled and they will take up
the question with officials of the

Theater Guild,
10 Years Old,
Still Popular
New Program Promises to
Be in Keeping With High
Standard.
BY PAUL HARRISON
NEA Service stan Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The Thea
ter Guild officially began its seven
teenth year of life. And in that
fact alone there is comfort for play
goers, who may know that the new
season is fairly launched, and that
the stern guardian of the drama is
not going to fritter away its talent
on such frail little advertisements
as have been cluttering several
stages during the past month.
The guild is a champion of the
thoughtful theater, and has a way
of gathering under its wing many
of the finest authors and performers.
1t produced Shaw for years, and
then O'Neill. And now, in Maxwell
Anderson, it seems to have the
writer of the most stirring prose of
the times.
After Mary of Scotland" such a
sensation last year, he has turned
to American history, the Valley
Forge, for theme. It's on the guild
list for this season, as are George
Gershwin'S musical version of
"Porgy," trilogy by Virgil Geddes,
a play by S. N. Behrman, and sew
eral others.
Philip Moeller is a director who
never seems TO falter. The staging
of Lee Simonson and other Guild
men is acknowledged to have con-
tributed much to the production
standards of the entire American
theater.
AS for performers, there is no for
getting that the Guild developed
Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne.
Also that it gave George M. Cohan
and Helen Hayes their finest parts.
Ruth Gordon now is appearing in
her third role with the organization.
And Helen Wesley, one of the
founders and member of the board
of managers, has been in at least
one of it's shows each season.
1t would be Glying the Guild to
say that its current production, "A
Sleeping Clergyman" is a great
play. But it certainly is a show Of
substance and courage, and provoca-
tive to thought. It's the sort of ag-
gressive enterprise in which the or
ganization should, and frequently
does, engage.
Some other plays have come and,
very likely, soon will be gone. "Or-
der, Please" is comedy with muir
DER which has pleasant tone and
a good deal of gentle humor. But it
is feeble narrative and in spots the
tactics seem to have been borrowed
from the Christie comedies.
